Mark's Reviews

This very talented and professional band played at a family wedding recently. They were brilliant! Their music choices were excellent and they had made a huge effort to learn new numbers specifically requested by us. All our guests commented on their professionalism and they managed to energise their audience ...lots of dancing! They delivered on all their promises and were totally reliable... a real bonus particularly when planning a wedding. We can’t thank them enough as they helped to make our special day really special and we would highly recommend them.
