Arranging our band through freak music was an absolute delight. The website was easy to use and provided loads of information about the bands. The communication from freak music was faultless, even when I accidentally deleted all the emails, they responded quickly to forward all emails to me. All staff were friendly and professional. Booking the band was supremely easy which was great, my wife trusted me to sort the music so I'm glad the process was easy. The band themselves were awesome, if I could rate them above 5 stars I would. Pat was very easy to communicate with, they offered to learn songs we liked and provided a massive list of songs for us to choose from. They arrived on time and allowed us to enjoy time with our guests while they set up. They were so patient with my young neice who wanted to try the drums and banjo, letting her play both, above and beyond what I would expect from a band. They played 3 x 45 minute sets of incredible music, our guest were dancing from the first to the last. The guys are so talented! I don't think I've ever heard a wedding group shout for an encore before, hearing people chant '1 more song' was awesome, particularly when the guys obliged and finished our wedding on a real high. Massive thanks to freak music and banjo lounge 4 for helping make our day such an amazing one :)

The Whole Caboodle - What a band! The band arrived on time, set up quickly and started at the time agreed. The music was excellent with the content and sound levels just right. The calling for the dances was outstanding. It was carried out in a friendly, helpful and understanding manner which entertained and amused us all. The members of the band were without exception friendly and approachable. This band will be our first choice for our next ceilidh.

David and Freya are AMAZING! We seriously can not recommend them highly enough - we booked them through Freak Music for our wedding on 3.9.16; it absolutely poured with rain during our ceremony (yes outdoor ceremony..) at which they were playing us down the aisle, but they were so completely un-phased at the last minute dash for cover, playing all the songs we requested. In the evening, they returned to play for our after-party in a high top tipi - and had every single one of our guests dancing, smiling and having a brilliant time! The rain had caused some electrical difficulties, but again, they took to it like absolute pros until the issue was sorted. They are just so talented and their songs went down a storm, with our guests even asking for a on core (which they kindly did!). They played a mix of up-beat folksy / 50s rock songs, every single one of which was a massive crowd pleaser. Everyone has been commenting on how amazing they were and how much fun they had! 'Best wedding band ever' was a common review... Book them, book them NOW!

We booked Emiliyah And The Mightyz All Stars reggae band for our wedding last month and would highly recommend booking your entertainment through Freak Music. Super easy to book online and they were really helpful in finding out all the little details for us, as well as giving us security with our booking. As for the band, what can I say. We thoroughly enjoyed having them as part of our special day and reggae-ing up some of our favourite songs! They were also very easy to have direct contact with and were very prompt with setting up etc. Thank you again, Amie and Rohan 😀

We hired SUPERfreak via Freakmusic for our wedding. It was the best decision we made. Freakmusic made it really easy to negotiate a contract and all that legal stuff was made really easy. Music has always been important to us and I come from a strong musical background so it just wouldn't have done if the band weren't up to scratch. I needn't have worried. The musicians are outstanding. I'd imagine even their heartbeats are funky. At our event James, the frontman was wholeheartedly energetic and did a superb job, even after a full week of gigging. he got the crowd up dancing and they stayed there all night. Incidentally, James is the spokesperson for the group. We had a few conversations and exchanged emails beforehand to plan the music and he was forever approachable and understanding about it all. Even a week after the wedding people were commenting about how good the band were. Awesome. Job done.

B. m.

Garth Brooks was amazing! We had a works do with an American theme and were looking for some music that would fit the bill! Well, Garth Brooks band went down a storm with everyone joining in, dancing and singing. We had such an awesome evening, the band were polite, joined in with us during breaks and really added to the atmosphere of the evening! Thanks, we would highly recommend them!

S. L.

Hired The Amazing Blues Brothers via Freak Music for our wedding reception.THESE GUYS ROCKED!!! Totally amazing!! Raised the roof from the first song and really got the crowd involved, sounded awsome, cant thank them enought. Booking process was straight forward simple and very informative. When we asked for qoutes freak came back and said the 2 of the acts we asked about was actually the same guys and they could do a bit of both. Brilliant service will be booking again. Wortley hall's wedding coordinator even asked where we found them said they was one of the best they'd seen. Even a month later people are still telling me how good the band was! Put a rating on that! Thanks guys

Alex Graham and the Concords played at my daughter's wedding on Sunday at the Inn at Whitewell. They were brilliant! So talented. We love rock and roll and the band certainly had the party rocking and rolling. Pity we have no more children to get married as you have got to have this band more than once.

N. M.

We booked our wedding band, Northern Star, through Freak Music and it couldn't really have been much easier. We selected the band, paid the fee by bank transfer, the band turned up, the band were fantastic a great night was had by all. No hesitation recommending Freak Music and Northern Star.

D. H.

The Soundcasters were absolutely brilliant! They had every single one of the wedding party up and dancing - including my 92 year old Grandad! Extremely accomplished musicians, that played a great range of songs and were a pleasure to deal with. Would definitely recommend.

J. T.

We booked the Balkan Bandits for our wedding and they were fabulous!!! We did not want a boring covers band and the Balkan Bandits did not disappoint. Such good fun & full of energy. Our guests were a bit timid at first but they warmed to the music and everyone said how much fun they had.

S. R.

We booked our wedding music through Freak Music. They were very helpful and reasonably priced. We booked a pianist Catherine Ward. She was absolutely amazing and really made our wedding day special. Catherine adjusted her play list to music we like. Everyone enjoyed her music and we would use Freak Music and Catherine again in the future. Thank you very much.

Wedding booking: 15/10/16. The Dazzlettes duo were highly professional, very easy going and were superb singers. They maintained the atmosphere of our wedding - all of our guests were very impressed. We would definitely recommend them to others!

L. B.

I booked The Ugly Bug Ragtime Band trio to play for a garden party through Freak Music. This was a first time experience for me as I had had no prior recommendation, so it was a bit of a risk but turned out splendidly. Freak Music were very efficient and the trio lived up to expectations and turned what would have been just a party into a memorable event!

A. D.

I hired Rapido Mariachi as a surprise for my husband when arriving to our drinks reception at our wedding as a tribute to us getting engaged in Mexico. It was the most incredible part of the day & I couldn't be happier with their performance. The music was fantastic & all our guests loved how fun the band were walking amongst the crowd. I would highly recommend Rapido Mariachi to anyone wanting something a little more different & fun to liven up a party!

D. M.

We recently booked Il Destino for our wedding via Freak Music. The communication was excellent throughout but most importantly the boys were the highlight of our day. They completely understood the audience and brought the house down!! Highly recommended. 5 stars *

k. m.

I feel incredibly lucky to have had Pauline playing at our wedding. I knew her music would be a lovely touch but she was amazing, my only regret is that I couldn't spend more time during the cocktail hour to fully enjoy her playing the clarsach and singing. Pauline was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. We discussed the ceremony music I had in mind, and Pauline fully accomdated this and even brought a flute to ensure one of my choices sounded the best it could. I felt this was a lovely touch and appreciated it so much. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Pauline as she would be a credit to any function. thank you so much Pauline!

C. S.

Freak music provide an excellent and helpful service. The band "Ghost" were amazing and really made the wedding night. Playing songs to suit the audience and a small ceilidh section. If your organising a wedding band or function- would highly recommend Freak Music as an agency and "Ghost" as a band. Neil and Catriona

K. P.

We booked Sam Burkey to play at our wedding on 22/12/16. The booking was straight forward, and Sam was superb. He listened to exactly what we wanted and played a lovely medley of modern and Christmassy songs. His voice and playing were fantastic and he was very polite and easy to talk to. Would highly recommend.

R. Q.

A fantastic agency. I used Freak Music for my wedding at Fingask Castle in May 2016 and absolutely love their service. The website is full of quality acts, searching for the type of music you need is easy, and there is a thorough description of the act and sample music to listen to. You can save acts that you like, get detailed quotes, and communication with Freak music is brilliant. The payment and contract signing process is very efficient and easy. Chloe and Jeremy were excellent throughout and the acts that we purchased, Dana Dixon Band and Dajo Jazz were phenomenal. I would use Freak Music EVERY time if I needed to organise music again.

C. L.

John Davidson, guitarist, was absolutely perfect! So professional and friendly. Extremely talented and played just the right kind of music! Even learned two new songs for us. Delighted from start to finish and would hire John again in an instant! So great at keeping in touch throughout and just helpful and kind, with no issues whatsoever. Definitely a wonderful guitarist! Outstanding!!"

A. D.

I found freek music to be really professional and helpful. They were patience with me in finding the correct band for our wedding party. We decided on the playoff band who were great for our party. They were really friendly and got the crowd dancing ! Would really recommend freek music and the band to others.

A. G.

We have just used Diane Shaw at our Butterfly Ball and we're completely blown away! Totally amazing, they had the dance floor full from beginning to end end. Not only was the sound fantastic but Diane and her band were fantastic and lovely people. It takes a big act to entertain 500 people but to Diane it seem no effort at all. A brilliant experience would highly recommend and Freak Music were great too, that great I've already booked for next year!

J. C.

We booked the band 'Good company' via Freak music for our wedding reception and they couldn't have been better! Freak music coordinated payment and facilitated everything, making it an incredibly stress free booking! Perfect for the particularly busy, stressful time usually affiliated with arranging a wedding!

E. M.

Finding and booking a band was easy with Freak Music. Lots of choice in a well set up website. The band we booked for our Work Xmas Party were Special Guests who put on a great show, had the whole place jumping, a great night.

R. F.

We hired our wedding band, Gumbo La La, through Freak Music and it couldn't have gone smoother. They were brilliant to deal with, and the band were incredible on the night. Hugely recommended all round.

J. C.

I booked Soupy Twist for my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary. The process was simple and easy and the band were great. Having live music really made the event special and I am sure it will resonate in the memory of those whom were there.

C. C.

I can whole-heartedly recommend Vintage Jukebox who I booked through Freak Music. They played for my 40th Birthday Midsummer Ball and were amazing. Fantastic team, professional throughout, amazing sound and the dance floor was jumping. Claire

E. P.

Great company, very efficient and a great platform to explore bands for our wedding. Jonas and Harbottle were absolutely stunning and really set the mood for our wedding perfectly. .cannot rate them or freak music high enough

J. D.

Andy and the band played at our Cardiff Castle wedding. They were great before the day in helping me choose a set to play, and were fantastic on the night. We were both really pleased with them and would recommend them to others.

S. H.

After booking The Trip for our annual golf club dinner everyone at Penn GC were extremely happy with them, everything from them being there in plenty of time to set up causing us no trouble in setting up the room for the evening, to them all being very friendly with nothing to much trouble to help us with the use of their microphones. Then when they started their show it was exactly what we required with music from all era's and genres and their performance was first class. Highly recommended .

However all our fears disappeared on the night , What a fantastic band every single person was on the dance floor .A night we will never forget Peter & Diane

S. W.

Freak Music were a very friendly and efficient group to deal with and helped us satisfactorily sort out musicians for our daughter's wedding. Would recommend as a reliable and trustworthy resource..

J. A.

We found Good Company the band through Freak Music, it was a simple and easy process and they were upfront about costs and answered all our questions in a timely manner. For Good Company we left the following review: "Just to say thanks so much for Saturday. We thought you guys were fantastic and really got the room bouncing! So good in fact friends of ours asked if we minded if they could use you at their wedding :) which is testament to how good you were. The first dance was spot on and really classy, so thanks from both of us for that. The room was rocking when you played and think the "one more song" chants at the end showed how brilliant you were. Thanks for making it such a special day for both of us. If you require us to give you a review anywhere, let us know. We would be more than happy to do so as we thoroughly enjoyed your music. Can you please make sure the other band members see this as well? Want to say thanks to you all!"

A. R.

Can't recommend the Ragtime Dolls enough, they were fantastic and everyone was charmed by them. If it wasn't a bit weird I'd book them just to come and sing at the house! Thanks to Freak Music for the recommendation and ease of booking. Al

A. S.

A huge thank you to Diamond Sky for playing at our wedding dance.....they were absolutely fantastic the dance floor was full all night. Our friends and family all had a great time we really can't recommend them enough. Thank you once again. Andy and Becca

On behalf of the Horizon Hotel Ayr I would like to thank Paul Thorpe as Elvis for an outstanding Tribute Night in October for us. The night was absolutely fantastic with great reviews given to us. Everyone had a ball and I will not hesitate in getting Paul back again. If your looking for a great night I recommend you book this professional gentleman fast. Was a pleasure Paul See you again soon. Kind Regards Tracey General Manager

L. S.

We booked John for a friend's hen night. He was fantastic. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a bit of Elvis in their life. He was a total professional and nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely book him again.

Austin City Swing Band recently played for our corporate event. They were fantastic and managed to get a lot of people up on the dance floor! Many commented on how good they were and they made the night very special.

Double vision were an excellent band. My mum and I had a joint 30th and 60th birthday party and they had everyone on the dance floor dancing! Thank you so much, you made the party! I would definitely recommend.

A. B. (.

I had booked Kidd Eta Galahad for my parents suprise 50th anniversary. Correspondence was excellent between us. And on the night he was really fantastic easy to speak with and he was really interactive not only with parents but other guests. All in all he is a rwally good elvis act. Everything from the jumps suits to his songs. I'd definitely book him again. Please give him a try for your next venue. You won't be disappointed believe you me

C. B.

We had The Dazzlettes for my dads 60th birthday party. They were the highlight of the night, there voices were amazing and everybody was raving about them all night. They got people up dancing and just made the night. I would certainly use them again and recommend. Thank you very much for everything

G. C.

Absolutely brilliant! Thank you Lorna, you were amazing! I booked a singing waitress, but I got a wonderful explosion of entertainment, energy, humour and fun - oh and what a fantastic voice. I would recommend Lorna without a moment's hesitation. 10/10!!

B. F.

I was delighted with the quartet. Their repertoire is exquisite and they went the extra mile to play our favourite song and find a classical version of it. We really loved it and our guests as well.

A. G.

I booked this band to perform for our New years Eve celebration at Heywood Civic Centre. They arrived on time, got on with their own set up and played at the times we had allocated. Black and Gold were well dressed and looked the part for a NYE celebration. I was very impressed with the sound quality and energy of the band on stage. By the end of the first performance they had our audience on their feet and dancing the night away and by the second performance the crowd were really in to it. The set list was perfect - a mixture of classic soul and Motown and a few modern hits which the crowd seemed to appreciate. The band themselves are lovely people and were all very polite. I would definitely book them again as they are a brilliant way to really make a party of any sorts. I wish you all the best for 2017 and hope to see you again soon.

A. J.

What an Gig! Many Many thanks to Northern Star for being our wedding evening entertainment. Slightly sceptical the event took place on a Monday, what a shock they had when realising those being entertained have music in their soul. The music was spot-on and fitted in with the vast age group at our event! Thank you once again!

H. A.

Just want to say a big thank you to Matt Cook for singing at our wedding party. He was absaloutly fantastic. Would highly recommended to anyone looking for wedding entertaining, birthday or anything other occasion. Thanks so much ****

Strings Attached gave an excellent performance at our family's wedding reception at Northcote, Langho, on 23/4/17. They performed outdoors whilst guests drank champagne and ate canapés from Northcote's kitchen. The set included some personal selections from the bride and groom. They were simply great and helped make a perfect wedding day. Highly recommended.

A valuable service providing peace of mind and acting as a go between for us and the band at initial booking stage before enabling us to contact the band direct. Made searching for an available band and sourcing quotes really quick and easy.

I booked The Crazy Knights band through Freak Music to play at my birthday party. All my communications with Freak music were done through email. I received prompt replies, with accurate and informative information. Whenever i made a payment, an email noting receipt of the payment came within a day of the payment. Contact with the band was efficiently passed on, and I was able to communicate with them directly. I was very happy with The Crazy Knights band, they played an outstanding performance, they engaged the audience and were flexible with music choices. I would highly recommend The Crazy Knights and Freak Music. Many thanks
