Booked for Corporate Function

Had the pleasure of having this Latin band at our summer party and, seriously, they were the heartbeat of the Soiree! They had an amazing talent for reading the room and tailored the tunes perfectly, taking us all on a trip to Latin America without leaving our backyard. Super professional, too, from setup to the last note. Their song selection? Spot-on and memorable. These band is the real deal, and we're definitely bringing them back for an encore. If you want to amp up your party, they're a gem you'll want to book! Thank you Michael and the rest of you band for making our party so memorable, fun and inspiring!

Very happy with the service Apex DJ provided. John communicated well with ourselves during the build up to our joint 40th party, set up nice and early on the evening and were a hit with all our guests. Would definitely book again if we were to host a similar event. Thanks guys!

A great night and the Swinging 60s created a fantastic atmosphere. I would recommend the band to anyone organizing a Dinner Dance or a similar type of event.

Booked for Wedding

"If I could rate Abdul more than 5 stars I absolutely would. He set the tone for our wedding perfectly. He played a wide range of songs and played brilliantly, our guests thoroughly enjoyed his talents. I couldn't recommend him enough! If I have any future functions I will no doubt look to see if he is available. All the best, Aaron"

Booked for Birthday party

"Hiya Leah, I send a very big thank you to the duo Shenanigans, we all enjoyed the music and they was very polite and sang a lot of songs we knew (sort of). They also stayed an extra half an hour when i asked them to, which kept the crowd going. I would definately recommend them and would book them again. Once again a great big thank you to Shenanigans. Kind regards Bernadette"
