Review Centre: Bands & Ensembles

"This isn't just any old wedding band. A backline that's tighter than my wallet. Face melting solos from the guitarist. Keyboards that looked and sounded as good as Lawrence from School of Rock. Vocals that went up and down the scales like nobody's business. This lot were having as much fun as we were. The kids were doing breakdancing during one of their many incredible mash ups. They even managed to keep it together during dubious crowd participation vocals. I know talent when I see it...and I had two hours of it blessing my ears last night. Well done lads!"

"We booked The Ragtag Misfits to entertain guests at our daughter’s Christening party during the summer. We were looking for something different to the usual “disco dj” and also needed to keep both adults and children happy. This eclectic duo brought an almost “festival vibe” to the party and were truly amazing, playing recognisable tunes in their own (I guess you could call it “bohemian”) Rag Tag style. What’s more, they provided a guitar case full of percussion instruments so the little ones could join in, such a wonderful touch. It got too hot on the day of the party and the Rag Tag Misfits moved outdoors for the last hour, something a DJ wouldn’t have been able to do so easily with all the setting up needed. Helly and Andy are professional, reliable and friendly as well as fabulous entertainers. Thank you so much – everyone loved you"

"Lizzie and I would like to thank you for the amazing performance on our wedding day in November at Rudby Hall. We had so many comments to say how perfect the addition a string quartet was while people arrived and then after the ceremony and we completely agree with them. With a mixture of classical songs and modern covers it really was a great fit for our special day. The additional songs we requested were also perfectly executed and we will remember them whenever we think back to the day. We both highly recommend The North West String Quartet to make a wedding that bit more memorable. "

"We wanted something a little different for our wedding — not just the typical DJ playing the same songs on repeat. Since we absolutely love live music, we knew the band had to be something special. When I came across South West Band on Instagram, I was instantly blown away. From the first clip I saw, I knew they were the ones. Not only are they unbelievably talented, but they also know exactly how to get the crowd hyped and keep the dance floor full all night long. Honestly, BOOK THEM — it’s an absolute must! They were one of the best parts of our entire day, and we have zero regrets. If we could do it all over again, we’d choose them in a heartbeat. 10/10, without a doubt!"

"I just wanted to say a huge and heartfelt thank you, from Matt and I, for coming to play at our wedding. The band were completely outstanding, truly incredible and a perfect party starter for our wonderful day! Our friends and family couldn't get enough of them and were so complimentary - everyone said how much they loved the music! And the first dance arrangement was completely magical. Honestly, the performance was perfect from start to finish."

"Christian and I just wish to say another massive thank you for playing at our wedding. Such beautiful music it's just a shame we couldn't listen for the full 2 hours whilst having photos taken. We'll make sure we hear you again at Elsie Mays! I hope you had a fabulous Christmas and wish you a very happy new year!"

"Andy was booked to play at our Hotel relaunch following a substantial refurbishment under new ownership. We were looking for a classy, smooth, professional yet approachable and friendly act, and we certainly got that with Andy. An extremely successful night and he played a big part in that. We subsequently re-booked him for Christmas Eve, and next Christmas Eve, and will undoubtedly have him entertain at other events and weddings here throughout the year - he is our new favourite act! Cannot recommend him highly enough. (we tried to get him for NYE too, but he's already booked elsewhere!) Thanks again Andy, see you soon. "

"We were very pleased with their performance. I was nervous of being in charge of booking the band for an important corporate event but they were brilliant and everyone enjoyed the performance. I was very happy with the services provided by the band. I have had lots of positive feedback on their performance from our guests. We are very pleased with how our event went and would be happy to use the band again in the future."

"We booked Kellys Heroes to play at our wedding earlier this year and we were not disappointed! Everyone at our wedding was up on the dance floor, dancing for the entire set, they're great musicians with a great set list. I think all of our guests could have gone on for the rest of the night. Everyone still tells us that it was one of the highlights of any wedding they've been to. Thank you! "
