The Big Fat Party Band
"Horizon played at my husband’s 50th birthday villa party in Marbella and they were absolutely spectacular. They played all the classic rock and pop hits we grew up with and the sound quality was fantastic. The band brought so much life and energy to our garden setup, and they really interacted with all our guests. Thank you for making it a night to remember for everyone."
Shoot To Thrill
"Shoot To Thrill were phenomenal throughout. From setting up, to sound check, to the incredible performance on our wedding day, they were fantastic. Our guests loved the music and we have been delighted by the comments we have received from our guests. The musicianship, the perfect sound and the choice of songs were all spot on. Can only say a massive 'thank you'."
The Krakens
"From start to finish we have nothing but praise for The Krakens. Chris was quick to respond to my enquiry looking for a band to play at a 30th birthday party and kept in touch from then on. We were sent a varied list of songs to choose from; a mix of rock/pop both modern and classic. Once the booking was confirmed they asked us if there was anything we wanted added to the list and they would learn them for the evening! On the night the band turned up on time, and set up (and packed up) without any bother. Their performance was totally satisfactory, two excellent one-hour sets which included our requested numbers. Everyone agreed that The Krakens were a friendly, “tight” band that performed with confidence and professionalism which made our night that bit special. Would definitely recommend them!"
Nuclear fusion
""Big shout out for Nuclear Fusion. They were fantastic! Played an excellent mix of tunes that had all ages up and partying. And they played them really well. We've had loads of people commenting on how brilliant they were. Very highly recommended. Thank you for a great night Nuclear Fusion!! 🥳💃🕺🎸"
We had such a great time. Thank you. Lots have asked us for the name of the band!! 👌"
The Big Phat Jukebox
"Great night from a great band, highly recommended !!"
The PommyGranites
"Well what can I say.
You four were absolutely amazing on Saturday. So many said on the night and are still saying today, how fantastic the band was.
You really done Steve and I proud and we are so grateful for what you did regarding the toast, the poem and the Oasis song. I heard that a lot of people had a cry and were very emotional, especially the families of the other two boys.
The whole night was a fabulous evening, made even more fabulous by you guys and the sets that you performed. Loved every single song and putting in some of the songs I mentioned was amazing, thank you.
As you probably noticed, actually can’t see how you didn’t, I was on the floor making a fool of myself with my footwork and shapes, but do you know, I don’t care. I love a bit of music and a dance. I must admit that my legs were ready to scream at me towards the end but at least they lasted. I was on them from 7.00 in the morning till 1.00 the next morning so I think they had a right to protest. I’ve had them for such a long time they are getting a tad worn out now!!! 🤣
Once again, thank you for agreeing to perform, for all the hard work you put in and for doing the emotional part. Oh and for agreeing to me having a little play with your mic.
We both feel that we have known you forever, you are so easy to talk to and are great company. If we ever have another do like that, you are top of our list,
Once again you four, thank you for Saturday and it was a pleasure having you. Leslea & Steve"
