Hell Yeh we’re absolutely fantastic and gave my brother a special birthday to remember. Their playlist was awesome , they interacted brilliantly with us all and brought great energy to their performance. They’re even put their own spin on a few songs. Honestly they are absolutely class! They’re a great bunch of lads too and we are 100% going to book them again.

Rami and Lisa were perfect for our garden hog roast party. It was the perfect tempo, sound and vibe. We had pop hits and classics and they even learnt some Taylor Swift (for my Missus who is a Swifty). We had multi generations at our party and everyone got into it. Also. It was the perfect volume - no police were called for irritating the neighbourhood peace :) Don't hesitate to hire them for your next party

We were looking for a live band and PopTop made it easy to find something which was ideal for us. Easy to book and pay a deposit and the balance later. Vicious Kitten played at our 40th wedding anniversary party and were BRILLIANT! The band are just lovely and play everything from ABBA to AC/DC! Really good! Thank you for a wonderful evening. So much better than a run of the mill disco. 😉

Below the Border was the absolute perfect addition to our Christmas party. They were super easy to organise everything with and very understanding. On the night they were really slick setting up and didn’t disturb the pre party dinner at all. We are all big music fans and they were absolutely amazing. Fab song choices and as both a band and musicians were incredible. Below the Border were true professionals who I will be recommending to everyone. Thank you so much for a wonderful night, hope you have a wonderful Christmas and new year.

Glo were brilliant, really made my 50th party a memorable experience. Other people at the pub tried to gatecrash our event and were asking the manager for the band's details as they were so good. A fantastic evening. They were also really good to liaise with prior to and during the event.

Amazing! Everyone at our wedding commented on how good the music was, and the acoustic guitar in the day really set off the day. Really easy to deal with, and always kept me up to date. Thanks for making our day better!

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.
