3-Piece Band:

We searched carefully for the type of band which we felt would suit the mix of ages at our party and may I say that booking The Watchtowers fitted the bill perfectly. From the moment we booked them communication was easy - they are all lovely guys and we're quick to respond to our questions and were so helpful and patient when I had a few problems sorting our playlist. On the actual evening they did a fantastic job, even accommodating our pre-arranged requests for them to play such diverse choices as Johnny Cash, Foo Fighters and Sophie Ellis-Bextor! They played 3 sets for us which our guests there had a great time dancing to and everyone agreed that the band were brilliant and made the party so enjoyable. In fact, several guests said that they wanted the same party again the following week! We definitely award them 5 stars and wouldn't hesitate to book them again if ever we're fortunate enough to host another event.

We want to say a huge thankyou to The Watchtowers as they were brilliant. Everyone commented how good the band were. They really set the tone for the evening and kept the dance floor full all night. We loved the mix of songs they played, especially the mash ups. 5/5 and would definitely recommend and book again!!!!
Lucy
The Watchtowers were simply brilliant! They made the end of our day extra special, firstly by playing our first dance and then keeping us and our guests dancing all night. We've only heard such good things about them from our guests afterwards. We would 100% recommend them for any special event! Thank you for being part of a special day.

The Watchtowers were incredible! Our guests still tell us how much they loved the band. They had a great playlist that got people dancing the night away and their covers of songs were done so well. They fitted into the day really well with set up being barely noticeable to us or our guests.

We booked The Watchtowers for our wedding, knowing that we wanted a live band to keep people dancing all night long, and they didn't disappoint as the dance floor was full all night. They were so accommodating with all of our requests for the songs we wanted playing, as well as playing father daughter and mother son dance songs before leading in to our first dance. They also conspired behind our backs with my now father-in-law to join them on stage as a surprise to perform a rendition of 'Brown Eyed Girl' for his wife. We couldn't be happier with The Watchtowers performance and they were a fantastic way to cap off a fantastic day.
Lauren
We hired The Watchtowers for my sisters wedding. They were super friendly, professional and flexible to the changing timings during the evening. The music was great and everyone enjoyed it so much. They got everyone up and dancing which is exactly what I had hoped for. Would definitely recommend them!! Thanks for making my sisters party so much fun.
Amy & Tom
Amazing band, really made our evening! We've had so many comments since our wedding about the music on the night which was something really important for us. If we have any parties in the future we'd be delighted to book the band again!
Colin & John
Brilliant! Just what we wanted for the evening of our big day. The band were so lovely on the evening and were really accommodating with our set list. Communication with them leading up to the day was really easy and made the whole process stress free.
Jamie & Emily
Perfect evening to a perfect day. The Watchtowers had our guests on the dance floor from their first note till their last. We're both huge music lovers so picking a band with such a varied setlist was crucial for us and they did not disappoint. We'd absolutely recommend The Watchtowers to anyone we know getting married in the future.
