Photo of Vintage Boombox Vintage Boombox "Hey I’m a stripper and we had you guys play at my 68 birthday, just wanna know where you found the nerve to upstage me on day I’ve dreamed since I was a boy, hope I never encounter you again or it will be on-site 💜" Based in Dublin, Leinster, Ireland Oisin Maher - Stripper party Photo of The WeegieBeats The WeegieBeats "Fantastic experience all round…the band were so professional as well as being excellent musicians and the set list appealed to all ages at the party. Everyone was up dancing and all the guests mentioned how excellent the band were. We also had a sax set which was beautiful. Finally the band were so friendly and made my birthday celebration a brilliant event. Thank you so much." Based in Glasgow, Scotland 29th July 2026 Hannah - 40th birthday Photo of Kerrie Stirling Kerrie Stirling "We were absolutely delighted to have Kerrie play at our family wedding. From the moment she arrived, she brought such warmth, energy and positivity that instantly added to our day. Not only is she incredibly talented but she is also so friendly , approachable and accommodating. She went above and beyond to make our celebration special, even taking the time to learn a song she hadn’t played before because it was important to us. Our dance floor was packed and guests of all ages were up dancing and enjoying themselves. Kerrie’s talent , professionalism and genuine passion for what she does shone through in every moment. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend her for any wedding party or special event. She truly helped make our day unforgettable. Thank you Kerrie for being such a special part of our celebration" Based in Glasgow, Scotland 3rd July 2026 Karen Walsh - Wedding Photo of Champagne Charlie Champagne Charlie "I was the photographer at the same wedding as the band and I have to say guys you were unbelievable. Best I have seen a long time. For me it made things a lot easier because all of the staff were having such a good time it made the action pictures amazing. Can’t wait to work with you again" Based in Liverpool, England Dave Meaney - Private Wedding Photo of The Funtime Frankies The Funtime Frankies "Amazing from start to finish - talented, fun, energetic, feel good - you just want to dance! Have played at a few functions for us and would definitely want them to entertain us again in the future! 9 Piece - Awesome!!!" Based in Leyland, England John - Corporate Event Photo of The Upbeats Duo The Upbeats Duo "We found ‘The Upbeats musical duo’ online and contacted them. They were quick to get back to us and communicating with them via email was easy throughout the preparations for our wedding reception. Peter and Rachel recommended the music for us, which was perfect, but were more than happy for us to give them a list of other music, if we had so wanted. From the moment they began singing, everyone was up dancing. We did ask for a particular song for our first dance and Peter and Rachel were only too happy to accommodate. We had the most amazing night, as did our guests. We highly recommend Peter and Rachel and will definitely be calling upon them for future parties." Based in St Helens, England Debbie & Martin - Private Wedding
