"We booked the band for our wedding reception back in October. We are both huge Irish music fans and have had several memorable trips to Ireland so it was especially important to us to have a live Irish band on our big day. We spend a fair amount of time looking for the "perfect Irish band" and were over the moon to have found The Extonions. From the initial enquiry Mac was both friendly and very professional. He instantly made us feel like we had made the right decision and was more than happy to include any special song requests we had. He then made sure they included on the night and that everyone had a great time. All the band members were lovely and friendly chatting to our guests and fitted in perfectly with our relaxed party atmosphere. Many of our guests have commented on how great they were and we would not hesitate in booking them again in the future or recommending them to others. Thanks so much for making our wedding day so memorable."

"Blue Jewel absolutely nailed their two sets for our wedding with their impeccable musicianship, excellent repertoire list, clear calling and easy-going good humour. Half the wedding party was made up of discerning (even after a few glasses) professional musicians, and everyone was completely delighted. They're still talking about it, not least that troika. Cracking first dance too, very easy for the newly-weds. Steve was also really easy to communicate with before the event, which took a lot of stress out of the wedding planning. Worth every penny. Not planning to get married again but hopefully we'll find another occasion to book them again soon! "

"We hired Danny as part of a line up of local musicians to play at our festival wedding. His guitar playing is a pleasure to watch. His style is natural and relaxed with the odd blues flourish thrown in for good measure. His voice is powerful and soulful - everyone in the tent was captivated by his performance. He's also a very friendly lad and seemed genuinely happy to play to our guests! A number of our guests had asked whether he had CDs available to buy. (Danny - please get some more CDs pressed. The oldies don't do streaming media!) A very memorable act."

"Everyone really enjoyed it" Thank you Mick and the Wraggle Taggle band for an excellent Saturday afternoon (22nd July 2023 Saturday Lauderdale House, Waterlow Park, , Highgate Hill, London N6 5HG). Everyone really enjoyed it. Shame we couldn't stay and join in but it would.have been too much for Paul. Sheer determination and steroids were the only thing that worked plus 3 guys to get him downstairs. Still we now have all the memories and photos to enjoy. All best wishes to you Janet Boorman 26th July 2023"

"Vintage Riffs were absolutely superb. A lovely group of musicians who exuded warmth and fun, were extremely professional and had the most amazing set. Everyone commented on how great they were. The dance floor was packed from start to finish. A wonderful end to a perfect day. The organising and booking procedure was very straightforward and stress free. I would definitely recommend - thank you!"

"Iron Broo played at our wedding reception and I cannot rate them highly enough. From our initial contact through to the wedding day the service was very professional and efficient. On the night itself they were fantastic. They helped create a great atmosphere and got everyone up on the dance floor, sentiments echoed by several of our guests. I would not hesitate to recommend Iron Broo or to book them again. They capped off a perfect wedding day for us."

"The Bilberries performed at my husband’s 50th birthday bash at our local, The Plough Inn, Coldharbour. They were awesome, playing some well known songs with a twist. The lead singer has an amazing voice and they got our guests joining in singing and dancing. They even got birthday boy singing!! They made it a fantastic celebration and I would recommend them 100%.

"Danny sang for our wedding reception. What can I say everyone (and I mean everyone) said he was utterly fantastic. He learnt a new song especially for me to walk down the isle and playing a delightful mixture throughout the afternoon. He quite literally made our day. Book this guy. You will not regret it. Thanks again Danny you're REALLY great. "
