"We had a wonderful day on Saturday and thank you to you all for making the evening such a success. You had your work cut out with there being so many rooms for people to drift into but you worked some magic with your music and everyone kept coming back to dance, full credit to you all – you were brilliant and I would have no hesitating in recommending you to anyone.
Please pass on my thanks to the others and I wish you all well. (Dawn – Mother of bride)

WOWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everyone had a completely brilliant time! It was just the business. Thankyou so much, you were all great. What a party, what a party!!
Loads of emails, texts and cards saying it was the best party they had ever been to since.......errr.......oh that's right, since your last party for us!
I am so impressed by your musicians........and the girls!!!!!! They were great! They were so into it, it was an evening's entertainment on its own just watching them!
Loved the way the sax player joined in with the singing in the last few songs, and you are all such pleasant people, which just adds to a general feeling of excellentness!
Utterly, utterly great, thanks from the bottom of my heart, it was a truly wonderful evening. Hope you got home at some sort of reasonable time!
Thanks again, it was a truly memorable event and it will be remembered forever.
Kind Regards
Duncan"
MK & the Misters
"MK & the Misters played at our Unity Festival, a charity food festival for the local community in east London. They were exceptional from start to finish, on time, set up well before the event began (even when everything else was running late), and the music was incredible. Even with heavy showers and a busy festival crowd, they were engaging, full of energy, and professional.
As an event manager they are exactly the band you are looking for when it comes to professionalism, entertainment and energy. Will definitely be booking them in the future."
