We also had lots of great comments from our guests about how good they were. We also wanted to say thanks to you for the support and advice you provided in the run up to the wedding. It was really helpful in getting all of the timings for the evening just right."

"Thanks to MIB for a brilliant evening of music and dancing. I barely saw my new husband for not leaving the dance floor! Thanks for making our evening reception a memorable one, many people said it was the best wedding they have been to and I’m 100% sure the music had a lot to do with that!"

"Just a huge shout out to the band for playing my husbands party last Saturday. You were beyond fantastic, played longer than they were supposed to, shared the stage and their gear with a band they had never met. Utterly fab music. We have had so many letter commenting one of the best bands they have seen! Thanks for being so flexible with Country and Western show. We had a fab party, please pass on our thanks to all band members you made it hugely memorable and massive fun."

"The band were absolutely amazing, we could not have hoped for them to be as good as they were! The first dance song was perfect and they even learned one of our favourite songs for our 'second dance'. Everyone was great, but the lead singer was especially brilliant, her voice was stunning. Highly recommended. "

"The Lost played during our drinks reception and were brilliant! Thank you for creating such an amazing atmosphere and for learning a special request song for us. You played it amazingly well and it meant so much to us. Our guests all raved about your performance and we most definitely recommend The Innocent to anyone!"

"It’s March and still raining. I’ve trawled through some serious procrastination to decide where I’m going tonight; at least three decent live music offerings in Chester that I know of. And I’m sure the others were brilliant. The Original 90’s Britpop Experience are, in their own words, a “tribute to the British Britpop music scene” and a “powerful combination of passion and quality.” A tribute band, to me, equals lunatic professionalism. To tribute a whole scene is a big ask. Good covers bands are rare enough, taking that enormous and unlikely step beyond random amateur recreation. But these guys really do tick the box of perfectionists, professional curators though. Friday night was time travel night with a set list that captured the point where British alt-rock got (largely) happy and popular (in a good way). A guitar-dominated, looping and lurching opener with Ocean Colour Scene and The Riverboat Song; polished and convincing. The second song in and I’m braving the dance floor with the pointy-shooed brigade. A few songs further and they offer me proof of their professionalism. A very-very-very long time ago I was lucky enough to make it into Brixton Academy and unfortunate enough to catch James on a sincerely off night. And I’ve heard James and Sit Down many times since: at home, on the radio, in DJ sets and covered more than it should be. It's one of those beautiful songs that gets tired through overuse. And on this particular Friday night I heard it come alive; all vitality restored. There were the things I expected; a good dose of Blur and Oasis both, Stereophonics, Bluetones and more, then some referencing back to foundation stones with The Who and The Jam. The Original 90’s Britpop Experience switched between styles and musical voices with conviction; into acoustic things and seamlessly back out again. The magic of seeing grown men dance without a pint in hand happened repeatedly through the two sets. On any given set you pray for that one song you don’t see coming; the track you might flick through on the album that becomes something else entirely live. So it was with Blur’s Charmless Man. That perfect Blur poetry, is simple, direct and delivered with energy. The Original 90’s Britpop Experience are a good distance from being charmless. They are careful collectors and curators of songs; fine musicians and performers!"

"Hi Simon & Susie. Thank you for an excellent evening. Everybody loved and enjoyed the music and were really impressed by your super performance. I got endless compliments for finding such a suitable quality musical act. You both made our Christmas Dinner into a great evening out. Hope to see you back at Burghill Valley Golf Club before too long. Thanks again, John."
