Brilliant Musicians - Great range, and a great Hora!

5 stars - The Leaners are Highly Recommended
booked The Leaners for their wedding in London

“The Leaners were a dream to work with - they learned our first dance, and were able to play the Hora for our Jewish wedding, as well as transition to great dancing songs for the rest of the night. The bands energy, sound, and friendliness were exceptional. Thank you so much for playing at our wedding.”

5 stars - Riptide are Highly Recommended
booked Riptide for their wedding in Kent

“We hired these guys as our wedding band. They were awesome. The boring bits: they arrived on time, set up, were really decent guys. The non boring bits: they were quality, the best band we could have hoped for. Every song they played was great and they included the songs that we wanted from their repertoire. All DJ requests were gladly accommodated and they adjusted their set times to suit our nee...” Read more

booked The Retro Team for their party

“We hired Weekend Retro for a double "dance til you drop" retirement party. We couldn't be more happy with our decision. They were really good to deal with in the run up to the event with clear communication, a great list of songs to choose from for the two sets played, and even agreed to set up our playlist in between band sessions. The music and singing were fantastic on the night and the dance f...” Read more

5 stars - The Secret Set are Highly Recommended
booked The Secret Set for their wedding in Wiltshire

“Naomi and The Secret Set were incredible. We only had limited communication before the wedding but we got across the genres and timings of the wedding and they smashed it. They played all the best music for the generations were there - soul and dance at the start and finished with indie rock and drum and bass. It was epic and we had so many compliments about the band afterwards. Couldn't hav...” Read more
