"On behalf of Johns family and friends, I want to Thank you so much for making our Dads funeral and wake a very special day. You completed his day in the best and most memorable way possible, and we are so grateful for that. You got the whole room up and dancing, and I know John would be smiling down from heaven having a huge Jig along to all your music!! He would have loved it! The day will be talked about for many years to come, and I can’t thank you enough for being a big part of this special day. Katherine & Sean, Father’s Wake at Newbery Rugby Club – 17th March 2023 "

"The band played at my daughter’s wedding reception on Saturday and really made the evening go with a swing. All the communication in the run up to the event was good – what music we were looking for, arrangements about set up, timings, etc. Musically, they are an excellent band."

"Ruby sang at our VE Day event at Streetly Community Library and she was simply fantastic. She was engaging, entertaining and professional, appealing to all age groups. The mix of music provided was just right – we couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you Ruby, we’d love to have you back. "

"St Patrick's night at the Old Fire House Exeter was electric last night. The Extonions were well on form and had the place buzzing. Mac on his green electric fiddle raced away with jigs getting faster and faster, I'm surprised his fiddle didn't catch fire. Mike sang in his sexy Hank Marvin deep gravel voice with a lovely Irish twang. That got the ladies swooning. John swapped with ease from 6 to 12 string guitar and kept up a driving beat together with fingers flying over the strings to create a magical sound. James maintained the foundation of the band with solid bass. The place was so packed it was like how many people can you get in a telephone box, they just kept pouring in. There must have been hundreds at the gig. Feedback said it was the best St Patrick's venue in Exeter that night and greatly down to The Extonions. I highly recommend you don't miss their next gig."

So sorry for this late reply but we have been busy. We loved playing there although mature talented experienced musicians the younger audience went wild and like you said thought it was the best St Patrick's Night Exeter in Exeter. Mac 🙂 🎨 🎻

"Thank you for playing at my birthday party – the group was great and I had a lot of really positive feedback from my friends. I certainly enjoyed it and Banish Misfortune really made my party go with a swing – exactly what I wanted!"

"I recently booked Ruby to sing at a 100th birthday celebration for one of our residents at the care home where I work. I wanted to organise the most perfect party for Ida and her family and even managed to secure the Lord Mayor of Sutton Coldfield to attend the celebration. From our first conversation, I knew Ruby was just perfect to perform for us all. Ruby arrived and set up at the agreed time looking fabulous, and sang us through the ages. One memorable moment was whilst singing The White Cliffs of Dover Ruby sang right next to Ida and they interacted beautifully with Ida fully engaged and singing along. The feedback I received from our residents, their relatives and staff in attendance at the celebration was absolutely brilliant and many have asked when Ruby will be back to sing for us all again. I have booked Ruby for our next event and look forward to working with her on many more occasions. I can not recommend this lovely lady enough."

"What an absolutely fantastic night. I knew you would be a good band from your video, but you were even better than that! Brilliant music with lots of energy. Thank you so much for making Jessica and Andrew’s wedding one of the best days of their lives. Jessica said to me half way through that the dancing was exactly what she had wanted. She was very happy. Unfortunately Roger missed the two of them playing - but we have a great photo - attached. It was a long way to come so I hope you got back OK and I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. We had lots of compliments about you"

"Party Sounds thoroughly entertained us at our wedding in September. Mark and the other band members read our audience really well and we don't think the dance floor was ever empty!! Highly recommended and we know that they would have picked up some future customers from our wedding guests. Extremely approachable, punctual and down to earth, if we could have our wedding day again they would be there without a doubt!! Thanks so much for a smooth fun filled evening guys, you really did make our night!! Love the Preston-Reeves, Little Silver Country Hotel, Tenterden. "

"What a fabulous band!! A real crowd pleaser, with a fantastic repertoire to suit the different atmospheres we were trying to create at different times during our event. Very professional, and they could not have been more accommodating and charming. I'm sure they have a big future ahead of them, so book them while you can!"
