The Del Sharron’s played at our Bike Bonanza in July.
This is the third time the band have played at one of our events and once again they were undoubtedly brilliant, they had everybody up on their feet and on the dance floor. We cannot keep track of how many people have got in touch letting us know how fantastic they were!
Thank you!"

Where on earth do I start!!
Matt, we cannot thank you and the band enough for everything you did on Saturday.
From getting there nice and early and set up, to stuffing yourselves with cake just to get us some winners. It was so kind of you to let us use your microphone and also play our ipod.
But the MUSIC!! Oh my goodness me, you were all so amazing.
I had the time of life, which I knew I would, but watching all of my friends and family dance along and enjoy themselves as you performed was even better. The feedback from our guests on your performance has been overwhelming.
Thank you for learning Not fade away for me and my dad. He rarely gets up and dances but he was loving it, I could tell!
Thank you, thank you, thank you and I hope I get to see you guys again one day!
With love from
Sara and Forbes

We were very impressed with the band, acting professionally and sounding great in an unusual situation on board our train. The guests certainly enjoyed the music, as could be seen with them all singing along and enjoying the evening. We'll certainly consider booking the band for future events!"

""BOOK THIS BAND. DO IT. DO IT NOW""
We booked the Del Sharrons to play at our wedding after seeing their poster advertising a gig at our local pub. Having not seen them we decided to travel to the other side of Leicester as it was clear they were in demand but we didn't want to book a band without seeing them first. Wow. After the first song our mind was made up & we booked them there and then.
We asked Matt if it would be possible to learn a song for our first dance - it wasn't a rock n roll song but we wanted a rock n roll twist to it to fit in with both the theme of the wedding, and the dance that we'd been learning for months. They happily obliged, even booking some studio time so we could have the song before the big day. I hadn't really considered how big a deal this was at the time but now can see how much trouble they went to to help us. The song, for anyone that's interested, was Mr Brightside & The Del Sharrons absolutely smashed it. They were awesome!"
