Great energy, great guys, great band

5 stars - Groove City are Highly Recommended
booked Groove City for their party in Suffolk July 2025

“Jonny and the band were terrific. They played a great range of music which catered perfectly to the mixed age audience and incorporated songs I'd asked for in their set and in the playlist for between sets. They were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish and we particularly appreciated their flexibility on lots of topics - the music, the performance space (and its limitations) and on inco...”


Must-have for any venue that takes its live music seriously

5 stars - The Fever are Highly Recommended
booked The Fever for their event July 2025

“We’ve had The Fever play at our central London venue every couple of months for several years now, and they’ve quickly become one of our most in-demand live acts and a staff favourite. Every time they hit the stage, the energy in the venue lifts and they bring people down from upstairs to our basement bar so the dancefloor is packed. Their setlist is spot-on for our vibe – punchy...”


The Upstarts are amazing

booked Atomic Hi-Fi for their party in Worcestershire July 2025

“From the very start, the booking and deposit and set list, to the very end of the night, this whole experience was perfect. The musicians were friendly and professional. They fulfilled all their promises and exceeded our expectations. They arrived in plenty of time and began their set at just the right time; they played a wide repertoire from 50s to 2010, and every one was a 'banger'! Perfect for ...”
