Smash Hits of the 80s' Reviews

5 out of 5

Just wanted to say that the 'Smash Hits' were absolutely fantastic and all the guests have raved about them, we couldn't have made a better choice and would recommend them to anyone, they really made our night. When we have another party we would love to have the group back again (they are the best) they had the dance floor heaving with guests, we can't thank you all enough for the quality and professionalism given on our special day. The guests have said its the best wedding they have ever been to, so to us that speaks volumes and having 'Smash Hits' made the night.

We booked 'Smash Hits' for our Christmas party and what can I say? Firstly the communication before the event was excellent and easy. We explained our requirements and they dealt with the rest. As for the evening what a great night. This is the band to pick if you want a full on party. The energy they put into their performance just made you want to get up and join in. I would not hesitate to book these guys again!
