“The Upstarts were the perfect band for our wedding - a real mixture of genres and eras to suit all of our guests. They made sure everyone was on the dancefloor from the minute they started, and stayed there until the end of the night. A number of our guests have commented on how good the band were, and they really helped make our day extra special. Would definitely recommend!”

Amazingly talented band who will put on a great performance

“We had The Upstarts at our wedding this year and we couldn’t have asked for a better band. In the lead up to the wedding they were communicative and helpful. While setting up on the day they were organised and available for any questions we had. And most importantly they put on a great show. A super talented set of guys who brought loads of great energy. They got everyone dancing and we have had lots of comments on how brilliant they were. The icing on the cake is that they are a genuinely nice and friendly bunch too. Stop looking through bands and just book The Upstarts.”

Our very own tipi festival wedding!

“We wanted to say thank you so much to The Upstarts for making our day even more incredible! We held our very own tipi festival wedding, breaking many of the normal traditions. It was fun, relaxed and informal and the band complemented this amazingly. We asked for a chilled out vibe to begin and then to step it up! And step it up they truly did! The dance floor was packed and everyone was raving about them. We even had an extremely tired pregnant guest, ready to pop, who could not bring herself to leave the dance floor until the end! I had lost my voice by the end of the night from singing. Absolutely brilliant. Thank you from the new Mr and Mrs Matthias.”

Absolutely incredible set of guys!

Louise-Marie D booked The Upstarts for their Wedding in Lancashire

“Me and my husband got married yesterday at Barton Grange in Preston and The Upstarts arrived at 6.30 as agreed and were due to start at 8.30pm. All of the band were very friendly and outgoing and even started slightly before agreed after them setting up due to the guests being too eager. They performed our first dance song amazingly and engaged well with the guests doing an icredible mix of old and new. Some of our guests were very drunk by this point and the band were more than happy to take requests and let people sing with them! Everyone of our guests commented on the bands performance and how impressed they were (especially as it was a surprise) and I could not recommend them enough. Thank you so much for being your talented, friendly musical selves!”

Everyone has told me how much they loved you guys!

“Simply exceptional! The Upstarts were exceptional. We researched and researched to make sure we had the perfect band for us - for our guests - and we couldn’t have been happier. The atmosphere was incredible! The songs were perfection! Their voices superb! They were extremely professional yet fun! Everyone was impressed, so much so, their names were asked for and future bookings already in discussion amongst guests. I wouldn’t hestitate in recommending them to family and friends. Thank you The Upstarts - we loved you guys!”

Anna P booked The Upstarts for their Wedding in West Sussex

“We were so thrilled we chose The Upstarts. The acoustic session in the afternoon was just perfect- what a voice! Then from the first dance, everyone was up dancing and due to their extensive playlist, was dancing until the last song, after encores. So many guests have said how great the band were. Nothing was too much trouble- really lovely guys, so polite and easy as well as very talented musicians. They helped make our day so special and we cannot recommend them enough- you must book this brilliant band!”

Filled our dance floor all night

Sally M booked The Upstarts for their Wedding in Durham

“The Upstarts played at our wedding on 1 June and were absolutely brilliant. The music and vocals were incredible and all of our guests have commented on how good they were afterwards, with a few wanting to book them for their own events. Their set list was great and they really knew how to work the crowd. They also did a great job of learning our first dance song.”
