"“The Collection were the perfect choice for our wedding party. Wonderful musicians, hugely talented, and combining that musicianship with a huge sense of fun. The great thing was that the band really cared about our evening and their role within it. They played all the best party music, with a great mix of styles that appealed to all tastes. The band got everyone up and dancing. A wonderful day, and the band were the extra special bit that made our wedding so memorable. I would definitely use the band again and would recommend them to anyone – they are amazing!"

Verified booking on FixTheMusic"Just wanted to say that Sinead and I are beyond grateful for everything you and the band did for us. It was a day that we will never forget which was finished off in style with such a fantastic band. Not only was the swagger and musicality flawless throughout the evening but we were so grateful for letting people occasionally sing along with the band. Everything was so fluid and there was a perfect mix of everything people wanted to hear, I don’t think the dance floor was empty once! I don’t think we’ll ever be able to put into enough words how grateful we are but thank you for helping make it one of the most memorable evenings we’ve ever had. We will do whatever we can to spread the word about the band but I’m pretty sure all 180 odd guests are still talking about it now!"
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"Absolutely loved the 3 piece band, the guys made my 30th birthday party a blast and played all the classics and current hits that got everybody doing all kinds of dance moves. would highly recommend them!"
