"The Mad Socks played our wedding and were absolutely amazing!! We booked them on a bit of a whim as our friends had seen them and recommended them and it totally paid off! So many people have commented to us how great they were. They really had a great sound and a constant smile on their face. Would recommend them to anyone having a private event!"
