The Backbeats

Brilliant service from start to finish. The Backbeats really made our fantastic day even better. Everything about them is fantastic, more or less every guest at our wedding, said they were the best band they have seen at a wedding!! They also learned our first dance to perfection. We really cannot thank them enough!! Book this band for your wedding or event, they will not disappoint!!

The band were great with a good variety of song choices to keep everyone dancing all evening. Great that the band learnt our first dance song.

The band were absolutely fantastic and we've had loads of really positive feedback from the guests, not least from a man in his 60s who has seen millions of live acts including the Stones etc and thought that they were one of the best live bands he's seen in years! We loved how they played covers but tweaked to their style - they were all lovely guys too!

In summary from start to finish the band were exceptional. Tom as the lead point of contact for the band was superb and we couldn't have asked for more help in terms of answering questions, recording demos and supporting our every need. On the day they arrived before time, and integrated brilliantly into the vibe we were trying to create for the wedding. In terms of sound, songs played and getting everyone on the dance floor we couldn't have asked for better. Tom, and the band, thank you for helping to make our woodland wedding an amazing day, and we would quite happily recommend them many times over to anyone who needs a band for their wedding!

Thank you for doing such a brilliant job on our wedding day. When we envisaged having a band play us out if the church you were exactly what we had hoped for! You were all such gentlemen and so lovely and kind. Thank you also for letting me play along with you for a song, it was a real highlight of the day for my wife and for myself.

Wonderful experience from start to finish! So polite, friendly and fantastic on the day! Thank you to you all! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend!!!!!!!!

Everyone loved the band, especially with the addition of the saxophonist. They were very professional and catered to all guests. Would definitely recommend to friends!

Thank you all so so much for yesterday, absolutely amazing day and brilliant sets. All the guests were amazed at your music. Fantastic!

They were brilliant! Great fun, super music and got the guests all fired up for an awesome party! Thank you!

The boys were fantastic. They went down really well and were a pleasure to have perform for us, a lovely bunch of lads.

The sets you guys played were simply fab. The number of people who came up to me and said how the band were the best they had ever heard was extraordinary, and they were completely right!! Thanks guys, really made the evening, there were a lot of happy people!!

For those of you who don’t like long reviews; these guys are fantastic, talented and really made our wedding. Stop your search and book them.
For a slightly longer review read on... from the moment of booking the band stayed in contact and always made communication when they stated they would, this included running through running order/arrival time, sorting out the playlist and if we had any special requests for the day. Tom arrived before the rest of the band with all his equipment at the time we had agreed, he then proceeded to transport their equipment to the venue and start setting up. First of all, Tom is an extremely friendly and likeable person. He offered to help out with anything as we were running behind he performed a few errands for us and generally helped us out for which we are very grateful. On to the music, as a band they are a very talented bunch, we left the set list up to them and my goodness did they deliver a fantastic blend of current and past music which had all age groups dancing, singing or at the very least tapping their foot along! I’m no Simon Cowell but they sounded fantastic with an excellent range throughout varying songs and genres. This coupled with the fact they were able to interact and react to the various unplanned situations during their set (first dance etc) made them an excellent choice for the wedding. An added twist, was that our wedding was a surprise wedding, with our guests turning up and expecting an engagement party, the band were extremely discreet and the surprise went down a storm. We spent hours and hours searching for a band for our wedding by the end of it all their samples seem to sound the same, save yourself the hassle and book The Backbeats. A fantastic night had by all. THANK YOU GUYS!

Morning Tom / Irving,

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to say that the band were excellent on the weekend. Really talented and created the perfect atmosphere for the wedding party!

They got a lot of compliments! And thanks for both your help in making it so easy to arrange!

Great bunch of lads and our guests loved the fact that they moved around the venue and mingled, playing music to suit the guests they were playing to at that time. We even got them to play our first dance live which we are so so glad we did as they nailed it. Thanks to The Backbeats for helping to make our wedding even more memorable.

I know I thanked you last night about 5 times but wanted to put it down in print! We had the most fantastic evening last night and you were fabulous . I have had so many people thanking us and singing your praises. Can't thank you enough. I am sure we will be in touch again.

We were incredibly pleased that we chose The Backbeats to provide the live music at our wedding. They were always professional and both we and our guests enjoyed the entertainment. Their song repertoire was varied and well executed. We would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for a great band.

LOVE THEM - Fabulous! Great feedback from the night. Would 100% recommend them again and we didn't want them to stop! Thank you!

They were excellent. Very sociable and eager to please; their playing and repertoire was an extremely pleasant backdrop to our daughter's wedding breakfast. We would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone for a wedding reception, or any other gathering... professional and well-delivered acoustic music.

Thank you for last weekend! We had an absolutely amazing time and everyone was just full of overwhelming praise for you guys. Thank you SO much for going with my crazy idea & playing round the campfire. It was lovely.

A big thank you from Mike and I for helping our party go so well last Friday - we had a lot of compliments about your music and singing. We thoroughly enjoyed it and your contribution gave a lovely atmosphere. As I said on the night, I would be more than happy to recommend you to anyone.

Thanks for making our street party such a success. Your choice of music was excellent, you sounded fabulous and, most importantly, you got people dancing.

Thanks for everything on Saturday; you guys were everything we were looking for. You made our evening excellent.

The Backbeats surpassed all our expectations, they were brilliant. They played a great mix of upbeat songs and had everyone dancing. They are a great group of guys and they looked like they were enjoying themselves as much as we were. Their set-up was great (lighting etc), they set their sound levels perfectly and their vocals were fantastic. We could not have asked for a better way to end the evening. They even let us play our own playlist through their equipment during their breaks.

We can't thank you guys enough for agreeing to make the trip to Italy to play at our wedding. Jasper and I fell in love with your music the moment we heard you play. All our guests have been saying how much they loved "the band" and it was your music that really set the mood for both the ceremony and the party!!!! We thank you from the bottom of our hearts

The Backbeats were absolutely fantastic, they had everyone at our wedding up and dancing and they played our first dance - which was a request song - beautifully. We've had so many lovely comments about them. Tom and the band were really relaxed and easy to work with which was a blessing in the run up to, and on the day of, our wedding. Thanks for helping to make our day so special!

They were absolutely brilliant at our wedding last Saturday. They played the first dance song of our choice perfectly, and a good mix of old and new songs to get the guests dancing. The band were quick to respond to any questions before the day, and nothing was too much trouble to make sure the day was perfect. Thank you so much for making our day special!

The perfect band for my 30th birthday. You were all great - thanks guys!

We couldn’t have had a more exciting band. They were brilliant, provided a great mix of music & truly made it a night to remember.

Feel good songs performed in such a unique way. Everybody loved it!

What a fantastic band, exactly what we wanted. Thank you so much.

The Backbeats were great, perfect for the venue and for the intimate wedding event. All our guests loved them.
