Rocktonight
"Rocktonight was absolutely amazing to work with from start to finish. From the very beginning, we were in direct communication with them, and they even coordinated directly with our event planner so we didn’t have to play middleman. Their playlist was extensive and flexible, giving us plenty of great options to choose from. Most importantly, they rocked out on the night of our wedding — bringing incredible energy, sound, and fun that took our celebration to the next level. They added something truly special to our day, and our guests are still raving about them. If you’re looking for a band for your wedding or private event, I can’t recommend Rocktonight enough. Reach out to Laura — she’ll take great care of you!"
Sinatra Experience
"The perfect accompaniment to the cocktail party Everything, from start to finish, was perfect. Mark was very flexible and professional. Every detail was taken care of and the band sounded incredible. Everyone enjoyed the experience and I’m very grateful to David for creating the perfect atmosphere for my cocktail party. Thank you very much!"
The Swing Empire
"The Swing Empire have performed at several key events for us recently including the Cornwall Tourism Awards, our wedding open day and our New Years Eve celebration and they were amazing on each occasion! We had so many positive guest comments and feedback that we just had to book them again for this New Years. With a great variety of songs, interaction with the crowd and very smartly dressed what more could you want! Excellent musicians and certainly a band that we will be recommending for future events that The Headland organise and also for our clients weddings and corporate events."
MiSax
"Your performance was just what we hoped for, backed by real talent and warmth. Your music brought effortless, beautiful precision to our reception. Never overdone, always just right.
Thanks a million MiSax!"
The Sax Player
"Whether as MD, arranger or instrumentalist (or as is often the case, all three), Simon brings a level of rock-solid professionalism that makes everything a pleasure. His exceptional talents as an instrumentalist go without saying. But he is a dependable and hugely reassuring presence onstage and great fun off it. A real asset to any ensemble.
Alexander Armstrong"
Hot Shoes
"We couldn't have been more delighted with Hot Shoes performance, the dance floor was packed from the moment they started and stayed that way for the whole set!"
