The Superjets are awesome!
Jonathan B booked Superjets for their event
We decided very early on in the planning of our big day that it was going to be a festival-themed wedding.That meant that the band, or effectively headline act, needed to exude a number of qualities including an extensive repertoire, a strong sound and most of all the ability to entertain a tipi full of revellers. When we came across The Superjets on Alive Network they seemed to embody all the characteristics we were looking for in a band, and more. Needless to say we booked them straight away. Leading up to the day of our nuptials, the band were easily contactable and aways pleasant in their dealings with us, making themselves available through email, text message and phone call. This is something that can't be overlooked, as when you are planning a wedding you need to know everything is going to run smoothly. The band were happy to answer any of our questions and even offered some suggestions to the running order of the day which were appreciated and taken onboard. Which leads us to the day itself and they did not disappoint at all. From the moment they hit the stage they were of the highest calibre, packing out the dancefloor and interacting with the crowd between songs. They played songs from various genres and decades and each one was well received and played as the original artist intended. In fact at times it was hard to differentiate between the original recording and the Superjets version, which is a level of perfectionism that can't be faulted. Having a good mix of music at an event like a wedding is key due to the range of ages and tastes in attendance and all of our guests got involved on the dancefloor. So good were the band in fact that one of our guests, renowned for never having a boogie, even dangled his toe over the edge of the dancefloor in appreciation of their talent. We picked out a few songs prior to the wedding which we knew we wanted the band to play and each one of these was delivered with sonic precision. The rest of the set the 'jets chose themselves and every classic they belted out went down better than the last. From The Beatles to Queen, the Kinks to Guns N Roses, everything sounded fantastic. We had a Marryoke filmed on the day of the wedding and the band were only too happy to play Huey Lewis and the News' 'Power of Love' early on in their set. As the guests had been singing it all day it proved to be very popular and the rendition was spot on. Both my wife and I are keen Nirvana fans and we mentioned to the band prior to the wedding that we wouldn't mind them playing 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' but to obviously use their own gauge as to whether or not they felt it might go down well, after all we didn't want to alienate those in attendance who didn't appreciate the rockier side of music. We needn't have worried however, they played it as their last song and it went down a storm, filling the dancefloor more than any other song and not just those with a penchant for heavier guitar based tunes. Dancing with our parents to Nirvana on our wedding day is a memory we will treasure forever. If you are looking for a band that are talented, professional and most of all can fill a dancefloor then look no further, the Superjets are awesome! In the days following our wedding we were bombarded with comments about how amazing the band were and there was no argument from us,the Superjets made the best day of our lives even more special. Thanks again, guys!
