"We wanted to say a big thank you to The Upshots for making our wedding reception so memorable. The music was fantastic and a real highlight for our guests too with music for everyone's tastes. Everyone said how much they enjoyed the band’s sets and the DJ kept guests thoroughly entertained right until the end. Communication before the day was great and they were flexible in working to our plan for the day and always available to answer any questions we had. Overall a great choice of band that we would recommend!"

"The Upshotss gave an amazing performance at my birthday party on Saturday. Their playlist got everyone on their feet and the lead singers were interacting with the dancers and everyone commented on how great they were! The arrangements were straightforward, timings agreed that worked with buffet etc. Band set up, then cleared up without any fuss or bother. It wasn’t the exact line up I had seen before but the performance was outstanding. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend these talented musicians."

"Really exceptional people and music, we had a wonderful time in our wedding in Morocco. Everything went really smooth their performance was insane and wouldn’t hesitate one second to book them again!"

"11/10 - these guys were UNREAL. They absolutely brought the party and all good vibes. The roaming band throughout dinner were SO good, they knew exactly how to get the room going - people were standing up on chairs from the start. I don’t want to go to a wedding without a roaming band ever again ;). They continued the party into the dance floor and people could not get enough! Would recommend to anyone and everyone looking to book a band for a party, wedding, or other function. So so so good!"

– Meg Russell, 27 October 2025, wedding at Crucis Park, Cirencester, UK
