Verified booking on FixTheMusic"The band was fantastic and all our friends said how brilliant they thought they were. The dancefloor was full the entire time they played and they created a brilliant atmosphere. They sounded very professional. They were a great fit for our barn wedding and would recommend them to anyone looking for something more authentic and not too overpowering either. Please pass on our thanks!"
