"A huge thank you to Groove Collider who did a fabulous set at our fundraising ball recently. They got the whole room up and dancing on one of the hottest nights of the year. They were huge fun and really flexible when we had to juggle timings at the last minute. Would 100% recommend!"

"Father’s Day Weekend with Joe and Gayle A plethora of high quality musical events greeted the mountain community on the long Father’s Day weekend. The weekend kicked off with the dynamite power trio, The Joe Ferraro Band, on the patio at Mountain High North on Saturday, June 17th. Forty-one vintage rock and blues offerings were delivered with high energy by Joe ( guitar and vocals) and the solid rhythm section of Phil Thomasson (bass) and Joe Faraci (drums). This veteran outfit featured vintage songs of Eric Clapton and Cream on “Badge”, “Outside Woman Blues”’, “Politician”, and “Strange Brew”. Joe Ferraro nailed the vocals and guitar artistry of arguably the best (“cream of the crop”) rock trio in history. The audience was treated to a fare by Howlin’ Wolf ((Spoonful; I ain’t Superstitious; Hootchie Cootchie Man)) and Ferraro’s own “Slewfoot”. Ferraro learned a thing or two from Albert King (“Crosscut Saw and Born Under a Bad Sign”);B.B.King (“Worried Life Blues”) and Freddie King (“I’m Tore Down”). The Fabulous Thunderbirds were well represented (“She’s Tuff” and “Tuff Enough”), as were Stevie Ray Vaughn (“Empty Arms” and “Mary Had a Little Lamb”). Want some Hendrix? How about “Stonefree and The Wind Cries Mary”? So many great songs played by Ferraro’s terrific group, if you closed your eyes, you would testify that Clapton had visited Wrightwood! "

"Oh my goodness if I could give The Cheers 1000/10 I so would! We hired them to play an acoustic set during our welcome drinks at our wedding and the live party sets for the evening bash and they were absolutely fabulous. We were literally blown away and they were everything we hoped for and exceeded our expectations. The acoustic set was perfect jazzy modern soulful and really a wonderful backdrop to canapés and fizz. Everyone loved it and I would really recommend opting for this. It sets the day off to such a lovely start. I liased with Ben before hand and he also put together a wonderful dinner playlist. And then the party really started! The bands vocals are amazing and they really get the crowd going! So much so we actually BROKE the dance floor at the venue! Song after song after song was a belter. They were just amazing! They also managed the play list of music between sets and it was perfect. Everyone young and old was up on the dance floor. We have had so many comments about how fantastic the band were. Also I found Ben and the band so professional personable and delightful to have around on the day. Really genuine passionate people. I want to do it all again! Booking The Cheers was one of the best decisions we made and they absolutely nailed the music! Thanks so much guys! (10 / 10)"

"What can we say? A star Band is born! You guys were absolutely terrific. The six piece format was just brilliant. You saw the reaction of our friends and family for yourselves. I have never witness a dance floor at a party like ours fill so quickly and stay full throughout the evening. You were an inspiration. "

"The Arrival played at our wedding last week. They were absolutely amazing. Their second set of songs had loads of people on their feet dancing, and they were full of energy throughout. Not only was the singing and playing superb, they were also outstanding performers so it was great to just watch as well as to dance to. They also performed our first dance and father and bride dance songs, combining a couple of songs together. Therefore they went above and beyond preparing to play for our wedding. I personally was up dancing to their songs the whole time, loved the music they played, and lots of our wedding guests were commenting to me how good the band was. Some of our guests had travelled over 300 miles for our wedding and wished the band were more local to them so they could book them for upcoming birthday parties. I would definitely recommend."

"The Cheers were absolutely fantastic at our wedding this summer and I can highly recommend them! They were exceptional on the day, the dance floor was always full and they knew how to work the crowd perfectly. In the months leading up to the event, all communication was professional, and nothing was too much trouble. We particularly loved that they learned our first dance song, and even customised it to a different tempo for us! Thank you so much to the whole band, we had many compliments from our guests and you really made our wedding reception the success it was!"

"What a performer and guitarist Highly recommend seeing mark. He has done his Dire Straights set and being a big fan of them 10/10 is the most I can give and the second set was his choice of his greatest guitar players. Also excellent. If you get a chance to book him don’t hesitate whist you can. Excellent choice you will love his performances. "
