The Cherry Beats played at our wedding party and went down an absolute storm. The wedding band is extremely talented and professional, they certainly know how to get the crowd going. I wouldn't hesitate to book them again, thanks for making it a special day.

If you are thinking of booking this band then just DO IT!!! We had the most fantastic time and they entertained our 170 classic car club members until they literally could not dance anymore. The song choice was brilliant and the dance floor completely packed. My memory of everyone singing 'hey jude' and holding hands at the end will stay with me for a long time. Totally awesome band"!!!!!

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Our musicianship. There are no backing tracks in our shows and every note is played live so you are receiving energy and charisma in every performance.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

We have covered a number of venues around South Wales including Pencoed House, Oldwalls, Margam Orangery and Canada Lodge to name a few.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

We started out as a Beatles tribute, so the Fab Four are a huge influence on us! We slowly broadened our setlist to encompass more 50's and 60's rock and pop and we now cover a vast array of music from the 50's to the modern day, so between the five of us, our influences are very broad!

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Our favourite gig is an annual affair for us. We have performed for the last few years at the Brecon Jazz Fringe Festival and we always get such a warm reception, it's become an absolute favourite for us!

Will the singer be the same as who I see in the videos?

We strive to make sure the line-up you see is what you get on the night. We do have pre-audititioned 'dep' musicians available in case a band member falls ill or is unavailable. As a professional band our reputation means everything so you can be confident that all of our players are of a very high level.

Do you have different line-up options?

The band are able to offer the addition of female vocal or a sax player to provide a richer and more diverse sonic and visual experience!

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

We understand that most events require some flexibility with regard to timings. As long as the changes of timings are not drastic, this is easily accommodated.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

We offer this as standard!

How much time do you need to set up?

The process of loading in, setting up and sound-checking takes approximately 60 minutes, with the sound-check itself taking no more than 10 minutes.

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Our set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, we're definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event.

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

All PA and Lighting equipment is included.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If a song isn't included in our song list there may still be a chance we already know it. If there is a special song you'd like us to learn we are happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £50 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc.
