Booked for Birthday party

When I went looking for a band for my husband's 60th Birthday party I didn't have a clue where to start. I discovered Poptop and searched through the bands available for the date. What helped me choose The Wonder Whys was their demo and the reviews they had on the site. It is always a leap in the dark when choosing a band for a one off event but I need not have worried. Contact via phone and email directly with the band prior to the party was friendly, timely and informative. I cannot praise the band highly enough, they obviously enjoy performing and their enthusiasm is infectious, their music was exactly what I wanted. Ours was a small event with a range of ages, but they got people up and dancing and the made the party complete. They have a fabulous sound, are lovely people and I cannot thank them enough for making the party perfect, would highly recommend. Husband was delighted and family and friends impressed.

Booked for Wedding

Funk City Band were perfect for our occasion. We wanted a band who'd get people up and dancing and they did that perfectly. Craig was very helpful and responsive in the lead up to the event too.

Booked for Wedding

We would just like to say that choosing Chameleon to do the evening entertainment for our wedding at Carlton Towers was the perfect ending to a magical day. We trusted their professionalism in the choice of music and they certainly didn’t let us down, people were dancing and singing along. The sound and lighting were spot on the voices blended beautifully. Thank you for a wonderful evening and would highly recommend chameleon for anyone’s up and coming event.

Booked for Wedding

Halos came to play at our wedding and they were absolutely INCREDIBLE! We really just can't recommend them enough - they totally brought the party for the evening. Both myself and my husband as well as all of our guests had an absolutely incredible time - our guests have talked about it as one of their favourite parts of the day. They were so flexible with their set list and the DJ was just perfect on the evening, playing lots of requests to keep our guests happy. The lead vocalist has to have a shout out - what a voice!! Thanks so much to the Halos for being part of our day and being utterly, utterly brilliant - everyone should book this band!
