"The amount of options were amazing, and they got the crowd involved which was so much fun. All our guests said how brilliant they were - you could tell as nobody was off the dance floor whilst they did their sets! I’d highly recommend, thank you so much!"
"The Upshots played at our wedding and we loved them! They put on an incredible performance, nice people, easy to deal with even as our schedule slipped time-wise. We had another band (arranged outside of FixTheMusic) stop responding 4 weeks before the wedding and found ourselves looking for alternatives last minute. We got in touch with The Upshots, their manager was quick to respond, flexible, upfront and transparent about requirements. Even our wedding planner said this was one of the most easygoing bands she's worked with. Overall, again, we loved them!"
"We couldn't have asked for a better wedding band! They were absolutely amazing. So many of our guests commented on how brilliant they were! They were incredibly talented and made our wedding evening so special. We would highly recommend them to anyone! Thank you so much!!"
"They were INSANE. So much better than we ever could’ve even dreamed. Everyone was on the dance floor the entire night including them bringing the vibes! Worth every penny and flying them to Cyprus! Thank you!!"
