“The guys were absolutely brilliant! We have had so many comments about them, they were so professional and the sound was just perfect. We liked it that they had a little dance in-between the live sets. I think I even saw them dancing the moves to Wigfield Saturday night! Great bunch of guys we would definitely recommend them.”

"Thank you so much for getting in touch. We have nothing but fantastic things to say about our night. As soon as we got back from our activity the stage was all set up and ready to go, which was such a huge relief and it looked great! In terms of the band and the music, it was just amazing. I think we were all dancing from the first note of their first song, until they put their guitars and microphones away. (I apologise for some of the dancing the band had to witness!!) It was the perfect mix of current hits and classics, which is just what we asked for and we couldn't of been any happier with how everything turned out. Please pass on a huge thanks from both Laura and I to the band for their incredible performance, and hopefully we will be able to see them perform again in the future."
