Review Centre: Bands & Ensembles

"Thanks so much for an excellent afternoon/evening’s entertainment.  …   We knew to expect a great evening but you exceeded that expectation by a mile!  … you delivered a set that had everyone young and not so young up on the dance floor at some point.  There were even a few folk who refused to believe that this was the same guy who a few hours earlier had been playing Spanish guitar on the terrace while we drank champagne in the glorious sunshine …"

"We booked 21c together with their DJ after having trawled through a list of many other bands. We were NOT disappointed. The communication between Helen, their manager and Jay the lead singer was faultless, they discussed every detail and made sure all our requirements were met, nothing was too much trouble. We weren’t at the venue at the time of their arrival and setup but everything was in place at the given time and the DJ had just started. The band/DJ were polite, friendly and well presented. Their sound was amazing, a lot of cover bands just do not get it right, this is something you cannot say about this band. They were rocking right from the very first song. Their mix of older and newer was very well balanced, so all ages were on the floor having a great time. We can honestly say that they well exceeded our expectations. We have had numerous texts come through saying what a brilliant evening it was and where did we find them! They were worth every penny, entertainment is the most important thing to ensure an event goes well and we couldn’t have asked for a more successful evening."

"Amazing ! What can we say! Communication excellent, incredibly professional, on time, blended into the party when not performing, involved the guests and they are a super talented bunch! People are still talking about you a few days on. Thank you so much to Jimmy Gaston & Mark. Hope to book you again in the future. "

"Very accomplished. They gave us all a wonderful performance with an extensive range of music from classical to pop. Both my wife and I together with all our guests were delighted and extremely impressed. If you are looking for a musical accompaniment at your event I would have no hesitation in recommending them. They made the evening a more than special occasion."

"Can I say how wonderful the performance was! The bride wept at the surprise of the music being played as she entered the reception. The musicians were charming and the music superb. It was the best decision I made for the day and fitted so well with the vibe of the day."

Kind regards Jackie , Mike and Whiston Town Council "

"Heart&Soul performed the perfect duo set during our afternoon reception including some of our favourite songs. We couldn't believe how awesome the full band was when it got to the evening. They blew everyone away and we danced all night. Definitely a highlight of our day!"

"We were looking for a band with a repertoire of jump jive and swing music for our wedding reception and found One Jump Ahead. The band did such a great job, they had such great energy, and our guests loved dancing to their music. There was good variety of songs so that our non-swing dancing guests could show of their moves too! We loved the first dance and really appreciate the band learning the song for us, we hope they will continue to play it in their future gigs. We had very good communication with Kit in the run up to the wedding and the band were able to set up by themselves which made things run smoothly for us, and were very flexible and relaxed on the night. We'll be recommending you to our family and friends for future events!"

Thanks Sherri! It was a really great reception, made all the better by the lovely sunny weather we had. It was excellent that many of your guests were swing dancers - we always like to play for them! (It's still a pleasure playing for other dancers, too, of course - or even those who prefer just to listen!) We enjoyed learning your request and will be very likely include it in our sets at future wedding receptions. We're only too happy for you to pass on our details to family and friends for other occasions. We hope that you and Tom have a long and happy life together! - Kit.

"I just wanted to drop you a quick email to tell you how fantastic you were on Friday for our Christmas Party. I have had so many people come up to me and compliment the music and how great the jazz trio were. It really set the scene of the evening and sounded beautiful. I was so happy with it all as were all the party attendees. I can’t praise you enough. Thank you again so much for a wonderful performance. I would recommend you again and again!!"

"I couldn’t recommend Kirsty enough for an event or wedding. She was amazing from start to finish, had great communication and totally got the kind of vibe we wanted for our wedding. She arrived on the day and set up super smoothly. She knew exactly what to play and when and from the first dance the dance floor was a hit. She was great fun behind the DJ booth as well. Music was such an important part of the day for me and Kirsty absolutely delivered and more! I was 5 months pregnant at my wedding and I think I danced more than anyone else – the music was that good."
