"I can’t recommend Little Miss Behavin and Alive Network enough. The booking procedure was smooth and easy and Alive Network found the perfect band for our WWII party.
Little Miss Behavin is an absolute joy and provided a top notch performance. They were extremely professional and the sound was out of this world. The singer herself engaged with party members in an easy and friendly manner and really bought the essence of WWII to our night.
Thank you so much – we’ll definitely be using them again.
P.S. Please pass on our thanks to the band for such an outstanding performance and for really making our evening a fantastic event.

"Dear Alive Network,
I wanted to write and tell you how special it was to have Little Miss Behavin sing and her band play for us at our wedding.
Her voice is so strong, rich and sexy...and she made the night incredible.
The English are always a bit shy to dance but her voice and music is infectious and by the end everyone was in front of her dancing.
She were great, and I felt strongly that she and her band were all very much part of our wedding.
Best wishes
Luciana

"I would like to say how thrilled I was to book this band. Little Miss Behavin arrived promptly, showed a great willingness to fit in with our theme ( 60th birthday party), and gave a consistent and stunning performance.
Everyone commented not only on her amazing voice, but on her warm, friendly and professional manner. I was delighted with all aspects of this performance, and would have no hesitation in recommending her or you again. Thank you so much. She made our party special!
Best wishes Jane Leclercq

"Hi Seth,
Yes all went very well last night thank you. Little Miss Behavin and her band were excellent and many of our guests and the venue staff told us how much they enjoyed her wide range of songs.
From my point of view, not only is she an excellent entertainer but is an organiser's ideal act - well prepared and flexible to adapting to any changes on the night!
Thanks for recommending her!
Regards
Ros"
