Review Centre: Rock 'n' Roll Bands

"We absolutely loved having you guys there and you definitely got the atmosphere right. We had a lot of comments that people loved the music during the day so a big thank you for that! Also, our guests LOVED having a band for the ceremony (rather than the traditional harpist or flute players). Our only regret is that we hadn’t booked you guys for longer or for the evening too! But we’ll definitely recommend you to friends and if we can think of a way to hire you again we definitely will! Thanks again ever so much!"

"Many, many thanks for playing at our wedding, having heard you play before at a friend's wedding we knew that you'd be excellent and have everyone up on the dance floor, we weren't disappointed. Lots of people have commented as to how good you were, and the staff at the Homeward Park Hotel said you were the best band to play there in a long time. We'd be happy to recommend you to anyone."

"Just to say thank you very, very much for such a great performance on Saturday night! The band was brilliant and made the evening – everyone raved (and is still raving!) about the music. It really couldn’t have been better and the fact that just about everyone was on the dance floor at one point says it all! Don’t think my 40th could have been more memorable – I had a blast!"

"The Catfish Kings were superb! Great musicians. The vocalist and band leader, Harry, sings over a tremendous rhythm section comprising saxophone, bass, drums, keyboard and guitar. Every song played delivered a great authentic sound. Every song invited you to dance. And we did! The band were friendly and showed great professionalism from start to finish.They entered into the spirit of the occasion and were a key factor in the success of the evening. So many of our friends and family, of all ages, were very complimentary about this band. Thanks to Harry and the band for a great night."

"Sincere thanks from the two of us. I wish I could have heard more of you, but I obviously had to mingle. My father was very complimentary and has commented how good you all were. Hope you got home safely and many many thanks. "

"Our wedding took place at the Merchant Taylors' Hall, central London, in December 2012. We knew that we wanted a band for the evening reception, and some music for our wedding ceremony, but didn't really know where to look for inspiration. The Blue Suede Shoes looked like our kind of band, and their website was really helpful and informative, so we made our booking a couple of months in advance after contacting Ben by email. There is so much planning involved in arranging a wedding. As the groom, I wanted to know that the band would be there in good time, and be organised and professional on the day. We were in very safe hands with The Blue Suede Shoes - they were absolutely brilliant and very considerate to our requests. Their rendition of the song for our first dance was perfect, and all of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the band's sets. I'd have no hesitation in recommending the band to anyone for their own events. They were superb musicians, excellent value and great people too. We really did have a perfect day, and we are very grateful to The Blue Suede Shoes for helping to make it so special. "

"We booked The Blue Suede Shoes as our wedding band after seeing some of their videos on YouTube and they did not disappoint. From the moment we emailed Ben right through to meeting him at our wedding celebration, he was fantastic. We were able to pick our favourite songs from a large set list & have our own wedding song that the band played for us. On the night, the band were brilliant and our guests commented on how good they were. They had people up dancing and singing along and it made our night. I would highly recommend them for any function, they were fun and entertaining and played exactly what we wanted on the night."

"I just wanted to let you know the band were absolutely amazing!! They were so kind in hiding the fact they were a surprise, they made my Mum feel extra special and she didn’t sit down through their whole set. Thank you so much"

"In the lead up to our wedding they were always very professional to deal with, responding quickly to any questions we had and happy to adapt set lists and timings to exactly what we wanted. We had them for our evening wedding reception and they were fantastic! On the night they were absolutely brilliant and had our guests on their feet from their first song right up to the end. All our guests (even our older guests) have all complimented the band, the mix of songs they played was perfect. People were asking me how much they were and all agreed they were cheap for how good they are, and so much better than your typical wedding band. We were running a bit over time so they cut their break down to 15 minutes for us so we didn't miss out on any of their set list. They dressed smartly for the occasion and Louise and Sam were so helpful and friendly throughout the whole process. I honestly couldn't recommend then enough! I'm just trying to find another occasion that I can have an excuse to use them! We have had lots of comments from guests about how good the band were and what a good range of tracks they played. We would definitely recommend them."

"Revival played at my cousin's wedding last night. Wow, what a wonderful night. They played a mix of music that all ages were dancing to. They had fantastic feedback and my mother and father in law are still talking about them this morning! I can highly recommend them if you want a band who play to a high standard and who are genuinely lovely people! I will certainly be recommending them. Thanks again Tom and the band. "

Hi Sarah. Thank you very much for leaving such a lovely review. We were privileged to be a part of Mike and Karen's Wedding celebrations, and thoroughly enjoyed the event. All the best to you, Tom.

"I realised we never said THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! You lot absolutely 100% nailed it! We are both so so happy with the glorious soundtrack you provided for our party. The music was amazing, and the energy you all bought was incredible. We knew it was going to be good, but had no idea it would be that good! You got the party started in ways we could never have imagined! Everyone had the best time dancing to your sound, we could not have wished for more. There aren’t words for how grateful we are, just thank you thank you thank you!!! "

"The Kings of Hot Swing played at our wedding reception, we loved the performance and style. The guys really made the evening special and played our first dance music, which they learned especially for us. All of our guests commented on how good the music was and how it created the perfect relaxed and fun atmosphere to our wedding reception. Thanks so much, it was a perfect end to our wedding day."
