We haven’t danced that much in ages, and sharing your wonderful music with my friends and family made the day extra special.

You really were the perfect wedding band!”
Helen & Jason Marks - Wedding, Thoresby Courtyard, Nottinghamshire“Hi, just wanted to send a quick email to thank The Magic Tones and all involved for such a wonderful show they put on during our wedding last week. Ive always been reluctant to use a "wedding band" as a lot sound similar to what a high school band would (if that makes sense) but you guys sounded amazing and were professional throughout. Myself and Lucy commented on the night how bad we felt not greeting you when you arrived or having much contact but I guess this also shows how professional the band were to get in and set up without any fuss whatsoever. I wish you all the best for the future and hope I get the opportunity to recommend you to any potential parties/weddings.”
Tim & Lucy Plumbe - Wedding, Parley Manor, Dorset“The Magic Tones were the perfect Wedding band. They kept the dance floor full all night and the energy they put into their wonderfully upbeat music didn't dip from 7 to midnight. My husband isn't a dancing fan and even he was spotted more than once having a boogie! Our first dance was a perfect rendition of L-O-V-E (in fact is there any chance of them recording it for us? We are happy to pay for the time it takes and would love to be able to listen back to it). Our father daughter, mother son dance will also always be an amazing memory with the perfect sound! The band timed their sets perfectly to work around food and when people looked like they were starting to flag! They made a fantastic addition to our perfect day and it sounds like a lot of our guests will be future customers!”
Helen Boyd, Wedding, Thereby Courtyard Nottinghamshire“The Magic Tones were absolutely amazing at our wedding! Everyone young and old were up dancing all night, definitely one of the best decisions we made. Couldn't ask for more from the band and would definitely recommend them to anyone.”
Sarah - Wedding, Powderham Castle, Devon“From the outset of planning our big day, we always knew we wanted a live band as it's one of the most important parts of a wedding. Having seen the YouTube videos and song list we were confident that The Magic Tones would be the best fit for our taste in music. Booking the band was really easy and all of the team were extremely helpful at Tailored Entertainment. The band arrived and set up quickly unnoticed by guests. When they started playing we couldn't have been happier! They are the most amazing wedding band we have ever heard (we've been to over 20 weddings)! We can't thank them enough for making our wedding day so special! All of the guests were saying how amazing the band were and a few are hoping to book them later this year! we literally didn't leave the dance floor the whole time the band were playing and all of our song requests were taken on board and played! Not really quite sure how to put into words how thankful we are!”
Mia - Wedding, Taplins Place, Hook“The Magic Tones were completely brilliant. Booking the band couldn’t have been easier and they were very accommodating in our set list requests and timings, including letting the groom surprise everyone by singing a song with the band. Each member of the band was stand-out, from the drummer to the lead singer. This was not lost on our guests who have been raving about them ever since. We’ve been to a lot of weddings in the last few years and the Magic Tones were one of the very best bands we’ve heard. They had everyone on the dancefloor from the first song till the end of the night. We couldn’t recommend them enough.”
Catherine - Wedding, De Vere New Place, Hampshire“For me the Magic Tones were great. Everything I hoped and wished for. Wow! What can I say about how wonderful the band were and how they made my party truly memorable, not just for me but everybody that was there. Having the right entertainment to ensure the party ‘goes with a bang’ is critical and I think it’s fair to say we picked the right band and some!!!!! From the gentle acoustic set, to the ‘let’s get them up and dancing’ set it was all one big resounding success :) The selection of music played from start to finish was perfect and ensured everybody stayed on the dance floor, which is exactly what I wanted. So many of my friends have commented on how wonderful the band were, so not only will they be firmly etched in my memory for years to come, they will also be etched in the memories of many of my friends. I also know that many of my friends on the night thanked the band and told them how great they were, which I’m really pleased about as they richly deserved the praise. Thank you again ‘Magic Tones’ for creating such a brilliant atmosphere and helping to make my party so memorable for so many From my perspective I would also like to thank you for your help and support in arranging this. It has all gone very smoothly and helped make the planning for this event a lot less stressful than it could have been. Very Best Regards”
Tracie & Craig Butt- Birthday Party at a Private Address“The Magic Tones were by far one of the best covers band we have ever seen. Their performance at our wedding was second to none, many of our friends have mentioned to us since the wedding just how amazing the band were and we absolutely agree. The set list and timings worked amazingly well and we're not sure that they would have left the building alive if they hadn't played one more song like they did at the end of the night. It was great to see that the dance floor was never empty. From a personal perspective, how the band fitted with our overall plans and theme for the wedding was seamless. Their set up was very professional and (if we hadn't been to the bar as they were setting up) independent from us - which was exactly what we needed on our big day. They way that the band learnt and then performed our slightly obscure first dance was amazing. Sam and I were blown away by the performance (bearing in mind we have both seen the original artist perform this song a number of times!). Again, Sam and I cannot fault the set list, the pace and the fact that everyone was up and dancing on every song that was played was awesome. They are incredibly talented. We just wish we could re-live it again and again. We cannot thank the band enough!”

A problem unfortunately beyond my control. The band were great in reorganising their set times and we were very grateful for their flexibility. We have since had many many great comments about the band. Thanks once again,”
Alex - Wedding, Rhinefield House Hotel, Brockenhurst“We had a fantastic day and night thank you. The band were outstanding. They played out first dance to perfection.

Many thanks, ”
Catherine - Wedding, Rhinefield House, Brockenhurst“The night was a great success, the band were all set up ready when I arrived, they asked me a few questions before the guests arrived and then started promptly.
They were fantastic and all the guests said how good they were.
Please can you pass on to them my thanks for making a great evening. I would also like to thank them for making such an effort singing Rick Astley - Never gonna give you up!!

From the first to the last minute the dance floor was full which I haven't seen that often at weddings, and this is testament to the bands energy and class.
Thank you so much and I'm not sure I need to do much in the way of referral as there are 150 advocates of their work now!”
“Dear Phoebe, In short, the band were amazing! The obscure first dance song that we asked the Magic Tones to learn for us (You're Lovely To Me by Lucky Jim) was performed impeccably with a fantastic male lead vocal and from that point on the energy and enthusiasm of the band was relentless. The song choices of the band meant that the dance floor was jumping during all three of the very enjoyable sets. The vocals from the female lead were exceptional and the band were highly professional throughout the evening. They even allowed some of our more excitable guests to perform some guest vocals towards the end of the night. We have had nothing but positive feedback about the band from our guests and would not hesitate in recommending The Magic Tones to anyone looking for a first rate wedding band. Many thanks,”
David and Katherine - Rhinefield House, Brockenhurst, New Forest“Hi Phoebe, A massive thank you to the band for making our special day complete.

Their energy and sound got almost everyone up dancing and left people wanting more at the end of the night. The vocalist had a beautiful voice and the band blended perfectly together performing an excellent repertoire of songs. The adapted version of our first dance song was excellent. A wedding band will often dictate the evenings entertainment and the Magictones certainly did a fantastic job.

We have had a few people ask who the band were and have made sure to pass your details on to them.

Actually, already one of our guests asked for your details to book them for his wedding instead of the DJ he had organized, that's how impressed he was lol!!Thank you guys so very much for being part and making our special day amazing!!!”
“They were absolutely amazing!! Totally got our guests dancing all night and everyone commented on how great they were!! I would definitely recommend them to anyone!! Thank you for a smooth experience in booking with you.”
Idy Ho - Wedding , Southend Barns, Chichester“Hi Amy, I was just wanting to write to thank the band for such a fantastic performance at our wedding on 29th May at Sopley Mill! They were brilliant, the dance floor was packed from start to finish, and the next day there were a lot of comments from guests about them being the best wedding band people had seen! (I've already been passing on your details to people who would like to book them for future events) Please pass on our thanks to the band, and I would be happy to write a review/use my comments on your website if that would help.”
Jonny and Jo - Wedding , Sopley Mill, Christchurch, Hampshire.“Hi Amy, Thank you very much for both AJ, and The Magic Tones - both were excellent. We had a few people commenting about AJ during the day on his guitar, saying he was very good, and that it was brilliant to have. Very nice guy, and would recommend him to anyone. Think he might have got a little burnt sat in the sun though :) The Magic Tones were superb. Sadly, not as many people danced as we would have liked, but we made up for that the best we could! They were brilliant, and can't thank them enough for learning our first dance, as we know it was a little unusual to the "normal" choices. They played it (and she sang it) amazingly. We spoke to the singer (sorry, I can't remember her name) a few times and she was lovely, and very keen to make sure we were happy. I think half way through the second set, they realised the rocky-er songs got people dancing (which she said after was odd, as it's usually the cheesy stuff) so changed there set around which was brilliant. The band were great, and she was brilliant - we couldn't recommend these guys enough and rave about her vocals to everyone. Thank you very much!”
Jon and Kerry Cummings - Wedding , Elmers Court Hotel, Hampshire.“The band were absolutely amazing, they kept the party going all night, the dance floor was always full!we just thought they were phenomenal so a big thank you to them.

Will Bowers - Wedding , Bocconoc, Cornwall“Dear Nick, Georg and I wanted to write to you and the other members of The Magic Tones to thank you once more for playing for us on Saturday. In case it wasn’t clear by the over loaded, sweat laiden dance floor, our guests adored you. 2 local friends planning their weddings for next year were disappointed they had already booked different bands as they would have booked you if they had had the chance. One friend who is a guitarist was very impressed how you managed to come into Mr Brightside from the unusual mix we had as our first dance. The party really got started when you guys started playing and the atmosphere was electric. Our fond memories of our perhaps quirky wedding will be of standing in the middle of a pulsating dance floor, surrounded by happy faces singing along. We shall continue spreading the word in Salisbury about the band. Thanks for playing for us.”

From the opening song, to the last, the dance floor was full. I have seen many live bands both famous and not, and you guys definitely topped the bill. To hear people genuinely begging for more was testament to how fantastic you were. I had my doubts when we booked, I had visions of cheesy 80’s music. What we got was the finest caviar! You guys smashed it, smashed it, smashed it. Thank you so much”

We cannot thank you enough, it was a truly magical evening. Please pass on our thanks to the whole band”
Louise & Jay Dorrington - Wedding , Rhinefield House, New Forest“Just a quick note to say a big THANK YOU for the band on Saturday, they were fantastic and exceeded all expectations…. far better than video clips on your website even!! Leanne’s voice was phenominal and everyone commented on how amazing and tight the band were and made complete an amazing weekend for us.
Hopefully you will get some work out of it as well as there were both people getting married in the future and people who have to organise gigs- wouldn’t be surprised if you get a call from The Pyramids in Portsmouth!!

They set up discretely and, when the time came, launched into non-stop music that had the floor full all night. The sound and volume were perfect and the standard of musicianship excellent.

Dr Stephanie Henson, Challenger Dinner – Southampton Guildhall“We just wanted to say a huge thank you for helping make our wedding day special. Everyone commented on how good you were.

We hope to be able to use you again in the future and will certainly recommend you to anyone who did not go to the wedding.”
Darren & Yanna Waters – Wedding, De Vere New Place nr. WickhamAbsolutely! We have been performing at weddings and events for several years and have an infectious live show that guarantees a packed dance floor and a party that you and your guests will remember for years to come! Our repertoire features the biggest classic and current chart hits, so there's certainly something for everyone.
We are happy to perform one special request for you - for weddings this is usually the first dance. You can also let us know your top 10 preferences from the repertoire, as well as send up to 30 requests for the disco - so you can be sure to hear all your favourites on the evening.
60-90 minutes. If you are organising a wedding or event where the evening reception is in the same room as your meal, we often arrive to set-up while the room is turned around - we can have background music playing within around 30 minutes of load in.
At a time to suit your event, standard prices are for 2 hours of live music, any time between 7pm and midnight.
We perform 2 x 60-minute live sets (or 3 x 40 minutes) in the evening and also provide a pre-mixed disco (tailored to your tastes) before and after live sets, so your whole night of entertainment is covered in one booking.
Yes - we can perform a 1 x 60-minute live lounge-style acoustic duo set (female vocals & guitar) as an add-on, which is perfect for during drinks or dinner.
The pre-mixed DJ service is where the band put on a bespoke playlist (you can request up to 30 songs in advance for this) through the PA before and after their live sets. We do this at most events and it works great - the volume of the music would be the same as if you had a DJ.
If you upgrade to the live DJ service, you can still send over preferences in advance, but you will also have a band member selecting and mixing tracks live on the night, as well as taking requests. The DJ will be happy to make important announcements but they will not talk constantly over or between tracks (that's just not our style!). We also think it's important to say that the DJ won't have a separate DJ booth - they will set up in an appropriate space (ideally to the side of the stage) and the PA/lighting will be the same as what is being used by the band.
Yes – all included in the price. You won't have to hire any additional equipment in.
The published guide price range covers our 4 to 6-piece line-up options performing at a venue within 30 miles of our base in Fareham. We charge travel costs for venues further than 30 miles, and if your venue is more than a 2 hours 30 mins drive home, we charge a bit extra so we can book accommodation. For an accurate quote please contact us with your event date and venue details.
Yes, we regularly work at venues with noise limiters. We are happy to contact the venue in advance of the event to make sure we have all the required information to enable us to plan accordingly.
Yes.
Yes, as long as we have three weeks' notice we will learn the first dance of your choice.
We have played in some very small spaces, but ideally a minimum of around 2.5m x 5m.
2 x 13-amp sockets is fine for our system.
Ideally soft drinks and a hot meal or buffet. However, this is certainly not a deal breaker so if you can’t provide this, just let us know in advance and we’ll bring food & drink with us.
As a professional function band our bookings tend to be weddings and private events that unfortunately we are unable to invite guests to. Our videos are a very accurate insight into our look and sound, and we'd also encourage you to check out our testimonials page to see what previous clients have said about their experience with the band.

You really were the perfect wedding band!”
Helen & Jason Marks - Wedding, Thoresby Courtyard, Nottinghamshire“Hi, just wanted to send a quick email to thank The Magic Tones and all involved for such a wonderful show they put on during our wedding last week. Ive always been reluctant to use a "wedding band" as a lot sound similar to what a high school band would (if that makes sense) but you guys sounded amazing and were professional throughout. Myself and Lucy commented on the night how bad we felt not greeting you when you arrived or having much contact but I guess this also shows how professional the band were to get in and set up without any fuss whatsoever. I wish you all the best for the future and hope I get the opportunity to recommend you to any potential parties/weddings.”
Tim & Lucy Plumbe - Wedding, Parley Manor, Dorset“The Magic Tones were the perfect Wedding band. They kept the dance floor full all night and the energy they put into their wonderfully upbeat music didn't dip from 7 to midnight. My husband isn't a dancing fan and even he was spotted more than once having a boogie! Our first dance was a perfect rendition of L-O-V-E (in fact is there any chance of them recording it for us? We are happy to pay for the time it takes and would love to be able to listen back to it). Our father daughter, mother son dance will also always be an amazing memory with the perfect sound! The band timed their sets perfectly to work around food and when people looked like they were starting to flag! They made a fantastic addition to our perfect day and it sounds like a lot of our guests will be future customers!”
Helen Boyd, Wedding, Thereby Courtyard Nottinghamshire“The Magic Tones were absolutely amazing at our wedding! Everyone young and old were up dancing all night, definitely one of the best decisions we made. Couldn't ask for more from the band and would definitely recommend them to anyone.”
Sarah - Wedding, Powderham Castle, Devon“From the outset of planning our big day, we always knew we wanted a live band as it's one of the most important parts of a wedding. Having seen the YouTube videos and song list we were confident that The Magic Tones would be the best fit for our taste in music. Booking the band was really easy and all of the team were extremely helpful at Tailored Entertainment. The band arrived and set up quickly unnoticed by guests. When they started playing we couldn't have been happier! They are the most amazing wedding band we have ever heard (we've been to over 20 weddings)! We can't thank them enough for making our wedding day so special! All of the guests were saying how amazing the band were and a few are hoping to book them later this year! we literally didn't leave the dance floor the whole time the band were playing and all of our song requests were taken on board and played! Not really quite sure how to put into words how thankful we are!”
Mia - Wedding, Taplins Place, Hook“The Magic Tones were completely brilliant. Booking the band couldn’t have been easier and they were very accommodating in our set list requests and timings, including letting the groom surprise everyone by singing a song with the band. Each member of the band was stand-out, from the drummer to the lead singer. This was not lost on our guests who have been raving about them ever since. We’ve been to a lot of weddings in the last few years and the Magic Tones were one of the very best bands we’ve heard. They had everyone on the dancefloor from the first song till the end of the night. We couldn’t recommend them enough.”
Catherine - Wedding, De Vere New Place, Hampshire“For me the Magic Tones were great. Everything I hoped and wished for. Wow! What can I say about how wonderful the band were and how they made my party truly memorable, not just for me but everybody that was there. Having the right entertainment to ensure the party ‘goes with a bang’ is critical and I think it’s fair to say we picked the right band and some!!!!! From the gentle acoustic set, to the ‘let’s get them up and dancing’ set it was all one big resounding success :) The selection of music played from start to finish was perfect and ensured everybody stayed on the dance floor, which is exactly what I wanted. So many of my friends have commented on how wonderful the band were, so not only will they be firmly etched in my memory for years to come, they will also be etched in the memories of many of my friends. I also know that many of my friends on the night thanked the band and told them how great they were, which I’m really pleased about as they richly deserved the praise. Thank you again ‘Magic Tones’ for creating such a brilliant atmosphere and helping to make my party so memorable for so many From my perspective I would also like to thank you for your help and support in arranging this. It has all gone very smoothly and helped make the planning for this event a lot less stressful than it could have been. Very Best Regards”
Tracie & Craig Butt- Birthday Party at a Private Address“The Magic Tones were by far one of the best covers band we have ever seen. Their performance at our wedding was second to none, many of our friends have mentioned to us since the wedding just how amazing the band were and we absolutely agree. The set list and timings worked amazingly well and we're not sure that they would have left the building alive if they hadn't played one more song like they did at the end of the night. It was great to see that the dance floor was never empty. From a personal perspective, how the band fitted with our overall plans and theme for the wedding was seamless. Their set up was very professional and (if we hadn't been to the bar as they were setting up) independent from us - which was exactly what we needed on our big day. They way that the band learnt and then performed our slightly obscure first dance was amazing. Sam and I were blown away by the performance (bearing in mind we have both seen the original artist perform this song a number of times!). Again, Sam and I cannot fault the set list, the pace and the fact that everyone was up and dancing on every song that was played was awesome. They are incredibly talented. We just wish we could re-live it again and again. We cannot thank the band enough!”

Lucinda - Leavers Ball, Portsmouth High School“We had a superb night. The band were brilliant, better than we could have imagined. Please pass on our thanks to the band for taking the trouble to learn Elton John’s Your Song for our first dance. Please also accept out apologies for the evening not running to schedule. A problem unfortunately beyond my control. The band were great in reorganising their set times and we were very grateful for their flexibility. We have since had many many great comments about the band. Thanks once again,”
Alex - Wedding, Rhinefield House Hotel, Brockenhurst“We had a fantastic day and night thank you. The band were outstanding. They played out first dance to perfection. The male vocalist had a great voice and interacted with the crowd really well. The lady singer was incredible. A very talented group and I would highly recommend to anyone. When we told the venue who was performing the staff were excited as they had performed recently and thought they were superb. I hope they got their bacon sandwiches, soft drinks and cake! Many thanks, ”
Catherine - Wedding, Rhinefield House, Brockenhurst“The night was a great success, the band were all set up ready when I arrived, they asked me a few questions before the guests arrived and then started promptly.
They were fantastic and all the guests said how good they were.
Please can you pass on to them my thanks for making a great evening. I would also like to thank them for making such an effort singing Rick Astley - Never gonna give you up!! My favourite song, from my school days!! Please also pass on my apologies for not getting the chance to thank them and say goodbye at the end of the evening.

From the first to the last minute the dance floor was full which I haven't seen that often at weddings, and this is testament to the bands energy and class.
Thank you so much and I'm not sure I need to do much in the way of referral as there are 150 advocates of their work now!”
“Dear Phoebe, In short, the band were amazing! The obscure first dance song that we asked the Magic Tones to learn for us (You're Lovely To Me by Lucky Jim) was performed impeccably with a fantastic male lead vocal and from that point on the energy and enthusiasm of the band was relentless. The song choices of the band meant that the dance floor was jumping during all three of the very enjoyable sets. The vocals from the female lead were exceptional and the band were highly professional throughout the evening. They even allowed some of our more excitable guests to perform some guest vocals towards the end of the night. We have had nothing but positive feedback about the band from our guests and would not hesitate in recommending The Magic Tones to anyone looking for a first rate wedding band. Many thanks,”
David and Katherine - Rhinefield House, Brockenhurst, New Forest“Hi Phoebe, A massive thank you to the band for making our special day complete.

Their energy and sound got almost everyone up dancing and left people wanting more at the end of the night. The vocalist had a beautiful voice and the band blended perfectly together performing an excellent repertoire of songs. The adapted version of our first dance song was excellent. A wedding band will often dictate the evenings entertainment and the Magictones certainly did a fantastic job. Booking through Tailored Entertainment was very easy and they delivered a personal service - Phoebe being particularly helpful and answering any questions we had. We would definitely recommend both the Magictones as a band and also the booking of entertainment through Tailored Entertainment. Many thanks for the excellent sound and service.”

We have had lots of feedback from our guests about how talented they were - many of them said they are the best they have heard at a wedding. We agree! We were really pleased with how the band performed the song for our first dance, and were so happy they took the time to download the unusual songs we had requested to be mixed into the pre-mixed disco. We have had a few people ask who the band were and have made sure to pass your details on to them.
Can you pass our thanks on to the band for making the evening such a wonderful occasion, and for their hard work and energy.
Thank you again for all your help in planning the band’s performance at our wedding.
With kind regards”
“We would like to say a massive thank you for making our wedding evening so special! You played out first dance songs perfectly and got everyone on the dance floor. You really made our day extra special and it's one of the first things people mention when we see them "your band were amazing!" Thank you for going the extra mile.”
Becky & Nick Lovell - Wedding, East Close Hotel Lyndhurst Road, Christchurch, Dorset“The Magic Tones were superb again this year and they really did get the party started at our leavers' ball on Saturday. They are a great band for this sort of event as they have such a wide repertoire and a fantastic sound. The dance floor was full all night!”
Jan - Summer Ball, Portsmouth High School, Southsea, Portsmouth“We had a fabulous night, and just a massive thank you to you and the whole band. Everyone had such an amazing night, and have had so many comments about the band, I think they were surprised at how good they were (of course I already knew that lol) People even commented them in our wedding book! I know I certainly had a great night as I don't think I left the dance floor! My feet certainly hurt in the morning, but totally worth it, the music was just brilliant.”
Katie & Ian - Wedding, Rhinefield House Hotel, Brockenhurst, Hampshire“Please give the band a huge thank-you on my behalf.
The day was perfect and the band did everything that we wanted and more.
We have had lots of positive comments about the band.
They were set up and ready to go on-time, they did the first dance exactly as we had hoped, and they kept the dance floor going from start to finish.
I hope the band also enjoyed the evening and I would have no hesitation in recommending them for any event.”
“We would like to say a very BIG thank you to the Magic Tones. They were absolutely fantastic, so talented, flexible and friendly!!! A lot of people commented on their performance and how fantastic they were. We had such a special day at the Master Builders and the Magic Tones topped it off perfectly. The first dances were performed faultlessly and with fun.
We were more than impressed with Tailored Entertainment on a whole, the friendly, flexible and professional way you dealt with us.
I will be recommending the Magic Tones and Tailored Entertainment to everyone I come across who needs an amazing wedding band. Actually, already one of our guests asked for your details to book them for his wedding instead of the DJ he had organized, that's how impressed he was lol!!Thank you guys so very much for being part and making our special day amazing!!!”
“They were absolutely amazing!! Totally got our guests dancing all night and everyone commented on how great they were!! I would definitely recommend them to anyone!! Thank you for a smooth experience in booking with you.”
Idy Ho - Wedding , Southend Barns, Chichester“Hi Amy, I was just wanting to write to thank the band for such a fantastic performance at our wedding on 29th May at Sopley Mill! They were brilliant, the dance floor was packed from start to finish, and the next day there were a lot of comments from guests about them being the best wedding band people had seen! (I've already been passing on your details to people who would like to book them for future events) Please pass on our thanks to the band, and I would be happy to write a review/use my comments on your website if that would help.”
Jonny and Jo - Wedding , Sopley Mill, Christchurch, Hampshire.“Hi Amy, Thank you very much for both AJ, and The Magic Tones - both were excellent. We had a few people commenting about AJ during the day on his guitar, saying he was very good, and that it was brilliant to have. Very nice guy, and would recommend him to anyone. Think he might have got a little burnt sat in the sun though :) The Magic Tones were superb. Sadly, not as many people danced as we would have liked, but we made up for that the best we could! They were brilliant, and can't thank them enough for learning our first dance, as we know it was a little unusual to the "normal" choices. They played it (and she sang it) amazingly. We spoke to the singer (sorry, I can't remember her name) a few times and she was lovely, and very keen to make sure we were happy. I think half way through the second set, they realised the rocky-er songs got people dancing (which she said after was odd, as it's usually the cheesy stuff) so changed there set around which was brilliant. The band were great, and she was brilliant - we couldn't recommend these guys enough and rave about her vocals to everyone. Thank you very much!”
Jon and Kerry Cummings - Wedding , Elmers Court Hotel, Hampshire.“The band were absolutely amazing, they kept the party going all night, the dance floor was always full!we just thought they were phenomenal so a big thank you to them.

Will Bowers - Wedding , Bocconoc, Cornwall“Dear Nick, Georg and I wanted to write to you and the other members of The Magic Tones to thank you once more for playing for us on Saturday. In case it wasn’t clear by the over loaded, sweat laiden dance floor, our guests adored you. 2 local friends planning their weddings for next year were disappointed they had already booked different bands as they would have booked you if they had had the chance. One friend who is a guitarist was very impressed how you managed to come into Mr Brightside from the unusual mix we had as our first dance. The party really got started when you guys started playing and the atmosphere was electric. Our fond memories of our perhaps quirky wedding will be of standing in the middle of a pulsating dance floor, surrounded by happy faces singing along. We shall continue spreading the word in Salisbury about the band. Thanks for playing for us.”

To hear people genuinely begging for more was testament to how fantastic you were. I had my doubts when we booked, I had visions of cheesy 80’s music. What we got was the finest caviar! You guys smashed it, smashed it, smashed it. Thank you so much”

Louise & Jay Dorrington - Wedding , Rhinefield House, New Forest“Just a quick note to say a big THANK YOU for the band on Saturday, they were fantastic and exceeded all expectations…. far better than video clips on your website even!!

They set up discretely and, when the time came, launched into non-stop music that had the floor full all night. The sound and volume were perfect and the standard of musicianship excellent.

We hope to be able to use you again in the future and will certainly recommend you to anyone who did not go to the wedding.”
Darren & Yanna Waters – Wedding, De Vere New Place nr. WickhamAbsolutely! We have been performing at weddings and events for several years and have an infectious live show that guarantees a packed dance floor and a party that you and your guests will remember for years to come! Our repertoire features the biggest classic and current chart hits, so there's certainly something for everyone.
We are happy to perform one special request for you - for weddings this is usually the first dance. You can also let us know your top 10 preferences from the repertoire, as well as send up to 30 requests for the disco - so you can be sure to hear all your favourites on the evening.
60-90 minutes. If you are organising a wedding or event where the evening reception is in the same room as your meal, we often arrive to set-up while the room is turned around - we can have background music playing within around 30 minutes of load in.
At a time to suit your event, standard prices are for 2 hours of live music, any time between 7pm and midnight.
We perform 2 x 60-minute live sets (or 3 x 40 minutes) in the evening and also provide a pre-mixed disco (tailored to your tastes) before and after live sets, so your whole night of entertainment is covered in one booking.
Yes - we can perform a 1 x 60-minute live lounge-style acoustic duo set (female vocals & guitar) as an add-on, which is perfect for during drinks or dinner.
The pre-mixed DJ service is where the band put on a bespoke playlist (you can request up to 30 songs in advance for this) through the PA before and after their live sets. We do this at most events and it works great - the volume of the music would be the same as if you had a DJ.
If you upgrade to the live DJ service, you can still send over preferences in advance, but you will also have a band member selecting and mixing tracks live on the night, as well as taking requests. The DJ will be happy to make important announcements but they will not talk constantly over or between tracks (that's just not our style!). We also think it's important to say that the DJ won't have a separate DJ booth - they will set up in an appropriate space (ideally to the side of the stage) and the PA/lighting will be the same as what is being used by the band.
Yes – all included in the price. You won't have to hire any additional equipment in.
The published guide price range covers our 4 to 6-piece line-up options performing at a venue within 30 miles of our base in Fareham. We charge travel costs for venues further than 30 miles, and if your venue is more than a 2 hours 30 mins drive home, we charge a bit extra so we can book accommodation. For an accurate quote please contact us with your event date and venue details.
Yes, we regularly work at venues with noise limiters. We are happy to contact the venue in advance of the event to make sure we have all the required information to enable us to plan accordingly.
Yes.
Yes, as long as we have three weeks' notice we will learn the first dance of your choice.
We have played in some very small spaces, but ideally a minimum of around 2.5m x 5m.
2 x 13-amp sockets is fine for our system.
Ideally soft drinks and a hot meal or buffet. However, this is certainly not a deal breaker so if you can’t provide this, just let us know in advance and we’ll bring food & drink with us.
As a professional function band our bookings tend to be weddings and private events that unfortunately we are unable to invite guests to. Our videos are a very accurate insight into our look and sound, and we'd also encourage you to check out our testimonials page to see what previous clients have said about their experience with the band.
For a friendly chat about your live music requirements, please give us a call, email or message via the contact form and we'll be back to you shortly. Our team of entertainment experts are ready to help and will be delighted to hear from you.
