Review Centre: Function Bands

"Girls, Girls, Girls! We wanted to let you know how happy we were with The Roaming Rascals who performed at an exclusive client dinner for us at Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity. You totally blew our expectations away. We were looking for a fine balance of music and performance to allow our guests both the option of just enjoying their evening and also dancing or engaging with the entertainment. You did just that and are so much better in person – song selection, instruments, roaming sets and vocals were all outstanding. You were all so easy to work with, arriving in excellent time, sound-checking quickly given our limited time and super flexible in your approach / gauging where the party and the guests needed the music to go. You played an important part in creating a brilliant atmosphere and helping us deliver a hugely successful event. We hope to work with you again in the very near future."

"Chris and his five piece band played Jazz for our wedding back in August 2013. Chris was an absolute pleasure to deal when planning the day - and they were brilliant on the day! The music was excellent, with many of our guests commenting on how much they enjoyed it - and they even wore dinner suits so looked the part! I thoroughly recommend them for any party or function."

"We booked Amplified based on a recommendation from a friend - and they were one of the highlights of our wedding weekend! Rhona and the band were very easy to work with during the planning process, which included organising the band's travel and equipment hire in France, and setup of several locations. Our guests were entertained throughout the day and night with several different styles and a large repertoire. Amplified were friendly, professional and we would highly recommend them to everyone!!

"Excellent communication throughout, arrived on time and set up quietly during dinner in a not particularly large marquee, in the middle of nowhere. Friendly and of course an excellent band, playing upbeat songs and a varied set. We have heard a lot from our guests that they thought they were great. The dancefloor was never empty!"

"This band was rockin’ and rollin’ all night long!! These six wonderful musicians kept the party going with one great dancing song after another. They totally made our party! Can’t wait to hear them again - they sound slick and professional. A really good band."

"Lilac came and sang at my 40th birthday, in a barn in the rainy weather, she was fantastic, great voice and the sound was absolutely immense. Her and Remko were lovey to meet and camped with us to continue the celebrations. Really fantastic!"

"Francesca wowed a jazz loving crowd at our charity fundraiser in North London. Her sultry vocals put her unique stamp on standards like ‘All of me’ and ‘My funny Valentine’ and she also introduced us to her own prodigious song-writing talent with tracks from her recently released album “Devil’s Door”.  A very special evening."

"What can I say? If you are a fan of Irish music, instrumental or with vocals then Dermot and the rest of the amazing musicians are who you need to hire! They were an absolute joy and a pleasure to have play at my beloved father's wake. They are such lovely and friendly people as well as fantastic musicians with a vast array of instrumentation between them. They graciously accepted requests prior to the event and also from some of the guests. My dad would have absolutely loved it and it made a very sad day very joyful and comforting for everyone. Our guests commented on how wonderful they were and the pub staff as well. I highly recommend hiring Dermot and the gang for any event, not just a wake. Communication was excellent before hand and hiring Dermot and the band were the easiest part of the many arrangements that we had to make when organising our dad's funeral and a wake. We sincerely thank you and highly recommend you, The O'Brien family."

"AMAZING. The Fireflies played at our wedding party and they were astonishingly good - to the point where most guests asked us where we'd found the band! So much fun. So much energy. Ian worked the room and the dance floor like a whirling dervish, and ALL of our guests loved it! Can't wait to find a reason to book The Fireflies again!.... Highly, highly recommend ??"
