What people say

• The band was excellent and I had lots of positive comments from our guests about how good they were. All of the songs sung sounded like the original band which was great. The selection of songs were well chosen and there were lots of people dancing. I would definitely recommend them. Some people said I was mad searching the web for bands and booking a band through an agency without recommendation, but I couldn't have asked for a better service from the agency or the band.

• Century were amazing, we couldn't have picked a better band for our wedding. all our guests were asking where we found such a great band. They were on time and very professional a really nice bunch of very talented guys. They were truly excellent. Many thanks!

  Sarah , Wedding, Kent, November 2009

• Century were the centre piece of my daughter’s 18 birthday party last September and they were a stunning success. We had hired a marquee for our garden and they brought their own sound guy and occupied a decent section of the front of the floor. Exceptionally professional. The kids just loved them. They put together a wonderful set of classics during their first stint; joined in and had some curry with us at their break and then came back "on stage" to perform a further stint of modern stuff; Coldplay etc. Superb. A long quality set; great guitar work, super vocals. The guys were also kind and generous and mingled with the 100 or so guests of all ages.
  Anyway, I'd recommend them and as its my sons 16th next May tell them to expect a call!
  

  Phil, 18th Birthday, September 2009

• Century played at our wedding on 15th August and absolutely made the evening. Their playlist was perfect and their performance and energy were amazing. Despite a tricky sound limiter at the venue, the songs all sounded as good as the originals and the dance floor was packed all night.
  
  We had so many compliments about our choice of band, and I wouldn't be surprised if any of the guests ask how to get in touch with them for future parties. Thanks again boys - you were fantastic!
  
  And I wouldn't hesitate to use Function Central again, Ali was so helpful from start to finish, offering sound advice when I was looking for a band and making the whole process really easy. All in all I don't think we could have found a better agency or band!!
  

  Maddy, Wedding, London, August 2009

• Century was absolutely fantastic....from the moment they started with our Wedding Song till the end of the final set they performed brilliantly. They have a great stage presence and could make all ages want to get up and dance. Their rendition of Video Killed The Radio Star was a highlight as they asked for the boys to go head to head singing with the girls which was great fun. They are a very smart band and I understand from the ladies, their looks weren't that bad either! I would thoroughly recommend them to anyone having a special party looking for a band.

  Andy, Wedding, Sussex, August 2009

• I can honestly say that Century were fantastic. They were young enthusiastic and the music rocked – a very talented group of polite young men. We received so many compliments about the music, they created a real party atmosphere. I think people were delighted not to have the traditional ‘cheese’ played by an overweight, annoying, intrusive DJ who thinks the party is more about him than the guests. I would certainly recommend Century to anyone who wants a great party with a bit of pop/rock and some killer rifts!

  David, Wedding, Derbyshire, August 2009

• Century were outstanding. They arrived and set up without us even noticing - which is great for the bride and groom! - and played a varied set of songs. We were extremely grateful they learnt our first song for us - Bon Jovi's Living on a Prayer - which we will remember forever.
  

  Michael and Louise, Wedding, Somerset, August 2009

• Thanks Mike and the team for all your help and professionalism in organising a live band for our wedding reception. As you know we lost a band very close to our wedding day only for you guys to step in to help - and what a fantastic choice in Century. Your website was really useful and easy communication and booking between us took away all the worries.

  Graham and Jo, Wedding, Mid Sussex, May 2009

• Thanks very much to Century for helping to make our day so special. Everyone had a great time and I wouldn't hesistate to recommend them to anyone who wants a live band! Cheers guys! And totally impressed with all correspondence from everyone from my initial enquiry til the actual day. If I had a problem, it was resolved quickly. Thanks very much.

  Drew, Wedding, London, April 2009

• The band were amazing, the guys were very professional on the night and the music was great, they made every effort to sing the songs requested by our guests and they sounded great. I really think they made the wedding and everyone was talking about them afterwards.

  Geraldine, Wedding, January, London, April 2009

• A huge thank you to Century - top tunes boys!! You judged perfectly, and cracked a tough crowd. Everyone was up dancing all night with a mix of current indie, pop, great 80’s classics and just the right touch of cheese!!

  Fiona, Carpmaels & Ransford New Year Party, London, April 2009

• The performance of Century at our wedding evening reception really had the guests rocking. The quality and depth of their sound, including the vocals, was stunning. Many of their covers sounded as good as the originals. Their repertoire was ideal for the occasion and they were highly professional throughout, and nice guys to deal with. We recommend them with confidence.

  Katie and Andrew , Wedding, September, Hertfordshire, September 2008

• We would just like to say Thank you to Century who played superbly at our wedding reception. The music was fab, everybody was up on the dance floor. Highly recommended to entertain a wide age range of wedding guests. Thanks!!!

  Nele , Wedding, September, Essex, August 08

• Ned and I were very impressed with Century when they played at our wedding reception at Audley End house in September. They kept all of our guests, of varying ages and tastes, on the dancefloor all night! Their choice of tracks were brilliant and had everyone singing along. They created a real party atmosphere with people oblivious to the torrential rain outside the marquee. We thought they were a very talented band and we have had lots of positive feedback from our guests. We would definitely recommend Century to others and would use them again ourselves if the occasion arose. Many thanks to you and Alistair for all your help with finding them.

  Charlotte and Ned, Wedding, September, London, August 2008

• I'd be glad to help - the band were fantastic! From the friendly way that they introduced themselves to the professional yet fun way they performed, Century made our night for us. The music was amazing (someone outside even asked when the band was going to start as they thought it was the original CD!), the band were lively, looked fantastic, and tailored themselves perfectly to the audience. They obviously enjoy what they do and this was infectious. I wouldn't even look around if I needed a band again - I'd go straight to Century!

  Julie and Rob , Wedding Party, West Midlands, August 2008

• Just a quick email to say thanks for sorting out Century for our function on Saturday. Everyone had such a good time. I hope the band enjoyed themselves as well as the dancefloor was full all night long. I told Dan from the band that I would send a testimonial for your website so it would be glad if you could pass this onto the band as well. I would like to thank the band personally for making our reception so special. They are extremely talented musicians and kept the 150 guests fully entertained with their extensive repertoire of dancefloor and rock classics. I lost count of the number of people who came up to me during the party to ask how I found the band. Every inch of the dancefloor was full of admirers and there was audible dissappointment when the band finished their set. A number of friends with weddings in the next few years have already asked me for the band's number as they were so impressed. Thanks so much and hopefully see you again soon at other functions in future'

  Matt , Mirror Group Newspapers, Wedding, London, August 2008

• THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!! I cannot tell you how fantastic Century were at my party! Not only did they play everything better than the originals, they were charming funny and very tolerant of our antics! They absolutley made the party and I am very grateful! Please pass my comments on to them and expect a surge in bookings from the south!!! Every single person there commented on how great they were and any future occassions they will be looking to book them! Once again, thanks to both you and the band for making my 50th birthday perfect! Just wish I COULD DO IT ALL AGAIN!

  Lyn , B'day Party, August, Surrey, July 2008

• Century were fantastic and provided a lively and fun atmosphere at our wedding reception. They had everyone dancing, including our 92 year old Gran and we do and would recommend them to everyone!

  Anna, Wedding, August, Hertfordshire, June 2008

• Century played our wedding on June 7th 2008. We chose them based on their great repertoire - and we weren't disappointed. They played all our favourites and had people dancing all night (even my friend with a broken ankle). They had great energy and stage presence and they instigated some very enthusiastic audience participation! We had surprised everyone with some (very classy) blow up guitars for some full on rock action and these were put to good use during their rendition of Livin' on a Prayer (amongst many other classics!). Many people commented on their performance, and my husband has even gone as far to say that 'Video Killed the Radio Star' should now be one of 'our songs'!! Massive thanks to all the band - I would be happy to recommend them to anyone.

  Rebecca, Wedding, June, Leicestershire, June 2008

• Century did my 40th birthday party for around 100 guests of all ages and backgrounds; the guys were absolutely brilliant at playing something for everyone, and it was all the highest quality in vocals, music, timing...honestly, every guest told me how impressed they were and even today I have been asked for their details for a friends wedding next summer! Many thanks to the whole band - the party was totally fantastic because of them.

  Deborah, Birthday Party, Essex, June 2008

• Mike, band were brilliant can you thank them for making the evening of our wedding one we will never forget! Thanks for everything.

  Dave, Wedding, May, Kent, May 2008

• The panic was on to find a band for our Christmas party, 95 guests which encluded a wide spectrum of ages and as it was all terribly last minute the stress was on. Thankfully my prayers were answered with 'Century'. With 4 days notice you came to our rescue. The organising was made effortless. You turned up, set up and blew them away with your enthusiasm and talent. Our crowd are not the easiest to please but you made such a fabulous impression that after many enquiries from guests I have forwarded your details to all those with events coming up and I'm sure that your 2008 calendar will be really chocka! Thank you all for a fabulous night that is highly memorable and hope that we will be able to secure another booking before you get too famous!! Best of luck guys and thanks again!!"

  Rhiannon , Telegenic Christmas party, London, December 2007

• Thanks guys for recommending Century to us - they absolutely rock! From start to finish they were complete gents, a delight to deal with and much better looking than their photo suggests! And as for the music; they were totally awesome. They had to please a range of ages from ultra-cool teenagers to doddery old farts and did so incredibly well. I had so many people asking me how I found the band and telling me they were amazing, I lost count. Their repertoire is really wide ranging and they sound so good that it didn't take long until there was no room on the dance floor, which I think says it all, as do my worn out feet! There's not many a night you will see people doing the twist one minute, rocking and rolling the next, followed by a good pogoing/headbanging session!! Thank you again heaps - we'd have them back every week!

  Katie, Wedding, London, July 2007

• Thanks for the band guys. They were brilliant, big time. I love the Killers, and the lads renditions were ace. The camp were impressed and I got a pat on the back. Your details are up on our entertainment board, and a lot of people are asking who I went through. Hopefully we'll do business again. Really appreciate it.

  Mark , 39 RHQ Regt, Mess Ball, Hampshire, June 2007

• Thanks again for your help Alistair. We loved them - what a band! ..

  Jane, 30th Party, London, December 2006

• I just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU to the band for being so great and to you for all help in sorting out a band for our wedding. Even the oldies at the wedding were raving about how good the band was, we thought they were brilliant, their cover of Reef was the dogs b******* (excellent)!!

  Julie, Wedding, London, September 2006

• Just a quick mail to say thank you so much for recommending Century - they looked and sounded great!
