"What was really beautiful was that they could really turn up and turn down their volume as they meandered through the crowd of people; talking, laughing, engaging and helping to break the ice doing any sort of request you liked! So much fun, not at all obnoxious or in-your-face. Can’t recommend them enough for any occasion"
Warren, Corporate event, Berkshire
You guys were absolutely amazing on Saturday! Our guests haven't stopped raving about you and you exceeded our expectations. We didn't realise you were going to hand out menus on the day, the social interaction really set you apart from any band we've ever seen EVER! You guys were fun and entertaining and you're exceptionally talented.Thank you so much for doing such an amazing job."
