Testimonials
Our commitment to excellence has earned us a reputation for being one of the UK's top wedding and party bands. Here's what some of our delighted clients have to say:
"Shine On performed at our wedding in June 2023. I highly recommend them as they were fantastic. They're the best band that I've ever seen at a wedding. The band has a large repertoire of songs and we were able to select ones that we wanted them to play in advance. They also performed our requested first dance, which wasn't in their original song list. The band played an eclectic mix that everyone enjoyed - a number of our guests commented that they were a great band. Communication with the band before the wedding was very easy, which was very reassuring for us. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Thanks so much to Ian and the other band members!" - Sarah, June 2023
"Shine On came all the way to Sweden to play at our wedding and though we knew they would be amazing, they exceeded all our expectations, providing an amazing 2-hour private concert. Shine On are certainly not your average 'function band'! Everyone has been raving about the band ever since. To any bridezillas out there, I can not recommend them highly enough - professionalism and communication are exemplary, and they are the loveliest of guys." - Lina and Paul, August 2012
"Stop overthinking it and just book this band. You have absolutely no reason to book anyone else. They are the perfect entertainment for both day and night and for ANY taste in music. We loved every minute of it! Thank you Ian and all the boys for all you did. You were so generous with your time in the run-up and went above and beyond on the day. Perfect." - Emily M, October 2022
