Aiden Grimshaw
"Aiden and co helped make our day truly magical. Such talented musicians with beautiful arrangements and unusual covers. Aiden's voice was rich and soulful and the whole process of booking with them was a delight. Thank you so much!"
Sister Big Stuff
"Great. The best performance we’ve had in the Angel."
Midnight Shindig
"Before Alicia and Michael got engaged we had been on a few amazing nights out where Midnight Shindig had played. We knew a great band makes an evening wedding party....and they 210% did. Midnight Shindig- you were amazing. For Paul and I (and I feel confident to speak for the bride and groom as well) you were the cherry on our cake. Thank you SO SO much for the memories. ??"
Retrophonic UK
"I can’t recommend Retrophonic enough. So many of our guests after the wedding said how great they were. They were really professional and friendly, working with us to get a set list we’d love. They sounded amazing and most importantly got everyone up dancing. Definitely one of the best wedding bands out there!"
Justin Holcroft
"Justin’s performance was intimate and stunning at the same time. Great communication, very effective preparation and coverage by someone who can play the sax, from Jazz, swing to lounge and bar background music. We would highly recommend Justin to anyone interested in high-quality, paired with a down-to-earth mindset and to-the-point delivery."
Dark and Stormy
"Such a great band, sound fabulous, music that gets you up to dance too.
Highly recommend to go and see."
