Brian H booked The New Country Band for their event
“The New Country Band were perfect for our large party of friends and family, ranging across several generations. Dawn and the boys know exactly how to get everyone up on the floor for both line and barn dancing. What a wonderful caller! She paced the evening perfectly and the enthusiastic musicianship of the band enhanced the feel good factor. We all had a ball, and we have been deluged with emails from all participants saying it was one of the best parties they had attended for many a long year.”

Fenella A booked The New Country Band for their Wedding in Berkshire
“We booked The New Country Band to perform at our village wedding on 27th September. Both the groom and I were quite taken with the idea of a country style band and after working with Alive we managed to find them and secure the date. Prior to the wedding I had quite a bit of contact with the band, about the logistics, song choices and set lists and nothing was ever a problem and they were happy to accommodate a bride’s needs! They arrived to set up when the reception was in full swing but they were so quick and quiet that all of a sudden they were set up and ready to go! They blasted out their songs and it got everyone dancing. Their sets were lively, upbeat and they looked like they were having a whale of a time performing.”

Aimee F booked The New Country Band for their Wedding in West Sussex
“I was looked after by my entertainment coordinator called Gemma Jane, she was very helpful and did a great job. To make sure the band were perfect I did bombard her with emails, however Gemma made sure that she was professional throughout the whole process and all questions that I had she made sure that she answered them all. The New Country Band were great, we would use them again and recommend them to anyone. They performed our first song live and I cannot put into words how beautiful it was. Thank you all so much for your help and support. You made it all so worthwhile so spend your money on this band. We will recommend the company and the band time after time. I would love my comments added to your website to let everyone know how wonderful you both were.”
