Letitia booked The Upstarts for their Wedding in Herefordshire

“Great band, so easy to deal with, emailed me a month beforehand to ask for preferences and called me a week prior to our wedding to check everything was in order. All band members were lovely and easy going. They even surprised us by learning our first dance, which we had not expected! Was one of the happiest moments of our day. Thank you! They also made sure to keep both myself and the groom updated with any changes (because the speeches ran over). Lead singer had an incredible voice! A lot of our guests asked how we found The Upstarts and how to contact them, which shows just how good they were. I didn’t want the music to stop! So happy we chose The Upstarts for our wedding, wouldn’t hesitate to hire them again.”

Victoria F booked The Upstarts for their Wedding in Cheshire

“We booked The Upstarts just a week before our wedding as our previous band cancelled on us, and we were so happy with them and received loads of comments from our guests about what a good band they are. They learned our first dance song at short notice and encouraged people to get on the dance floor when it emptied. The only down side was they didn’t play some songs we chose and played some that we didn’t, but overall we were really happy and would recommend them to anyone looking to book a band!”

Amazing band! Made a perfect day even better!

Susan S booked The Upstarts for their Wedding in Lancashire

“This band were absolutely fantastic, they played all the songs that we requested, our first dance was a highlight as the band had the floor filled very quickly and kept it that way all night. They were an absolute delight to have in the room and sounded brilliant. All members were professional, helpful and supportive.”

A great, modern sounding band and so easy to deal with.

“Talented musicians and super nice guys, they had our wedding dance floor full whenever they were playing. We had so many people tell us they loved the band and we both did as well. The lead singer has a really versatile voice and a showstopping falsetto. We would definitely book again.”

Absolutely Fantastic!

Andrew T booked The Upstarts for their Wedding in North Yorkshire

“We can’t express strongly enough how fantastic they were. Everyone commented how good they were even the venue wanted their details for future events! Not only are they great musicians, they are also really nice guys. Nothing was too much trouble they even offered to learn our choice of first dance song (which was amazing) They are really engaging and everyone was singing along, it was lovely how they got us and our guests involved. Communication in the run up and on the day was easy and they were really accommodating.”

Fantastic band with a varied repertoire

Nicola K booked The Upstarts for their Wedding in West Sussex

“We selected The Upstarts to play at our wedding based on their varied repertoire. They played a range of songs (from Lionel Richie to Robin Thicke to The Killers) which kept all of our guests entertained and on the dancefloor all night. So many people commented on how good they were and how great the lead singer was! Prior to our wedding they were in contact with us to confirm what songs we wanted played and timings etc which was really helpful as it enabled us to ask questions and have a chat before the actual day. They also provided a DJ set in the breaks which we provided a playlist for and they were helpful in telling us about duplicates that would be played in their set, so the same songs weren't played twice. The Upstarts are a great band and great bunch of lads. We would definitely recommend them to others!”

Fantastic band, sounded amazing and did a great job

Jamie G booked The Upstarts for their event in Durham

“Consummate professionals throughout the experience. They arrived ready to play and worked really well with our tech team who said they were great to work with. Musically I thought the band sounded amazing - I left the choice of music up to them apart from vague directions in terms of theme and vibe of the event, and I think it worked out really well with some great choices and they kept up the energy well. They were given a tough slot to fill as the event was just starting up, but they set the tone really well - I had lots of people comment on how great they sounded and how well it fit in. Our booking went in very last minute, but Mark and the guys were very communicative and that made the whole thing seem a doddle.”

I was extremely pleased I booked The Upstarts
