    We had The Best Men in August,they are brilliant and very professional, had all ages dancing all night.
    Their manager handles The Jukebox Kings too,maybe even others but may be worth contacting.

    Has anybody been to a wedding recently where 'the men in black' were playing?

    My oh and I are looking at them for our wedding later in the year. Feedback seems good so far and the set list ticks the boxes but I wonder if any boardsie's have first hand experience?

    Havent seen them in a couple of years, but they're really really good at what they do. If you like their setlist, you wont have any problem if you book them. Theyre doing a couple of showcases, pop along to them.

    Hey guys, quick question. Has anyone ever seen or had The Swing Cats at a wedding? I've just started looking for bands for my 2016 wedding, and these guys are standing out the most.

    Hey guys, looking at Social Sway for a wedding in 2016. Their YouTube video looks good but would love to hear from people who seen them live? Organising it from Oz so can't go check them out for myself!

    Any comments appreciated.

    Thanks

    Went to see them last month and was turned off them straight away, played alot of music along the lines of ABBA, cliff Richard, 60s johnny cash, stuff guests of an older age would enjoy but not my cup of tea!!

    Not heard either but sounds like you might like Soul Purpose and the Goods too. Both female fronted with lots of motown/soul in their repertoires.

    Hi! I play in Rubix, we are a 4 piece outfit who specialise in weddings. We're based in the North-East but travel around the country, and have many years experience in the wedding entertainment industry. For us, if your guests are not up dancing with smiles on their faces, we are not succeeding at our job. Thankfully though, a packed dance floor is a common sight from the stage for us.

    We play a range of hits from the modern to the classics, taking in Pop/Country/Rock/Dance/Disco/Waltz, starting off with your own selected 'First Dance', all played fully live with precision and passion. Our two men at the front are very good with crowd interaction, and each wedding we play opens up another 3-5 bookings for us such is the reaction from the guests. Also, we are the same 4 members all of the time. The band you book is the band you get.

    But that is all talk, hopefully I can back it up with our promo video...



    If our band is of interest to you for your big day, feel free to contact us by PM here on Boards, or via the email address or phone number below. Our price may vary depending on a few different factors (distance, start time, set duration etc.) but as a 4 piece outfit, even at our top price, we are very reasonably priced.

    We look forward to hearing from you and working with you to make sure that the live music is 100% on point for your most specialist of occasions.

    Thank you for your attention.

    Hi,

    Can anyone recommend a 2/3 three piece band for a wedding in the Meath area?

    Thanks in advance


  • Registered Users Posts: 78 ✭✭chuckster


    Hi Folks,

    Looking for recommendations for amazing wedding bands in the Mayo (or will travel to Mayo) area.

    It's for June 16 - have looked at a few so far but nothing has grabbed my attention. It would be great to have a good mix (more upbeat classics and modern hits - less Come on Eileen/I'm in the mood for dancing).

    I know the older guests will have to be catered for but there must be a band that has a good balance out there.

    Any suggestions at all are welcome,

    thanks very much :-)

    La Bamba

    Well established as a great wedding band for all age-groups.

    Check them out!

    Interested in getting a mixed but female fronted group for my wedding next year. Saw a particular Dublin band a year or so ago in the Stillorgan Orchard, a blonde girl leading with a dark haired girl and two guys backing her up, they were brilliant and lively and had the pub hopping on the night!

    Anyone got any idea of who the above might be or know of a similar sort of band? Any feedback much appreciated, thanks!

    We are looking for a DJ who can play for 4 hours+ in Cork City on 12th December.

    The set list would be classic hits from the 80's 90's.


    Any recommendations?
