5 stars - The Glow are Highly Recommended
booked The Glow for their wedding in Berkshire May 2025

“The Glow were a great band for our wedding! Nathalie was incredibly friendly and easy to work with prior to the day, with a great range of songs to choose from. On the day itself they were prompt and discreet during set-up, then really helped get the party going during their sets! The vocals and instruments were all excellent and everyone had a fantastic time. Would thoroughly recommend!”


Best band ever!

“We cannot recommend this band highly enough! Their roaming set during the afternoon created the perfect atmosphere for our cocktail hour — our guests are still raving about it. And the evening performance absolutely brought the party to life. The music, the energy, the talent — just incredible. A special thank you for giving our son the chance to perform with you — a moment we’ll never forget. Sim...”

Thanks for being part of our special day! Jon and Olivia”

My 60th birthday party

5 stars - The Edge are Highly Recommended
booked The Edge for their party in Bristol May 2025

“Excellent- upbeat- very friendly, experienced band that confidently played all the songs that we had requested plus more. Read their audience well and even my partner - who has never been known to dance in public - he was on the dance floor - and that’s a miracle!”


They blew us away.

5 stars - The Lucky Sons are Highly Recommended
booked The Lucky Sons for their event May 2025

“Honestly, I didn’t know what to expect but they blew us away. Proper good musicians and they made the night feel really special. A lot of our team said it was the best band we’ve had at one of our events, and we’ve been running these for years. They were flexible too — keeping the volume just right for the start of the night, then turning it up when people wanted to dance. ...”
