Kane Matthews Band
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"Kane and the band were immense. They had everyone on the dance floor and we had so many comments about how great they were. We felt incredibly lucky to have them at our wedding and they were one of the first suppliers we booked. The communication from Kane is excellent, always quick to respond and very accommodating. He is an incredibly charismatic and talented performer and a top man to chat to. He and the band are super tight, bringing some excellent music and groove to our evening. Their musicianship is exceptional. We’re already talking about what excuse we could use to throw another party just to have them play again. Book them, I guarantee you won’t regret it. "
