"It was absolutely fantastic, Graham. Thanks so much for coordinating it all. The walk down to the venue from the buses with the band worked SO well and everyone loved it. Thanks for being part of such a special day!"

"I found Mike very helpful when arranging the requirements for the party. The music was of a good standard and the caller was very good at getting people involved in the dancing. I would happily recommend the band to others."

"A perfect duo for my birthday dinner party. They arrived on time and played gypsy jazz in the marquee whilst we enjoyed the banquet. They really added to the atmosphere of the evening!"

"We just wanted to drop you a quick email to say thank you so much for playing at our celebration last week - we thought you and the band were fantastic and loved dancing to your dulcet tones. Thank you for making our wedding celebration that extra bit special (it also made Sophie and James' entire evening and they've talked of nothing else since!)"

"Just a quick note to thank you again for a fabulous performance on Saturday. The surprise element worked out really well and all our guests were still talking about you in the taxi on the way home. We sent a clip to my mum (huge opera fan) in South Africa and she was in tears listening to the aria! :-) Thanks again for looking beautiful, your songbird singing and 'can-do' approach at planning stage. "

"What can I say? The band was brilliant. Great vocals from Johnny, ably supported by Mike on fiddle and Eddy on accordion. By the end of the night everyone was dancing and calling for more. The band couldn’t get off the stage! I’m keen to book for next year already! (Charlotte Prior on behalf of The Water Poet, Spitalfields, London)"

"We had the Kemptown Hot Club performing during an informal but very important dinner with prestigious guests. All the members are very talented as well as extremely kind and friendly. They tried their best in especially difficult circumstances, for sure their participation, patience and incredible great mood really made the difference in our event."

"Oscar and Dominic did an outstanding job at our wedding. We had quite a few requests, which they learnt quickly and then performed beautifully. We had an outdoors ceremony, which had to be moved inside during the drinks reception due to rain, then relocated again to a different building. Oscar and Dom moved their equipment very quickly to ensure our guests were kept entertained throughout. Both very friendly, professional and punctual, I would happily recommend them to anyone and hire them again if required."

"I just wanted to say such a huge thank you for the amazing performance that you gave. You were so friendly and willing to help in any way that any nervousness about getting up to dance was immediately dismissed. I was extremely apprehensive prior to the night about how the dancing would go down, especially with my two left feet! However my worrying was in vain, what a fantastic night of dancing it was, so inclusive that any and all can get up and get involved, aged 5 or 105. You need no experience or talent, just listen to the brilliant calling, it’s all simple moves but when it comes together with all your friends and family on the night, prepare to be amazed. I can not thank the band enough for making our Wedding such a fantastic night, I have never seen so many people thoroughly enjoying themselves all at once. I can sincerely recommend the Black Velvet Band for any social occasion, your expectations will be exceeded."
