Steel Drummers for hire in Cardiff
Latest reviews of our Steel Drummers in Cardiff

"Pan Man Gen was absolutely amazing! He completely elevated my party making it into a magnificently memorable day. What a musical talent he is and what a voice! Without exception, all of my guests were full of praise for Pan Man Gen. We had the best day ever. I am delighted I chose him and would not hesitate to recommend Pan Man Gen. Friendly and professional he kept a channel of communication going between us, making sure my musical taste was covered and he even learnt a new song because it was my favourite. I was nervous as I hadn’t seen him perform live and knew he was travelling for over 3 hours to get to the venue. There was absolutely no need to worry! On the day, he arrived on time and his relaxed vibe put us all at ease. He has a beautiful singing voice balanced perfectly with his skilled steel pan playing. As the party got into its stride a couple of friends even decided to join in on the mic! My guests had a very special day I’m sure they will all remember and I am very grateful to Pan Man Gen for making it all happen. PS I have lots of videos of the party if anyone wants to see more of Pan Man Gen in action. "

"Hired Xotic for a 50th birthday party and they literally made the night. Music was fantastic, brilliant repertoire, and Vanessa, Roger and Flasha were an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to finish and particularly on the day itself. Feel lucky to have found these guys and really recommend them for any kind of occasion. "

FAQs about hiring Steel drummers in Cardiff
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
Can any steel drummer play my favourite song?
Professional steel drummers will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that steel drummers may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the steel drummer's song list on their Encore profile.
How much time do steel drummers take to set up?
Your steel drummer will usually arrive about an hour or so before their performance begins to set up and get settled before they start playing. To avoid any delays, make sure the performance space is ready for the steel drummer prior to their arrival.
My venue has asked for the performer’s PLI & PAT inspection certificates. What are these?
PLI stands for Public Liability Insurance. This insurance covers damage to another person or their property (it is also known as third party insurance). As many of our steel drummers are members of the Musician's Union, they are already covered by PLI up to £10 million. PAT stands for portable appliance testing. Most of our steel drummers will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
