“Thanks so much to you and the band for doing such a great job at our wedding. We had a fantastic time and all of our guests seemed to really enjoy themselves too.

We had a fantastic time and all of our guests seemed to really enjoy themselves too. We were really impressed that you kept the dance floor full all night. Most of our guests seemed to much prefer your sets to my disco choices in between! But we also really appreciated that you worked to our requirements on the night and were flexible when the timings didn't work out as we expected. We really did think you were excellent. We'd have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone - we found you just on the strength of your earlier testimonials and would encourage anyone else looking for a wedding band that you really were as good as everyone else said you would be. Thanks again for making it such a great night!” Read more

Phil D booked Joyriders for their event

“We booked Joyriders for our wedding purely after hearing their demo on the internet and we were not dissapointed. It is fair to say that we were absolutely blown away by how good they were! We did not want a first dance so just asked the guys to start playing something to fill the floor. From the first note to the last encore the dance floor was packed with our friends and we could not have ...”“We booked Joyriders for our wedding purely after hearing their demo on the internet and we were not dissapointed. It is fair to say that we were absolutely blown away by how good they were! We did not want a first dance so just asked the guys to start playing something to fill the floor. From the first note to the last encore the dance floor was packed with our friends and we could not have had more compliments for our choice of band. If you want an awesome band book these guys! ” Read more

They kept me informed of all that needed to be done and made sure that the band had contacted me prior to the party. Academy were fantastic and really helped make my daughter's party a great success. About three weeks before the event, they sent me a sample set list to see if it was the type of music we wanted. The choice of songs was excellent, covering music from the 60's to the 90's. They arrived in good time to set up and sound check, and conducted themselves in a friendly, but professional, manner at all times. Their actual performance was outstanding and had everyone up dancing. All our guests said how much they enjoyed the band and I am sure that Academy really helped make a good party great. I would recommend Academy to anyone and would certainly book them again. ” Read more

They intermingled with the guests on the dance floor from time to time which was fun; they played good songs; the dance floor was buzzing right to the end; we have received lots of comments saying that Groove Star were brilliant. We would definitely recommend this band for a function playing to any age group. Our guests were aged 16 - 86 and everyone loved the band. We would book this band again if having another party - maybe a wedding one day!!” Read more

We chose The Kicks principally because they sounded quite good on the website. On the night however they were outstanding! Very professional, punctual, polite etc etc but they also brought a lots of fun and energy and played 3 really good sets which everyone enjoyed. One of my close friends is a drummer in a Wedding Band (Didn’t want him to have to work on my Wedding day) and even he was particularly impressed. The communications with them beforehand was good and there general professionalism made it one less thing to worry about. Book with confidence.” Read more
