"We booked R45 on more than one occasion to perform for a private function for Bakkavour Party in the Park, they were amazing and had the crowds dancing from the start. They are a professional and talented band and they didn’t fail to entertain! They played a variety of tracks that appealed to everyone! On both occasions that they attended the event R45 were great, a band that everyone loves as they play all genres and think about the audience. I would highly recommend R45 to anyone looking to book a band . You won’t be disappointed - These guys are awesome, you won't regret it, they really are an amazing young group of lads."

"We booked The Pedal Tones for our rustic farm wedding just outside Caernarfon in North Wales and they were outstanding. Nothing was too much trouble, even learning two reasonably difficult special requests for my husband! You played a perfect mix to please both our tastes in music and it’s been an absolute delight dealing with you from start to finish. Will definitely be booking you again - just need to come up with an excuse for another party! Thank you so much! Sioned & Gwyn x"

"We hired The Blue Suede Shoes for our wedding in June 2014. We could not of been happier with the band. Not only did they put on an amazing show, they were extremely helpful, responsive and adaptable throughout the entire process. The initial information package was very clear regarding logistical requirements and gave us all the information the wedding venue required. In the months leading up to the wedding, The Blue Suede Shoes were very helpful anytime we had a question. On our wedding day, we pre-planned a general band play schedule, but with over-running dinner and speeches, that largely was discarded. The Blue Suede Shoes were very adaptable to our changing schedule. (They were so adaptable, they even brought the bass outside to the beach to help one of our friends who wanted to do a ukulele song at sunset!) The Blue Suede Shoes’ music was fantastic with a great range that all of our guests enjoyed. They also did a great job learning our first dance song. On whatever scale, The Blue Suede Shoes get top marks! "

"Just got back from honeymoon and wanted to say a massive thank you to you & the rest of the band, you all did such an incredible job at our wedding bringing the party to life in the evening & I did not get off the dance floor all night! Not only that but you went that extra mile to learn "hold on" especially for me & it was such a special treat to have all my friends dancing to my favourite song. I can't thank you enough for everything you helped to make our day the most amazing day of our life, I could not recommend you more highly. Let us know when you have a local gig coming up as would love to come & see you."

"The band were outstanding, I cannot recommend them highly enough, there was an issue with the caterers and they pushed their set back and changed a few things, which really helped. Rhiannon's voice is incredible. They were professional, flexible and just damn right amazing "

"They was at Churston Golf Club on Friday 6th of May 2018, WOW! I'm a big Debbie Harry & Blondie fan and I love my ska & reggae music so was a big deal for me and I was not disappointed, they were brilliant, after just one song early in the evening they had the dance floor filled all night, sounded like Blondie too, they did songs from the Specials, Madness ,The Beat, even did an Oasis cover and many more, great entertainment, great value as they did over their time as well as everyone was shouting more, can't recommend them highly enough, they will definitely be at Churston Golf Club in Devon again. Thanks guys for a brilliant night, also played tracks from their CD on Sunday morning on my radio show. Steve ( THE Cockney Rebel) Finch"

"We were more than happy with the band. It was a great experience for the guests and host, everyone commented on how good they were. They were well suited to the venue and created a great atmosphere. We would be more than happy to recommend Blackthorn and your service in the future."

"In December 2013 we went to see local band Licksquid at the Poet and Castle in Codnor,Derbyshire. We had previously seen them on just a couple of occasions and had really enjoyed their performance. During this evening I enquired if they were available to play at our daughters 21st birthday party in September 2014. Luckily they were available and I booked Licksquid that same evening. During the months which followed, my hubby and myself watched the band at various venues and loved every minute of each performance. We genuinely felt that each time was even better than the previous ones and we were really pleased we had them booked in for Chloe's party. When the date finally came around they went down a storm. They filled the dancefloor and created an amazing atmosphere with their fabulous playlist which covers a fair few decades. One thing that really shone through for me was their lovely banter with each other. It made the evening and our friends and family had a brilliant time. All three of them created an atmosphere which I can only describe as buzzing. It all went without a hitch. Well done lads. You are all a credit to yourselves and each other. We will always remember Chloe's 21st with fondness."

"I booked 'It Takes Two' to play at my 60th Birthday party. What a fantastic show. Everything we asked for and more. Kelly and Graham are two exceptional performers and entertained my guests perfectly. The Country and Western themed party was a blast. What a great way to celebrate my day. The playlist rocked the party. Thank you so much both, simply fabulous. Thoroughly recommended. X"

We really can't think how it could have been better with almost everyone dancing and great sounds throughout. We very much enjoyed your addition of our Mandy to the band too! Cheers.........Alex"
