The Sultans
What started as a five-piece bar band on Martha’s Vineyard…
“… band that has expanded its footprint each year for three decades; that has performed for hundreds of thousands of well-heeled guests, including the past five presidents of the United States.”
Daniel Riley,
“America’s Greatest Wedding Band”
The Process
“…most of the time, the wedding band knows best. The secrets to manipulating a group toward reverie on a grand scale. The difference between what’s needed at this party here and what’s needed at that party down the interstate. And knowing, in particular, the songs that you’re going to want to hear at a given hour of the night, even if you don’t realize it yet.”

Ceremonies
Whether you prefer solo piano, guitar, vocalists – the same musicians that perform at your wedding handle the cocktail and ceremony. If you prefer string, we source the very best available locally
After Party
Many of the venues we perform at stop music at a given time. We keep the party going with many options, including “campfire singalong”, with percussion we supply, DJ after Party, with or without instrumentalists, and Silent disco. We’re open to suggestion.
Cocktail Events
The Sultans prefer themed cocktail hours, that have rhythm and vibe, that you can feel at a whisper… Whether it’s a Gatsby/New Orleans themed party at a Newport Mansion, a Deadhead/Fish duo for a band in Vermont, or a yacht Rock trio,,
The Talent
“The organization stands as one congruous entity because the standards, the style, and the theory of The Show come from the top. Jerry.”
Daniel Riley,
“America’s Greatest Wedding Band”
The Music
“To compose a distended dream sequence, a four-hour-long river of back-to-back-to-backs you’d never conceived of wanting to hear in that particular order before? That’s the thing people notice, I think, and why the business grows and grows.”

We ask you to share as little or as much personal insight into your musical tastes, as you care to, with no pressure either way.
Whether you just want the band to do what they do best, “read the crowd” or if you have strong preferences, we got you. We understand memories and music are so powerful, we can’t leave them out! The outcome is always a smash.
