"Hi Gordon, We can't begin to thank you and the band enough for making Friday such a special evening. Helen was really looking forward to dancing with all her friends and the music you played certainly made people want to get up and join in, even oldies like me. Thank you also for managing the ceilidh dancing so well in a very restricted amount of space. We had expected just a few people to take part but were overwhelmed by the numbers and the enthusiasm. Helen had forewarned a number of her friends about the dances we were having so a few had taken advantage of the YouTube tutorials available but the success was all down to yourself. We both realised that you played for much longer than initially envisaged so thank you very much for that. Best wishes!"

"Nicky, Jake and Richie provided exactly the blend of music we were hoping for to entertain a fun loving mixed age group at our 50th wedding anniversary. It offered rich entertainment while allowing guest to converse and mingle - and later on the opportunity for hitting the dance floor, even at our advanced age! We would happily hire them again and recommend them to our friends. Paul & Rosie"

"Funk With Us were just fantastic! We got married in August, and after the last year or so, it was just magical to be able to have a good dance with friends and family, and the band encouraged everyone to get up and dance - and that is what everyone did! Having a live band makes such a difference to the day, and we would truly recommend them. So many of our friends and family have been saying how very impressed they were with the band and that they absolutely loved the music and dancing. You were FANTASTIC!! ? Lilac and Remko were so helpful through the whole planning of the big day and answered all our questions. It was lovely to have a video chat to discuss the running of the day and 'meet' them before the Wedding day! They are both such friendly and fun people and reassured us we had definitely made the right choice with having a band! Thank you so much, you and your band will always hold a very special place in our hearts! ❤️"

"Golden Gospel came and sang on our front step and brought some real Christmas cheer to Rye Lane - it brought people as together as they could be during Tier 4, and really made it feel like Christmas. We'd definitely recommend them and hoping we can do the same next year!"

"These guys rock! I am the promoter at Slim Jim's Liquor Store and I highly recommend these guys, a safe bet when you want the crowed at your bar to sing along with the band, they really know how to interact with the public Great selection of music covered by amazing musicians. They will be a regular act at Slim Jim's Liquor Store."

"I booked The BV's to perform at The Balmoral Hotel, Edinburgh on 20th May 2017 as part of a programme to present some of the finest acts from Edinbugh and beyond in the iconic setting of Palm Court. Since then I have booked The BV's a number of times and have come to rely on their high standard of performance and their flexible approach particularly in the different musician line ups they can offer for different performances. Their collective professional experience and musicianship I have come to hold in high regard."

"I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and to the band for Saturday night. I had anticipated the excitement, but what I hadn’t expected was the wonderful, joyous sound of the band, and what an effect it would have on everyone. The trumpet was so beautiful! It really was a special experience and better than I could have imagined. Laura was surprised and delighted and is still talking about it now. Please pass on a massive thank you to Franco and the band. And of course thanks for your patience and organisation!"

"Gary played at my sixtieth birhday party in March 2012. It was amazing. Somehow he managed to include all my favourite songs we have enjoyed singing along and dancing to over the years. Hope my wife has his number in her diary for my seventieth!"

"Peared's performance was fun and informal whilst being high quality. Their set had the grown-ups singing and toe tapping whilst the kids danced and/or sat enchanted. Organising everything was so easy and friendly and on the day they set up and packed down with minimum fuss. I will be booking again - 10/10!"
