Booked for Wedding

We were absolutely blown away by Groove Collider. Every guest without exception commented on how fantastic the band were. Excellent playlist, perfect vocals, amazing sound and extremely engaging. They made a perfect atmosphere for the party after our wedding. Extremely easy to deal with and book. Effortless set up, and very good value for money. The band had everyone on the dance floor and were happy to give a few encore numbers at the end because our guests wanted more. Highly recommended for any event where you want to let your hair down and have a great night. Thanks to Mark and the band, we would definitely book again!

Booked for Corporate Function

We hosted a sales away day evening this month and were very pleased with the level of service we received. After browsing for some evening entertainment we chose Social Season to perform and it was made effortless to organise from start to finish. Rami was friendly from the outset, his assistance organising the evening was spot on and he was such a great guy; the music and their sound was fantastic, it suited the vibe of the evening and definitely made our evening more enjoyable. Social Seasons music was very well received by the rest of the company on the night with many asking for their band name and requesting Rami's contact information for future bookings. Thank you again Rami & Jess for a great evening of music, you're both so talented and we would love to see you both again for any future company events.

Booked for Birthday party

Looking for an awesome band for your party? Look no further. Giulia and The Lizards were such a great find for my birthday bash. They have a great sound - Giulia has a fantastic voice - play great tunes and the right stage presence to encourage your guests to get up and dance - which they did all evening. On top of that, they were so accommodating and just lovely people to work with! Even weeks later, people keep telling me how awesome the band was and where did I find them?! I wholeheartedly recommend them.
