STEREO HEARTS - SOUTH WALES LIVE BAND FOR WEDDINGS & EVENTS
OUR STORY
Stereo Hearts didn’t just come together by accident; it was fate (and maybe a little bit of luck). Picture a group of musicians in South Wales, each with a passion for live music and a mission: to rescue wedding receptions, parties, and events from the clutches of boring background tunes. And so, Stereo Hearts was born—out of a shared love for performing and creating moments that people remember (or at least, dance to like nobody’s watching).
Since our formation, we’ve played at countless weddings, corporate events, and parties, each one different but equally unforgettable. We’ve become masters at reading the room—whether it’s a bride and groom’s first dance or your uncle’s epic moves after one too many on the dance floor. Our setlist has evolved over the years, and so have we. What started as a local passion project has grown into one of South Wales’ top wedding and event bands. From classic hits to today’s chart-toppers, we know how to make every event feel like the best party ever (because it is!).
So, whether you’re planning a small, intimate gathering or a massive celebration, we’ve got the expertise, energy, and enthusiasm to make it a night you and your guests will never forget. And that’s not just a promise—it’s our guarantee!
RHIIAN
LEAD SINGER, DRAMA QUEEN EXTRAORDINAIRE
Rhiian has been captivating audiences with her voice for over 18 years, though her musical journey began with (yes, like most of us) the recorder. Her early obsession with Britney Spears fueled her passion for performing, and she hasn’t stopped since. On stage, you’ll catch her belting out Everytime We Touch by Cascada and watching the crowd go absolutely wild.
Her most memorable gig? Picture this: a wedding that turned into a full-blown Glee episode, where every guest was a star performer. When she's not on stage, you can find her chugging tepid water (riveting, right?) and doing vocal warm-ups.
Rhiian loves pop music and musicals (she’s not afraid to admit she’s a Disney fan!). Post-show, silence is golden for her, but you can bet she’s already laughing about the jokes that were flying during setup. Fun fact: she once had water shoot out of her nose on stage because someone made her laugh mid-drink!
RHODRI
GUITARIST, THE MASTERMIND BEHIND STEREO HEARTS
Rhodri has been rocking the guitar for longer than he cares to admit, starting out with drums until his parents decided they were just too loud! His love for music was inspired by the thrash metal and grunge era (we’re talking Metallica and Nirvana), which made sure he looked the part with his long hair back in the day. Now, he’s found his sweet spot with everything from modern country to classic rock.
His favorite songs to perform? It’s a tie between Easy Lover by Phil Collins and Mr. Brightside—because no matter how overplayed it is, people go wild every time. Rhodri’s most memorable gig involved playing at a brewery owned by the H&M clothing mogul (great beer, even better steaks). When he’s not on stage, you can find him cruising home in silence—heated seats on, enjoying the peace and quiet.
Fun fact: Rhodri once worked in a crematorium, but now he prefers bringing the fire to the stage! He loves being part of Stereo Hearts because it doesn’t even feel like a job. And for the record, he’s an unashamed ABBA fan.
JON
DRUMMER, KEEPER OF THE GROOVE
Jon has been drumming for 19 years and hasn’t looked back since a music teacher first handed him the sticks in school. Inspired by drumming legends like Jeff Porcaro and Lars Ulrich, Jon’s favorite song to perform with Stereo Hearts is Footloose—it’s fast, it’s high-energy, and it has a drum intro (what more could a drummer want?).
Jon’s most memorable gigs have been at the orangeries Christmas parties, where the crowd is always fantastic. When he’s not behind the drum kit, you’ll find him decompressing with a podcast on the drive home. Fun fact: Jon’s lactose intolerant, so no milk for this drummer!
Jon’s guilty pleasure? Honestly, he doesn’t believe in guilty pleasures. From 80s metal to Dua Lipa, he listens to it all. And if he weren’t a drummer? Well, he dreams big—like maybe an astrophysicist… or, more realistically, selling newspapers.
