"Our venue was full, standing room only, and the crowd sang-along all night. Amazing show, we'll be inviting Electro 90s back."

"A huge thank-you for a wonderful night's music at my 60th birthday party. Such an amazing customised personalised set, which not only set the perfect atmosphere for the night, but got all generations up on the dance floor. It was amazing to see a rock & roll band turn into a trad Jazz band by bringing in friends on other instruments. The in-house arrangements were just phenomenal. To hear Floyd's 'Wish You were here' accompanied by banjo was so unexpected but worked perfectly! The standard four piece party numbers were, as always, absolutely brilliant. This night was very special and will never be forgotten"

"I’ve booked Nigel’s Verve Jazz duo, trio and quartet for many events over the years. I run a high end music agency and without a doubt Nigels bands are the most sought after! Their music is always top quality, professional and delivered with passion and verve. They are very reliable and flexible and exceptional musicians who will light up any event with their soulful and sophisticated jazz. Highly recommended !"

"Blue Jewel Ceilidh Band were a fantastic addition to our evening wedding celebrations. We had so much fun - from the very young to old, complete novices to experienced dancers, the band catered for us all. Steve led the band with friendliness and humour, giving clear instructions and sharing his knowledge about the dances as we went engaging those that were spectators! We would highly recommend them for anyone thinking about it for their wedding too, and thank them for adding fun and an all-age entertainment to our day!"

"Thanks for a wonderful show. We and the residents of Deepdene including my father greatly enjoyed her beautiful voice and great choice of songs. She had a lovely way with the residents showing humour as she sang despite a squawking budgie and a constant wandering audience."

"A very well rehearsed band with a size-able and varied playlist around their core sound. Excellent lead singer who really gets and feels the music, very well backed and blended with by the band. I love bands like this where the instrumentalists are almost lost in their music and the combined sound they're producing, almost unaware of their audience. From the drummer to the the lead singer - who engages her audience with her presence, personality and musicality. Keep it up guys!"

"When we were choosing our wedding band we felt overwhelmed by the variety and were unsure about booking a band we hadn’t seen perform ourselves or been recommended by a friend. Needless to say; we certainly made the right choice! The band played wonderfully and kept us and our guests dancing all night long! Jake reached out to us in plenty of time to check in, share the set list with us, and ask about our first dance as well as the playlist for between sets. They were also really accommodating with us setting up our own playlist and queuing music while they took their breaks. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a professional band with a modern jazz feel to get the party started!"

"Having a great band that played the music we love and that people would talk about was hugely important to Sarah and I. We wouldn't hesitate to book you again and recommend you to anyone. "

"A big Thank You to the band for a fantastic performance last night. Everyone commented how good they all were and what a fantastic vocalist. I loved how they got the crowd going and watching everyone copy the dance routine the singer showed them when he got on the dancefloor was absolutely brilliant! After several chants of ‘one more song’ from the crowd, the band was more than happy to sing a few more songs despite going over the agreed finish time."

"My wife and I recently had The Cheers perform at our wedding where they smashed out banger after banger to ensure all the guests had sore feet and smiles on their faces at the end of the night. Ben’s communication from the very beginning was excellent ensuring our set list was personalised, they even learned our first dance which we greatly appreciated. Between sets they played our created playlist on Spotify which was super helpful. Their set up was swift and the brass accompaniment really took it to the next level. If you are looking a function band for a wedding or party look no further, The Cheers are the one for you! Thanks Conor & Rebecca"
