Fully FunKtional: Ultimate Party People! A bunch of musicians that stand and politely go through the motions - we are definitely not! Time & again our clients tell us how obvious enjoyment boundless energy & enthusiasm have been the most infectious thing since measles. If you want to see horn players starting a conga-line our guitarist encouraging guests to assist in a wild solo singers serenading people even outside the room & a bass player doing the occasional backslide across the dance floor mid-song then this is the band you need to book. They’ll wow you musically & exhaust you visually! They’ve done their research on the live music circuit & they are pleased to say no one even comes close! That's not to say they can't tone it down & be well-behaved if you want something a little more low-key mellow or sophisticated. They're here to tailor the performance & music exactly to your specification. In their repertoire is a generous spoonful of every ingredient required for an unforgettable performance from rock n' roll, pop, funk, soul, disco, rock & jazz. Whatever you like best, they’ll add an extra helping & keep you coming back for more.

Dream Themes... As well as the famously funky party band, Fully FunKtional are also able to 'slip into something more comfortable' if your event has a special theme. Whether it is a flare-fest from the sequined Studio 54 doing all that's groovy from the 70s, shouting Aloha! in a beach party theme in grass skirts & leis with the Hawaii 5-0s, donning a naughty schoolgirl uniform as The Prefects to whisk you back to a Skool Daze , or maybe Catwoman, Superman & Co as The Groovie Movie Band, or get 'shagadellic baby' in an Austin Powers theme with Mojo, try a rock-up with anthems & pop/rock classics from Rock-it, or add a chunk of cheddar for the Ultimate Cheese Party Live, playing all the classics you love although you know you shouldn't, from YMCA to D.I.S.C.O. They can also do a set of 60s or 80s in costume, a 30 minute James Bond tribute Octopussy, or turn on the charm with their jazz ensembles for background/reception entertainment. They've got something for every one of every persuasion & a dressing up-box to makes kids nation-wide have a jealous tantrum!
The Ultimate Party Band for every occasion, big or small, lively or mellow. Specialising in pop, rock, disco, funk, soul, rock n' roll & jazz. Whatever your requirements, they can provide the music to make your evening unforgettable.

Just really wanted to say a massive thank you to you and the band for creating such a fantastic atmosphere at Alex's barmitzvah!
Everyone had been so complimentary about you guys - you rocked! The kids really loved the music and our friends all said they had a fantastic time and they really loved you! I hope you will get some spin off from our do - I will certainly recommend you to everyone!
I know you haven't done many barmitzvahs before - you handled the whole Jewish dancing stuff really well thanks for that.
Thanks again for everything!

Dear Clare
I don't know were to begin, the band was absolutely fabulous, great entertainment, totally professional, no one wanted the night to end.
The band were really good to deal with from first point of contact, Emily kept in contact in the weeks leading up to the party, asked for any special requests, the band even set the lighting system up so that it spelled out Kalzip in coloured lights on the dance floor.
Everyone at work is still talking about the night. They, like me, danced until the final number, Status Quo Kalzip All Over the World, the place was bouncing.
The disc jockey said he had been a DJ for 15 years and had never seen a band as good so our 40 year celebration was a huge success.
The duty manager said his staff did not want to go home they stayed and watched the show.
Thank you so much, you said they were good, you were right.
Kind regards
Barbara |

Dear Paul,
Thanks for your email and for all your help. The band were fantastic on the night - everyone was commenting on how brilliant the music and the showmanship were. Lots of guests were asking where and how we found them, so there may well be some follow-up work for them. If I were getting married again, they'd be top of the list....
Thanks again,

Thanks Gemma!
Fully Funktional were outstanding. We've had SO many people rave about their performance. I only wish we hadn't run so long with the speeches - I can't remember what time FF started, but they could have played for hours more and still kept the dancefloor full!
Thanks for a great service and for supplying such a wonderful band.

Dear Paul,
Thank you for email.
We had a fantastic day & everything went as planned.
We have had endless positive comments about Fully Funktional. We want to let them know how fantastic they were. The voices, music and personalities. They accommodated to all our needs, kept the dance floor packed all night long. Getting up on chairs, playing around the marque wirelessly was fantastic and my family/friends thought they were amazing.
All of them had lovely personalities that you didn't feel intimidated by knowing their past history of who they have played for.
We couldn't have asked for any better. So a huge thank you to all of Fully Funktional team. I have no doubts in my mind that if I had another event I would definitely book them again.
Anyway thanks again & to you Paul for all your assistance with booking & arranging this fantastic band.
Many Thanks
Lisa & Rich |

Hi Rebecca,
Ksenia and Tavis had a great wedding thank you and they loved the band and DJ!
And I must thank you for recommending such a fabulous band - they were really great - full of energy, great sets, they had the dance floor packed.
They were also so lovely to deal with, they were prompt, organized, so willing to work with all the bride's requests and lists of music! And so helpful to me with my requests. They all said thank you and were just a delight to work with.
Thank you so much, best wishes

I just wanted to say the biggest, hugest THANK YOU ever to Fully Funktional for doing a marvelous, show stopping performance at my wedding on the 23rd July at Prestwold Hall up in Loughborough. Thank you to yourself for organising the band and ensuring that they turned up at the right venue at the right time! They were totally professional throughout....I didn’t even notice them arrive and set-up, it was all done very surreptiously!!! We were completely blown away by just how outstanding the band were, the tunes were awesome, the vocalists fanbloomintastic, as for the brass and the rhythm section......WOW!! After being left in the lurch back in January, im so glad it happened and we found you, the band were everything i dreamed of and more, from the lazy lounge jazz to the funky disco, you guys rocked! They had the whole place dancing and buzzing all night, and absolutely every guest gushed with compliments on their amazing talent (which are still pouring in).....we all wanted to carry on partying all night. Fully Funktional really made our evening reception, a true touch of class, energy and professionalism that was a perfect way to end a perfect day! I can't thank you enough - you and your band really are incredible, please pass on our thanks to the members of the band and tell them that they were awesome! We'll definitely be coming to dance to your tunes again sometime, I’d really appreciate it if you could let us know of any dates that you will be playing at any venues in the near future! Keep up the good work...... It’s back down to reality for us now as we try to get on with normal life after a fairytale wedding and honeymoon...... i want to do it all over again!!! Thanks again, I’ll keep up to date with you guys on your website! |

Can I just say a great big thank you to you and the rest of Fully Funktional for making our Birthday Party such an incredible success. The quality of the band was always going to be the make or break of the party and you really turned out to be the MAKE of our evening; I have lost count of the number of guests who have raved about the fantastic entertainment that you delivered. Can't wait to be 40 again so that I can have a re-run! Thanks is not enough but thanks! Pasqualina and Richard" I am happy for anyone who wants to contact me to have my email address too. |

I wanted to take this opportunity to drop you a note to thank you and the guys for all the effort and hard work put into the National Express Dinner. As always you were true professionals, even encouraging them back into the room away from the bar!!! I for one had a fabulous time. Needless to say both the client and the audience were extremely happy with the event. We have enjoyed working with you again and I hope to work with you in the near future. Once again, thank you for all of us at DRP for the part you played in this success. |

On behalf of Watford FC I am writing to say a huge thank you to you and the band for your fantastic performance at the above event. I apologise that the event ran over time and am very grateful to you all for sacrificing your break to carry on performing straight through.

Just a quick email to thank you for all your help with FullyFunktional - they were fantastic. Everything went really smoothly, and most importantly, the client seemed to really enjoy their performance. The range of music that the band played took in all tastes, and they gave a wonderfully polished performance.
They were wonderfully easy to work with, and we certainly plan on using them again. |
