"Saw you guys at Glastonbury. Wow! Absolutely smashed it! It may not have been a 10,000 strong audience, but you had everyone with you and everyone dancing. Brilliant! Need some UK dates to come and see you."

"It was a pleasure having the Hot Boots Band Duo play at our farmers market this 2021 season! Barry and Christina are among the best of the musicians in our area and have a true passion for what they do. They always arrived on time, engaged the crowd, and played music that appealed to everyone. We look forward to having them join us next year and beyond in the market. "

"It’s was my sons 30th birthday party and I’m so happy I found U Select. It was so exciting being able to customise everything. All the singers U Select sent where incredible and it make choosing very difficult, but we loved Graham’s style as our son loves rock / indie music. The band were so good and I can’t believe how much of a performer Graham is, so much energy and wow, what a voice! Our son was so happy that the band where able to play all his favourite bands like Arctic Monkeys, The Killers, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Foo Fighters & Paramore. So glad I found U Select!"

"We had a great day and the band was a significant part of that enjoyment. We managed to feed and water 177 people from 3pm onward and we really appreciated the way you were prepared to fit in with our arrangements and set up and then hang around. We are so pleased we went for a live band rather than a disco. We hate background music and it was great to have such a wide play list. It really made a big difference. In 40 years I have never seen my husband dance other than the odd twirl when pushed ….& those could be counted on one hand!"

"After deciding I really wanted a band as a gift to play for my 30th, I did some browsing. I was then recommended Radius 45 by another band to perform for my 30th Birthday! I then got in touch with Michael, who was so accommodating and even juggled things around to be able to play for us. We then went to watch them a month before at The Deepings Caravan Park and there 2 x sets were absolutely brilliant. They had everyone on they're feet. We then spoke to Michael after they had finished and he couldn’t be more happy to help and guide us with our night. After a month of excitement and seeing everything come together, the group arrived and set up without a problem. They all wished me a happy birthday when I walked in and were smiley and bubbly. They fitted in, like they were part of the party. I also asked if we could move things slightly earlier then the original schedule and they were happy to do this for us! The Guys then got changed and looked amazing on stage and kicked off and had everyone on the dance floor! Michael, Jamie, Joe and Arty you are all so very talented and I feel very lucky to have you perform at my birthday. You were the absolute highlight of the night and gave me a birthday I certainly won’t forget! Not only are you all very talented your the most loveliest and enthusiastic guys! Everyone that attended, loved you guys and thought you were amazing! They pulled me up on stage and sang happy birthday to me and presented me with the most gorgeous gift and card - such a lovely and thoughtful thing to do!! Thankyou!! I honestly can’t thank you all enough, I can’t believe it’s already over and how quick the night went! I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on your gig dates and will come and see you perform!! I would highly recommend Radius 45 to anyone looking for a talented, fun band to play for there occasion. They went above and beyond for us!! They certainly won’t disappoint and you’ll be on your feet in seconds! Thank you so much Michael, Jamie, Joe and Arty for everything!"

"We listened to dozens of bands before we selected Good Time SF for the recent wedding and reception of our daughter in L’Aquila. The bride is a musicologist so the music was quite important. The band is terrific musically, even better live than in their great videos. Equally important, they are exceptional in their professionalism and communication. They worked with us patiently to ensure absolute satisfaction in various types of music we requested for the ceremony. On the day of the event, they magically set up at all the right locations and appropriate music was played through out the evening without any further direction from us. We can honestly and wholeheartedly recommend Good Time Soul Foundation for any occasion."

"Hiya, I just want to say a huge thank you for last night’s performance. You were amazing, everyone commented on how good you were. We loved your acoustic set at the beginning of the night, creating a lovely warm atmosphere when guests arrived and wow, your Taylor Swift tribute really got the party started after the meal. Thank you so so much for supporting us and the Yorkshire Air Ambulance."

"Groove 'N Motion performed for our wedding in August 2021 and they were incredible at every level. GnM had excellent communication, were affordable, were accommodating and understanding, played an amazing and wide-ranging setlist, and rocked with high energy all through the night. Our wedding guests, young and old, have said over and over how much they loved our dance floor and that GnM was the best wedding band they had ever seen. We agree and could not recommend them any higher. Scott, our main point of contact, was very communicative and accommodating, including when we had to reschedule our wedding because of covid. He also had a great ability to give advice and perspective from GnM's significant experience playing weddings and large events while still taking our more specific requests to heart. For example, GnM offered a range of modern and classic songs on a designated setlist but also enabled us to make many of our own requests of favorite songs not on their list. They also allowed us to send family to see them rehearse before we booked them because we at the time lived out of state. And they traveled from Denver to our venue in Salida, CO and were great sports about making the trip. It is important to make clear that GnM is not just a random group of musicians who are occasionally pulled together to play a wedding (like we discovered many commercial wedding bands can be). Groove 'N Motion is a true band with great continuity and a range of talents. It's clear they love playing music together and have fantastic rapport. GnM was amazing during our reception. They have their own sound mixer, who helpfully made sure the music never got too loud for our older guests. They played approx 3.5-4 hours for our reception and kept everyone out on the dance floor. The only problem we had was that so many guests wanted to stay for the music that everyone waited to take the last shuttle home! GnM was also excellent for our ceremony songs (a couple songs for guest seating, processional, and recessional) and provided a nice jazz quartet during our cocktail hour. These guys are talented and have range. Being able to rock a country song that is a family favorite and then soon after play some true funk hits is not something just any band could pull off. GnM did it without any problem. If you want to make sure that you have a wedding band that can perform songs in your setlist for all your guests to enjoy, look no further than Groove 'N Motion. You will not be disappointed. "

"The Big Smoke Brass guys certainly know how to put on a show! Familiar and well-loved pop songs played in a way you definitely won’t have heard before. Thoroughly entertaining and never lacking in energy, enthusiasm and swagger. They clearly love playing their instruments and it shows. Dispense with the boring DJ or the covers band you’re thinking of and get them instead. "
