5 stars - The Retrobates are Highly Recommended
Victoria booked The Retrobates for their Wedding in Kent • August 2022
“The Retrobates were amazing! Everyone loved them and could be heard even as far back as the chill out room so although not many people were in front of band, everyone was listening and foot tapping! Was a great addition to the wedding celebrations and wouldn't hesitate in re-booking. Great playlist which covered everyone's favourites.”
