Booked for Wedding

The Bees Knees certainly lived up to their name. Awesome band and genuinely lovely people. So accommodating and happy to take requests for songs. Made our wedding a joyful and lively event and got us all dancing away. Great choice of songs covering a wide range of genres and decades. Highly recommend.

Booked for Birthday party

From the moment I booked in December ,Abi from the band contacted me and from then on I knew I had made the right choice to book Soul Department,they were very understanding with Covid always in the background and then when my 60 th birthday party went ahead the band were brilliant from start to finish. I had over 300 people there and everyone commented what a group I can not thank them enough for helping to make party magical Graham from Gloucester

Booked for Wedding

We hired the Alchemists to perform at our wedding, and they were fantastic. They did an amazing set full of suitable songs for the occasion which had people up and dancing but were also relaxed enough for others to mingle and chat. We had to cancel our wedding 3 times over the lockdown and communication with Ryan was excellent over the year from when we first contacted them, till the big day. If your looking for a classy, professional and above all entertaining band these guys would be your best bet.

Booked for Celebration

We hired The Alchemists for our wedding party and they were phenomenal. They're incredibly talented and had everyone on their feet loving their lives from the first song. They were so good that people were even trying to dance during their sound checks! Their customer service was excellent from day one and the whole band are lovely, lovely people. We've had so many of our guests commenting on how amazing they were, not just in their performance, but also in their vintage, quirky music style. They were everything that we wanted for our special day and we couldn't recommend them enough. Thanks so much guys! Hannah & Jon

Booked for Birthday party

"Phoebe and Studio 33 were absolutely phenomenal! They played for 3 hours ( with 3 short breaks) and the dance floor was packed the whole of the time they were on. At times there wasn't anyone sitting down as everyone was up boogieing, including the over 70s present complete with arthritic knees and hips! They were very slick and had oodles of infectious energy and enthusiasm . Phoebe has an amazing voice and everyone in the band were clearly very talented. They were also impressively professional; arriving on time, setting up and dismantling with no fuss, and were polite, friendly and approachable at all times. They learnt a song at my request prior to the event ' We are Family' which is a family tradition of ours and we ended the party on a stomping rendition that had everyone up and dancing with grins on their faces - Priceless ! All in all I am very grateful to them for making my birthday party feel really special. I would thoroughly recommend this bunch for anyone who wants their guests to dance the night away and forget their troubles! Thankyou Phoebe and Studio 33"
