Testimonials

“8 months since our wedding people are still commenting on how great the band were! Funk You! we’re polite, professional and accommodating. We were running about an hour behind and the band sacrificed their breaks to play their entire 2 hour set of floor filling music. The old school to new school hip hop and funk tracks meant that the youngest and oldest guests could get their dance on. I would pay to see these guys play tomorrow. I can not recommend the band enough…if you do hire them, please invite us to the evening do so we can join in the fun!”Mark Webb – Wedding, Ridge Farm, Surrey

“Hi Phoebe, Could you please pass our thanks on to the band for Saturday night. They were amazing & so talented. All night I had people asking who they were and where I found them.

All our friends absolutely loved it. It was such a brilliant day and to have Funk You perform and end it on such a high, made it even better. I would say that we would be recommending them to our friends, but they did that all by themselves that evening! I'm already trying to work out what events we either have coming up (or what events I can find an excuse) to get in contact with you again to use their services once more! Thanks again, so much. Kind Regards”Simon & Lucy Johnson! - Wedding, The Old Greens Barn, Surrey

“Funk you recently played at our wedding in Bexley, South East London. They guys were fantastic - they sounded great and most importantly they got our reception revelers dancing away. Really slick work, highly recommend. You won't be disappointed.”Chris Marshall - Wedding Halll Place & Gardens, Bexley

“Hi Phoebe, just a very quick note to say that the band was AMAZING!!! In a day of stand out memories, one of my favourite was their encore of jump around.

“Happy new year. Huge thanks again for new year great night.”Michaela Humphrey - Private party, Hampshire, NYE 2016

"Just an early thanks to you and Funk You with regard to being our band at our wedding reception. The lads were amazing at getting set up, were friendly and exactly what we were hoping for and more. We would love to come and watch them again so please let us know if they have any gigs! Couldn't recommend them more highly to anyone wanting a fun, modern band with the intention of getting everyone on the dance floor, or the under 55s at least! Thanks again and please pass our gratitude onto the boys."Magdalena and Brendan Craggs - Wedding, Quantock Lakes, Bridwater

5/5. I’d like to say a huge thanks - we didn’t get to speak to the guys as between dancing and chasing round our kids it just flew by. So a great big thanks for belting out some classics.Irina - Wedding - St Johns Place, Salisbury

Funk you were absolutely amazing! They were professional turning up on time and playing their sets. They are an extremely talented bunch of guys and everyone commented on how fabulous they were. In addition to this they were extremely patient and good humoured with the drunken bride who kept wanting the microphone. Please extend my apologies for being so annoying and my thanks for their tolerance!Gemma - Wedding, Clevedon Hall, Clevedon
