Black Salt are excited to also include the amazing Frank Nastri featuring on percussion as our latest inclusion to the bands line up extending the band to the 7 piece option.

We were recommended Black Salt by some friends, music on the night was the most important thing to us as everyone LOVES to dance and you guys did not disappoint. Also you guys are so chilled and lovely and were a pleasure to have around.

These guys are the best, they get everyone up and dancing so make sure you have a big dance floor; you will need it. You won’t be disappointed.

I just cannot overstate how awesome Black Salt is! We have been fortunate enough to have them as our entertainment on a couple of occasions for mid winter functions and there will undoubtedly be many more to come. I loved how they also dressed to our theme. They have become so popular and they’re a great bunch of guys. Their song lists are comprehensive and cater for all ages and musical tastes. The dance floor is always packed from the first song to the last and I can’t wait for the next function to get Black Salt along.
