“These guy's are fantastic! We booked Happy Hour for our Wedding as we didn't want a DJ (say no to Cheesy music). The Sets were brilliant cater for the older crowd to start (50's 60's) stuff and progressed onto more current day, everyone had a great evening, friends are still commenting what a good night they had. Superb!”

“When we were choosing a wedding band for our special day we listened to literally hours of samples and read many, many playlists but could not find that anyone who felt right. The playlists were too twee, too narrow or just plain hideous. The samples we listened too also did not contain that certain something, that pizzazz that would make our day and in the worst cases perhaps the bands had chosen the wrong career. That all changed when we heard Happy Hour. We knew right away that this was the special band that could add to the magic of our wedding day and Happy Hour didn’t let us down. Happy Hour have an aura about them that dispels them from sounding like any of the more traditional wedding bands who play the same old dull tunes. They were really friendly and approachable in discussing the playlist, willing to learn some new songs that we really wanted played, which gave us a feeling of inclusion and made us feel like our wedding was the greatest of all, putting all the previous high profile weddings to shame. Its personal touches like this that can really distinguish a band you think were okay and wouldn’t think about again to a band you would be happy to recommend in the future. Keep this up! Happy Hour even went the extra mile to make sure the occasional was extra special. Let me explain how they did this; I wanted to give a special gift to the father of the bride for saying “yes” when I asked if I could marry his daughter. Purely by chance I heard a song on the radio that I thought would be great if it was played during the traditional brides dance with her father. The song was “Stealing Cinderella” by Chuck Wicks and I suddenly thought that it would be an excellent gift if I performed it live for them. I discussed this with Richie from the band who thought this was a great idea and promptly set up rehearsals so that the lads were prepared. Alas, the band lives in the south and I am in the top end of Northumberland so rehearsals including me were not going to happen. Using Richies excellent idea of harnessing the power of YouTube to make sure both myself and the band were singing from the same songsheet, I would perform with the band for the first time live on the night. This must be daunting for a professional singer, never mind a pure amateur! Happy Hour were consummate professionals though and on the night the song went very smoothly, the band working to my singing cues to make both the bride and her dad very happy (and emotional) indeed. And after listening to testimonials from the guests, the band even managed to make me sound good. Well done lads as this clearly was an awesome feat! On our perfect day, Happy Hour were the perfect compliment.They performed songs that we wanted to hear and really ensured that everyone enjoyed themselves. Thank you for being part of our day. Matt and Vicky, Northumberland (September 2008) ”

“Dear Paul, Thank you for your message. We had such a wonderful day and I would like to thank you and the band for making it even more special. They got everyone up and dancing, which was exactly what I had hoped for, and were great at interacting and catering to our needs. I have since had numerous compliments on the band, one such comment along the lines of: 'They are the best band I have ever seen at a wedding!' I am sure that they will get some business out of my guests. And one couple have already asked for details for the band to possibly play at their friend's wedding!! I am very glad I found them, and will earmark them for if I have a big birthday bash in the future. Kind regards, Alex”

“Hi Richie, Sorry for taking so long to write but we have just got back from holidays. I wanted to write to say a big big big thank you for the 28th June. You were really fantastic. I admit that booking a band was the hardest and scariest thing about the whole wedding organisation as it is so important to the whole evening - and I was really worried about booking a band from the internet with so little to go on. Honestly, you were perfect, I mean I can dance all night but so could everyone else which was great! Apart from the music being great I also have to say thank you for your flexibility. The timings were totally messed up and you were so flexible, playing for 2 hours straight was amazing and we really appreciated it. Apart from anything else, everyone was exhausted when you finished which meant there was no problem when they all had to leave at 12. Also re the noise limiter - I have no idea how this works but we did not notice anything so definitely no problem. If you need a reference for future bookings, I am happy to help, definitely no complaints and lots of positive things to say. Thanks again, Rebecca”

“Hi I thought you would like some feedback on Happy Hour who played for our Sixth Form Ball on Friday night. Ive been running the Ball for eight years now so have seen rather a lot of cover bands. They were absolutely brilliant. The music was very suitable and it was hard to get a place on the dance floor. Some of the students danced for the whole time!! The students thought they were really great...they even let our Headmaster sing....he and his wife used to play in a band!! Thanks you so much...please can we now book them to come back next year?

“Hi, Both artists were great and the event went really well. Happy Hour ended up acoustic only as the noise pollution monitor cut out the amps! That was not their fault though! Thanks for introducing them, I feel you offer a very good service. Will certainly contact you again if I am in need of live music. Best Wishes Catherine ”
