What do people who have booked you say about you?

"Thank you very much Newland Seekers for playing at our Cricket Dinner. Your music really made the evening - a great selection to which everyone enjoyed dancing. I asked Bea (the reverend) if dancing was okay in the church. She said, God would be pleased. Thank you again. Hope you will be able to play again in June for our match" Rodney Bicton, Newland Cricket Club Annual Dinner Dance
"What a brilliant choice of bands for the hall. Not only were there many up dancing, adults and children alike, to songs that were familiar, but the sound level meant that those not participating were able to hold a decent conversation too. Thankyou Newland Seekers". Jane Brackstone, Narth Village Hall.
" I booked Nev & Russ to perform at a mini festival I'd organised for my dad. They are such lovely guys, absolutely brilliant performers, and did an amazing job at getting the party started. They had also kindly learnt and performed one of my dad's favourite songs which I was really grateful for. Thanks
