Review Centre: Soul Bands

"We booked Radio Dukes for our wedding back in June, and it was so refreshing to deal directly with a band! Mitch was really friendly, helpful and responsive from the beginning. We booked quite late in the day (our engagement to wedding process was only 5 months long!) but Radio Dukes certainly delivered on the night, playing a number of songs we’d specially requested, Reef: Place Your Hands, complete with a couple of lyrics changes so it became first dance material :) Red hot chilli peppers: Can’t Stop, which everybody loved. And not forgetting B52s: Love Shack which our friend and female vocalist got involved with, thank you! The dance floor was full all night, with something for everyone, from grandparents to work colleagues, to friends on space hoppers. We’ve had so many compliments since, so thank you Radio Dukes for your fantastic music! May you have a joyful, gig-filled 2019! X"

"We wanted to just say THANK YOU SO MUCH for being part of our perfect wedding day. The wedding was everything we could have ever hoped for. We had so much fun and we feel so blessed to have had so many of our wonderful friends and family there with us. Everyone had an amazing time and everyone enjoyed the music thoroughly. In fact, everything went to plan perfectly, the music was amazing throughout the day and so well executed! The sax at the reception was fabulous, even the weather was perfect, so we couldn't be happier! Then the music at dinner was great and the live band in the event… well just phenomenal! Our first dance was just perfect and we enjoyed every second of it! Andy, you have been a complete pleasure to deal with and given me such confidence from day one that the music for the event was under control and you delivered on your promise! THANK YOU!"

"We booked Callum to sing during our cocktail hour for our wedding. From making first contact with him to during the event to after, Callum had our best interests at heart. He answered all of our queries. He turned up on time. He sang and played the guitar beautifully! He gave us song options before hand and allowed us to give any other suggestions. He followed the mood of the crowd perfectly and chose his songs accordingly. We received so many good compliments from our guests who were very impressed with Callum. Will definitely book again if looking for a singer."

"Katie & Stephen have jetted off to Antigua for a couple of weeks and no doubt they will want to thank you themselves on their return, but we wanted to get in touch ourselves to say how great the band were on Sunday. Everyone enjoyed the music and without doubt they contributed a great deal to making it an unforgettable experience, not only for Katie & Stephen, but all the guests as well; they really got the party started. Many thanks again!"

"Thank you so much Maria and the band for playing at my wife Beth's 30th birthday in Leeds on Friday. Many of the guests have been asking after you since then and many were much later home on the night than they planned as they were too busy dancing! The choice of songs, the quality of the playing and vocal - it was all excellent, perfect for the party and made the night that much more special. You were also very friendly and helpful before and after the party and great to have around on the night. Thank you! "

"Absolutely amazing live entertainment! The whole room was singing along and clapping. Will definitely be booking tickets again. Acapela studios Cardiff is a great but little venue for an intimate gig, well worth it!"

"I just wanted to drop you a note to say how brilliant you and your band were at our wedding. Everyone has said just how great you were. We were both over the moon with your session – It really added the icing on a wonderful day. I hear that friends of ours have booked you as well for next year! This means I can enjoy the music rather than worrying about everything being on time! Thank you again."

"We booked Urban Myth for our wedding reception after seeing them at a gig in our local pub. They were sensational at the gig and out of this world at our wedding. I have never seen a dancefloor full, and spilling over, from the first dance to the last second of the encore. They were brilliant and kept our guests entertained and energised all night. Thank you so, so much for a wonderful experience"

Everyone was blown away by the music and you were so flexible and accommodating as well as being Top Blokes! Please pass on our huge thanks to the band for making it the most memorable and special 40th party EVER! "

"Quite simply – Let's Dance made our wedding reception incredible! When planning our wedding we initially weren’t going to have a band, simply a local DJ. However, I am so glad we changed our mind! We first saw HATHRs at The World Bar in Resorts World and they totally blew us away. They got almost everyone up on the dancefloor and as soon as they played Moloko I was sold! We booked them the very next day. They were even able to offer a DJ set for us too which worked so well! We loved their repertoire and when we requested a few of our favourite songs they practiced them at once and gave us the green light. These songs (including The Cranberries and Arctic Monkeys) went down an absolute storm and the dancefloor was packed out all night long! From start to finish they were just brilliant. They arrived on time, set up quickly and smoothly and even let my bridesmaids play backing singers for a little while! Their chemistry as a band is clear for all to see and we had so many comments from guests who just loved the atmosphere they gave our wedding party. So, if you’re getting hitched… THIS IS THE WEDDING BAND YOU NEED!"

"I have been lucky enough to hear/see Unwritten Duo many times now, at events, a Wedding and at gigs, each time is always a quality beautiful sound, with real passion and enthusiasm! I’m also lucky enough to have them booked for my wedding next year! I can’t wait."

"Motown Memories were better than we could ever have imagined. They got everyone on the dance floor, dancing until our feet were hurting, all guests commented on how amazing the band were. Their song choices were perfect, Ione has a phenomenal voice and got the crowd going throughout. Thank you so so much for being part of our special day."
