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."
