LIVE REVIEWS...... FROM KATY & DAVID.....

 

The Spectrum is a fantastic band, who totally rocked! We were looking for a band who understands that music and 'the party' is a huge aspect of a wedding and we weren't disappointed. From the first interactions with James we knew we were in sync. We WhatsApp'd a lot in the lead up and also FaceTimed to go through the flow from our first dance, to a mini set, to the DJ, to the main set and talk about our choices of music. The band understood the technical requirements from our venue and were able to take that responsibility from us, working with them directly which was a huge help. They are not only professional, friendly, understanding, calming and timely, they know how to rock your party! Thanks Spectrum, memories for life.

 

Kelly & Carl - Wedding, Hampton Court

Hi guys
We just wanted to say a massive thank you for playing at our wedding. You were fantastic and really got the crowd up on the dance floor. I must admit I was so relieved to see the dance floor rocking! I'd stressed about everything leading up to the wedding from lack of atmosphere, to running out of food, to an empty dance floor! I need not have worried! EVERYONE said you were amazing and what a fantastic night they'd had. You honestly made the night for us and we can't thank you enough. And you're a really nice group of blokes too. Hopefully a group of us will come and see you play again on a public gig. I will recommend you unreservedly. Thank you so so much xxx

 

Steve - Private Party, Notts

Everyone commented on the high quality of the entertainment. Great energy and rapport with the crowd. Excellent song selection and response to requests. The were very approachable, no fuss or bother. 10/10!

 

 

Louise & James - Wedding, Worcs

"Just a quick message to say thank you for playing at our wedding. We were so impressed with you! We have had so many comments from guests saying how brilliant you were too! I was a bit worried the dancefloor would be empty because quite a few guests didn't show or left because of work the next day or getting back for kids. Didn't have to worry though because your music got practically everyone up! Everyone loved you! Thanks so much again, you were another part of the day that made it perfect. 100% recommend you in the future."

 

All the best

Louise and James

You guys were great, thank you so much for a great night x

 

 

Sue & Roger - Wedding, Staffs

Hi Guys! Thanks for providing amazing energy and entertainment at our Wedding- you were fantastic. We have had many comments on how good you were- I expect you will pick up at least one booking! For anyone considering booking these guys -DO IT! They will not disappoint. I corresponded a number of times and James was quick to reply and extremely helpful with any query I had. They will entertain your guests brilliantly and leave them wanting more!! A great band, very friendly, ace musicians and their sound is amazing. I can highly recommend them!

 

 

Ruth & Jonny - Wedding, Yorkshire

'Planning a wedding is a headache however from the first contact right through to the big day - Communication was flawless and The Spectrum made an extra effort in learning our first dance song and playing it live for us- which was special! 

They were reliable, timely and read the reactions of the guests perfectly thus played an amazing set of brilliant, on your feet tunes! The DJ element was great having not to look into finding this as an extra job! Thanks guys you played all the right tunes as we never left the floor! Highly recommended. 

 

Thanks again

Ruth 

 

Severn Trent Water -  Award Ceremony

Massive thanks to The Spectrum for a spectacular performance at our awards ceremony of Friday. Literally had the the whole room on the dance floor from the first to the last song. My only complaint is my feet still hurt as I couldn't bring myself to sit out a single song!! Can't wait for another chance to book you guys! 

 

 

David & Stella - Wedding, Worcs

Hi James, what can we say, all the superlatives could never describe the night you and the band gave us on our wedding day. Every guest raved about the great night you gave everyone. Absolutely fabulous thank you again.

 

Ian - Private Party, West Mids

Just to say a huge thank you for Saturday night. James was so helpful in organising the booking, nothing was too much trouble. On the night, everyone was absolutely blown away with the standard of the band, such a great range of repertoire all of which was highly polished and performed to the highest standard with so much energy and enthusiasm. Simply superb lads!!!!

 

 

Nicola & Andy - Wedding, Notts

To everyone thinking of asking these guys to play at your wedding/party/event... DON'T EVEN THINK TWICE!! These guys are AMAZING and will make your night!!!!! I cannot recommend this band enough as they played at our wedding on Saturday and we are still talking about it now!! James was so flexible and helpful with the planning and the change of times on the night and the guitarist playing on the dance floor with the guests was just out of this world! We had such a brilliant night and it was because of you guys!! Thanks so much :) :)

 

Sue & Shaun - Private Party, Leicestershire

We had an absolutely brilliant time and were so pleased we went for live music – we thought you were great and couldn’t believe it when it was the last song! We have had so many of our guests comment on how good you all were and how much they enjoyed the music and the atmosphere you created so a very big thank you! Fantastic music, an amazing atmosphere and prompt, friendly service  – you made our 25th Wedding Anniversary party something really special and we can’t thank you enough. Only wish we had an excuse to do it all over again!

 

 

Sara & Chris - Wedding, Surrey

We have just got back from honeymoon and I thought I would drop you a quick email to say how fantastic you and your band were at our wedding. Everyone has said how much they loved you guys and how they loved the sing along (a very popular event it turns out)! We thoroughly enjoyed our evening and that is thanks to you guys.we will definitely recommend you to anyone who is looking for a band. Many thanks!

 

Bev & Stu - 40th Party, Warwickshire

Just wanted to say a big thank you for a superb performance! Excellent and easy communication. The band were a fantastic group of blokes, knew what they were doing, very organised and pain free! Really made a party into a party. Superb musicians, awesome set lists and the perfect band for any celebratory event. Couldn't recommend them enough, everyone had a superb night, everyone commented on how good the band were and they sure know what they are doing. If your looking for a band to make a perfect night, then look no further. Thanks again and we'd book you again at the drop of a hat for any future events........ Brilliant, thank you. No doubt we'll see you again with the amount of friends that took your card...... Best party, we've ever thrown and mainly down to you guys.

 

 

Emily & Ian - Wedding, Worcestershire

Best Wedding Band Ever!We booked The Spectrum for our wedding in February and they were brilliant! They had a really wide range of songs which meant all age groups enjoyed themselves and they even learnt two new songs for us which were both amazing! The fact that they also provide a DJ for in-between sets is such a great idea and meant that the dance floor was full all night. We have had so many positive comments about them since the day, with everyone saying how much fun the evening reception was and how much everyone danced. We were a little nervous booking a band that we hadn't seen live, but we absolutely should not have worried. They were so friendly, the songs were brilliant and I'm so pleased we booked them! x

 

Hugh - Military Ball

Awesome. Could not have asked for anything more. Great guys and great music. The perfect band for an entertaining evening. Would recommend to anyone. Thanks a lot.

 

Alan Aspden , Birthday event, Lancashire

The Spectrum were fantastic! They responded positively to our requests, their playlist was perfect and everyone had a great time. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. THANK YOU GUYS! Alan and Carolyn Aspden

 

Bill Bailey, Private Party Event, Staffordshire
Dear James, you have asked for feedback on The Spectrum and I have to say that they were... Absolutely Fantastic! Having never booked a band before, I felt confident in the professionalism showed by yourself and your own staff and I was pleased with the level of contact from James from the band up to the event and it was easy to discuss details with him. When they started the first of their three sets, it took less that 5 seconds for the dance floor to fill, and it was packed throughout the entire evening! Even the intervening DJ during the breaks kept people on their feet. Our group consisted of visitors from the UK, Holland, Belgium, Switzerland and Germany and they all had a tremendous time! The band have a very wide set list but we chose to leave them to decide what to play and they went down an absolute storm! Other people at our venue who were attending another event even asked to join us, they were so good. They were happy to play requests and were great entertainment! I would absolutely recommend them to anyone organising an event where they want good quality entertainment from a top-class, lively, energetic and skillful bunch of musicians! One of our foreign guests asked them if they would play abroad, so it may even be the start of an international careers for the guys! An inspired choice - thanks to your recommendation - following our initial discussion and they really were the icing on the cake of a very good weekend. Many thanks indeed! One constructive comment would be that the video clip of them on your website does not at all do them justice. They are much, much better that depicted in the video clip and I am sure that a better clip would be beneficial to them securing more work. They thoroughly deserve it!, Bill Bailey, Chairman, Volkswagen Cabriolet Owners Club GB

 

Mel Duxbury, Birthday Party Event, Cheshire
Great band, great set of lads, thanks for a great nights entertainment.

 

Jodie & Chris, Wedding, Cardiff
We are finally back into the swing of things and back to reality (which is utterly depressing) and am getting round to thanking everyone for making our day absolutely amazing, including yourselves!! We had so many compliments about how good you were and I'm so happy the dance floor was packed from start to finish. Which of course I knew it would be as they follow lead from me! Haha. Slight party animal. The extra songs you learned we amazing and went down fantastically well!! You should definitely add them to your repertoire. They were my favourite of the whole night. And is was great to see you guys enjoying yourselves too as there's nothing worse than seeing bands disinterested in their sets! In all a massive success!! Will definitely recommend you to family and friends though you sold yourselves brilliantly on the night so no need!! I'll se sure to email any photos that you feature in so you can use as you wish. I'm sure there'll be plenty of the packed dance floor!! Please pass our thanks onto the rest of the band and of course the djs who stayed until the very end delivering the quality tunes!! Thank you so much again, Jodie and Chris!Xx

 

Sam & Pete, Wedding, Shropshire
Thank you guys for Friday night! You were AMAZING!!! everyone loved you. I've already given your details to a few friends who are getting married in the next 12 months. Thank you for making it a fab night. Hope to see you perform again soon! Sam and Pete xxx

 

Charlene G, Military Event, Essex
I just wanted to say how fantastic you were at the TOWIE 3 Para party at the Merville Barracks. I thought you were all great fun and were the most enjoyable band I have come across... seriously! I will certainly recommend you to friends/family and book you for future events! Keep up the good work! Hope to see you all soon. Charlene 

 

Kara & Simon, Wedding, Birmingham
The Spectrum were, without doubt, the best wedding band and DJ we had ever heard. From the moment we sent the first email, to the tweets the day after the wedding, every interaction with them was great. But on the day itself, the guys were fabulous. They set up with no fuss whatsoever, while we were having dinner, and were completely flexible when our timings overran. The entertainment they provided was awesome – a great mix of music to get everyone dancing, from youngest to oldest. At one point, they even brought their guitars and joined us on the dance floor. They were great fun, they looked like they were having fun – and that makes a huge difference. Their music is super – they are a very talented group of guys – and the DJing was great too. Our wedding was very much a modern day – and The Spectrum ensured that the dancing and evening entertainment was fresh, fun and very modern – but done in a timeless way. Thanks guys – you were a fantastic addition to our amazing day!

 

Mat & Hayley, Wedding, Warwickshire
Massive thanks to The Spectrum for playing at our wedding last night! You were amazing! No other words to use!

 

Mike & Sal, Wedding

My phone has been going crazy with texts and facebook comments about our wedding day, and nearly everyone has mentioned you guys! :) We will encourage as many of our friends to book you for thier upcoming parties, we'll find any excuse to get back on the dancefloor!

 

Jon Davies, Corporate event
Hi James. Thanks to you and the rest of the band for making our summer ball run so smoothly. Everyone I have spoken to has been very enthusiastic about the night and some have said they don't normally get up to dance were even pulling some moves! Your communication was excellent and this proved to make a very successful evening. Thanks again!

 

Craig, Birthday Event, Staffordshire
Thanks guys for really making my 40th Birthday party by letting me play a couple of numbers with you on my guitar! I felt like a rockstar for the rest of the night!

Jon & Karen, Wedding, Ludlow
Just a BIG THANKS to The Spectrum for making our wedding so special. Our guests were amazed!

 

Sarah, 30th Birthday Party
Hi guys, just a quick note to say a massive thank you for making my party such a fantastic night , you were brilliant! I have had endless texts saying how good the band were and I'm sure you'll be getting some bookings!!!! Your range of songs were fantastic and I can’t believe you managed to fulfil my request of rocking up Bad Romance! Awesome! Roll on tomorrow when I'll hopefully be feeling better!!!! Thanks again, you were fab!

 

Jasmine, Wedding
Just wanted to drop you a quick email to say a HUGE thank you for making the party rock on our wedding day! We had such a great day and then came the party... great play list and you managed to keep the dance floor full all night, even with the DJ mix. Everyone has commented on how brilliant you all were! We will definitely recommend you to anyone that needs a band and we hope we'll dance at one of your functions in the future! Thank you once again.

 

Simon, Wedding
Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you to thank you for your performance at our wedding, you definitely put the icing on the cake of the most perfect day for Lucy and I.  It was important to us also that all of our guests enjoyed themselves as much as we did and I know that The Spectrum played a huge part in helping us achieve this and were a big talking point for weeks afterwards. You all looked like you were having a great time too which came across in your performance, that was as highly polished as it was professional. Thanks again.

 

Mike, 40th Party, Leeds
Thanks guys for making my 40th birthday party one to remember! My friends couldn't stop talking about you for weeks afterwards! I know it was a long way for you to travel, but I hope it was worth it!!!!! We're just trying to think of a reason to book The Spectrum again, 50 just seems too far away!

 

Sue E, Fundraising Summer Ball, Wharton Park
Hi James. Just to say a BIG thank you again to you and the rest of the band for playing at the ball on Friday night. We've had lots of great feedback about the evening, band included! :) Everyone seemed to have a great time, and as per usual I don't think I left the dancefloor! Thanks again, and please pass it on to the others. xxxx
