Have heard the fuzzy burgers are a excellent wedding band to get your guests out dancing!
Has anyone any experience or opinions of them?
Thanks in advance

There a class band, lots of them, in white coats and banging out pretty much everything. Never heard a bad report on them.

no help at all with them, I've not seen them but have heard of them. I would have considered them to be very different. Try get along to a show if you can.

dw2016 · 04-01-2016 2:42pm

Yeah theyre different alright but good too! They are more of a wedding type band!
I like the sound of the fuzzy burgers with the banjo and accordian, its a little bit different but was just wondering do they play stuff like uptown funk, happy by pharrell williams or other pop/rock songs like that?
Thanks again for the help

TBH your best given both a call and asking them. I only know of the FB cause there Cavan based which is where my band are. I'm sure they will answer all your questions and tell you when and where you can see them live if you need too.

Just throwing in a recommendation for Phoenix. They are a 5 piece band in Cork, with a female vocalist. Have a look at their facebook page. I just had them at my 50th and they were awesome. Nothing was a problem and they rocked the joint. Very reasonable as well.

Have a look at their gig guide as they play a lot of pubs etc., so you can preview them.

Hi, we're looking for a great band that's available 24th September 2016 in Horetown House, Co. Wexford.

A good mix needed - the classics for the early part of the night for the older crowd but then preferably lots of soul, alternative and indie stuff later on.

Any recommendations or PMs welcome. Thanks.

Hi all. We have just booked our wedding for Paddy's Day, this year...... So less than 9 weeks to organise. Would be grateful for any info on a band. Reception is in Castlebellingham, Co Louth. Wedding approx 60 people, and 99% in their 30's.
Am thinking of Ceremony, and Reception singer. Then a 2 piece for after the grub.

Any pm's would be greatly appreciated!!

hidinginthebush · 17-01-2016 9:16pm

Hi lads, looking for a dj after the band. Getting married this August in Tanksardstown. Pretty much after the standard wedding dj, someone who play something for everybody and get the crowd up and dancing. PM's welcome.

Cheers!

Hi

Getting married in November in Clare (Limerick side). We have a DJ and I'm just looking for a band, our budget is on the lower side and I am aware this means less people. I'm thinking maybe a 2 piece. The main thing is that they get people up dancing.

Anyone interested please PM.

Thanks

Anyone ever hear the Madison's play or been at a wedding they played at?

Maisy512 · 04-02-2016 12:30pm

Has anyone seen The Jabronis live? Particularly at a wedding? They are from Cork and seem to play regularly in The Old Oak. We are living in Dublin and they seem to mainly have Sunday night gigs in The Old Oak so we haven't been able to see them yet.

Yes and yes, an absolutely top live band with a varied set list, I've seen them fill dance-floors a few times.

Thanks for the headsup!

Went ahead with booking Soul Purpose on the basis of their showcase and a friends recommendation (along with the boards seal of approval).

They were comparably very good value, nice guys and most importantly great tunes. Can't wait.
