Elijah performed at my friend's garden hen party and was absolutely amazing! All of the hens (from 20 to 70 year olds) loved it as he really can play any song request so we had a total variety of music across the ages. We had such a brilliant time dancing to his performance that we actually asked Elijah if he wouldn't mind if we extended the set so we could carry on partying which he kindly agreed to. He was super responsive in the lead up to the event and also helped plan the element of surprise for the hen! I would definitely recommend Elijah - he really made the night and is super talented!

We had a party at our house in Kent for my wife's 40th this weekend and booked Halos to play (Jim and Julie as a duo). The music selection was superb as was Julie's voice and Jim's guitar playing. It was a pleasure to meet them both too - they are very friendly and highly professional. We, as well as all our guests, would recommend these guys so once again a big thank you for being an important part of a fantastic day. All the best!

Annelise was the perfect accompaniment to our wedding day. She was polite and respectful and could always be heard but not overpowering. Just what we needed for the afternoon tea. Annelise also didn't mind taking the time to learn a new song for us with her own spin on it for our first dance. I would recommend her to anyone , anytime of day. Thank you and good luck with future bookings.

A very good band who played a good range of music which was enjoyed by those at the event. They arrived on time and carried out the booking exactly as agreed. Thank you.

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.

Playing a complete mixture of music is the best way to make sure that everyone gets to hear something they really like. We don't work to a fixed setlist, but prefer to watch our audience and chop/change our music selections to suit. That way we can make sure the dance floor is always full. Our repertoire is huge and takes in all musical styles/genres such as Swing, Rock 'n' Roll, Motown & Soul, 60's, 70' Disco, 80's, Indie/Rock and of course, current chart hits too.
