"If you're looking for a band that keeps your guests entertained and on the dance floor, I highly recommend Grupo Carnival. They played a mix of funk, soul and Latin-inspired tunes that had everyone dancing all night. Their incorporation of Brazilian music was a nice touch which added an extra layer of fun and was original. The band know how to create a fun and vibey atmosphere and they were a pleasure to work with. Overall, I would definitely recommend Grupo Carnival for anyone in search of a wedding band that can deliver great music and a fun night. They made our special day a memorable one. "

"Rachel has a great voice and really made the party special. Personal touches and all my favourite songs were included. Can highly recommend her, you will not be sorry. The line dancing and music was brilliant. Fun, friendly and a very professional musician who made the event. A great mix of country classics and pop as well as crowd pleasers."

"I just wanted to take a moment and send you a note of thanks for the performance thatJock Rock turned in on July 1st at our daughter's wedding. We have all seen bands that simply mail it in and go through their sets as if they justwant it to be over with. The energy and enthusiasm that the band generated at our reception was simply infectious and you ignited the entire crowd into a wonderful frenzy. The Scots, Brits, Irish, Americans and others in our audience had the best time ever and couldn't tell us enough how much they loved your performance. But in addition to showing us that you are world-class entertainers, I was also very touched by your humanity. We are an extremely close family so in all candour it is sometimes difficult for me to have my daughter live across the pond where I don't get to visit with her as often as I can with her two sisters who live in the States. Her favourite song is Somewhere Over the Rainbow because it speaks to her in a very real way. We were disappointed when we learned that the band did not have that song on your playlist because we thought that it would make the Father/Daughter dance is so incredibly meaningful. One of the greatest surprises of the night was when we realized that you had taken the time to learn the song and played it for us for our dance. You took the time and effort to emotionally connect with the bride and her father on her special day and we can't thank you enough for that. "

"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!"

"I had the pleasure of seeing the band at The Strode Arms at the weekend and it was fabulous. If you live around Somerset, I highly recommend going to see them or maybe book them for your party/venue "

"So glad we booked you for Jo's 40th. Everyone had such a good night and the background tunes between dances while we all poured outside the hall to catch our breaths were just perfect, thanks again. "

"These guys played at my friend's wedding yesterday. They were absolutely amazing. They did a great mix of songs and had everyone dancing, clapping and stomping their feet. Don't hesitate to book them If you have a chance"

"Everyone said how good the band was and we certainly enjoyed the music too. We opted for a 'package' deal which included a drummer who also DJ'd for us. All in all great music, great service which added to our wonderful night, couldn't have asked for better. They had everyone dancing, embraced some quirkyness and fun and I know our friends have tried to book the band for their wedding, unfortunately the band already had other commitments but i've passed on the bands details to many of our guests."
