"Mark played at my wife Caron's 50th birthday party. He was excellent, his set was great, keeping guests of all ages more than happy, in fact he became part of the party! Well done Mark, definately have him back."

"Unbelievably big thanks to what you put on for us! It delivered on all fronts!! The sax to start things off was absolutely incredible - exactly the vibe we were after. Then Remko was a hero in sorting the music to walk in on and the music during the breakfast! But the band, boy oh boy did they steal the show - I lost track of the number of comments from our guests on how good you guys were! The bits where you came out into the crowd and got stuck in were epic. We knew you’d be good but you surpassed all expectations!! We can’t thank you enough and will recommend to all our friends! "

"Huw was exactly what we needed for our end of season ball - great music, great vibe and loved by everyone! An artist that suited all ages and was easy to work with. We will be using him in the future for sure! "

"I just wish to say a BIG thank you once again for being part of myself and Charlene’s wedding day, and contributing to such a special day! I thought you were absolutely fantastic, as did the rest of the guests, and you definitely left a lasting impression! Your passion clearly shone through when you sang, and there weren’t many dry eyes after you finished singing such a great song! If you would like to send me any information I can forward to guests, I would definitely like to recommend you!"

"Steve, Geoff and Absolute Band were brilliant to deal with from start to finish. Really friendly people, superb musicians and ensured our dancefloor was busy all night. The addition of a fiddle player was so much fun. Would 100% recommend booking these guys for a wedding or party! Sarah & Ross, Wedding at Rushton Hall in Northamptonshire – 1st January 2023 "

"If you’re looking for a band who can come onstage to a marquee full of people quietly chatting and drinking and within minutes turn them into full-scale dance Machine with everybody in the place laughing and enjoying themselves, Then I think The Blaggers might be the act for you. Guests at our event (held to raise funds to prevent the destruction of a greenbelt zone) ranged from 20s to 60s, But all were captivated by the humour professionalism and generally good time emanating from rom the band. I am a professional filmmaker and have shot an l lot of promo videos for bands, from Euorope (yep, “the final countdown”) to Paul Young to AC/DC, and The Blaggers have that same charismatic quality that you see in all these massively successful bands. For a 3 piece they also a pack a monster sound, and over the course of three sets in one evening they played not only the Gay Gordons and other traditional stuff but also sex and drugs and rock’n’ roll and people are strange by the doors – not something you hear from average ceilidh band. I would highly recommend them if you’re having any kind of function we want to get the whole crowd involved. Oh and did I mention they’re very nice guys as well?"

"Wow what a night of fantastic entertainment!! It is safe to say that Lilac made our event with customers raving at how good the music was and the energy she bought to our event was through the roof. Lilac is a must if you’re looking for a talented and exceptional musician. A definite re-hire for us."

"For the third year The Brixham Pirate Festival will have The Extonions playing on the Main Stage. Pirates are a discerning crew and The Extonions had them a jiggin' and toe tappin' throughout their set. HUZZAH!!!"

Reply by Irish Band: The Extonions
Thank younRuss , while it lasted under your management, we though roughly enjoyed every moment as did the crowd. People often ask why we are not playing anymore on the main stage, and we have to say, we don't know.

"Best band we could have asked for! They were so organised and thorough in the run-up to the wedding, making sure we were happy with the sets. The day it’s self was amazing and I could not recommend them highly enough! Everyone commented that they were the best band they had heard, the dancefloor was filled with every age group all night! Thank you again and we will be looking for any excuse to have you back!"

"We communicated with Jamie prior to the event to iron out all the necessary details. This made the day run smoothly & stress free. Jamie’s performance was outstanding. A perfect laid back vibe with great audience participation which only added to the atmosphere. We received a number of compliments over our choice of entertainment. Jamie’s voice is superb, we loved the authenticity in his voice. The set list played was extremely fitting to our wedding day. Do not hesitate to book Jamie. You will not regret it!"
