"The Leathernecks played our wedding on Saturday and absolutely blew everyone away. They had the dance floor full for the entirety of both sets & had the crowd chanting for more afterwards. The venue owner commented that they were the best wedding band she had seen & took their card and one of our friends who is getting married next year has already said she is going to book them for her wedding too. A great set of lads that have brilliant energy from start to finish. Nick was great at communicating prior to the event. I would highly recommend them and encourage you to book - you will not be disappointed!"

"Rory was fantastic at my birthday party! He played a mix of music alongside live saxophone, bringing great energy that had everyone in a wonderful mood while also creating a classy, elevated atmosphere for the evening. He was on time, highly professional, and an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. I'd recommend him without hesitation for anyone looking to add a special touch to an event."

"We booked these guys to perform at our English/Indian fusion wedding. They smashed it! Playing a broad range of old and contemporary music which appealed to everyone. They are mesmeric to watch with each band member giving it they're all and connecting with the audience and it's apparent that the band love to perform to a live audience as they engaged perfectly with plenty of energy. Above all they are not pretentious but hard working, professional and excellent musicians."

"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 have followed this band from playing in some of our local pubs, absolutely loved them from the first time we saw them! They are such a good mix, full of energy, and love their quirky edge! Their song choices are spot on, everyone knows and loves, and gets everyone moving, singing and dancing! I very highly recommend anyone to book or visit where this band plays, you will be hooked! For our private event, the guys were so accommodating, went over and above and handled everything so there was no stress for the suprise party I organised! Thank you all so much! Can’t wait to see you at your next gig!"
