Nikki T booked Hellzapoppin for their event
“Great band. Played / sung the National Anthem as a special request for the Jubilee weekend. Everyone enjoyed the music very much.”
Lucy S booked Hellzapoppin for their Wedding
“I wanted a smokey jazz club feel for my Peaky Blinders wedding and Hellzapoppin certainly delivered! Ruby’s vocals were epic and the musicians were on point. The dance floor was packed all evening with my guests asking for more more more at the end. I couldn’t have asked for a better band, I totally recommend them! And their communication with us from first booking to the wedding day was consistent and he reassured me throughout the process. One very happy Bride and Groom and guests as a result, perfect!”
