Absolutely amazing band! They kept our party going, everyone on the dance floor all night! Had so many people ask us who they were...would highly recommend them
"Absolutely loved this band! They looked and sounded incredible! Completely worth every penny and more!
If like us you appreciate good music, played well and don't want to compromise on it for your wedding then I would strongly recommend hiring this band. Every person I spoke to afterwards said they were the best wedding band they had ever heard and wanted their details. The dance floor was packed from start to finish whilst we got our funk on! Couldn't be happier with our decision! Thank you so much again.

I didn’t get a chance to speak to you last night!!
But oh my goodness you and the band were beyond our expectations – you were absolutely fabulous!
So many people said you were one of the best bands they have heard and everyone was having such a great time.
I really can’t thank you enough. I hope you had as much fun as we did

The Sessions performed at our wedding and were absolutely fantastic. We had excellent communication with them leading up to the event and on the night they performed brilliantly. We had several guests commenting (both to us and them!) that they were such a fantastic band and our dancefloor was packed all night. We only had 8 band members + sound engineer, as this was most applicable to our venue and budget but they we still amazing- you can book them with confidence!
"You guys were outstanding we will definitely give you a great review!
Thanks for the show- can’t believe it was a week ago already… We and our guests were all delighted with your performance and we’ve had only positive feedback.

Ditto what Tom has already said. The band were absolutely brilliant! All seemed to run like clockwork. Not too much space was taken up (appreciate you have to do what you need to) so there was enough dancing room, set up seemed quick, the first dance song was spot on, the mix of music was brilliant… The list goes on! Everyone who has commented on the wedding have all said how good you guys were/what are you called/where did we find you et"
