Dexter delivered in spades.

5 stars - Dexter are Highly Recommended
Geoff C booked Dexter for their event in Staffordshire

“Ultimately it’s important to get a great band or performer on the night. Dexter delivered in spades and genuinely looked like they had a good night themselves. The service supplied by Alive was fantastic too which made the whole process stress free and almost effortless. Many thanks to all involved and we will be using you for our next event for sure.”

Philippa T booked The Brightsides for their wedding in Warwickshire

“The Brightsides played at our wedding in July and were absolutely fantastic. They set up early of us arriving at the venue, and waited for our longer-than-planned speeches, then took the initiative to continue playing as we were behind schedule. Being a busy bride on the day I didn't get asked once what was needed to be done which was great!! The music was perfect, they learnt our 1st dance so...”“The Brightsides played at our wedding in July and were absolutely fantastic. They set up early of us arriving at the venue, and waited for our longer-than-planned speeches, then took the initiative to continue playing as we were behind schedule. Being a busy bride on the day I didn't get asked once what was needed to be done which was great!! The music was perfect, they learnt our 1st dance song for us (Buble number), and they really judged the audience well as to what to play (so you can certainly trust their judgement). I would most highly recommend Scott, so professional, & really made our day. Thank you so much.” Read more

“Dear Glauco, I know this message is a little belated, but Scott and I just wanted to say a MASSIVE thank you for playing at our wedding on the 13th July. It's been a bit of a whirlwind since the big day, so my apologies for not getting in touch sooner.

It's been a bit of a whirlwind since the big day, so my apologies for not getting in touch sooner. We've had so many complements from our guests and we just thoroughly enjoyed your song choices – from creating our very own 'Soul Train' with Get Lucky, to finishing the night with a super-enthusiastic performance of Smells Like Teen Spirit! You were just brill from start to finish and we couldn't have wished for more. Everyone absolutely loved your guitar skills too, especially on the Guns and Roses and Bruce classics! Thank you for helping us to have a night to remember! ” Read more

“The process of finding and booking the band with Alive Network was simple and efficient. The efficiency of the administration was reassuring and gave confidence.

The efficiency of the administration was reassuring and gave confidence. Academy communicated with us very well ahead of the event to make sure our requirements were met. They were good to do business with but most importantly they were excellent musically. They played a great assortment of songs that hit the mark perfectly….. and they didn’t clockwatch at the end, doing 3 encores! All in all, highly recommended.” Read more
