"We wanted to have a special night at the club for our Golf Professional-sponsored Jubilee day & Back2Skool Duo did not disappoint. It was the best dinner dance we have had at the club since I can remember & the band had everyone off their seats & dancing. The big band sound was just right & the repertoire of classic songs really hit the mark."

"From the moment we saw the Gospel Choir at the open day at our wedding venue, The Oakwood at Ryther, we got goosebumps; we knew we had to book them for our wedding straight away! And they truly did not disappoint! All of our guests, even the photographer and the registrar, commented on how amazing the choir were. The booking process was easy and any questions we had, there was no hesitation in answering. Can honestly say these guys made our day! Thank you!"

"Anna was kind enough to be our first singer on our Live Music nights and she set the bar very high! With a superb voice and friendly nature, managed to get the normally quiet clientele to their feet and we all had a fantastic night! Have already booked for more sets as we couldn't let her get away. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a unique, professional and stunning performer! "

"Tracy was great - from start to the day itself the communication was fab. On the night they played a selection of their own catalogue and also some special ones for me . The party was Disney themed so they learnt some Disney tunes specially. Thanks."

"We booked Back2Skool Duo for our wedding day to perform outside whilst people had drinks and photos, everything was perfect. Setting up was seamless, we barely noticed them arrive and set up, they were all self contained, the music was amazing and Tracy even learnt a few specific songs that are special to us! The atmosphere they created was amazing and we would recommend them to everyone!"

"These guys made our wedding! I don't normally bother to submit reviews but I know how hard it is to choose the perfect band for your wedding and having been so thrilled with what Ben and the rest of the guys did for us, I felt compelled to write. We had the duo doing background before speeches and then the quartet with sax, to kick off the party. It was simply perfect for the occasion and our 110 guests unanimously agreed that they loved the band! The guys added our choice of first dance to their playlist, which was superb. It bridged the generational gap at our wedding perfectly, we filled the dance floor with 6 to 86 year olds - no mean feat. After the last set, Ben stayed on to let us use his disco playlist on his laptop, which also worked fabulously well. My wife and I'm sure 110 of our guests wouldn't hesitate to recommend this band. A massive thank you, you were a real highlight and also all great guys :-)"

"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"

"The Encores played at our wedding in August and were fabulous. Nothing was any trouble for them and they even learned our first dance song which was amazing. All our guests thought they were brilliant and they had everyone on their feet! Great memories. Thank you The Encores."

"We couldn't have been more pleased that we picked The Romantics as our wedding band. Aside from being really talented musicians and incredibly professional in the lead up to the wedding, they were absolutely phenomenal on the day and really got everyone involved. The fact that they moved around was also amazing, as it worked well for a summer's evening when people wanted to be outdoors, as they also got to dance and sing along outside without missing out. I couldn't recommend them enough to anyone looking for a band for an event and so many of our guests are still saying what a great choice they were. We absolutely loved you guys! "

"The Line Up were our wedding band, and they were absolutely fantastic. They turned up on time, set up quickly and unobtrusively, then played 2 fantastic sets and DJ sets in between. They read the room perfectly and kept everyone dancing all night. Couldn't have asked for more from them and we highly recommend them to anyone thinking of hiring them."
