These guys are phenomenal! They played our wedding this weekend, playing Oye Come Va as we walked down the aisle and entertained guests all the way through the reception. I couldn't recommend them more! So professional, so friendly and so much fun!!! Thank you again Flavio and The Sugar Kings!!!

“ I would like to thank ‘The Sugar Kings’ most sincerely for playing such a big part in making Graham’s party an extremely memorable and happy event. We and our guests were bowled over by the music both before and after dinner – you are all superb musicians and you do everything with such flair and enthusiasm.

We hope to hear lots more of your music in the future.

With kind regards,

“Thanks guys for the wonderful job you did at the ‘Schillings’ event. The marketing team were so pleased and thought it the perfect way to thank their clients for another great year. Your performance was pure style - they just loved it.”

Message from Caroline Loftus, entertainment co-ordinator at the OXO Tower Restaurant, Bar and Brasserie, regarding function for Celebrity Law Firm, ‘Schillings’.


“Thank you Sugar Kings. The client appreciated your versatility from the instrumental six piece with drinks followed by the laid back trio during dinner and the full seven piece with vocals for the show. Brilliant work!”
