Booked for Other Event

We recently booked Kaleidoscope for our event and we can not fault them, communication throughout the booking process was fast and reliable, they arrived early with all the correct kit and equipment ready to go at the set time, they adapted their set as the night went on perfectly getting the crowd going, and overall were a very good band doing some great covers. Louise and team thank you.

Kommy was absolutely fantastic, they are super responsive and go out of their way to help with any request or issue you may have. Everyone at the party loved them too, we had a brilliant time and will definitely look to hire again.

Booked for Birthday party

What an amazing night! The band were terrific and played all the tunes we requested. The 100 plus audience loved every minute and we had so many compliments about the quality of the music and the atmosphere they generated. They were also extremely friendly, even giving me a birthday card. Would highly recommend! Jim Smith

Booked for Wedding

"Stop your search and book these guys up. They are amazing, I have never seen a more packed dance floor than at our wedding. My wife and I spent an eternity hunting for a wedding band and just couldn't find one that we liked at a price we wanted to pay. Then we stumble across Rhythm of the Night and loved them, and the cost was very reasonable. Craig and Charlotte were very responsive and flexible, answering all our queries. They provided a set list and we let them know which ones we preferred and which we didn't like. On the day, every song was a cracker and they sounded even better than they do in their recordings. Everyone commented on how great they were. Of the 100 guests, there were never more than 10 people sat down, even the grandparents and aunts who never dance were jumping about enjoying themselves. These guys really are amazing. Thank you for helping us have the most amazing, memorable wedding! Liam and Siobhan"
