Colin Banks9 Jun 2022

Booked for Wedding

We booked run for cover for our wedding back in 2019 and due to covid we finally had our big day in June 2022. They stuck by us for all that time and we're very accommodating and professional and kept in touch throughout. We opted for the band with their DJ service in between. The Song choices were discussed with us in advance, and the band even played our first dance Live, and provided the audio to us for the videographer to get better sound quality. The guys were so friendly and down to earth and sounded amazing on the night. They really made the night stand out and we had loads of comments saying how good they were. We are very glad we decided to opt for this band instead of just a DJ as the atmosphere was fantastic. Couldn't recommend these guys highly enough. Thanks run for cover.

Booked for Anniversary

I would highly recommend these guys! They were absolutely amazing… they made sure everyone was thoroughly entertained… they were especially great with the kids. We also asked for some pretty obscure songs, and remarkably they managed to find them all. Communication before, and during the day was excellent!

Booked for Corporate Function

We were fortunate to book The Groovy Cats for our Summer Corporate Event. From start to finish ultimate professionals and really nice people. The event was a great success to which the great music, sense of humour from the band members all contributed. Would recommend and book again - wait...we have booked again for our Christmas Event - Well done guys - a real pleasure - Chad

Booked for Other Event

Laura and the gang were great. Nice and early, courteous, professional and of course...they sounded great! The moment they fired up their first song my feet were tapping and their music was well received byour mixed age range audience. Due to our venue we had limitations with our sound and this was never an issue for Pink Champagne. They bought their own mini PA and it was just right. So understanding the requirements of their client? Tick that box too. I would absolutely consider booking again for next year. Many thanks guys!

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.
