"Everyone thought The Duo were great. They made the party go with a swing, and when people weren’t dancing, they were thoroughly enjoying their musical skills.
We can’t thank them enough for ensuring that our Ruby party went well and would recommend them to anyone.

Previous clients have said;
"The Duo's energy and professionalism was second to none. They were far better than we could have ever wished for and had all our guests singing and dancing along at the end. During the meal they played some of our favourite songs and all our friends commented on how good the singing was. We will most definitely be booking them again and recommend them to anyone. Thank you so much guys for making our wedding day extra special." -Mr and Mrs Lea
"We booked The Duo for a private party on 17th September. They were absolutely AMAZING and we couldn't have asked for anything better. They learnt a special request only days before the party and all our friends and family can't stop telling us how good they were. As well as gaining a few female admirers LOL they truly are a multi faceted act which worked as background music and as the main event! I would recommend them to anyone." - Matthew Clarke

There was great communication with regards to my choice of DJ music requirements and they played an excellent live 2 sets which kept the dance floor full. I did not stop dancing all night.

"Its always tricky trying to find the right band for the right budget by listening to small clips online, but any fears were had were soon allayed thanks to the wonderful service provided by Rebecca, and the exceptional performance on the night from the Duo.
They are better than any other band we have heard at any entertainment functions and managed to provide a fantastic atmosphere with just the 2 of them, which meant the dance floor was full from start to end.
I cant count on both hands the number of people that asked us where we found them from as they were so impressed. The music, service, courtesy, really was absolutely wonderful. I almost wish I had another wedding so we could use them again. "

"Alive Network seemed very professional, the site was really easy to use, it was easy to search by budget as well as group and style of music. That fact that you could download and listen the music by the groups impressed me and helped greatly with my decision making. All these factors convinced me the book through Alive Network.
The Duo were a very professional, courteous and friendly they gave a fantastic performance which managed to cater forall ages at our party. We had many comments on the night from our guests on how impressed they were, they are certainly a very talented combination and I would most definitely recommend them and your company.
Kind Regards

"I just wanted to say a massive thankyou for the act we had on friday night 'The Duo'. They were received so well by our audience, arrived on time, ready to perform and lovely to deal with.
The Duo's performance had everyone singing along and having a great time to some popular music.
I would once again like to say thankyou so much to you, as at the price we paid, the service we got far exceeded expectations.
Thanks once again, I'll be in touch with Alive Network for our next Ball in summer.

"Everyone raved about The Duo and wanted to know more. They got people dancing in the middle of the day- always a difficult task.
From the initial view of the website to the contact both with the band and Alive Network, I felt reassured that everything was being taken care of which meant one less thing to worry about when planning my party!"

"I thought I'd write to say a big thank you for your performance at our wedding. You guys were fantastic!
We could not have wished for anything more. From your pre wedding emails regarding our first dance and some late editions for our recorded set list, to your live performance, you went above and beyond expectations.
Thank you so much for learning our first dance, your performance (especially your voice!) was awesome. You had many of our guests in tears! The recorded music was well judged and everyone seemed to be up and dancing at some stage.
We hope you were happy with all our arrangements and that you managed to get some food and drinks!
Thanks again for making our wedding day so special.
Kind regards,
Richard and Poppy Leask
