Review Centre: Party Bands

"We booked The Cheers band for our wedding reception after hearing them at a friends wedding a few years back. The atmosphere the band provides is electric and keeps your guests on the dance floor the entire night, which was exactly what we wanted for our wedding. Ben Thornton, the band manager, is approachable and super helpful in accommodating all your requests no matter how difficult they may be. We asked to swap one of the Dj sets for some Greek music which was no trouble for them to do. On the night the band were happy even though our food had been delayed which sadly ate into their first set of playing time. The band took this in their stride and played so amazingly to get our guests up on the dance floor for all the remaining time we had left! Absolutely incredible and I would 100% recommend them and book them again??"

"Could not have asked for a better band from booking through to the wedding day. Ian called us a couple of times pre wedding to understand our very different musical tastes and managed to mix them all in for two fab wedding day live sets and a DJ set. The band even played a special song which I was incredibly last minute in deciding! The lighting you provided to the venue also completely livened it up and created a whole different place for the evening! So many wonderful compliments from guests since the wedding about how great it was that so many people were on the dance floor and how this was encouraged by the interaction between guests and the band. They (and we) loved the music so much! The most fabulous entertainment for what was a brilliant day! Thank you so much! You’re fab!"

"You guys were incredible! Thank you so much for playing at our wedding! The variation in songs you played gave everyone something to dance too. And I don't think the dance floor was empty at anyone point. Totally made it for us. I'd get married all over again just to have you play it!"

"Ian & Sam were just superb. We hired them for our NYE event and they we professional from the off set. Ian replied speedy and put me at easy and made the booking process and discussing our event extremely easy which filled me with confidence. On the day this only continued, they arrived promptly and were extremely adaptable on setting up and adjusting to our space. All our guests only had great feedback and they made the evening one to remember. I’d highly recommend them for any event. Many thanks to you both!"

"We hired Ramaen for our wedding reception, and it was exactly what we were hoping for. His music was subtle and really allowed us to have conversations and enjoy the evening without it being overpowering. So glad we chose him!"

"This band is amazing. Played our wedding and they were so good and even managed to do our first song dance which isn't one they had on their set list. Highly recommended. Thanks guys!"

"These guys have a great repertoire of over 80 songs but what makes them stand out is their ability to engage the audience. Providing chorus sheets helped but everyone was really up for joining in and it was clear they were having great fun too. A brilliant night!!"

"Not only are they brilliant musicians but also great fun and great company. Amazed at how brilliant they were. Everyone at the party has told us how good they thought they were! Highly recommended for many reasons, including their love of cheese (the sort you eat). Loved them!"

"My husband and I wanted to plan a wedding day that combined all our passions and interests, and we were so lucky to find Fann Street Hot Club. For a reasonable price, they kept everyone dancing all afternoon, playing all the gypsy jazz tunes we've loved for years. Our memories of that day will always be so special to us, and we'll always hear the soundtrack of the band playing our favourite music when we look back and remember. Thank you so much to Jan, James, Alex and Ruben for their magical playing on the 15th May!"
