Review Centre: Bands with DJ's

"The choice of band proved to be the perfect one. I booked five musicians to play swing and jazz for while our guests were dining. Little did I know a family member had arranged a special song close to me and my wife to be performed at the end. Everybody joined us to dance and the band went into some Motown songs and everyone kept dancing for an extra half an hour. I am so grateful to James and the band for their efforts. Brilliant musicians, but it goes beyond just playing music, they care about fine details to make your event special and were so charming with guests and family members. I had everybody comment on the entertainment and I personally recommend The Marvellous Motown Souls!"

"We had a party for circa 60 people, aged 30 to mid 80s. Liaised with Andy in advance about possible playlists and songs we particularly wanted them to play. Very smooth and easy. Everything on the night went extremely well (despite our timings changing). The band were absolutely fantastic - great musicians and choice of songs - and kept the dance floor occupied from the first track to the last. Highly recommended."

"Excellent DJ for our wedding at The Square, Bristol. Alex kept the dancefloor filled all evening which was brilliant, just what we wanted. They gave us the option to provide requests in advance and were really flexible when we said we wanted to do something a bit different for our first dance. On the night, Alex adapted to our guests, not just sticking to the usual wedding playlist but tailoring the music to what we were enjoying most. We had a fantastic time. Thank you!"

Amazing xxx"

"Mitch was great. We wanted to stay away from the traditional cheesy wedding DJ, so booked Mitch as a live DJ set. The drums added a great dynamic and Mitch was accommodating from the start. We got a call to discuss exactly what kind of music we wanted and he delivered. Mitch is responsive, arrived promptly and was great value for money. Thanks for being part of our day!"

"Planning a wedding is really complicated and there are so many hard decisions, so let’s make this an easy one - just book the Hot Hats! Alfie and the team are absolutely phenomenal, if you want a fun acoustic duo who’ll draw people to the floor or get spontaneous dancing at the bar, these really are your guys. Their choice of music was brilliant and had the full range to suit everyone, all played perfectly. I’ve seen a number of duos at weddings and whilst many are great musicians, many can be quite sterile, getting up, doing their thing and leaving - the Hot Hats most definite aren’t. They are super-friendly and the audience engagement is amazing, I spent as much time laughing along with them as I did dancing and they expertly wield that engagement to draw people into the party. Having perfectly read the room, they led us into the perfect night of entertainment! The engagement with Alfie beforehand was brilliant and he made the whole process really straightforward and the day itself also couldn’t have been easier - the Hot Hats turned up early, sorted everything with the venue and even stepped in when we forgot to announce we were cutting the cake! They handle everything musical, they come with some great kit and even run DJ sessions between their sets so you get the full musical package. So save yourself some party-planning time and just go for them - you really won’t regret it!"

"We booked Overdrive for our Wedding in May this year and wow we have nothing but amazing things to say about them and every aspect of their performance!! In the build up to the wedding Overdrive was incredibly helpful and quick to respond to any questions or concerns. After a couple of exchanges of messages, Nora recommended that we saw them at one of their residency evenings in Henley which was so exciting. Nora made such an effort to make us feel welcome and get to know us personally! Overdrive were so supportive, offering us great advice on what the best flow for the day would be, really demonstrating their knowledge and expertise. On the day we didn't have to worry about any logistics and they were set up and ready to go as soon as we got to the reception venue. Overdrive started off with their Ibiza Chills set for the drinks reception, providing the perfect background music to a glass of fizz and some canapes. The evening followed with their 4-piece band, setting off the dance floor with a bang after the first dance! The performance was incredible and they had everyone on the dancefloor for every second possible. They brought such great energy and it was so nice to have them getting involved with the guests. All of our guests have been so complimentary of Overdrive, saying what a fantastic vibe they brought to the night, how incredible the music was, and how much fun they had. Moreover, our photographer was in absolute awe of their tunes and proceeded to stay for the rest of their set! It was so fantastic seeing how our vendors worked together with such professionalism to promote each others businesses, all whilst bringing together such a beautiful day for us. If you're planning an event then we cannot recommend them enough, and we are already looking for any excuse to have another party so we can book them again!! If you still don't believe us - We highly recommend checking out their socials. You can really get a flavour for their incredible sound, vibe, and party atmosphere!"

"The band were great, arrived on time, set up and to be honest we only saw them when they played. They played a great set list that pleased the audience! They were polite and friendly through the entire event, even during the stage invasion by my dog."
