Vicky Hall, Lyndsey from “Teachers”, Channel 4 and E4
Thank you so much guys! I can’t believe how much I enjoyed the night! Loved everything about the act. Thanks for all the effort and energy you put into my wedding and the performance: you must all have all been exhausted by the end! You are a wicked act, I would wish you good luck but you don’t need it!

Julie and Chris Hayward, Leaving Party, Fakenham
Just a quick note to say Thank-You to The Connectors for providing such fantastic entertainment for our party last Saturday night. Everything was just superb, from the costumes, sound and choice of music. Everyone really enjoyed themselves and I am sure we will be talking about the band for a long time!

Kieran lowe, ASI Sound and Light Engineer
This band is worth at least double what they charge…

Catherine Monagham, Footballers’ Wives, Channel 4
The Connectors were absolutely fantastic. The musicianship in the band is of a very high standard, the costumes are excellent, a great show.

Simon Copeman, Wedding
The Connectors were absolutely brilliant, exactly what we wanted. We had seen them before so we knew that they would be good but they really brought the house down. Initially they put up with us being late, then they played without a break for 2 1/4 hours to ensure that we got value for money and enjoyed ourselves. They also sang a couple of specially rehearsed Christmas medleys that were fantastic. Everyone was dancing from the 4 year olds to the 70 year olds.... I thought my Dad was going to collapse!! Some people commented that they were the best band they had ever seen. I would thoroughly recommend them to anyone for their professionalism, talent and the fact that they are also great people who really get on with the audience. Thanks to Alex and the band...you made our day!

Heino and Bonnie Teschmacher, 25th Wedding Anniversary Party, Stapleford Park
We have just returned from a few days abroad after our weekend at Stapleford Park. We wanted to thank you and the band for a top performance, much outstripping our expectations. I’m sure it was clear to everyone that the enthusiasm to stay on the dance floor was a perfect indicator for everyone’s impression of the band. It was excellent in all respects. The music, the feel for the public mood, the passion of the band members and the willingness and commitment to just keep on going without a break. Once again, thank you very much.

Sarah Reynolds, The Oscar Reynolds Fund
I would like to thank you for making Saturday night such a success. We all had an amazing evening, partly due to you for entertaining us. We have been asked to do another one, which will probably be in 2009 and I would have no hesitation in hiring you again. Once again, many thanks for all your help and co-operation on the evening and as you know, we also raised a staggering £28,000 for the charity. This was beyond anything I could have hoped for.

Susanna Richardson, Wedding Co-Ordinator
A HUGE thank you to you all, it was amazing last night. You guys are without doubt the best function band I've seen and worked with. Matt doing Sway was awesome!

Sarah & Tim Curtis, Wedding
I did not have the chance to thank the band on Saturday night so please can you pass on my thanks for an absolutely fantastic performance. Everybody at the wedding commented on how superb the band were. They lived up to all my expectations and contributed to a thoroughly enjoyable day. I would also like to thank you for your help before the event. You were always so helpful and reassuring when I spoke to you. I would recommend ‘The Connectors’ without any hesitation.

Rebecca Calden-Storr
You guys rocked! Thank you so much. Absolutely brilliant.

Mrs Sara House, Masonic Ladies Night
The Connectors, What can I say! You were fantastic! Thank You so much for making our Masonic Ladies Night such as success. You gauge the audience so well and made sure everyone had a thoroughly enjoyable evening. I received lots of comments about you being the best band that we have ever had at such an event. I have to admit that you are more expensive than most acts that we use at these events – but you were worth every single penny.

Marian Williams and Nick Clark, Wedding, Stapleford Park, Leicestershire
We both want to say how fantastic and friendly The Connectors were, everyone that we see is still telling us how good you were. I cannot remember much but I do know that Matt took a lot of time researching the reggae selection and boy did he get it right, just wish he could have played more and longer. Once again thank you and all you band members for make our very special day that little bit better.
