The Risen were absolutely incredible at the event on Saturday, they got the whole group up and dancing. The feedback we have had from the client has been nothing but amazing! They said that they finished off the night perfectly! Thanks again for everything.

Jo Popowycz, Wedding, Cheshire
Hi Matt / Rich, Thank you so much for entertaining us at our wedding. All the guys were just lovely and Rich you were a great sport with my guests who truly believed that they were part of the band (including me!!) I have a couple of my friend who are getting married soon and have asked for your details so you may have to trek up north again boys.... Again many thanks, you were brilliant!! Regards Mr & Mrs Holding x

Vanessa and Russ, Wedding
Hi guys, just to say a great big THANKYOU for last Saturday - What a night - I haven't seen that many people 'po-go-ing' for about 20 years! Absolutely ROCKING - everyone really enjoyed you guys, and said you were the best band they had heard - you made our wedding night complete and perfect - once again – thankyou.

Catherine, School Ball
Hello boys, just wanted to say a HUGE thanks for Saturday night. You were all totally amazing and made the night complete. You are going to be the talking point of the night for years to come. I hope to see you all again soon, everyone is a bit sick of hearing me rave about you now I think! And seriously, I have a sheet full of girls names who are desperate to meet you (a few boys as well actually!!) and I may pass them onto you for a small fee!! Anyway, take care and thanks again for making the night!!

James, Woodlocks festival
Hi guys, I spoke to you when you came off stage, just want to say you are the best band I have ever seen live. Everyone I was with was saying you play the songs better than the actual artists themselves. The singer is fantastic as are the rest of you. I will definitely come and see you guys again.

Jenny, Wedding
Fantastic band, great bunch of guys, perfect ending to a perfect day. You really got the crowd going and we all loved it. My sister is getting married next year and she has asked for your details so hopefully we will see you again.

Acoustic
The band also provide a chilled out acoustic set which consists of the same songs performed on acoustic guitars, hotrods on drums and fantastic three piece harmonies. The acoustic set is very popular with smaller more intimate venues or if a client is looking for quality low key background music.
