Booked for Birthday party

The Lah di Dahs were exceptional. Professional, great song choices, beautiful harmonies, great outfits and got us all emotional with White Cliffs of Dover which was an incredible rendition and sung with love. We could not have picked a more fitting tribute to my Mums 90th Birthday and nothing disappointed. Great girls, professionally sound checked and an ambience that shouted 1940s. Brilliant!

Mark Jones29 Jul 2021

Booked for Wedding

We hired the Alchemists to perform at our wedding, and they were fantastic. They did an amazing set full of suitable songs for the occasion which had people up and dancing but were also relaxed enough for others to mingle and chat. We had to cancel our wedding 3 times over the lockdown and communication with Ryan was excellent over the year from when we first contacted them, till the big day. If your looking for a classy, professional and above all entertaining band these guys would be your best bet.

Booked for Birthday party

You have a class act in your stable. She was everything I asked for and much more. she did us proud at my special birthday party. Her voice is amazing. Everyone loved her performance.

Booked for Wedding

Neil and Mark were absolutely brilliant, we could not rate them anymore. They have been more than accommodating, from learning a song for our first dance (which they performed better than we could have hoped) to being really flexible and ready to go for us in an instant. 11/10 would recommend for anyone, and will definitely keep their details for future parties.

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.
