Shoeshine

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for Saturday evening! Phil & I, along with all our friends and family, thoroughly enjoyed Shoeshine’s performance! We really enjoyed our first dance song. Your music and band was the perfect addition to our wedding so thank you! Please pass on our thanks to the rest of the band.

Thank you very muck to Shoeshine for making our day a really special one. The band arrived and were attentive to the fact we were sitting down. They agreed to where we were wanting them to set up and didn't make any undue noise in the background for their sound checks. The first two sessions were perfect music for the day (it was really hot and everyone was outside) but the last session had loads of us on the dance floor and finished off what was a perfect day (even leaving some background music to the last minute!)

The service has been fantastic and I would recommend Shoeshine and the Hireaband staff easily.

Shoeshine

Thank you so much for Thursday. My client loved the music and was so
happy. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you again

Shoeshine

Thank you for the lovely music during the evening. Everyone enjoyed
this very much. I'm sorry you didn't get any cake but I hope the Ritz
looked after you well while you were there

Shoeshine

Thank you so much for Friday night we had a great night. You guys were
fab. Thank you for your cooperation and quick response with emails. We
wish you all the very best for the future

Shoeshine

Played great sets at our wedding in Switzerland, both jazz at the aperitif,
and rock/pop/indie at the party. 4 piece including sax. Something for
everyone, everyone got on the dancefloor from my 91 year old great
uncle to all my friends.

Shoeshine

Firstly, really friendly guys who were able to be flexible with what suited
our corporate event. Got back to me really quickly and were early on the
day to make sure they were set up. Plus played great music which I know
the client loved. Would definitely recommend and book again

Shoeshine

Your rendition of the song for our first dance was perfect, and all of our
guests commented on how much they enjoyed the music. I'd have no
hesitation in recommending you to anyone for their own events. We
really did have a perfect day, and we are very grateful to you for helping
to make it so special.
