"Thanks you so much The Shooglers for playing at our wedding in April. I booked you after receiving a recommendation from the bass player of my own band. He was at a function you guys were playing at last year and he raved about you so much I was really glad you were able to play for us. There were guests from Canada, Dublin and New Zealand at our wedding and they were all joining in and everyone had a superb night. I especially enjoyed how you blended in rock and pop tunes with some of the Ceilidh dances. I will definitely recommend you guys to anyone I can and if I organize another bash in the future I'll be looking The Shoogle up! Thanks so much on behalf of my new wife Wendy and myself. "

"Licksquid were our first choice for our wedding reception and a brilliant choice right from the start. Dan and the boys were friendly and professional and tailored the set to our requirements. These boys aren't afraid of a challenge - we had a very particular request for our first dance involving the start being played acoustically then the band joining in later on - Lick Squid accepted the challenge and pulled it off brilliantly! They even traveled from Derbyshire to the Lake District for our wedding - if that isn't commitment then I don't know what is! Suited and booted the band played two long sets with the dance floor filled throughout to classic rock, pop and a mixture of other genres. Everyone was catered for young and old. Every single guest at our wedding was seen on the dance floor at some point which was a massive deal. We highly recommend Licksquid, they made our special day even more special and were so easy to deal with - a blessing during wedding planning!"

"The Ukes of Hazzard performed at our wedding ceremony and reception, and absolutely set the tone for a night to remember. Everything was smooth and professional and we loved the selection of songs. Guests constantly commented on how special they made the occasion, and what a unique and fun band they were. Would highly recommend booking the Ukes of Hazzard for your event if you’re looking something a bit different that guests and attendees will absolutely love!"

"I would just like to say that Indigo Charm are the best band ever for a wedding or a party. You couldn't ask for a better band. Shamyra’s voice is amazing. Our first dance was At Last by Etta James and it was simply beautiful. She has a very powerful and emotive voice and is such an amazing performer. She came onto the dance floor a lot and sang to people including my 6-year-old godson who was so excited. The other musicians were quite frankly the best I and my guests (as many came to tell me) had ever seen at a wedding. The guitarist in particular was outstanding. All the band really knew how to get a party going as the energy they poured out into us got everyone, and I do mean everyone including my 94-year-old grandmother who was doing the jive, on the dance floor. We had been worried as half of the guests were French and that they would stay on the sidelines and watch instead of dance. However, I have never seen them go for it on the dancing front and it's all thanks to Indigo Charm! "

"We wanted songs that spanned our years of marriage, especially the ones we danced to when somewhat younger! Through the Decades did just that. They are very professional, they listen to your personal requests and perform them. Emily replied to emails very efficiently. Our guests were very complimentary of their act and were predicting their costumes for the different decades! People were dancing and those who preferred not to dance enjoyed watching their act. We were so very pleased with our choice."

"I have worked with Groove Generals on a number of occasions and have always been impressed with the whole experience. Very professional, they make the audience feel like part of the show and these guys enjoy what they do. Five stars! "

"Wow what a night, such a good party! It takes Two were just marvellous. There was plenty of contact before the party asking us what we wanted, they arrived in plenty of time to set up and their music just right, a variety of old and new with some guitar solo’s...plus Kelly voice is wonderful. We would highly recommend them, they are very professional, good value for money and really get the party going. Thank you both so much."

"The band were fantastic! Really professional and the quality was amazing. We had loads of great feedback from the guests too, in fact one of them is interested in booking them for an event this summer! They performed a great version of our first dance song (Everywhere, Fleetwood Mac) - it was very special. Thanks again to you and the band! "

"Firstly we, Kestrel, would like to thank you for the part you both played in ensuring that our celebration of achieving three Queens Awards for International Trade at the House of Commons was such a huge success. We appreciate that it is no mean feat to tackle the large amount of process, forms and general red tape required to gain access to the Houses of Parliament, have yourselves and your equipment approved, and set up within an extremely short time frame. You also managed all of their decibel and internal requirements without any one from Kestrel needing to have any involvement – which is very much appreciated on such a busy occasion. Leaving me free to manage all other aspects of the event, without needing to be involved in the music and entertainment. When we heard you play at the Hoste Arms in Burnham Market, we were extremely impressed especially with the combination saxophone music and really feel that the variety of music you can provide makes you flexible enough to attend a wide range of events. That along with your organisational skills and professional attitude is hugely to be commended. We would not hesitate to use you again, with or without the saxophone, and equally to recommend you to other high profile events within both the corporate and the private entertainment sector. Another massive plus for us was the feedback we received from our guests, who absolutely loved the evening and many were to be found just enjoying listening to your music and we received comments on the night and also feedback to say that it really made the evening. Once again thank you to you both, and please don’t hesitate to contact us should you ever require more formal references for other engagements. We hope to hear you again soon "
