Review Centre: Background Music Bands

"Thank you so much for playing at our wedding - you were fantastic and we had a wonderful time dancing with our guests! The evening was perfect, everything we had wished for. Everyone said how much they enjoyed it and you could really tell from all the laughing and smiling that the guests were having a great time. Some people had never been to a ceilidh before and I think they are now hooked! The music was wonderful and we really appreciated you playing some French folk dances for the French side of the family. From the moment we got in touch with you we knew you were the right band choice, as you were so friendly and professional. You went out of your way to make sure the evening went as planned. Thank you especially for letting us steal you away from your set-up to play us a few maypole tunes and for staying and helping us with the after ceilidh disco. Wishing you lots of good luck in the future and if we ever plan another ceilidh we know who to call!"

"They were excellent. They turned up on time, where very professional, well dressed and the quality of her voice was amazing; many of our guests commented on how wonderful Nicky was. We are very happy clients indeed and would happily recommend you and hope to use you again."

"We just wanted to very belatedly get in touch to say a huge thank you to you and Dorchester Strings for your beautiful performances for our wedding on 7 May. We had so many compliments on the day and since, including about at what a difference it made to the atmosphere. Everyone loved the ceremony music (even if it made so many of us cry!) and the impact on the drinks reception was just wonderful. We hope you could hear everyone up top clapping as you finished! The music choices got referenced by the best man during the speech later and you got a cheer in absentia. Our sincere thanks for such a beautiful, skilled addition to our celebration."

"Elysium Cello Duo was a fantastic choice for accompanying our wedding breakfast. They were professional, fun and excellent cellists. They gave us the opportunity to choose from an extensive playlist which includes classical, folk, jazz, pop music and film and TV tracks, and they even added a couple of our favourites from Les Miserables. Having a cellist duo gives more variation to the music as they play off each other - each taking on different aspects of the music. We would highly recommend them for any occasion where great music is wanted."

"Hi Kelvin, Just wanted to say thank you again for the music on Saturday - we absolutely loved it and so many of my friends have since told me that they thought your music was fantastic too, so we really appreciate it. I hope we'll see you playing out and about somewhere again soon! Laura Xxx"

"Oliver has been an absolute dream today, he played his music and sang so beautifully at our christening reception. The music he chose to perform was perfect for the room and occasion and he went above and beyond to make the day extra special even allowing one of the small children on stage to sing while he played guitar for him. Please, please, please seriously consider booking Oliver to perform at your event we certainly would reccomend him to anyone looking for an amazing singer with a great selection of songs and fun personality! Thank you so much again Oliver! "

"We hired the trio to play at our wedding ceremony. All of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the music before, during the after the ceremony. There was even some improvisation requires when the bride was 10 minutes late but the guys handled this wonderfully. They dealt so well and professionally with the celebrant and the staff at the venue and it was genuinely a pleasure to have them play at our wedding. Would highly recommend to anyone."

"I was lucky enough to have Noteworthy quartet play at my wedding. They put us at ease with a humour and good nature and helped make a special day unforgettable. John's melodic jazz and recent ventures into multi-phonics mark him as a unique talent in the UK jazz scene. 10/10!"
