The guys were absolutely brilliant and very professional for my daughter's special day. They arrived suited and booted, nice and early to set up and played a wonderful set during the reception drinks. Tom was a delight to deal with throughout the booking process, very easy to contact and I would strongly recommend them to anyone who wants to set their day off with a swing!
