Review Centre: 1970s & 80s Style Bands

"We really want to thank The Blue Suede Shoes for being such a great band for our wedding on 3rd August. They are truly excellent musicians and performers. The lead singer can really sing and each member of the band has real talent. They quickly got people up and dancing and they made the party for us. They also managed to appeal to all of the different generations and they mainly played well known, feel good songs which everyone liked (they also weren't too cheesy, however!). The first dance song we requested (Faith no more, This Guy's in Love with You) was a fantastic cover. The Blue Suede Shoes were great to deal with, from the first e-mail, always responding quickly to queries. They turned up on the day exactly when they said they would to set up and they were helpful, friendly, organised and flexible throughout the evening. Thanks again guys! "

"Thank you so so much! That was simply incredible - it is hard to put into words just how special it was to hear live music of such calibrate, enthusiasm and skill. It was incredible to be a part of the songs, dancing along and - as an aside - simply amazing to have you as a familiar face. Really brought back the happiest of memories. We’ve been receiving messages in capital letters from friends saying ‘THE BAND WAS AMAZING’. We’re all quite a musical bunch and lots of us have all attended quite a few weddings now so that’s a huge compliment. Please thank the band for learning the Lianne le havas song. We had to keep double checking the band hadn’t been replaced by Lianne le havas herself - such a magical way to start the evening. Now just have to dream up some other excuse to hire you guys… a 33rd birthday party?!"

"Genius! Soulwax meets Scissor Sisters at your mate’s party / wedding / bar mitzvah and rocks the hell out of it! Why has it taken so long for a covers band to be so cool?"
