Wow! What a band!

5 stars - The Rips are Highly Recommended
Rebecca B booked The Rips for their wedding at Five Horseshoes in Lincolnshire

“Wow! What a great band! With several musicians in the family, expectations were high and boy did The Rips deliver! The band was one of the first suppliers we booked for our wedding and we got slightly excited and booked them knowing they were a little over our initial budget, yet we are SO pleased we did… We got incredible value for money.

The band was one of the first suppliers we booked for our wedding and we got slightly excited and booked them knowing they were a little over our initial budget, yet we are SO pleased we did… We got incredible value for money. The Rips had the dancefloor rocking right from the get go and it was never less than nearly-full all night. All of our family and friends had a fantastic time and we’ve heard so many compliments about the music since our big day. What’s more, in the lead up to the wedding, their communication was great – Liam was really helpful talking through our choices from their extensive repertoire and they were even able to accommodate our nearly-last-minute choice of first dance song (thanks guys!). If you’re looking for a band of high quality musicians, with brilliant stage presence and showmanship, that will have your party rocking all night long – then don’t hesitate and book The Rips now!!

“If you' want an amazing band look no further. These guys were absolutely amazing and rocked our wedding! All our guests loved them and nobody wanted them to stop! We couldn't be happier with their performance! Thank you guys! ”

The dance floor was full all night

5 stars - The Brightsides are Highly Recommended
John booked The Brightsides for their wedding

“A huge thanks for yesterday. You guys were awesome. The dance floor was full all night - I can only apologise the standard of dancing wasn’t as good as your playing but I think we made up for it in enthusiasm! Thanks for dusting off the brit-pop - it made my night.”

Waiting for an excuse to book The Secret Set again!

5 stars - The Secret Set are Highly Recommended
Harriet J booked The Secret Set for their party

“The Secret Set played at my 21st Birthday garden party in August 2016 and I could not be more pleased with the whole experience. I stopped Naomi at one of their gigs and she gave me the band’s email address. I wasn’t planning on having a band at my party but after watching them play at the Bristol Ram I couldn’t resist!

I stopped Naomi at one of their gigs and she gave me the band’s email address. I wasn’t planning on having a band at my party but after watching them play at the Bristol Ram I couldn’t resist! I emailed them the next day requesting their availability for a Saturday night only 4 weeks away. After a few emails back a forth with Naomi, she sent across a contract which provided all of the information I needed. On the day, the band arrived a few hours before kick-off to set up, apart from showing them where they’d be playing, the band took care of themselves. The actual performance was better than I could of imagined. I had a mixed audience and the band played songs that had everybody dancing! They even offered to learn 2 of my favourite songs and covered them so well (dare I even say I preferred their versions to the originals). When their set came to an end, my guests begged for more, and the band kindly played a few extras. They packed up quietly while the party carried on. The next day I didn’t receive one message that didn’t mention how fantastic the band was or how amazing Naomi’s voice is. I’m now just waiting for another excuse to book them. Thanks again The Secret Set for making my party such a night to remember!!!” Read more

Simply amazing from start to finish

5 stars - Joyriders are Highly Recommended
James R booked Joyriders for their wedding in Norfolk

“Joyriders were simply amazing from start to finish at our recent wedding. We had so many of our guests comment on how fantastic the band were throughout the day. Having listened to their demos on their website prior to booking them, we knew they were just what we were looking for but in the end they went above and beyond our expectations.

We had so many of our guests comment on how fantastic the band were throughout the day. Having listened to their demos on their website prior to booking them, we knew they were just what we were looking for but in the end they went above and beyond our expectations. The band were incredibly friendly and professional throughout the day. They provided some background music during our drinks reception and then for the evening the band started off by playing our first dance song Ed Sheeran Thinking Out Loud which was really special. Highlights from the rest of the night included them coming onto to the dancefloor to interact with our guests, arranging an impromptu sing off/dance off between the men/women, a brilliant version of Uptown Funk and one of the band wearing a Chuckle Brother mask from our fancy dress prop box. They also let the bride's sister sing with them on a couple of songs which made her night! We cannot speak highly enough about the band and would strongly recommend them to anyone looking to book some live music for an event” Read more

Lovely, personable guys

5 stars - Academy are Highly Recommended
Lynn L booked Academy for their party in Cheshire

“Just to say thank you to Academy for being so brilliant last night. Not only were they very professional,  but they were really lovely, personable guys. During the time when they were not playing, they were chatting away to guests or with myself which was really lovely. Once again, thank you.”

Rod M booked The Walks for their party in Norfolk

It was great to deal with an agency which were so easy to work with. Everything prior to the party worked as promised. The band contacted me and we worked out the music. When we finally met everything worked like clockwork. The band were amazing, so musically brilliant, versatile and great performers, but in addition such nice guys and easy to work with. It is not an exaggeration to say that The Walks made the party the success it was. The reaction from everyone was to congratulate me for finding them although I can’t take any credit it was all down to them. Well done guys and thank you!” Read more
