"Our wedding was such a special day and the icing on the cake was certainly our wonderful band! All our guests commented on their energy, sense of fun and sheer talent. The wedding was on a Monday night but the band had everyone up and dancing from the first dance right through until the end. From toddlers to my Nan- the band got everyone involved. THANK YOU SO MUCH! It really was the best day. Thank you so much :)"

"I absolutely loved this pair. I recently planned a wedding in Duns, Scotland and Sally & Graham drove over an hour to play about 3 hours at my event. Everything went completely perfectly, from our communication beforehand, the song list, them adding songs I requested, the location and sound quality for their sets, and setup/tear down. I wanted a relaxed, acoustic sound with talented musicians definitely not a DJ party wedding band, so this duo was perfect for that. This website and this band are excellent value for the range and, again, quality of the music, 100% worth the price and more. Before the event, I gave them some some requests including Africa by Toto, which they REWROTE and learned in their own style (HUGE HIT and really surprised my husband). Also we coordinated a place for them to setup, the times of the sets, and what meals they wanted to have, and everything went off without a hitch. They were also so very sweet and wonderful people that they really impressed all my guests who were complimentary and wondering where I found such an amazing band. One of the best things about the Scotswood Acoustic Duo is how their song list covers a huge variety of music that they somehow play all equally wonderfully. So everyone's music tastes were satisfied and it made for very interesting listening, this was one of the compliments I heard alot. There are just so many nice things to say, please book this band and get them doing music full time because they are AMAZING!"

"We booked The Pharaoh's for a Covers Night last month and they were brilliant. Really strong vocals. They played a great range of music from 70s disco classics and soul right through to Amy Winehouse and the Killers! Everyone was up on the floor dancing and people are still saying to me now what a good night it was. Would definitely book them again in the future. Thanks guys!"

"The setting for our August 2018 wedding was the beautiful Arnos Vale’s Woodland Undercroft. There was a “Gothic Lite” theme to this largely (we had a marquee!) outdoor event which we wanted to be as informal as possible. It was important to us that everybody who was attending or contributing to the event felt that they were able to participate in the occasion as guests. For this reason we wanted musicians who we felt would “fit in” the with guests as well as playing the type of music that we wanted . Having trawled through various websites we discovered the “Hot Hats” and, having played their version of “Friday I’m In Love”, knew that we didn’t need to look any further. The sound was great and the image of the band was just what we wanted. Having then seen the band play a couple of times, it was clear that the personalities and sound was just what we wanted. As there was no particular running order for our afternoon reception, our brief to the band was, basically, “play when you think you need to” and this worked a treat. In addition we were played down the aisle to the band playing “I’m A Believer” which was a really special moment for us. There was good communication at the point of booking which was a painless process and continued contact with Alfie and his agent made arranging the event so much easier. We loved the band and the guests loved them as well. We would therefore have no hesitation in recommending the “Hot Hats” for your event. Martin & Nikki P.S. If there was a downside to our afternoon it was that Alfie (despite his best efforts) was unable to teach the bride to properly strum a guitar but, in the overall scheme of things, we’ll let that pass!"

"I cannot praise The Chapel Hill Duo highly enough - extremely professional and extremely talented. They made our wedding reception so special and all our guests thoroughly enjoyed the music they played. I also had the amazing opportunity to play my flute with Sarah and Jaya and this was one of the hi-lights of the day - truly magical! Thank you!!"

"We wanted a versatile acoustic band to add that touch of class and quality to our daughter’s 21st birthday garden party and get the party going, the 'Rhythm Rebels' guys delivered this in full. Bobby’s vocals are amazing, even better than their demo video on the Bark website. They gauged the mood of the crown perfectly and did a great job lifting the energy of their performance as guests were up dancing. Their repertoire was perfect for my daughter’s group of guests but peppered with some classic anthem songs and added some Weeknd songs as that is my daughter’s favourite artist. All in all an amazing act and thoroughly recommended! "

"Absolutely incredible artists. We had the full 4 piece band and they blew us all away. All 4 of them were really lovely, kind friends lads and they made our night magical. The set was awesome, everyone enjoyed it from the 3 year old to the 83 year old. Would recommend to anyone. 5* Could not of been better. "

"I had been planning our garden party for well over a year, I had the Marquee the food and beer tents sorted just needed entertainment. After a-lot of researching I came across this duo. From first contact with Tom, to actually meeting them on the day of our Party everything went smoothly. The weather tried its best to dampen the mood but with Tom and Bobbi singing their hearts out (and not forgetting DJ’ing) they had the crowd on their feet dancing the night away . Our garden party will be talked about and remembered for a long time. I can honestly say if you want the BEST entertainment for any type of party I highly recommend Beats and Bobs!"

"This is long overdue but we wanted to say an enormous thank you for playing at our wedding two weeks ago. A number of guests have commented on how lovely the music was and it certainly lent an air of style and sophistication to the proceedings. Thank you again to the whole band, for helping making the day so lovely."
