We had a great evening on 9th December at the University Arms in Cambridge. Whole Lotta Shakin were absolutely fantastic as you will see from some comments I have received below. We would like to thank them and hope to see them again. 'Excellent !' 'Graham and I enjoyed the band very much. We liked the way they played not only rock and roll but also other styles - in a rock and roll way - very strictly come dancing!! I don't think our jive was up to much, though it was fun trying. Thank you very much Jackie for Saturday we enjoyed the whole event.' 'I (and my other half) thought the band were fantastic. It's difficult to get music to suit all ages at a function like that, so it was great to see everyone up and dancing and having a good time. Much better than the traditional disco type arrangement. We were so impressed that we're looking to book them for our wedding!!' 'The band were very good.' 'As you know I really enjoyed the music on Saturday night. They were excellent and really down to earth, a pleasure to talk to. I don't normally dance, but they were so good I was up all night and didn't I feel it Sunday and yesterday!' 'Absolutely great! The band made the evening. We had a great time!' 'Well, people were on the dance floor as soon as they started playing & I don't think it was empty all night. I'm sure that must speak for itself, but if you would like further comments then I personally thought they were great.' 'Whole Lotta Shakin were excellent. Their music created a fantastic party atmosphere unrivalled in previous Xmas parties. Would recommend them to anyone' 'I know I didn't go to the party but all I've heard since then was how great the band were, so they must have been good for people to comment so much!' 'The band were excellent, the dance floor was full all night!! I had a great time.' 'Whole Lotta Shakin were the best - very professional, friendly and great entertainers. I would recommend them highly to anyone.' ” Read more

I was extraordinarily impressed not just by the professionalism which you exuded on the night, but also by the willingness to work within the often very strange demands of television. I'm not sure if you have had the chance to see the result on television, but you looked and sounded great. I also know that you could almost certainly have made a lot more money by turning us down and doing another show - so for that, as much as anything else, we are truly and deeply grateful. Many thanks once again” Read more

I just wanted to say a huge 'thank you' from James and myself for playing so wonderfully at our wedding on Bonfire Night. It really was such a pleasure to have you and your fellow band members there and we think you set the overall tone of the celebrations perfectly. Thank you also for being so flexible and coping with our ever changing schedule - who would have thought our guests would end up taking 3 hours over dinner rather than 2?! Thought you might also like to know that feedback from our guests was extremely enthusiastic and complimentary about your performance, so much so that some people who'd never normally dream of braving the dance floor found themselves wildly gyrating their way round it by the end of the evening. Our only regret was that you couldn't play all night. Should we ever decide to renew our vows we'll certainly be in touch again!!! Very best wishes to you and the rest of One Jump Ahead - you're great! ” Read more

Unfortunately as the speeches had run on a little, the first set was not that well received with people chatting and mingling by the bar.

Unfortunately as the speeches had run on a little, the first set was not that well received with people chatting and mingling by the bar. This did not effect the enthusiasm and quality of the band who carried on and brought the wedding into full swing. Kit was very friendly and although there was a little miss communication with regards to feeding the band (we supplied some sandwiches via the caterers) they said they should have hot food and so we had to invite them to have some of the buffet for our guests. Overall good band good music. ” Read more

“Thanks - we had a superb day. Wild were excellent - the ideal band for the moment and the audience. Please pass on my gratitude for their efforts and thank them for being flexible with timings and playlists - their old punk was first class.

“The band were fantastic. Firstly they were punctual and polite. They played exactly the right music for the audience. They played a wide range of rock and roll right through the decades and the disco was excellent. Our wedding guests ranged from early 30's to late 80's therefore we'd asked for no "cheesy" wedding music! We were not let down, they played something for everyone.

They played a wide range of rock and roll right through the decades and the disco was excellent. Our wedding guests ranged from early 30's to late 80's therefore we'd asked for no "cheesy" wedding music! We were not let down, they played something for everyone. Even our friends who already play in established bands, and the die hard "non rock and roll" guests were impressed. They definitely made our wedding reception. We are still receiving messages from delighted guests.” Read more
