Function Bands For Hire

"I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and the rest of the band for last night – you were amazing and everyone had a really great time. "

Joy Warner – Function, Cambridge

"The engaging young soloists Valeria Kurbatova and Luce Zurita seemed to cope admirably with the level of virtuosity and musicality demanded of them. I have to confess that the programmatic nature of the piece went from my head as soon as it started – thanks to the performers the music had its own logic. It’s pretty extraordinary that an orchestra can provide players of a calibre both willing and able to take on challenging 21st-century music and make it work so well. They gave us a delightful Jacques Ibert encore after the concerto. "

John Hendry – Function, Sevenoaks

"I would recommend Seventh Second and Get Loud. They have been professional and efficient and helped us identify what was a great band! "

Graeme Atherton – Corporate Event, Manchester

"Book them for whatever event you have got going on and you really will not be anything less than delighted. Thank you guys you made our night, it is one we will not forget and we look forward to seeing you perform again soon. "

Thomas Rennison – Function, London

"His playing was really nice, I loved it. Thanks for sorting out the booking for us Seventh Second. "

Katy Smith – Corporate Event, East Sussex

"We saw Ignition Showband on Seventh Second after a recommendation from a colleague. Having produced shows for artists such as Elton John, One Direction and alike, I would like to think that I know a good, tight band when I see one. Ignition Showband were just as impressive in real life at the event. Friendly, easy to work with and as musicians they were excellent. The two sets they did flowed seamlessly from one floor filler to the next. Choreography amongst the singers and musicians only added to the entertainment value. The end result? We had a very happy client who has already asked for the band to be at their next conference in the summer. "

James Walker – Corporate Event, Manchester

"Seventh Second and November Soul are a pleasure to deal with – prompt in communication and advising us on achieving the most fun out of the evening. Can’t recommend these guys enough and my only wish is that we could do it all again! Couldn’t recommend them enough! "

Dan Bains – Function, London

" Watching Jennifer sing and the rest of the band perform was particularly mesmerising – they have a unique charm and passion on stage and Jennifer has such a wonderfully expressive voice. "

Sandy Thomas – Corporate Event, Manchester

"Ignition Showband made our day at the Round House. Their performance had the whole venue bouncing. Thanks for all your help "

"Just a quick note to say a massive thank you to you and the band. They were brilliant and such nice guys. Everyone had an awesome time and the music was perfect for the event. Thanks for your assistance and suggesting Brilliant Corners! "

"The setlist the Collective designed and then adapted as the evening went on was great! A really professional folk band and so lovely too. "

Amanda Hoole – Corporate Event, London

"Brilliant! The Vibes Party Band had the dance floor packed the entire night – incredibly talented, so much fun and brought the energy from start to finish. Thanks for making our night so incredible!! "

Natasha Burgess – Function, Dorset

"Just a quick email to say you guys were AMAZING, you were a pleasure to work with, punctual, informative, helpful, accommodating and brilliant! Everyone and I mean everyone – even the hotel, commented on how good you were. "

Kathryn Palmer – Function, Newport

"I was first introduced to Angelika via a colleague, during the creation of, ‘Inspirations From My Imagination’, which was my final university project and my first commercial release. I did not know it at the time, but Angelika would become one of my most important collaborators during the project, who I have referred to as ‘The Unsung Star’ of the EP. Not only did she perform on 3 of the 4 tracks (all of which were in very different genres) but she put together the other string players who formed the string quartet that performed on one of the tracks, something she did entirely of her own accord and for which I still remain very grateful. Despite all my stresses with the project, I loved working with Angelika. She has been exceptionally helpful in making corrections and improvements to the violin parts which I have sent to her, for the EP, as there can be issues that make the original score unplayable in parts, which is a common problem when writing music electronically. She continues to do this with my more recent compositions. Angelika is a very talented and knowledgeable violinist who is kind, helpful and professional, as well as being incredibly patient. She can perform in various genres of music with equal measures of brilliance. It was an absolute honour for me to collaborate with her on this EP and I look forward to the next major collaboration with her. "
