What people say Help

  • We thought the band were really good, sounded as good as the clips on the Function Central website. The band seemed to have a lot of energy, so the vibe easily spread to the audience. A lot of guests commented on the band and asked how we'd found them. Many thanks for your service - we're very glad we booked the band through Function Central. Other agencies websites weren't as informative and it put me off using them. The booking felt secure and organised which was a relief when there's already hundreds of other things to stress about on planning a wedding!

  • The Young Hearts played at our staff party last Friday. I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know how enjoyable and professional they were. I’ve seen few, more high profile bands that paid as much attention to detail as the Young Hearts did during sound check and setup. To me, the sound and look of the band was pretty much spot on. We have had multiple comments from party guests expressing how good they thought the band were. They definitely managed to encourage more people onto the dance floor with their consistent quality and high energy, fun performance. I don’t have contact details for the band so would appreciate if you could pass on these comments to them. In addition, I have found working with Function Central to be a seamless and pleasurable experience. In the future, I will not hesitate to work with you again. Thanks to all involved.

  • Dear Ali, we both wanted to send you a quick message just to say a HUGE thank you for recommending The Young Hearts to us for our party. The dance floor was filled with all our friends and family all night and the vaiety of songs was perfect, keeping us 'olds' happy as well as the kids. The guys were so talented (we didn't realise they all sung- you should mention this!) and we were especially impressed by the girls who were great at keeping the dancefloor full. Now just looking for an excuse to hire them again!

  • Just got back from our honeymoon, and looking through some of the wedding photos now. Brought back all the memories of our lovely day!
    We really wanted to say thank you for passing us onto the Young Hearts. What a band! They looked and sounded like they should be on TV, and they played as if they were performing to thousands in an arena! So many of our guests commented on how much fun they had and that the music was fantastic. Thanks again and please send our thanks to the band.
