They were fantastic.

5 stars - The Wedding Crashers are Highly Recommended
Duncan K booked The Wedding Crashers for their event

“We hired the Wedding Crashers for our wedding and they we're fantastic. The performance they put was high energy every single set and they got every body off their feet and on the dance floor the whole night. If you want a band that will lift the mood of the party then look no further!! Thanks guys.”

The Heat were absolutely great and made the evening.

Tim L booked The Heat for their party at Old Greenside Farm in Cheshire

“he Heat were absolutely great and made the evening. When you book on line as we did you are always a bit nervous as to what you get, but the Heat exceeded expectations. They got into the party theme, played a really tight set and had everyone dancing all night long. From all the party goers the feedback was clear, the band made the party. Thank you The Heat. ”

They were outstanding - exceeded our expectations

5 stars - Hipster are Highly Recommended
Jenny J booked Hipster for their wedding in Northumberland

“They were outstanding - exceeded our expectations. Great performance and good amount of interaction with the guests. We could not have been happier with them - they really were excellent in all respects. The guests loved them too; everyone was raving about them. Genuinely lovely guys, very professional and a real pleasure to have on our wedding day!”

You guys were absolutely brilliant.

5 stars - Starlight are Highly Recommended
Lee B booked Starlight for their event

“Just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and the whole of Starlight for an amazing performance at Devon & Joe’s wedding reception. You guys were excellent. Such a great mix of tunes and quite a few that you wouldn’t expect from a cover band that went down really well. I had loads of people comment on how good you were.

You guys were excellent. Such a great mix of tunes and quite a few that you wouldn’t expect from a cover band that went down really well. I had loads of people comment on how good you were. I personally loved the more ‘rockier’ mix that you play. Not just the usual wedding dance staples. Excellent. I also very much appreciate you not only learning and playing a beautiful version of the couple’s first dance, but also your willingness to accommodate our other requests on the night. You guys were absolutely brilliant. You made the whole evening that much more special. Thank You again.” Read more

I would entirely recommend both Alive Network and Pop Life!

5 stars - Pop Life are Highly Recommended
Duncan H booked Pop Life for their wedding at Sudbury House Hotel in Oxfordshire

“Everyone came up to me asking how we managed to get such an amazing band. Amazing doesn't even come close to describing how good they were. Way beyond my expectations. Jane and I were so proud of the entertainment we put on for our guests. Amy's vocals were absolutely out of this world. The rest of the guys are so talented, I can't believe now that we could afford them! They were so amazing and...”“Everyone came up to me asking how we managed to get such an amazing band. Amazing doesn't even come close to describing how good they were. Way beyond my expectations. Jane and I were so proud of the entertainment we put on for our guests. Amy's vocals were absolutely out of this world. The rest of the guys are so talented, I can't believe now that we could afford them! They were so amazing and made the night for everyone there. They performed (at our request) Love is an open door from Frozen. They performed it with so much enthusiasm, it was a really special moment for us. We really want to thank them for that. Throughout the whole night, they all really looked like they were enjoying themselves. This was one of the reasons we wanted to book Pop Life, as we didn't want a band who looked like they took things too seriously. They were having fun, and that meant a lot to us. In the run up to the night, Paul always referred to the night as a show. I thought it an odd term to use, but I get it now. They really did put on a show, a world class show. This wasn't just a few guys singing a few songs. This was rehearsed, organised, and superbly planned out showmanship. I'd love to re-book, and I would recommend them to anyone. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Pop Life had enquiries on the back of that event, our guests had an amazing night, Jane & I had the night of our lives. I'd be happy to speak to anyone considering this band. I had quite low expectations of using a service like Alive Network. Thought it was probably well marketed, but a total gamble as to whether or not the quality of service was very good. But Marc was superbly helpful, making suggestions, and when we found Pop Life, approached them and sorted things really quickly. I would go back to Marc, or use AN in future. I would entirely recommend both Alive Network and Pop Life!” Read more

Indie Riot are a really class act…

5 stars - Indie Riot are Highly Recommended
Joanna booked Indie Riot for their party in North Yorkshire

“Indie Riot was fantastic! The guys were really friendly and professional in every way so that everything was done smoothly and efficiently from setting up to clearing away. The sets were fantastic, great songs expertly performed. It was a really full, tight sound with great guitar riffs, excellent vocals and a beat to make the urge to dance impossible to resist…just what we were looking for! It ...”“Indie Riot was fantastic! The guys were really friendly and professional in every way so that everything was done smoothly and efficiently from setting up to clearing away. The sets were fantastic, great songs expertly performed. It was a really full, tight sound with great guitar riffs, excellent vocals and a beat to make the urge to dance impossible to resist…just what we were looking for! It was my son’s 18th and the 150 18 to 20 year olds loved the music as much as the ‘40-something’ contingent. Indie Riot are a really class act…we couldn’t have been more pleased. Very impressed with Alive Network. So glad to find the website as this was my first experience of booking a band and had no idea how to proceed. Watching the video clips of so many bands and choosing the sound that was just right for us was great…it’s hard to imagine how long that process would have taken without your website, or how successful it would have been.” Read more
