We were over the moon with our choice to book The Quartones.

“We found your website when first starting to search for a band, and we were thrilled to have stumbled across such a fabulous site with a whole array of genres of music to choose from.

We immediately starting tapping ideas into the search criteria and were amazed at how much information you had on the site. From set lists and sound bites, to availability and prices it was all there. Our biggest fear was booking a band that we hadn’t seen but we really wanted a band that none of our friends had seen before. We felt at ease once we had made an enquiry and spoke to a real person as opposed to solely communicating through email. We really liked the “agency” vibe of Alive Network, especially as we made a few enquiries about bands to start with before making our decision. We felt in good hands that the team were liaising with the band, and even when we made a last minute change to the schedule, we weren’t made to feel like it was a problem which we much appreciated especially as the build up to a wedding is so stressful! We were over the moon with our choice to book The Quartones. They were professional, organised, and passionate about what they played. They played for our welcome drinks, and we added a male singer for the evening reception. They went above and beyond our expectations and we have had many comments from our guests about how good they were. Our first dance was booked as their last song, and even though we were late they didn’t rush us at all but just carried on until we were ready. We really did feel that they had our interests at heart. We would highly recommend both The Quartones and Alive Network, considering how stressful it is to plan a wedding we felt at ease and looked after throughout the entire process.” Read more

Equally talented and professional.

5 stars - Supernova are Highly Recommended
David booked Supernova for their event

“The guys played at our wedding in May ’13, and they were superb. Bob really listened to what we wanted from a band and the atmosphere we were hoping create, and they nailed it. They even learned a specific song for our first dance and put their own slant on it. Can’t speak highly enough of them. Equally talented and professional, we wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them!”

Rabscallion were fantastic.

“Gemma from Alive Network was efficient and provided feedback to my questions in a friendly and prompt manner. Rabscallion were fantastic and met the expectations I had gleaned from previous online reviews. The evening was epic! ”

They were a pleasure to work with.

“I just wanted to say a massive thank you for Sunday. Although I didn’t make it to the finish in time to see the band (I was making my way slowly from the start area to the finish via each of the pit stops!) I’ve had such good feedback from staff, volunteers and cyclists about how much they enjoyed Teenage Kicks and what a pleasure they were to work with. Thanks again!”

We couldn’t recommend The Atoms highly enough.

Top of the list was reliability & professionalism, but we also wanted a group that would keep all the guests involved as much as possible. As soon as The Atoms started to play we knew it was all worth it & they added exactly what we hoped & even more to a fantastic day. If you want a talented, energetic & professional group with a varied playlist who really get the party going & keep it going, with no extra headaches, then we couldn’t recommend The Atoms highly enough. Everybody was dancing late into the night & we’re still getting great feedback from lots of guests telling us how impressed they were with them & how much they enjoyed themselves. Obviously this makes us really happy - we’re only sorry we can’t book them again & do the whole thing over. ” Read more

“To all at Happy Hour, Thank you for being a part of our special day! It was awesome having you play at our wedding! Your rendition of Coldplay's "Fix You" was amazing, it was beyond our expectation and made a truly memorable moment for us. Our guests loved the music and I'm glad to say you were highly praised. Hope to see you play again.”

The quality of the band was a definite highlight.

“The Alive Network coordinators were very helpful and made effort to fix any issues and provided a personal touch which was infinitely better than a random call centre service often involved in other services, and much appreciated!

Chelsea Swagger showed up early, set up independently and were ready to go. Their appearance was very professional and they possessed fantastic musical talents. They played a set of jazz standards and then a rock/pop set which suited everyone's tastes and provided perfect music for the evening - the quality of the band was a definite highlight and talking point for all of the guests. Would certainly recommend these guys to friends. ” Read more
