Review Centre: Vintage Bands

"The quality of the musicians, the outfits and the overwhelming presence of the group was definitely impressive. Aside from their professionalism, it was also great to find that every member of the band was enthusiastic, vibrant and warm! The audience love them and so do we. I can't recommend them enough!"

"We hired The Velvet Tones for our Wedding. They were great from start to finish! We had solo piano at the start of our ceremony, then the singer sang “At Last” as I walked down the aisle and it was stunning!! The Quartet played jazz during our drinks reception which created a great atmosphere without being over-powering. Finally, they gave us a run for our money with an amazing set of Motown to kick off the dancing. We had our own DJ to take over but everyone was already in such a good mood from the band. I really recommend this band as they are so versatile and easy to work with."

"We organised for Kit and the band to play at my mother in laws surprise birthday party and couldn’t have been happier. Their sound is absolutely flawless and made the party so special. An amazing songbook appealing to all the guests, young and old. Fabulous band who made our event even more special. Thanks Kit and One Jump Ahead ! "

Darinka, it was a pleasure to play for Audrey's party and to organise some of the finer points with you beforehand. As I anticipated, the dreaded sound-limiter didn't create any problems for us. It was delightful to see how the youngest of the party-goers were fascinated by the band and gratifying to get a number of compliments from the adults. Thanks for booking us and for your kind remarks above. You know where to find us when you're planning Audrey's 90th! Best wishes, Kit Packham, bandleader, One Jump Ahead.

"Superfunked supplied the most amazing band for my 50th birthday at The Atrium by the House of Lords - they warmed things up nicely with a cocktail set then set the place on fire with 2 hours of soul, swing and rock n roll!"

"You guys are AMAZING!!!!!! Seeing you perform at my sister's wedding last night, in Ilfracombe, was a highlight of what was an already perfect day and we all had the time of our lives; you had the entire wedding party up on their feet and many of the girls went home with black soles from taking off their heels so they could dance! Everyone commented on how great you were, how it was the best wedding they had ever been to/best band they'd seen at a wedding and how well your quirky style fitted in with the venue and the relaxed, but fun, atmosphere of Jane and Perry's wedding. Really, really great job, thanks for coming all the way... love the hats...sorry you had to give them up for the majority of the night!"

"Hollie was amazing performing at our wedding on the 4th August 2017. Hollie was excellent before our big day too, planning the structure of the day and with a lot of songs we chose ourselves. From our first conversation with Hollie our minds were put at ease with her calm, professional, and friendly manner which really took all of the stress away. Hollie created a really personal set which added a touch of magic to our special day.....she truly has an amazing voice. I will definitely hire her again. "

"Superb singer and flautist Anna Leigh really is a bit of a gem… This fresh and attractively presented entertainer has to be in the premier league of solo female cruise ship-type cabaret acts… Very bookable… one of the vocal highlights of the entire showcase"
