Booked for Birthday party

Thank you so much what a super band, they really made my party by playing before hand while our guests had drinks and for the dance in the fabulous barn at The Chequers in Heaverham near Sevenoaks. All guests danced our socks off, great fun! We thoroughly recommend A2 Band for all ages.

Booked for Wedding

I can’t thank Debby and the band enough as they had everyone up dancing and we all had such a wonderful time. I highly recommend and guarantee they will make your party the most memorable event. Thanks again you were absolutely amazing x

Booked for Private party

The Black Velvet Band trio were extremely talented musicians who delivered a good range of Irish tunes to a very high standard, although surprisingly not the song "The Black Velvet Band"! Overall they provided a great nights entertainment, I think there could have been a little more interaction with the audience, but I would recommend them to anyone wanting to hold an Irish themed night. Unfortunately we were not allowed dancing due to restrictions, once these are lifted the night would be even better.

Booked for Birthday party

I booked Phil and the Brewery Band to play at my 50th birthday party in Gloucester 1st Feb 2020. There were so many different bands to choose from, but I know now I definitely picked the right band to entertain me and my guests. Communication between myself and Phil before my party was good and when I met Phil and the band on the night all members were friendly and had smiles. Dances where easy to follow with clear instruction from Phil, and the music was lively. Everyone enjoyed the night and the Brewery band made it extra special. A birthday that I will never forget. Thank you :-)

Booked for Birthday party

"The band were excellent and our guests had a great time. The band were warm and friendly and explained the steps really well, which was a massive help seeing as though most of the guests had never been to a ceilidh before. I would happily recommend them."
