"Hi Thomas! Thanks for an amazing band! Everything was perfect from the first contact to the day itself! We were not sure what we really wanted in terms of music for the day but the guys delivered the perfect backdrop to out wedding. Highly recommended!"

"We’re absolutely chuffed that we booked soul in the belfry for our wedding. The song choices were perfect and they did a beautiful rendition of a bob marley song for our first dance. All of our guests commented on how talented they are and how they brought a fantastic end to the evening!"

"I just wanted to write and thank you SO much for everything you did for our choir on Saturday night. I have heard incredible feedback from them, and that everyone was up and dancing. Thank you so much for fitting it in and please pass on our thanks to your band members, many of whom, I know, changed their plans at the last minute in order to accommodate this booking. "

"This quartet played at my wedding in August, after originally being booked for August 2020! They accomodated to 3 different wedding dates for us in the end, due to 2 postponements! Yhe communication throughout an insanely stressful 2 years was amazing, Kim even waivered the admin fee of changing the date twice due to money issues from loss of earnings during Covid. I had a particular piece of music I wanted to walk down the aisle to from Game Of Thrones, but it had never been arranged for a string quartet. This was not an issue for the amazing team, who spent months listening to the original and making me my own bespoke piece of music by recreating it. They played before my ceremony whilst guests were arriving, during the drinks reception whilst my husband and I went away for private photos and then even stayed a little longer. My guests absolutely adored them, they played loads of music from films and TV shows and even the children were recognising certain songs! They also played a bit of Def Leppard and took requests from very keen guests. They made the atmosphere and were so lovely to be around. 6 months later, I will still see people that attended and they'll say "oh my gosh, your string quartet was amazing!" Well worth the money and the wait. Added something spectacular to our beautiful day that we will never forget. Thank you "

"So what can I say that hasn't already been said? The Fireflies lived upto & exceeded expectations. From making first contact with Ian and discussing plans & requirements, to packing away after my husband Toms 70th birthday celebration in our garden, the band were personable, friendly & professional. The music they played or included on the playlist was as requested, and was perfect for all guests to enjoy. Ian always checked that I was happy with how things were and was very reassuring, especially when he first arrived and could see how stressed I was, so that I was finally able to enjoy the party too. So many of our guests asked how I found the band, and comments such as "they're amazing", "superb band", "they're great, aren't they" & from the birthday boy himself "wow" are further testaments as to why you should seriously consider them for your event. Even uninvited neighbours, days later, said they enjoyed the music. Thank you Ian, Sam, James & Greg - you made our party memorable. We're still talking about it!"

"Wendy was superb from the first communication. Very efficient and on the day turned up an hour or so before start time to prepare. Wendy is a lovely person but fantastic Sax Player too, all our guests commented on how great she was and how lovely it was to arrive with Wendy playing in the background. Would definitely book her again and would thoroughly recommend her to anyone wanting some lovely background music. Great Job Wendy. Thanks Robbie and Caroline "

"I couldn’t recommend Jazzy sax enough. Myself and my guests absolutely loved his performance alongside my DJ. He had everyone up dancing. Very professional. "

"Having booked these guys watching their videos online due to COVID they exceeded all my expectations and were truly outstanding - their videos don’t do them justice to how good they are live! We enjoyed them so much we paid them to stay on as we didn’t want them to leave! Having spent many years watching small bands in pubs I can honestly say they are up there with the best I’ve seen. If your looking for a small band to fill any room and interact brilliantly with the crowd these are the guys. Genuinely really nice guys with a huge passion and brilliant to work with. If I don’t see you before see you at the 70th in 10 years!!"

Hi Rich, many thanks for your review and for the very kind words. It was great working with you too - you guys had clearly put a lot of time and effort into making the event happen - and we had a thoroughly enjoyable time playing for you and all the other guests. We hope to work with you again in the near future! All the best, Martin and Stuart
