Review Centre: Christmas Bands

"Starlet Beat played at our wedding and absolutely made our night! Everyone was up and dancing and we had so many comments from people on the night and after the wedding about how much they loved the band. They have amazing energy and are incredibly fun, as well as all being brilliant musicians. They learned a song for us and their version is right up there with the original for us! Karen was really easy to deal with in the run up to the wedding - so lovely to chat to and we really appreciated how much effort she put into researching the venue/liasing with them so that everything went smoothly. Absolutely perfect from start to finish, I cannot recommend them highly enough!"

"What an incredible band, we had them play at our wedding and can I say they didn’t disappoint. With such a wide range of music and different genres there is something for everyone. Would use them again 100% amazing."

"I hired Laura to play at my wedding. She was very helpful and communicative the whole time. She has an extensive song list and is happy to take requests! For the wedding we requested a few songs that were not on her list and she gave us consistent updates on her progress of learning them. We were uncertain about how some songs would sound on the piano, so she reassured us on how these were going in her practice. The final result ended up being great on the day! Laura’s music really left an impression on me and my wedding guests. I could hear her doing warm-ups and playing for the guests while I was waiting to walk down the aisle and found her playing to be very calming. During the ceremony all of the songs came out perfectly and created a great ambiance! I’m very grateful for all of her hard work and would highly recommend her to anyone who’s looking for an event pianist."

"Our thanks to you and Andrew for your performances on Saturday for our birthday party. Many people spoke to me about how they had enjoyed the music. For us, the singing just made the evening very special for us. Many of those who didn't appear back into the front marquee for the second set were in fact still listening from further back, but hadn't wanted to disturb or interrupt the performance with their chatting to old friends they hadn't seen for a while. So they too were telling me how they recognised many of their favourite songs, and appreciated the performances too. "

"They played at my sister's party at the Queen's House, Greenwich. I enjoyed their wide and varied repertoire, wonderful energy and really tight playing in an echoey hall. I would recommend Arabesque Strings to anybody, without hesitation."

"I know I thanked you on the night but just wanted to do so again in the cold light of day. You and your band were fantastic, not just brilliant at the music but also lovely, helpful and a total pleasure to work with. Thank you so much and please pass my thanks on to your team. My Mother literally had the party of her life and you were a big part of that... you were exceptional. "

"Absolutely recommend!!! I'd provide a testimonial for SoulNfunk anytime. I've heard the band for over 4 years and the wide genres covered, the music and tribute acts are so professional. The talented musicians deserve every penny and more. There's nothing like a live band and these guys are Tip Top!! Sarah Dent xxx"

"Hi Aly, Just wanted to touch base to say thank you very much for last night - please pass our thanks to all the other band members too. We had such a good time! Thank you again, especially for doing our first dance song."

"It all went wonderfully . The band were professional , friendly and great performers from start to finish . We really enjoyed having them and hopefully they enjoyed the day too . They got people dancing and the music was varied and upbeat which is what I asked for . There were 4 generations at the party and the music catered for all . ( I did stop my step grandaughter and her friends trying to change the between sets music to rap ... so all was good , but we did have to submit to some of it at 1 a.m . ). The band members were all friendly and approachable and they were fantastic . Alison .. would recommend and have them again x"

"On behalf of Charlotte and I, I would like to say a big thank you to you and the rest of your team who played at our wedding. The day was already absolutely perfect, but arriving into the Olympia suite to the sight and sound of The MB Band just made the day! We were late to arriving to the evening reception (a brides prerogative…!) but that was no problem to the band who adapted to the time change perfectly. The music was unbelievable and the second set especially when all the guests had warmed up, had everyone on their feet dancing the night away! I will absolutely be recommending The MB Band to everyone I know for any occasion and certainly hope to use you again for the next of our special occasions. Thank you again!"

"Sarah's performance was arranged as a surprise for an elderly friend of mine, Graham M, who loves music/carols but is no longer sufficiently mobile to be able to get to a church service. Graham also has issues with his eye sight which means that he cannot really watch TV etc any more so he spends his days listening to classical music. On the arranged Sunday night in December, Sarah arrived punctually and sang the first carol from the garden. Graham was immediately enraptured by her beautiful voice. As it was rather chilly, Sarah then came inside and continued her selection of songs to her audience of 3! She controlled her voice beautifully to suit the surroundings and Graham was clearly transported back to his past Christmases as he closed his eyes and mimed along - not wanting to spoil Sarah's singing :o) Sarah was so kind and caring with Graham and happily chatted with him about her training, career, etc. We were all very emotional at the impact Sarah's performance had on Graham - it was definitely the best Christmas surprise I have ever organised & the 3 of us will talk about it for years to come, I am sure. I would not hesitate to recommend Sarah for such performances and will definitely call on her services again if/when the opportunity arises. Thank you so much, Sarah - you made an elderly gentleman, his daughter and friend very happy that night! "
