Fransis was amazing on the night, she has a great voice, covered a wide variety of songs and really got the crowd going. She was also very accommodating and quick to respond in the run up to our event. I would definitely recommend Fransis for your event.

Booked for Birthday party

Loved this band, they were professional, approachable, friendly & very interactive with the crowd. We only had a small party but all the guests up and dancing and thoroughly enjoyed their set. Would definitely book again and highly recommend.

Matt Sheppard8 Jun 2022

Booked for Wedding

Funk City Band were perfect for our occasion. We wanted a band who'd get people up and dancing and they did that perfectly. Craig was very helpful and responsive in the lead up to the event too.

Dan Sullivan22 Apr 2022

Booked for Anniversary

Our event was a small family party with around 50 people in attendance but we wanted to make it special as it was our first post-Covid get-together. The band definitely made it special! I was a first-time user of Poptop so was a little nervous but Chris got in touch as soon as I'd booked the band and got some info about the event. Together we went over the set-list, our options, our plan for the way the night would run, and the band even helped out with a special request to play a song that meant a lot to my parents. On the actual day, the band were on time, diligent in setting up, and professional at all times. Then when the time came, they rocked! Everybody commented on how good the band were, and having that live music gave the place such an atmosphere that everyone was up and dancing all night. The band were really friendly to our guests, even as the night wore on and a few of us were getting quite drunk! The set-list was top drawer and the band didn't miss a beat - we couldn't recommend them highly enough and they were worth every penny. Several of my guests asked for their details so I have no doubt we'll be seeing them again!

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.

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.
