Reviews of Bands & Ensembles

String Musicians London
"I completely recommend this group! I am a musician myself so I hired a string quartet for my older brother’s wedding. I didn’t expect this level of professionalism and talent. My family loved it and are super thankful. I will surely be booking them again. Thank you so much"

Hayley Tribute Singer
"Hayley has a bubbly, fun personality and a great powerful voice. She is a versatile vocalist and sang a good mix of popular songs. She got everyone up and dancing!"

Beth - Rennee - York - Combe Haven holiday park
Florian & Ezio
"Florian & Ezio were fantastic on our wedding day! They added a lovely atmosphere to the ceremony. They even learned a special request for us, which meant a lot. Many of our guests commented on how talented they were – we couldn’t have asked for better!"
25th January 2025
Sarah & Tom - Wedding
The Newland Seekers
"Thank you very much Newland Seekers for playing at our Cricket Dinner. Your music really made the evening - a great selection to which everyone enjoyed dancing. I asked Bea (the reverend) if dancing was okay in the church. She said, God would be pleased. Thank you again. Hope you will be able to play again in June for our match"
28th January 2025
Rodney Bicton - Newland Cricket Club Annual Dinner Dance
Ukes of Hazzard
"The Ukes of Hazzard performed at our wedding ceremony and reception, and absolutely set the tone for a night to remember. Everything was smooth and professional and we loved the selection of songs. Guests constantly commented on how special they made the occasion, and what a unique and fun band they were. Would highly recommend booking the Ukes of Hazzard for your event if you’re looking something a bit different that guests and attendees will absolutely love!"

Maia & John

Frequently asked questions

You should always check whether or not your act is prepared to play outdoors. It’s sometimes not possible for acts that use a lot of electronic equipment to perform anywhere where it might rain.If the act is happy to perform outdoors you should plan to have electrical outlets close to the performance area and provide a flat surface as well as a cover in case of rain.
Each event is different but the typical performance time for bands & ensembles is 2 x 45 minutes sets within a 2 hours period. Some acts are happy to play longer sets or additional sets. Often, breaks can be negotiated but you should be aware that the price may increase if the musicians need to be onsite for a longer period of time.
Booking bands & ensembles as early as possible increases the chance of securing their availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many acts also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged performances for clients with just a few hours' notice.
Most bands & ensembles are self-contained and provide their own sound equipment which is suitable for typical situations. If your event is to be held in a large venue, or you have more than 300 guests, we recommend that additional sound equipment should be used. Always ask your act about their sound system requirements. Some bands & ensembles have lighting systems, but most usually will charge extra for this or recommend a third party supplier for you to use.
Frequently asked questions about Bands & Ensembles, how to register and how results are ordered are in the help & FAQs.
