Great band for our Summer Ball!
"We were looking for a quality band that could offer a variety of music to suit a mix of ages - and Re-Release stood out immediately. From initial communications, to the day of the event we had numerous very friendly and very efficient comms with the Band Manager - making the whole process easy for us in terms of the arrangements and detail. The Manager worked with us to ensure we were happy with the songs on the playlist - they actually flexed the playlist slightly on the night, reading the room and maximising the enjoyment for guests. The band were excellent, with a great lead singer - and they created a wonderful atmosphere (a transformation for us from previous bands!). We've had fantastic feedback from our guests on the night."

Such an interesting and fun band.
"We had white light band for our summer party and they were fantastic. Great costumes, musical talent and starlight personas made this a band that was great for rockers, mums and grandmas alike. This is not your average boring wedding band, white light band really brought the noise and played our favourite tunes,"
