Got everyone on the dance floor

5 stars - Checkmate are Highly Recommended
booked Checkmate for their event in North Yorkshire

“Great comms in the lead up to our conference. They even contacted our dancers before the event so that they could liaise with music which took the pressure off the event organisers. They sounded amazing and got everyone on the dance floor. Finished the 3 day conference with a bang! Professional and fun!”

booked Checkmate for their event in Oxfordshire

“I would like to congratulate Checkmate on providing an excellent evening of party/ ball music on May 7th 2022. They played all the songs I requested and were very flexible with the timings. All my guests said how excellent the band was. They all loved the songs. The band were also helpful in getting people on the dance floor when there was a lull. I would recommend them to anyone having a petty, ball or wedding.”


Perfect for the charity event. Something for all.

“Just right for the event. The band played something for everyone. The dance floor was full from start to finish. Band really helped in raising spirits, which contributed to a successful fund raising event for Prostate Cancer UK. Thank you.”


Checkmate - What a Great Choice

5 stars - Checkmate are Highly Recommended
booked Checkmate for their event in Warwickshire

“Tremendous, superb, brilliant, outstanding are just a few words to describe our experience of the group who played at my wife's 70th and her mum's 90th birthday party. They had great interaction with my guests and the song choices were spot on. The saxophonist added that extra dimension and I would also recommend this choice. The group gave us an afternoon which we will remember for a long time. Thank You.”


Fantastic Band, made our party

5 stars - Checkmate are Highly Recommended
booked Checkmate for their event in West Yorkshire

“Highly recommend this fantastic band. Wide raage of music, accommodated our late requests. Encouraged our 12 year old to sing her party piece for us "Skyfall" by Adele, by rehearsing beforehand with her. Professional, friendly, very well presented. All our guests loved them. They got us all up dancing from 1st song. You can not go wrong with this band for any occasion. Thank you, Angela, Nick & Cara x”

“The singing together with the band's performance greatly contributed to the success of the evening. So many of our guests complimented the band. The song choices worked perfectly and all age groups joined the dancing and clearly enjoyed the evening. Checkmate gave us a wonderful night to remember. We would highly recommend them.”


Over the moon - we made a fantastic choice.

booked Checkmate for their event in West Yorkshire

“We booked Checkmate for our Brass Band’s 20th Anniversary Dinner and we are over the moon, we made a fantastic choice. We had a wide age range (12-80) and there was something for everyone. Great interaction with their audience, professional and a great sound from musicians and vocalists. So glad we added the saxophonist, it just added that little extra touch. We had such great feedback from our guests. Dancing right to the end; sore feet and aching backs this morning but what a night! Would definitely recommend and would even hire again if the occasion arose. Thank you Checkmate.”

booked Checkmate for their event

“Just a note to thank you so much for playing at our wedding - you set up so quietly I was almost worried you hadn't made it and everyone was so impressed when the curtain went back and the music started. The last song of the night was a moment I shall never forget and Daydream Believer will now be a firm favourite! ”

“The fact that the dancefloor was never empty is a testiment to how much the guests enjoyed the music and your choice of songs. People said it was the best Charter Night they had ever attended. My personal thanks to you all for making my Charter Night celebration an evening I shall never forget.”
