Claire Stringer, Wedding, Guildford, Surrey
Hi Matt, Thank you for your email, I didn't experience any problems and would definately recommend Warble & The Big Sur without any hesitation. You always replied very quickly and I didn't have any issues. The booking process was very simple and most importantly the band were amazing and we have rang Luke personally to thank them. Many Thanks.

Louisa Phillips, Wedding Chester, Cheshire
Hi Matt, We had a FABULOUS night!! The guys were lovely. helpful, polite and a laugh. The standard of music was excellent - very talented musicians. We had indicated which tracks we would like to be played and they accommodated most of our requests. We wanted our evening do to feel like a party rather than a reception and that was achieved in spades. The venue we chose helped but the band really did make the night - all the guests commented on how great they were. I had mentioned that I may want to sing a few numbers as being a singer myself I knew that my guests would probably expect it! The guys were quite happy to accommodate this and even set up an extra mike for me which I thought was so great of them. We would definitely use them again - do they do their own stuff? A friend of mine who lives near them fancies going to a gig! I have enclosed a photo so you can see the kind of night we had!!

General Manager of the Doghouse, Guernsey
This is the first cover band I’ve seen here in ages that has played an original and diverse set. We will definitely have them back. Fantastic!

Lindsay Gill
The music sent everyone into dancing frenzy before the guys were heckled for more. Best night of the year by far. I looked very pretty in my dress and think I may fancy the drummer.

Helen Wilsen (Corporate Function)
Phenomenal voice! I couldn’t get my head around how the singer could imitate every band they covered perfectly. They were so much fun and really made everyone laugh between songs. Not only that, but the keyboard player went round the party afterwards showing us the most incredible magic tricks!

Harry Jackson
I couldn’t believe it when they all swapped instruments and carried on playing through the night! It was amazing!

Dan Willis Clarkson (Birthday)
The tightest act I have ever seen. I would recommend them without a shadow of a doubt. It took about twenty seconds of their first song ‘I feel good – James Brown’ before the entire party was up and dancing.
