"Havana Sound were the perfect addition to our corporate networking event, and provided a fantastic ambiance and atmosphere to the evening! The trio sounded incredible, and working with Alessandro and Sarah-Jane in the lead up was seamless and very easy. I would highly recommend them for any kind of event!"

"Just outstanding! Utterly professional from the first contact to the end of the wedding party, the Blue Jewel was a component that I really did not have to worry about and boy, did they deliver! The guests had a fabulous time; so much laughter and joy down to the littlest people! Great clear calling, never patronising, using our names and lots of lovely personal touches by Kip, who is a superb caller. The band showed great musicianship and were a complete asset. Lots of guests commented how good they were and what a great time they had at the Ceilidh. I recommend Blue Jewel without any reservation."

"Absolutely amazing. Played at our daughter's wedding. Great entertainment. The guests were surprised and loved them. Haven't been to a wedding with a brass band. Would highly recommend. 😁"

"Nora and Josh were absolutely fantastic right from the second I sent an enquiry through. Their communication was fast and everything covered right up until the day. The actual set itself was amazing, the crowd loved the upbeat vibes and Nora’s voice was incredible! Will definitely be rebooking for future dates! Thank you"

"We booked Americana for our anniversary Barn Dance which was attended by around 200 people. They had a caller who helped everyone learn the steps. It was a great evening! We had the opportunity to discuss what was wanted directly with the band prior to the event which was helpful and reassuring. The band subsequently put together a great set with a fabulous selection of songs which were performed brilliantly. The interval music was also well received. We had nothing but positive feedback from our guests, so a successful evening! Very happy with our choice of band for this special event."

"Tim and Band.... Just a quick note to say .. "Thank You" from us both for literally playing an important part of our day. Many of our guests have commented on how fantastic the band were! Your version of "Suddenly" our first dance song was amazing ?..Perfect in everyway. Your set list was perfect and was exactly what we wanted. Upbeat, Disco, Funky , Pop. .everything from old school to modern day. A tight sounding band and great vocals. We would highly recommend you and can't wait to see you all again. "

"I wanted to email to say a massive thank you to you and the rest of the band. As I hoped the band was brilliant. Playing the first song was a touch, especially as I wasn’t expecting the sax. It was great to hear you play the Irish Rover after the interval as it got everyone up off their seats in their droves. I’ve been to in excess of 30 weddings and you guys are by far the best gig I’ve seen, and I thought this after I saw you at Caroline and Geoff's wedding. I’ve countless comments from those who were at my wedding saying you were brilliant. Thanks again. I can’t praise you chaps highly enough."

"We had Urban Knights for our wedding and they were absolutely fantastic!!! Their set list had everyone up on the dance floor- it was never empty. In the lead-up Rhona their manager was great to chat to. I could not recommend Urban Knights enough. "

"Funk it Up! played two amazing sets at our International Women’s Day Dance in Whitstable in March 2024. They were fantastic from beginning to end! Communication was great before the gig and they were friendly, accessible and professional throughout. They played a wide range of fabulous music which was spot on and had all our guests dancing and singing along. All the band are great musicians but what a coup to have such a fantastic, confident woman at the top of her game on lead vocals, epitomising the theme of this event. We’ve had such positive comments since the gig and I can’t recommend this band highly enough."

"A huge thank you to the guys at the Spectrum for entertaining our guests at the LAM Action Charity Ball on Saturday 30th September 2017 in Birmingham! We raised £15,500 which will go straight into research towards finding a cure for a rare lung disease, which is simply amazing and our guests all had a fantastic time singing and dancing to your great music! I would highly recommend you as a band, you were absolutely brilliant! Please can we book you for Sat 28th Sept 2019 for the next Ball!?"
