"Hey Kev, Chris and Tim, we just want to say a massive thank you for playing our wedding on 31st July at The Old Vicarage. For anyone thinking of booking these guys, do it!! They are punctual and professional, they sound phenomenal, the recordings online don't really do them justice (and they are great too!). They were super accommodating with our vision of how the evening should run. We had a vintage feel to our country house wedding and their look complemented this perfectly. It was wonderful to have our first dance with a real band instead of a DJ. It made it feel very romantic for us. All of our guests loved having them, they had everyone up dancing, and their versions of the songs they play are sublime. We particularly loved their treatment of some Bob Marley classics that had everyone singing the lyrics back to them. They really do create the perfect party atmosphere. Highly recommended! Shaz & Jut."
