Reviews of The Fireflies - Sussex Party Band

N. P.

From the day we first booked Audio Riot Ian kept in contact with us throughout the months leading up to our big day. The performance they put on at our wedding was absolutely amazing, guests of all ages were up dancing. Great selection of songs. One of the highlights for us was that the band took the time to learn our first dance. We as a couple will never forget that! Having Audio Riot helped complete our amazing day. When all your guests ask how we chose the band and the man running our photo booth comes and asks saying “I’ve been to a lot of weddings and this is one of the best bands I have ever heard”, Just confirms what a success they were. We recommend to all and will definitely use them again for family celebrations. Thank you Audio Riot .

So what can I say that hasn't already been said? The Fireflies lived upto & exceeded expectations. From making first contact with Ian and discussing plans & requirements, to packing away after my husband Toms 70th birthday celebration in our garden, the band were personable, friendly & professional. The music they played or included on the playlist was as requested, and was perfect for all guests to enjoy. Ian always checked that I was happy with how things were and was very reassuring, especially when he first arrived and could see how stressed I was, so that I was finally able to enjoy the party too. So many of our guests asked how I found the band, and comments such as "they're amazing", "superb band", "they're great, aren't they" & from the birthday boy himself "wow" are further testaments as to why you should seriously consider them for your event. Even uninvited neighbours, days later, said they enjoyed the music. Thank you Ian, Sam, James & Greg - you made our party memorable. We're still talking about it!

Booked Audio Riot for my 70th birthday party. They are the perfect party band probably for any occasion. Extremely versatile and accommodating.Ian provided excellent communications throughout the booking procedure and would definitely recommend them. They really got everyone up dancing and made my evening extra special.

I had the fireflies playing at my mini-festival birthday! I cannot thank them enough for such a great night! They had the crowd going for the full set, interacted with everyone! We love you guys and we will have you back for the next event!!

We hired the fireflies for our festival style wedding on 11 june 2022. We could not have been happier from start to finish. Ian got in touch and introduced himself and discussed everything we needed to know. They were great at communicating with us and going through our music choices. On the day they kept us updated with their arrival time. The live music was so incredible, it was really amazing that the whole band got involved with our guests changing the odd word in a song and having a dance with us all. It really made our wedding having such a great live band, all of our guests commented brilliant they were too. We would definitely recommend. Thank you so much. Fran and James

Where do I start.. words cannot and will never be able to explain how great these guys truly are. I came across them online whilst searching for a band for our wedding and immediately knew I had to have them on the day! Initially, I knew there was a slight logistical issue as we were getting married in Jersey! but Ian was immediately up for the challenge to make sure they played for us on our special day. From start to finish, ferries to accommodation, he was amazing and so attentive making sure everything was perfect. We are so blessed to have met you all and to have shared our special day with you. We haven’t spoken to one wedding guest that didn’t mention how amazing the band were. Genuinely think you guys were the highlight of the day rather than the ceremony 🤣 We had so much fun and laughter the whole evening. Couldn’t have wished or dreamed for better entertainment. You made our day, you really did. We will remember it forever. Lots of love Grace & Cam x

The Fireflies played at our wedding and we loved every moment of it. They are so accommodating, friendly and amazing at what they do. Our day was so special already but having them there to play in the evening topped it off. Ian and the band got everyone involved; he was dancing with us; getting to know everyone’s names which was so lovely and personal. Everyone that came to our wedding, hasn’t stopped talking about The Fireflies! And it was worth every penny. The communication between them and us near the wedding, made us feel less anxious and more excited. They’re so easy to talk to and liaise with. Thank you so much again!

Booked this lovely band for our 25th wedding anniversary. The Fireflies had great communication from start to finish, they listened to our wishes and suggestions and did a great job entertaining our guests. Everybody was up dancing and singing with them, they were very welcoming and always checked in to whether we were happy and if we had any other requests. Such a fun band they were great would really recommend. From Stephanie and Kevin Butler.

S. G.

The Fireflies recently played at our fundraiser ball with over 400 in attendance. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the entertainment. Ian (manager and singer) was so communicative before, during and after. Nothing was too much trouble and highly professional in providing requirements and liaising on timings, playlists etc. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great band. Just as long as they don’t get too booked up and are available to play at our next fundraiser! Thanks again Fireflies, you were awesome!

E. M.

Amazing!! They absolutely rocked our wedding, got everyone up at dancing… yep even those people 😂 They also were really friendly and enjoyed a good chin wag after and a beer. It just felt like they belonged. Ian was also fantastic the whole way through the lead up and made sure everything went swimmingly. 1000% recommend. You will not be disappointed!!

S. l.

Our wedding was the most perfect day and these guys made it more perfect than I could have imagined .Their energy is infectious and every guest commented on how brilliant they were. The attention to detail was second to none from singing me down the isle. Live music during drinks reception and the. Full DJ and live music throughout the evening. This will certainly be a day that will be remembered. Thank you so much

J. B.

Just wow!!! What a great band. From the very first message right through to them arriving & setting-up the lads were just amazing. Cannot thank them enough to help me celebrate my 50th birthday with such a fabulous live gig. All the songs I loved, even an extra Dolly song for my partner 🥰 these lads will not let you down. Amazing xxx

We booked Audio Riot for my husband's 40th Birthday party. Everything was easy from booking the band and arranging all details. They band arrived in good time to set up their 'band castle' gazebo and all the equipment in our garden which looked really impressive with all the lights to create a great party atmosphere. The song list was spot-on to cater for the mixed age group and they were happy to take requests. Everyone was very complimentary of the band they had everybody up dancing! It will definitely be a party to remember! Highly recommended!!

S. J.

The Fireflies absolutely made our work party! Such a talented group, really got the party going and put on an incredible show that was very personal and fun! They also provided amazing service prior to the event, quick to respond to messages and were extremely accommodating. Would definitely recommend! Thanks so much guys! Xxx

S. O.

The Fireflies Band is one of the best bands out of Brighton! Amazing stage set up and presence. Ian was brilliant with communication and I would highly recommend this band. They made my wife's surprise birthday party special. Thank you all.

K. B.

We were so pleased that we came across The Fireflies for my mums 60th party. They were incredible! Very engaging and got everyone up and dancing, nothing but smiles and singing throughout the audience! Highly recommend!

L. G.

I hired The Fireflies to play at my 40th birthday party and they were absolutely incredible! Ian had everyone up on their feet dancing and getting involved and they absolutely made my party! I would highly recommend The Fireflies for your special event, an amazing 5* band!

G. H.

Thank you so much to Ian and the band for an absolutely amazing night last night for my daughter’s wedding! I had so many people asking the name of the band and saying how great they were! You really made it a special evening and got people up on the floor, enjoying themselves! Thanks again, and I’ll be recommending you to anyone looking for a party band.

A. R.

We had Dance floor Hustle at our golf club event last night. Ian and the boys all smashed it! Very interactive with the crowd and got everyone up dancing from minute 1. Amazing night boys thank you. Highly recommend these boys.

M. L.

Wow, wow, wow!!!. It was our 25th Wedding Anniversary party and the band absolutely made our evening. The band played music that got people up dancing and kept them on the dancefloor. Ian and the guys interacted with guests through the evening and made it extra special. Ian was top notch with the organising and I felt super confident before our event started. Friends were blown away by the band and I would recommend them to everyone!. Thanks once again guys, you were amazing!

M. W.

What can I say from start to finish Ian has been informative and all our requests met. It was our 40th wedding anniversary party last night and The Fireflies even learnt the song that was number one the day we married. Well done The Fireflies all my family and friends loved you!!!🥰

W. D.

I honestly can't recommend these guys enough, support helpful and supportive in the lead up to everything and then when they actually started playing, amazing! Interacted with all of our guests and absolutely smashed it. The band were amazing, I promise you, you will love having these guys as part of your big day just like we did.

A. f.

I booked the fireflies for mine and my partners wedding and to say the band smashed it is an understatement, had so much fun. The band sounded amazing and got people on there feet, if your looking to book a band for your wedding or any other party I would 100% recommend these guys you won't regret it they know just how to take your special day to the next level. I couldn't take you guys enough for make our day that bit more memorable here's to a successful future. Thank you

We booked Audio Riot for our Wedding Reception, we love our live music so it was a risk for us to book a band we hadn’t seen before in person, however it definitely paid off! They were amazing!!! All of our guests commented on what a great band they were, a really good mix of songs to get the party going, but they listened to our preferences and were really accommodating too. They learnt our first dance song and played it so beautifully, they also interacted with the crowd brilliantly too, just awesome! Couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

M. C.

We booked Audio Riot last minute for our wedding after our band had to pull out due to covid. Feel like it was meant to be as we are so glad that we had these guys. The communication from Ian right from the beginning, before the day and then through the day was great. That aside, they are definitely a party band which is what we wanted. Ian is definitely a performer - we had a crowd that liked to be up dancing however he was amazing at getting everyone going.

E. L.

Had the honor of seeing these guys recently at a wedding I was attending, they were awesome. The lead singer was a gentleman and nothing but a pro, quick witted and crowd engaging. As for the rest of the band the lead guitar, bass and drums were again an exceptional level. The range of music they played pretty much broke the mould covering all genres from pop to RnB all the way over to rock and soul. nearly covering every decades best tunes. Had a chat to singer and again I must say a very personable guy always wearing a smile and full of good energy. I'd have absolutely no problem highly recommending these guys to anyone thinking of booking them for any type of event, they filled the dancefloor with every song, had people singing their hearts out and made the evening extra special for all. Fantastic 😊

P. R.

Absolutely fantastic band who can definitely get a party going. Great range of tunes and very low maintenance, even helped out another singer on the night whose speakers failed. Lighting was awesome too!

Y. C.

What a fabulous night Ian & the rest of Audio Riot gave us! The perfect choice for our annual Dinner & Dance. Ian is such a fantastic front man, both leading up-to our event and then on the night; Just brilliant & such a tonic for us all to let our hair down & boogie! Thank you Ian, which seems inadequate to describe the amazing evening you created for us, but thank you 🤗 x

C. L.

Phenomenal!! From start to finish you had the crowd going!! Played a wide variety of music and boy did you please everyone! Everyone was up dancing and had the best time. Everyone is still talking about you. Will defo book again!!

D. B.

Ian and his band were brilliant last night at our School Summer Party. The 4 piece band were engaging and had everyone on the dancefloor. Would def book again. Thanks

S. K.

The guys were booked for a works Christmas meal and party. They were amazing, such a good night, everyone was up and dancing. They are fantastic such a good vibe and professional. I wouldn’t hesitate to re book them as you are guaranteed a brilliant night. Hope to see them at a gig soon.

P. L.

These guys were amazing, made me feel centre of attention all night long. Ian really made my night special, his high energy, his interaction with the audience, they were an amazing group of fellas. I highly recommend them and will be booking them again!

j. m.

I booked this band for my birthday party and so glad I did they are brilliant. Ian communicated with me at regular intervals regarding my booking and check if I wanted to change or add anything. He emailed all the documentation I needed regarding, electrical safety certification, contract so I could pass on to venue. They are a very friendly bunch, nothing too much trouble and checked in with me throughout the evening. They are very talented musicians are learnt the song I requested and did it proud. They also Dj inbetween the band sets and the price was very reasonable. Very happy with this band, you won't be disappointed.

K. A.

I recently booked Audio Riot for a work function and they were absolutely fantastic. Ian was brilliant from the moment we spoke which made organising the event less stressful, knowing that any changes I had he would try his best to accommodate. The guys are super talented and had everyone up and dancing. So much energy from them all which really made the event. Thank you all so much. Can’t wait for the next one!

m. b.

What an absolutely awesome band - the talk of the night! Great communication prior to arrival, punctual and covid safe. Their performance injected loads of energy and had the dance floor packed! Great supporting equipment and lights turned our venue into a top party !

E. O.

Audio Riot played at my parents anniversary and birthday celebration. They were fantastic and we would definitely recommend them. They were so friendly, they really engaged with the guests and put on a fabulous show. So many of our guests headed to the dance floor whilst the band were playing. We had a brilliant time and we are really glad that we chose them for our special occasion.

We waited a few days to write this review on account of all of the clearing up we’ve done since our Wedding party. This is relevant because it means I am not writing this on a high - it’s objectively true... Audio Riot have been literally phenomenal from day ONE of enquiry. Their communication has been faster than anyone I think we’ve ever worked with. They put solicitors, practitioners, contractors and even accountants to shame in terms of their promptness and professionalism. I cannot stress this enough. We were left with no questions, their user friendly communication and questionnaires answered questions we didn’t even realise we had yet. Their communication between booking to event date was regular and friendly. This took any stress we could have had in planning a band away - meaning we could concentrate on everything else to plan. On planning: our wedding party itself was amazing. The band - namely; Ian - coordinated everything for us! Cutting of the cake / first dance / blessing - everything. It was like having a showbiz, extremely talented musician also acting as an on the night events planner! The show set up was WAY above what we expected. The lights turned our hall into a legitimate show - and it seemed like they managed to do this without any interruption all the while playing some great music to keep our guests entertained. Oh my goodness - they were PHENOMENAL on stage. They had the people dancing ALL evening. I don’t think I’ve seen 3 encores at a wedding 😂 - but it was at least 3 plus DJ sets that only inspired more dancing and singing! The only regret is that we don’t have another event lined up that we can invite them to play. If anyone is looking for an extremely good band, excellent performance, fantastic taste in music, the friendliest of people and next level professionalism - these are your team. Thank you Audio Riot for putting the magic into our special day. Honestly couldn’t have asked or hoped for more. With thanks and love, Louis and Stacey Chavannes

Audio Riot played for the whole afternoon and evening at my husband’s 40th birthday mini festival in May. We were so impressed!! From booking through to leaving, a phenomenal service - really nice guys, super efficient booking and planning, and great music. They managed to get a group of 40 year old men dancing at 4pm which says a lot! Particularly since it was such a long day for them, and in the sun, they really couldn’t have done a better job and we were so happy we booked them. Highly recommended!

L. C.

Cannot recommend these amazing lads enough! The enthusiasm and joy they brought from start to finish was a blessing to be around!! So so fun and friendly but also so professional and talented! Thank you The Fireflies x

S. M.

Couldn’t recommend them enough and wouldn’t hesitate in booking them again. Thanks guys!
