Chris, and the band played at our wedding on Saturday 3rd June, which was their first gig and they were AWESOME!! We can not thank them enough for the energy they bought to the party. They really got the crowd going with their moves and interaction with the guest's whilst performing , there wasn't an empty space on the dance floor. We knew their performance was going to be great but had no idea it was going to be as good as that, it was another level! We've had so many great comment's from our guest. I really couldn't recommend them enough
