The Arrival

Mota
"I booked the MOTA boys for the Station's New Year's Eve party. They sounded great, played lots of well-known popular songs and got the audience going. Looking forward to booking them again soon."
The Firebeats
"Thank you for a wonderful night!! We hope to see you again in 2024."
The 40 Thieves
"Thanks for your set at our local community festival over the weekend. It was very well received and it was lovely to see lots of people singing along to all the classics you played. Hopefully you'll be available for us to have on the bill again next year."
Reverie
"I booked Reverie last minute for a New Years event as my act fell through last minute. They were consummate professionals and provided an amazing night of entertainment. You will not be disappointed if you book this band, they are AMAZING!"
South West Band
"We wanted something a little different for our wedding — not just the typical DJ playing the same songs on repeat. Since we absolutely love live music, we knew the band had to be something special. When I came across South West Band on Instagram, I was instantly blown away. From the first clip I saw, I knew they were the ones. Not only are they unbelievably talented, but they also know exactly how to get the crowd hyped and keep the dance floor full all night long.
Honestly, BOOK THEM — it’s an absolute must! They were one of the best parts of our entire day, and we have zero regrets. If we could do it all over again, we’d choose them in a heartbeat. 10/10, without a doubt!"
