What people say Help

  • I can’t express enough how fantastic Blackjack were on our Wedding Day, all our family and friends absolutely raved about then and asked where I had found them. They kept in mind all our requests relating to song choices, and were absolutely brilliant on the night. Everyone was up dancing all night and the atmosphere at the evening reception was amazing. Myself and Alan would like to say a massive thank you to the band for over exceeding all our expectations. We would also like to say thank you to Central Function for making it so easy to book and arrange and always keeping me updated on arrangements running up to the Wedding.

  • I always book Blackjack in my two clubs as they always deliver a great night. No matter the audience they always pick the perfect set-list to please everyone and create a great atmosphere. It’s also incredible to see how they stay so contemporary putting the work in to make sure they know the chart songs. A class act!
