Lauren Midgley25 Jul 2021

Booked for Hen party

Joey performed at a hen weekend for us in July 2021. He was super professional, very responsive to messages, and was flexible with what songs/vibe we wanted. He came early to set up, had all his equipment with him, and performed a 2 hour set on one of the hottest days of the year! Joey is a really talented performer - everyone that attended the hen do was really impressed by his performance and people are still talking about him and how good he was weeks later. I would highly recommend booking Joey for your event.

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.

• 4 bookings

Playing a complete mixture of music is the best way to make sure that everyone gets to hear something they really like. We don't work to a fixed setlist, but prefer to watch our audience and chop/change our music selections to suit. That way we can make sure the dance floor is always full. Our repertoire is huge and takes in all musical styles/genres such as Swing, Rock 'n' Roll, Motown & Soul, 60's, 70' Disco, 80's, Indie/Rock and of course, current chart hits too.
