"We booked the Hopeless Wanderers for our welcome party the day before our wedding. At the end of the evening, our guests said: 'We have no idea how you’re going to top this tomorrow, good luck!' What a wonderful group of guys, they absolutely brought the house down and played amazingly. Thank you, lovely band! We will recommend you to everyone ❤️"
"They were absolutely wonderful! The life of the party, I loved their set list. We danced all night. Would hire again in a heartbeat!"
"We hired The Hopeless Wanderers through FixTheMusic for our wedding and it was the best decision we made! From the initial booking, Federico from the band communicated regularly, shared videos of events and allowed us to choose our own playlist for their set. On the day of the event, they set up their speakers for our playlist when they were performing, provided lighting and smoke machines and were absolutely brilliant performers. We had the best party and we were so sad when the time came for it to end! All of our guests commented on how brilliant the band were and we just wish we could relive the night again! Thank you so so much Hopeless Wanderers. Fiona and Mike x"
"The Hopeless Wanderers played at our wedding at Casale de' Pasquinelli. We cannot recommend the band enough, they were so good the crowd loved them! A night we will never forget, thanks again, Gary & Trudie."
