booked The Dualtones for their Wedding in Kent

“My wife and I booked the Dualtones for a barn wedding on the 8th July 2017. We could not have been happier with them! Right from the beginning, they were very easy to contact and kept in touch right up to the date. They were very open to changes to their set list and even learnt a song for our first dance and performed it in their own unique style, perfect! On the day they arrived promptly and where very efficient at setting up. Their performance was perfect! If you are wondering if this duo/trio can fill a large barn with their music and get everyone dancing the answer is absolutely yes! They smashed it out of the park and all our guests commented on how good they were. Thanks guys, you made our wedding!”


The band were great, Would recommend or book again with no hesitation.
