Photo of The Ultimate Party Band UK The Ultimate Party Band UK "We first saw you when you were presenting the karaoke in the 270 bar, you have got such charisma and charm.

Thank you" Based in Chesterfield, England (23 miles from Derby) Emma Louise Photo of The Spectrum The Spectrum "The spectrum played at two company events I organised and were fantastic. I've received so many emails from the attendees saying how great the band were. James and the band are so accommodating and nothing is too much trouble. Thanks so much guys!!" Based in Birmingham, England (35 miles from Derby) Racheal - Corporate awards Photo of Hard To Handle Wedding Band Hard To Handle Wedding Band "Hard to Handle played at our wedding in July 2021. During the booking process they were very professional, fast to reply, and answered all our questions. On the day they arrived on time and played a fantastic set, including our choice of first dance and lots of our requests. I would highly recommend them for a wedding or any other event, especially if you want a covers band leaning more towards the rock side like we did."
