Booked for Celebration

Matt really looked after us for our event. The duo were a great fit with some more chilled versions of classics earlier in the night and very much 'upbeat' versions later on that got us up and dancing! Superb musicians with great vocals and a professional service!

Booked for Birthday party

What an amazing night! The band were terrific and played all the tunes we requested. The 100 plus audience loved every minute and we had so many compliments about the quality of the music and the atmosphere they generated. They were also extremely friendly, even giving me a birthday card. Would highly recommend! Jim Smith

Booked for Wedding

We have had so many compliments about the band it's unreal from guests and staff at the venue, they were brilliant, we enjoyed every song and recommend to anyone for their night. Would definitely have them play for us again (if I ever recover from organising a party)

Booked for Birthday party

When I went looking for a band for my husband's 60th Birthday party I didn't have a clue where to start. I discovered Poptop and searched through the bands available for the date. What helped me choose The Wonder Whys was their demo and the reviews they had on the site. It is always a leap in the dark when choosing a band for a one off event but I need not have worried. Contact via phone and email directly with the band prior to the party was friendly, timely and informative. I cannot praise the band highly enough, they obviously enjoy performing and their enthusiasm is infectious, their music was exactly what I wanted. Ours was a small event with a range of ages, but they got people up and dancing and the made the party complete. They have a fabulous sound, are lovely people and I cannot thank them enough for making the party perfect, would highly recommend. Husband was delighted and family and friends impressed.

Booked for Birthday party

NightPatrol are awesome!! These guys were very professional throughout, the songs were tight and precise, and the frontman interacted with the party in a great way. Their stage setup was top notch, with lighting, smoke machines, banners, you name it. We were a fairly rowdy bunch, yet these guys weren’t phased. They even let two of us, drummer and guitarist, join for a song, which was kind of them and good fun. Would definitely recommend for anything where you’re looking for some stage presence, an eclectic variety of bangers and a good laugh!

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.
