“The Band were amazing again. Second time in 4 months I have seen them. You kept the dance floor packed all night. They are a must have at any function. Thanks again from Stuart and Everyone who was at the function in Andover on Saturday.”

Stuart Scott, Andover

“I have booked Chris and the guys this Festive period for two large corporate events I have been organising. I cant speak more highly of the guys, professional and helpful throughout the whole process and were beyond amazing when it came to the playing the actual events. I also hired the silent disco & bandeoke for one of them which went down an absolute storm! The feedback from the client has been exception and they will most certainly be my go to band going forward! Thank you again for everything!”

Jenny Stanley, Events Manager, Revolution

“We had The Band at our kitesurfing armada festival this year. It was a fantastic gig, the crowd loved it, and they created exactly the right atmosphere for the festival. Everyone was singing along with their hands in the air, a brilliant night.”

Dan Charish – Virgin Kitesurfing Armada, Hayling island

“Chris and The Band were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. No request was too much and the dance floor was full the entire night – a testament to how great they were! We’d definitely recommend them to all of our friends.” 

Sophie and David – Brampford Speke 

“Everybody loved The Band – great band, great music and really made my party special!!”

Bex Walsh – 30th Bday Party

“Thank you for coming not only us but our guest also enjoyed the music. So many of them came up to me to say how great you were. We were very impressed not only with the music but your professionalism also our guests loved the music and we greatly appreciated your input into our big day.”

Curtis Fassey – Cripps Barn

“The Band were AMAZING at our wedding; we couldn’t have asked for more. They kept everyone dancing all night and so many guests commented on how fantastic the band were. As newly weds, we have loved looking back at the pics of everyone having such a good time and dancing the night away! The defining moment was definitely when my husband and I found each other on the dance floor for The Band’s final (sob!) number, Mr Brightside. Lots of jumping and hugging ensued; it was a fab way to end the night, as guests shouted ‘more’!.. you. are. brilliant!” 

Beth and Jono Hampton – Kilver Court
