Couldn't ask for anymore
We booked The Upstarts for our wedding after falling in love with their setlist. They were, in short, incredible. Firstly, Rob was an absolute pleasure to speak to before, during and after the event, making organisation of the band on the night as easy as possible. The band even accommodated a couple of last minute requests, which I was so grateful for and demonstrates their commitment to the performance. On the performance, The Upstarts had the entire wedding party on the dance floor from start to finish, playing a fantastic range of songs which appealed to everybody of all ages. They really played to the room. But they also went above and beyond, interacting with the crowd and even letting me join them on stage on trombone for a tune or two, which meant a lot to me and my family. For anyone wanting a book a band of very talented musicians who will bring a huge party to your event, you must book The Upstarts! -
Phenomenal Performance
Having The Upstarts as our wedding band was a major highlight of our day. Their communication leading up to the day was fantastic and their commitment to the performance was demonstrated on the night; they had even learned a song we had requested especially for the evening. We were blown away by not only what a skilled group of musicians they are, but the lead vocals were incredible - meaning we were confident choosing a range of song styles as they performed fantastic covers with their own bespoke style, which we loved! The look and energy of the band was brilliant. They had the dance floor bouncing, got involved with the guests - Chris even came out into the crowd with his guitar! Absolute class act. They were also generally lovely people and were so friendly to everyone. We would 100% recommend these lads to anyone looking for a funky, trendy vibe for their evening wedding party. -
Excellent Band. Great Entertainers
The Upstarts were one of a number of "great investments" for our wedding day celebrations. Their professional approach throughout the evening accompanied by their friendly and enthusiastic rapport with us and our guests made then an invaluable part of what made our wedding celebrations so special. As a set of musicians they perform with great enthusiasm, a playlist with something for everyone in it and an ensemble tightness you only get from experienced, well rehearsed musicians. All our guests loved them and many made inquiries as to how we discovered them. Cannot recommend these guys too highly. An absolute joy as professionals, musicians and entertainers. The dance floor was full all night and nobody wanted them to stop. -
Everybody said they were the best wedding band they’d seen
If you like the setlist don’t even bother to keep looking, these guys are the one. Professional, amazing setlist, incredible sound, and genuinely great with the crowd, multiple people said they were the best wedding band they’d seen. The additional saxophonist was incredible too, thoroughly recommend -
The Upstarts are amazing
The Upstarts performed at our wedding with an acoustic duo at arrival (well worth considering) and an awesome two set performance. They learned pencil pull of lead (Paolo Nutini) for our first dance and nailed it. The band was courteous, punctual and all round great performers throughout. -
Amazing band!
We can’t recommend the Upstarts enough! They were brilliant and had the dance floor filled for the entire set! Thank you so much, you made our day and we’re so grateful! -
The Upstarts - Everything we wanted and more
The Upstarts were (and I can't stress this enough) AMAZING at our wedding day!!! They were great in the build up: We had a call with them a couple of months beforehand and went through our plan for the day, the style of music we like, some songs we wanted from their set list, and we were confident they were going to do a good job. But wow, they were way better than we had ever imagined, and our guests were blown away, everyone wanted to know where we had got them. Two sets perfectly pitched to the mood in the room, first a few oldies and rock and roll etc, and the second set was mainly some indie/punk rock that had the room jumping. Chris the lead singer was phenomenal, and the guitarist is amazingly talented, with some solos that had the whole room going crazy. They were really fun too, with plenty of engagement with the crowd. They made me and my bride feel like rockstars as well! Also huge credit to them because we were running late and they had to deal with the buffet overlapping with their first set, but they handled it like absolute pros. I genuinely cannot recommend them enough, they were one of the best things about our wedding day. Thanks so much lads! -
Unbelievable!
We honestly can’t thank The Upstarts enough for the incredible atmosphere they created at our wedding! From the first song to the last, the dancefloor was absolutely bouncing - it was never empty! The sound was amazing, the setlist was perfect, and their energy was infectious. So many of our guests said how brilliant the band was -they really made the night unforgettable. If you’re looking for a band that will get the party going and keep it going, look no further. The Upstarts were an absolute highlight of our day! -
Amazing band, taking our office party to the next level! Highly recommend!
What can I say, the Upstarts were amazing! From the moment of booking we had fantastic communication with Jak who was incredibly helpful in the early stages ensuring he took the time to find out exactly what we were looking for from our party entertainment. All of the guys were really lovely guys, and we had so much positive feedback about the band after the event, they really are a talented group! Would 100% recommend them and would book them again in an instant! -
