Curtis was amazing, great artist, all the guests commented on how good he was and he made our party something to remember. He is a really lovely guy and joined us after his session for some marshmallows over the fire and I will definitely book him again. I would 100% recommend him to anyone.

Neo Roots were absolutely incredible. They were flexible, responsive, professional and musically we could not fault them! The set list was perfect, something for everyone. From the under 3s to the over 80s, everyone was dancing and commenting on how much they enjoyed the band. NeoRoots have certainly found themselves a few new fans from our wedding and we cannot wait to see them play again! Thanks so much for helping making our wedding the most perfect day of our lives. Wouldn't have been the same without Neo Roots!

"Great job, thanks! Good selection of traditional songs (which was probably somewhat wasted on the audience). Loved the lights which were unexpected and very much appreciated the music at the end and letting us jump on the mic for a bit of dancing. Would definitely recommend! Thanks Katie."

"I must say these guys exceeded expectations. They played exactly the right kind of music for our 50th Anniversary. We had 90+ guests and they got ‘em up on the dance floor and kept them there all night. I have had nothing but good reports from all the guests. One of our guests has taken their details for a future booking. We have no hesitation in recommending them for similar events. I can also give a verbal or written references. A really good job and thank you all so much"

The group arrived on time and provided the surprise entrance that we wanted. Everyone loved them and thought that the music was very good. Although I asked them not to play any English music or songs and to keep it traditional Spanish, but lively, they did play some English although it went down well with the guests anyway. The only problem I experienced was trying to get hold of Franco beforehand. I contacted him a few weeks before and he said he would get back tio me a gcouplke of days later, but didn't . So I evntually managed to talk to him and sort things out, but it wsa getting very close to the day!

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
