"We had Shakers Gold play at our wedding on 3rd June. They were absolutely amazing, we've had so many comments on what a fab band they were and the dance floor was constantly full which says it all! Thank you Shakers Gold!"

"Souls are AWESOME! We first saw them at a friends wedding in 2016 and loved them, so when it came to our wedding it was a simple decision to make. We had so many amazing comments from our guests - some who have never seen a sing-off at a wedding before! Katy is very speedy in getting back to you and she made it a really easy process for us. They couldn't have ended our day in a better way. I would recommend to anyone :)"

"Had a fantastic night and thanks again to you and the band - you guys were great. I was impressed with the effort everyone made and loved your face masks! No doubt I'll be in touch for the next party/band booking."

"The actual booking process was easy and although it took a little while for the band to get in touch, it was all handled very professionally. Jonah from the band called me to confirm before the event too. The band were great. - Note from Director of Music. This was the bands first event with us and so they didn't realise they were allowed to speak to the client direct hence the delay in them getting touch."

"Wow - what a band, absolutely incredible!! We are huge fans of funk, soul & motown and Flo Collective had everything covered! They absolutely made our wedding party, Flo has an incredible voice and they had people dancing all night! We genuinely couldn't have asked for more and it was without doubt, one of the best bookings we made for our wedding. Flo was also incredibly helpful & efficient throughout the whole booking process which is a real bonus. Thank you so so so much for making our wedding so amazing! (10 / 10)"

"Finding a great band for a wedding is surprisingly excruciating and risky. We were planning our wedding during the pandemic, so we had to rely on online videos when searching for bands. We discovered very many high-priced function bands that look pretty, have excellent promotional videos and websites, but have absolutely no soul or no groove. We also had a few lucky escapes: such as certain bands failing to tell us that the very talented lead singer in their promotional video wouldn't be performing with the band, and a few of the bands we saw in pubs and bars demonstrating no idea how to set their PA system to enjoyable levels. Oh and did I mention some bands were requesting RIDICULOUS prices! However, for us it was so important to find a good band, as my new wife and I and many of our friends are dancers, and we wanted lots of people to dance at our wedding. I wrote a specific brief and had high standards, which meant I spent AAAAGGGGES searching and was mostly disappointed. But then somehow, I finally stumbled across Disco Infernos's videos. Oh - My - GOD! Prayers were answered and we hadn't even got to the church yet. They offered a few bands of different styles, sizes and repertoires - and for us Disco Infernos was the closest to what we wanted. Disco Infernos are also super adaptable, as whilst some of the performers we liked weren't available, we were offered a variety of other performers and could choose who we thought would work best for our occasion, and even the kind of outfits they could wear (although we weren't really fussy about that. What we wanted was a great band.) The standard of everyone we reviewed was very high, and when we wanted performers that could perform funk, soul, disco, jazz, R&B and pop within one performance we got them. I don't like the saxophone, so I asked for a trombone player instead. Done. We reviewed a variety of lead singers, and we chose Najwa, and we're so pleased we did. She gave a superstar performance with a personable, upbeat and still professional attitude, incorporating so many of our specific requests that we knew our guests would enjoy, and encouraging our guests to interact with her whilst she was on stage. Due to a delay caused in to the start of the meal, the band even accommodated a shorter mid-set break to keep the dancing and energy going through-out the reception. Not only did that ensure we continued having an excellent wedding party, it truly gave us value for money for our booking. Guests loved the band. We loved the band. And the band seemed to love our wedding. All very important. We are very grateful to Rhona, Disco Infernos and when we have another occasion where we'd like a great function band, we'll first approach Disco Infernos. "

"Tim and I wanted to thank you and the band for being so amazing at our wedding. I think every guest has complimented you guys and said how fantastic you were. You managed to make what was an already awesome day more spectacular, I think you captured everyone's energy and really gave us the perfect party for our wedding. The first dance was fantastic and we were blown away by all your talents. I think the band were a bit worried they wouldn't be allowed home for the chants of 4 more songs :) Also thanks for your all your help and prompt responses and information you gave us beforehand. Really makes wedmin easier when working full time too! Hopefully we can come and see you guys playing any gigs you have planned, so keep us posted Caro and Tim, wedding at The Poplar Tree in Durham – 21st June 2014 "

"The Woolers played at my mums 50th and really made the night special. Their choices of covers pleased everyone of all generations and they played them so well that sometimes you forgot it wasn't the actual band playing! Would recommend to anyone."

"Groove Allstars were truly amazing at our Charity ball at the Hancock Museum on 15th June. The whole band are exceptionally talented and had the whole place dancing from the first song to the last. We would not hesitate to recommend this band to anyone who is looking for a high energy band to get the party started.

"Thank you Sarah Jane and Glorious Grooves! We really enjoyed listening to and dancing to the live music at our wedding. The band were very flexible, going out of their way to accommodate a change to their set-up time a couple of weeks before the event. On the day, they were really friendly and the standard of the music was high. We both thought it would have been even better if the volume on Gloria's mic had been slightly louder, but it was a small detail in an otherwise brilliant two-hour set. Thanks again!"

"High Key played at our wedding and they were absolutely down fantastic. They kept us all dancing all night and their brilliant repertoire of songs formed the foundations of one hell of a party. So many of our guests who, like me go to lots of weddings a year, commented on how amazing our band were and played such a huge part in making our wedding what it was. Would highly recommend them to anyone!"
