Guests at Stryker’s recent award show at the JW Marriott Grande Lakes Orlando were treated to an unforgettable night of music, celebration, and crowd-pleasing energy thanks to Sail Away Sounds, a Los Angeles-based yacht rock sensation known for elevating high-end corporate events. As the evening’s featured award show entertainment, the band delivered a smooth, feel-good set packed with iconic soft-rock hits that perfectly matched the upscale resort setting. Their polished sound and charismatic stage presence made them a standout choice for event music at one of the world’s leading medical technology companies’ most important celebrations.
As the formal program wrapped, Sail Away Sounds seamlessly transitioned from elegant party band to full-throttle fun, moving into a dedicated after-party space where they transformed the night into a live karaoke band experience. Guests were invited onstage to sing alongside the band, creating a high-energy, interactive atmosphere that kept the dance floor full well past midnight. This unique blend of performance and participation turned the after party into a highlight of the entire event.
From sophisticated award show entertainment to late-night, sing-along celebration, Sail Away Sounds once again proved why this Los Angeles-based band is in demand for premium event music nationwide. Their ability to adapt, engage, and entertain across multiple event formats — from polished corporate moments to a full live karaoke band experience — makes them an exceptional party band for companies looking to create memorable, high-impact events.
