"Simon was fantastic, his play list was brilliant. He had everybody up on their feet dancing. Made the party really special. Heather had a great voice and was a great asset. Everyone really enjoyed the music. The choice was great and I would thoroughly recommend Simon if you want your party to go with a bang. He was really professional, enthusiastic and a pleasure to deal with. Thanks so much Simon !!!! Jo"

"If you love the stripped-back, chilled-out style of a Live Lounge, this trio is right up your street. With amazing vocals, top-notch musicianship, and the ability for turning hit songs into something fresh and unique, they brought a relaxed yet energetic vibe to our big day. Their setlist is full of well-known tunes, but each one has a cool acoustic twist. Whether it’s a slowed-down version of a dance track or a soulful take on a pop classic, they make every song feel new. If you’re after live music that’s both familiar and refreshingly different, this trio is a winner. Laid-back, feel-good vibes all the way."

"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! We had a fab party, please pass on our thanks to all band members you made it hugely memorable and massive fun."

"We hired The Blue Suede Shoes for our wedding reception in May. We had already married abroad but wanted to have a larger gathering back in the UK where we could invite everyone. On the day we had about 150 people, from new-born's to a couple of ladies who were 90+. So the entertainment was quite important to get right. We didn't know what we were looking for at first, we knew we wanted live music, but we had to cater for all tastes and ages. The Blue Suede Shoes were the first band that both my (new) wife and I agreed on instantly. Thankfully they were available, even though they are Surrey based they were willing to travel deep into Kent. They have a generous play list to choose from, and even have a 'handbook' on their website with a few hints and tips about booking live music (not just restricted to weddings etc...). Importantly, they were willing to learn a couple of other tracks for us - one was our first dance and another was a Robbie Williams track which is one of my wife's favourites. From the start of the booking process Ben was very informative, clear and helpful at every stage. He was easily contacted and able to offer advice where needed. On the day of the reception the band turned up early and started to set-up without any fuss. We had a family friend DJ-ing in the same area in the evening and by the time I'd come over to greet them they'd already sorted everything out themselves. Our reception was in a marquee outside and the weather alternated between strong sunshine and torrential rain. Even though the band had a set-list, they seemed to be able to play appropriate songs for the moment. Playing 'Ain't no sunshine when she's gone' in the middle of torrential rain made everyone laugh and kept peoples spirits up. The band were also happy to ad-lib a bit for the bridal entrance which was very much appreciated. They were great musicians, willing to interact with the guests and very friendly indeed. We would recommend them without question, not just for a wedding but for any party or gathering that needed live music. They were loud enough to be heard, but not so loud that you had to shout over them. The music was perfect to sit and listen to, but energetic enough for many people to get up and dance or it and tap their feet to. Thanks for helping to make or reception so memorable. Matt & Kim"

"I admit that I know one of these guys, I’m a customer of his in his day job. John told me he played in a band. I was blown away by these guys, never expected that from our local fishmonger !"

"We had Metrobeats at my parents 60th wedding anniversary party and they were excellent. They were very accommodating and booking was easy and straightforward. Their price was also very competitive. I can highly recommend them. "

"This was such a cool gig and 70s inspired is the best. The people, the band and the staff was on point. It was fun, rad and the best atmosphere. I can honestly say I can’t wait to come here again. The best bands ever and nice to speak to everyone afterwards. I have recommended this gig to everyone I have spoken to and will continue to do so."

"I just wanted to drop you a quick email, now we’re back down to earth, regarding our wedding on New Year’s Eve at the Langrish House Hotel in Petersfield. We have received lots of comments from guests who thoroughly enjoyed your music and said that it was perfect for the occasion and got everyone up and dancing. I would like to also say that I thought your band were exceptionally professional and friendly and made sure that all our personal requests were fulfilled. Thank you very much, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you! If you ever wish to use my name as a reference for other people considering booking you, please do not hesitate to do so. Kind Regards, Jane"
