Review Centre: Bands & Ensembles

"Hired The Black Marcs as a surprise for my sister and her husband’s 25th wedding anniversary. We were looking for something special but small enough to accommodate an intimate garden party of 30 and they exceeded our expectations. They were friendly and professional from start to finish. Their song list was perfect for our party with people aged 15-83 and had everyone singing along and up dancing. My sister’s only criticism was that they had to leave. ?It made a special occasion one we will never forget. Would recommend them to anyone and would definitely hire them again. Great value for money too. Thanks again ☺️"

"CANNOT RATE THIS BAND HIGH ENOUGH! ? ? ? ? ? Honestly we booked them years back when our wedding was due and they were so accommodating throughout our date change and using our very chaotic playlist! When I say this band will get your guests on your feet I mean it! Honestly would get married again just to use them …. Yes we do stalk them when they play at festivals!"

"We booked The Wild Heart off the back of their showreel which we found to be really fun and packed with energy which is what we wanted. The band did just that live and more! I cant than you enough for helping to make our day so special! Everyone commented how good the band were, they played all our favourites and had us singing along! Thanks to The Wild hearts! Highly recommended "

"I hired Stereo Jacks for my mums 40th Birthday party recently. They were great. They turned up on time with all their sound system and lighting and were really polite and fun to have at our event. The music was perfect for both my mum and my friends. "

"Only we could host a wedding in a yurt, on top of a very high hill, on an August day with a severe weather warning! High winds enforced an evacuation during the wedding breakfast, which was still underway and running late when the band arrived to set up…..They carried on regardless, with the added complication of a short power cut, and provided a fantastic evening of entertainment for our wedding guests! The dance floor was full all night and a great time was had by all…..thanks House of Chords, it was memorable!"

"Really good experience with Eccentric Pony playing at our wedding party. Jimmy liaised closely with me throughout the process about the timings, song list, first dance etc. Very reassuring about the first dance, which we were quite nervous about! On the day they turned up on time and were ready to go at the time we planned for, we actually kept them waiting, sorry! They are excellent musicians and the 3 sets couldn't have gone better. The dancefloor was full whenever they played and they really got the atmosphere going. They kept the party going with DJ sets between and after their band sets. We would highly recommend them and would definitely consider them for future parties. Thanks guys for making our wedding such a good party! Karthi and Rachel."

"We booked Shama, Chirag and the team for our Big Birthday Bash, they did not fail! Our guests loved them, kept the part going all night, a huge library of songs enough to please all ages. Thank you once again and look forward to booking you for the next function."

"You guys played a blinder... and played sets in just the right way in the circumstances, so a huge thanks. There were a lot of musical people at the event, and you and Rose who did the food shared the majority of the plaudits for what you did. Cheers again, and hope to see a bit more of your music being performed sometime. All the very best, Harry."

"Hi Sarah Yes thanks they were really , professional and played well . First half guests were slow to get up which is typical at events as well and nothing to do with their performance . Things got going second half and later on it was buzzing . So all good , we had a great night Please thank the act . "

"Rachel was professional and accommodating from start to finish. We contacted her quite late, to ask her to sing at our wedding celebration service. She was quick to communicate, helped us with all and any queries and even learnt new songs for us, being sung into the church by Rachel with ‘A Million Dreams’ was honestly beautiful. Rachel’s voice is absolutely fantastic and all of our guests have said how fab it was to have her accompanying us on the hymns. Thanks again for all your help Rachel and your contribution to our day.

"Rory and his colleagues played at my husband's 40th birthday party. This was held on a summer evening at home for around 60 people. Having live music totally transformed the night. Rory's band created a really unique atmosphere. The music was relaxed and subtle, which meant that the conversation could flow, but so enjoyable to listen to that you didn't want it to end. I would love to have the opportunity to hear them play again and I would not hesitate to engage them for another occasion."

Hi Adam and Sofie, Thank you so much for this very kind review - it is perfect, and exactly what I was looking for. It was a real pleasure to entertain you at your garden party, and I am thrilled that you enjoyed it! We would be delighted to offer our services again in the future. Keep in touch and best wishes :-) Many thanks and best regards, Rory
