Harmony In Harlem
"Harmony In Harlem performed at our wedding at the Plaisterers' Hall on London Wall in 2012. We thought that the band was fantastic - our guests loved it and at least one said it was the best music they have ever heard at a function - I certainly thought so!"
The Tributes
"Great Big Band with a very varied song list,, Not some of the usual stuff,, played different versions of 70s and 80s classics
Will be looking out for their next gig"
Dave Octave Sings
"We had a fantastic night, Dave Octave was welcoming entertaining and sang effortlessly. My guess all enjoyed his renditions. Thanks again"
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!"
Soul Vibe Band
"We hired Soul Vibe Band to play our wedding, and they were fantastic!
Kainy who was our contact was very helpful in the lead up to the wedding and was a pleasure to work with, and they even arranged something especially for our first dance, which we hugely appreciated. They keep the energy up and put on a great set, and for a six piece band were exceptionally reasonably priced. I would absolutely recommend them for anyone looking for their own wedding band!"
