Fran C booked Tuxedo for their wedding in North Yorkshire • July 2026

“We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding band! Tuxedo were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. They were so much fun, incredibly talented, and brought exactly the vibe we wanted to our wedding. As soon as they started playing, the dance floor was packed and stayed that way all night.

5 stars - The Atoms are Highly Recommended
Steven F booked The Atoms for their party in West Yorkshire • July 2026

“The Atoms were fantastic at my 50th Birthday Party. They really made the night . Communication prior with Jim from the band was great (Teams call a few weeks before event to discuss timings and what songs I liked and didn’t like). They were fab on the night, and had to battle with England World Cup game versus Norway.

Communication prior with Jim from the band was great (Teams call a few weeks before event to discuss timings and what songs I liked and didn’t like). They were fab on the night, and had to battle with England World Cup game versus Norway. Fair play to them, they filled the dance floor once people heard how good they were. The choice of songs was perfect, finishing with Killers and Oasis as requested. All guests have commented how good the night and band were. The Atoms are genuinely nice fellas. Their aim was nothing more than to please me and all our guests. They reacted and tweaked their set when they needed to. Fantastic - the fact that a couple of my guests took their details indicates that they were impressive! ” Read more

Class Musicians

5 stars - The Emulators are Highly Recommended
Louise F booked The Emulators for their party in Hampshire • July 2026

“The Emulators played for our 60th Birthday party. They were lovely easy going guys and fantastic musicians. We have had so many compliments about them from guests and wouldn't hesitate to rebook or recommend them. Steve, Brian and Paul, you had your work cut out competing with an England football match, but your selection of music still managed to pack out the dance floor all night. Thank you fo...”“The Emulators played for our 60th Birthday party. They were lovely easy going guys and fantastic musicians.

Wedding Band Perfection!

5 stars - Hipster are Highly Recommended
Chloe E booked Hipster for their wedding in Shropshire • July 2026

“We booked Hipster through Alive Network, and from the very beginning, the experience was fantastic. Our Alive Network agent (Gemma Jane) was amazing throughout the whole process, providing great advice on our band, other musicians throughout the day, timings, and helping with any questions or changes we had along the way.

Our Alive Network agent (Gemma Jane) was amazing throughout the whole process, providing great advice on our band, other musicians throughout the day, timings, and helping with any questions or changes we had along the way. The communication and support were first class from start to finish. As for the band – Hipster were totally brilliant! Joe and his bandmates were incredibly helpful and professional. They arrived early to set up the PA system for our speeches, played our entrance song perfectly, and then kept the party going all night long. They even accommodated a special request from our MC’s who decided they wanted to have their own entrance song! We wanted as much band time as possible, right through to the end of the night so there was no ‘winding down’, something both Alive Network and Hipster were very willing to accommodate. One of the standout moments for us, was when England won their quarter-final. As soon as Hipster got the nod, they seamlessly transitioned into ‘It's Coming Home’, which had everyone singing and celebrating together – it was such a brilliant touch and created a moment on the day we'll never forget. The dancefloor was full from the first song to the last, and we've genuinely lost count of the number of guests who have told us how incredible the band were. Their energy, talent, and ability to read the room were second to none. A huge thank you to Joe, Hipster, and Alive Network for making our wedding day so special. Will & Chloe ” Read more

Everyone loved Dirty Weekend!

5 stars - Dirty Weekend are Highly Recommended
Alison J booked Dirty Weekend for their party in Hertfordshire • July 2026

“Dirty Weekend delivered exactly what we wanted and fitted in with the vibe of a relaxed summer party perfectly. They were very professional and happy to flex the programme to allow us to watch England in the World Cup once we knew they would be playing on the evening of the party. Communication and planning before the event was excellent - I would highly recommend them. Thank you!”
