Karen Hayward

Birthday Party. Hemel Hempsted. February 2023

Wow, Wow, Wow. What an amazing Rock band to have found. From the initial call with David, right through to the last song, what an amazing professional band. David and the team, met my brief perfectly. In fact, they went above and beyond for us. We had a Hawaiian theme and they decorated their speakers in grass skirts and flowers around the staging. All band members embraced the Hawaiian theme with loud shirts and bright colours. It was the little touches, like they sent my husband a birthday card and arrived before my first guests arrived, even though that meant being there a couple of hours before. It was the small touches, that made us so grateful and made an 50th Birthday celebration perfect. They were also able to meet my brief of 3 sets at 45 minutes each. Some of the other bands we spoke to, were very inflexible. Music was all in tune and the lead singer was amazing, fantastic vocal range. We love the song choices, but the last set just hit the mark to end a perfect evening. At one point the singer joined the guests on the dance floor, and we literally thought we were at some A lister rock concert. Amazing! No problems with the sound, and their equipment worked flawlessly throughout. All our guests commented on what a fantastic job they had done for us. Unlike other bands, what was nice, is that they had 1 price, that included everything, music, interval music, lights, travel. Nothing was too much trouble and David’s wife (so sorry I cannot remember your name) was able to support during the intervals and was out front, to help with turning the interval music up and down. Would definitely book again as loved every minute of their performances and professionalism. Keep rocking out and thank you once again. Karen & Paul x

Wedding Reception. Derbyshire. May 2023

We booked Twist of Rock for our wedding in May 2023. They were incredible!!! Always difficult to know completely what to expect when booking a band without having seen them play before, but these four were so so good. Brilliant music, incredible vocals, great fun and had everyone (including those who said they wouldn't!) dancing. Highly recommend if anyone is considering them.

Birthday Party. Suton. May 2023

The band were really great. We hired the band for my husbands 60th birthday. Great repertoire and we had many compliments about the music / band being really good. A different lady sang for our party (from the one we saw in one of their videos), and she was equally brilliant… obviously the band have a couple of singers they use all the time, so whichever singer you have, you can be guaranteed a fabulous sound. We could not have been happier. A very good experience dealing with David prior to the party. I always received a prompt response to any of my questions. An added bonus was that his wife put our choices of music (for when the band had a break) on a USB stick and played it through there PA. They also sent to us a video of them playing our “special” choice of music…. A lovely touch. Highly recommended.

Coporate Event, Diss. June 2023

Twist of Rock were amazing. Not only was the music performed to an incredibly high standard, they were the consummate professionals throughout the evening. They were very subtle in their set up and pack down and while being easily heard throughout the venue they did not overpower the room with their volume. I would highly recommend booking this band for any event, and I would not hesitate to book them again in future.

Had such a great night with Twist and Rock, they squeezed into the small area we had for them at our post wedding party and adjusted to our last minute location change! They were so professional and amazing! And all sounded even better than we could’ve imagined! The set up with the lights and everything made our party, and our personalised 1st dance was perfect!...

Birthday Party, Guildford. Sept 2023

Twist of Rock played for us at a combined 'father and son' birthday party in tipis in our garden. Communication with David pre the event was excellent and they were happy to iterate a bit on their suggested set lists to suit the occasion. The sound quality (music and vocals) and lighting were excellent on the night and they really got the multi-generational audience dancing! Everyone was impressed by the band with several friends asking 'where did you find these guys?' We will certainly book ToR for any future parties. Thank you! Phil & James

Wedding Reception - May 2022

Twist of Rock played beautifully at our wedding during May 2022. The band were so friendly, really organised, kept in contact (despite us not being so organised!). I felt like they really go out of their way to make sure you have a great time. Everyone had a fantastic time at the wedding reception, and David is still sending us nice clips they have of the night, which is a really nice touch! The singer Finola was also fantastic (as well as the rest of the band!). Can't fault them, I would certainly recommend these guys!! Thank you for creating such a fun night for us, we wish you all the best!

Great live band!

These guys played at my 50th birthday party and and totally blew us away. They really helped to make the evening special. Not your usual cheesy function band (in my opinion). They played a lot of the songs I would expect a function band to play, but they did each song in their own ricked up style. They also performed like a rock band should. very entertaining.

40th Birthday Party, December 2019

I booked Twist of Rock for my 40th birthday bash. They were brilliant! Very professional and very talented. My friends and family range in ages from 20 to 60 so I wanted a band that would appeal to all ages. I chose Twist of Rock because they have their own style and I wanted something a bit different from the typical function band. They had good communication before and during the event and were happy to add a few special request songs. I am booking them again for my company event later in the year.

Great wedding band!

Twist of Rock performed at our wedding reception in Jan 2020. We wanted an upbeat band to get everyone dancing and they were perfect. I would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting a good mix of rock and pop songs to suit a wide age range. We like 80s/90s rock and they managed to give us plenty of that, as well as playing more traditional and recent songs. David was very pro-active before the event to help us with the planning and co-ordinating with the venue, and they were very professional on the day.. Highly recommended.
