If you’re searching for a band that delivers more than just music, Pelagos Entertainment is the act to book.

Nikos, the standout performer of the group, is an artist of rare talent. His voice, capable of both powerful crescendos and tender nuances, has a hypnotic quality that can captivate any audience. Additionally, his expertise with the lyra brought an authentic Greek vibe to the festivities that was simply enchanting.

Paige ElizabethWe had Pelagos Entertainment for our wedding and it was by far the best decision we've made! They brought such excitement to the dance floor and enchanted the whole room! Greek and non-Greeks alike took part in cultural dances; it was such a hoot! They really do make music come to life!! The smoke machine was such an added bonus to make us feel as though we were dancing on the clouds for our first dance. They really are top notch - and had the upmost professionalism and respect for us as a couple! They always were available to meet through Zoom, and made sure to accommodate our vision for our special day We would absolutely recommend!!! 10/10
Elle Anastasiou PesanteFantastic musicans! Wonderful people! Book them today. Don't waste another minute looking for anyone else. They play any/all types of Greek music. They are great to work with..They go the extra mile to accommodate your individual requests. We have booked them for multiple events and have seen them play at many others. They are simply the best. They listen to what you do and do not want, and aim to please. They play to the crowd and respect what the host asks for. There's no long intro killing time before getting to the excitement (unless you want that). There's no ego dictating what they will or will not play. There's no nickle & diming to squeeze more out of their contract. They are purely skilled, talented, dedicated, passionate musicians who aim to please. We have worked with many bands over the years in varying capacities (personal events, church events, dance group events, and so on). Pelagos is my band of choice because they deliver exactly what we ask of them, without having to ask twice and without breaking the bank. Moreover, they "get it". They FEEL the music. They listen to what you ask for, they understand what you want, and they know how to execute. I recommend them whole-heartedly and without a single reservation. You will not be disappointed."

Kalliope V."This band is the real deal. I first heard them perform at a festival in Baltimore back in 2019 and they were phenomenal. Their professionalism, their passion, their positive energy and their performance on stage had everyone dancing on their feet all night long. It was a night I will never forget. This is one of the very few Greek bands that have ever impressed me this much and I can’t wait to see them down here again. I highly recommended them!"

Minas"I first heard this band back in 2019 at St.Demetrios in Astoria, NY for the Amorgos Vasilopita. The passion and the kefi they gave during the event was unique and they had people dancing non stop. Hopefully things with COVID come back to normal soon so I get to see this amazing and talented group perform again in the near future. Best of luck to you guys always, which you undoubtedly deserve!"
George K.I chaired the Epiphany Glendi and Epiphany Ball in Tarpon Springs, Florida for 2023. The goal for our events were to bring back "old Tarpon", energetic glendi with lots of dancing and "kefi"; that's what our town was full of during my childhood! Niko and the team he put together were a key factor to making sure we met our goal!!!!! It was an amazing weekend with so much enthusiasm and kefi! I continue to get messages from the community talking about how much fun everything was. I look forward to working with Niko and team in the future! He's easy to work with and reliable!

Pelagos Entertainment made our wedding unforgettable!! Their talent, professionalism, and passion made them so easy to work with and made it impossible for people to get off the dance floor! Their song choices and engagement with the crowd impressed everyone, especially my husband's non-greek family. Our guests were so entertained and had the most amazing time.
