Booked for Wedding

We hired Rock The Night for our wedding in May and they really brought the energy! Jake was very professional and communicative with us throughout the process making the admin feel effortless and putting us at ease from the start. The band were kind enough to learn our lesser-known first dance song and performed it brilliantly. They brought a real energy and buzz to the evening and the music and singing was fantastic. Their knowledge and flexibility was great when arranging the setlist and the DJ playlist in-between sets to suit our preferences. We had lots of compliments from our guests on how great the music and energy was which kept the dance floor busy all night. Rock The Night made the evening feel so special, I would definitely recommend them for your event! Thank you from us and all our guests.

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 Celebration

We would highly recommend this act. We booked them for a 'get together' the night before our wedding. There were about 90 of us in a pretty compromised venue, but Hannah and Charlie were very flexible and gauged the crowd well and were more than happy play requests. We personally thought that they were much better than in real life than their videos and were brilliant value for money. You will not be disappointed if you book them.

Booked for Wedding

Absolutely incredible band, do not hesitate to book! The whole booking process, song selection etc was seamless, correspondence with the band manager Rhona was stress free due to the quick responses. We were kept 'in the loop' the entire time. The first song, which they learned specially, was perfect - couldn't have gone any better! The band turned up on time, set up workout fuss and couldn't have been more accommodating. They were loved by all!! I would not hesitate to book the guys again :)
