My 60th birthday party

5 stars - The Edge are Highly Recommended
booked The Edge for their party in Bristol May 2025

“Excellent- upbeat- very friendly, experienced band that confidently played all the songs that we had requested plus more. Read their audience well and even my partner - who has never been known to dance in public - he was on the dance floor - and that’s a miracle!”

booked The Lucky Sons for their event May 2025
