Review Centre: Bands & Ensembles

"I attended Amy and Steve’s recent gig where they entertained their audience with a mix of ballads and uptempo songs. The duo certainly seemed to be a draw for the cafe, with walkers stopping in to take a look at what was going on and it seemed to be doing a roaring trade with tables inside and outside filled. The vocals of Agra blended beautifully as they performed a perfect mix of well-known, lesser-known and original songs - there really was something for everyone. Needless to say, their album has been downloaded and was the soundtrack for the journey home."

"We booked Straight Up for our wedding in April 2024, and they were absolutely amazing! We were slightly hesitant as we only had the promo video on the website to go off, but the band were even better in person. We loved that they had an extensive list of songs on their repertoire, and they happily played all 32 songs that we requested from that list! Communication prior to the wedding was clear, and the booking process was really easy. The band ensured that the dancefloor was full throughout the night, and we had such great feedback from all of our guests. They even learnt a 'last song' for us rather than a first dance, which was an amazing way to end the night. "

"Liv and the lads performed three sets at our wedding and exceeded all of our expectations. They were absolutely incredible!!!! I am not just saying that because I was basically glued to the dance floor… but the stage area was packed all night long and we have had so many people talking about them. Our first dance song was perfect and the energy in each of your sets was electric. They were all so professional and flexible, seamlessly flowing between band set and DJ elements. The band were one of the best parts of the day. We simply can’t thank them enough for adding to the magic of it all. We are so grateful. Not only do we highly recommend them far and wide, but we are now followers and fans of them for life. You will definitely see us seeking opportunities to experience them perform again in the future!

"Thanks for your performance, you guys were great... We had Latina Festivale performing at the Lion & Unicorn recently and the music that they provided was perfect for a Saturday afternoon! The staff were dancing and the customers were impressed with the energy they created. Thanks for the fun & great atmosphere, we definitely would like to see you guys again."

"We hired Jamboree James for our wedding, and he was fantastic. He played and sang a great variety of songs in the style we requested. He has a huge repertoire. The dance floor was busy all night. Thank you so much for an amazing evening's entertainment. We would highly recommend him and such a nice guy."

"So glad to have booked Casado, they played for around 80 guests before dinner and during. A lovely mix of music relaxing but happy. They worked on a special piece of music for us and even gave me the sheet music they found online as a momento. July 2019"

"Rob was amazing! Such a nice guy who took the time to ask us our preferred set list and was really friendly. His music was fantastic, so may guests asked about him as he genuinely was brilliant. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for a guitarist for their event. "
