Groove Collider were absolutely unbelievable at our wedding! Just fantastic, the dance floor was full all night & they are such amazing value for money!! Would book over and over again! Lovely people & a foot perfect performance. It made our night!! Thank you, Ben & Harriet

Booked for Celebration

Rami and Lisa were perfect for our garden hog roast party. It was the perfect tempo, sound and vibe. We had pop hits and classics and they even learnt some Taylor Swift (for my Missus who is a Swifty). We had multi generations at our party and everyone got into it. Also. It was the perfect volume - no police were called for irritating the neighbourhood peace :) Don't hesitate to hire them for your next party

Booked for Birthday party

I booked the band for my 50th birthday party and they didn’t disappoint. From start to finish they were fantastic. Both Jo and Malachi on lead vocals were fantastic, supported by great musicians. I would highly recommend this band if you are looking to make your night extra special.

Booked for Birthday party

Halos helped make my husbands 40th an afternoon and night to remember. Arrived with loads of time to set up, and 2 hour sets, great vibe and a lovely voice for a long summer afternoon. Couldn’t recommend them enough!

Booked for Wedding

"We really could not be happier, thank you so much for performing at our wedding in Topsham. Thoroughly recommend to anyone (I just wish we could give more than 5 stars) and look forward to listening to your CD! Absolutely lovely people and fabulous voices, suited our small venue very well. Dave made all the organisation very easy and gave us lots of choices prior to the Wedding. Thanks again!!"

"This Band is excellent, vocals and musicians exceptional. Everyone at our wedding reception commented on how fantastic the band was. They made the party the dance floor was full. When I had an opportunity to talk to the band members they were really super cool guys. If anyone needs a band for a wedding, do not hesitate to book these guys they were genuinely amazing!"
