Blue Lion Band Reviews 

From the first moment to the last, this band were incredible. We went all out with an 11 piece and we are so glad we did. All band members were high energy and enthusiastic. They played the music we love and even learned some special songs for us as well as our unusual first dance. The brass section had some cool dance moved and at one point were even playing whilst jumping up and down! I mean, how do you even do that!? Our guests haven't stopped raving about them. Highly recommended.

We recently had the Blue Lion Band at our wedding. I cannot overstate the supreme quality of their music, their utmost professionalism, their unbelievable value for money, or the incredible atmosphere they provided. I can honestly say that they were the most important single piece of the puzzle that day , and easily the most memorable to our guests. Dessie was the absolutely lovely gentleman we interacted with as our point of contact. We were very tight for time but he never made us feel that we were putting him under pressure. I asked him to help me with a surprise for my wife and her did it gladly. In fact, I was shocked on the day to see that Dessie was an incredible drummer and vocalist, and his performance for our surprise song gave us all goosebumps. We were just so happy with the vocalists and instrumentalists and we will never ever forget these guys. We are very grateful to them and always will be. Hire this band if you want professional but easy going individuals who can really get the party started but also provide whatever atmosphere or vibe you want. You will not regret hiring the Blue Lion Band.

People who have never danced in their lives couldn't resist getting on the dance-floor for Blue Lion Band at our wedding! They were sensational. Brilliantly talented musicians, sequenced the sets and tunes for maximum energy, and supremely organised in the run-up. Our guests were raving! Many, many thanks.

Fantastic band -- we hired them for our wedding reception and couldn't have been happier with the experience. From answering our pre-event questions, to curating timings and playlists to suit our vision, through to the actual execution, the band (& Cici in particular) were brilliant throughout. Would highly recommend, and hire again for any future events we required entertainment for!

Blue Lion Band performed at our wedding in March and we couldn't have been any happier with how it went. The communication in the lead up to the day was great and they really took the time to understand our likes and dislikes. The dancefloor was full from their first doing to their last and we had loads of guests come up to us on the night to say how great the band were. We would highly recommend!!

We used The Blue Lion Band for our wedding in Feb 2020. Everything was so easy in the lead up to the big day. Letting them know our preferences in music, Dessie and the rest of the team absolutely smashed it. Everyone loved the band and we’ve received so many compliments, even from our venue! If you’re after a brilliant live band for your event, these guys should be first on your list. Would and have recommended to anyone who is looking for a live band.

Such an amazing company!
The planning was made easy and stress free by our excellent consultants! They were knowledgeable and supportive.
The band was amazing on the evening of our wedding! Played songs to keep everyone dancing! All our family commented on how amazing the band was!
Fantastic value for money and a hugely talented band!
I would recommend to anyone who wants a fabulous band and a stress free planning process!

Blue Lion Band were the perfect accompaniment to our wedding celebration. They are very flexible in terms on size, and were able to provide an 8 piece band without any issues. The music choices were fantastic and we really enjoyed every song. Our guests loved them.

If you’re serious about the live music offering in your event, these are the guys you need. They are nothing but 100% professional throughout the entire process, from their very first interaction with you all the way through to the end of your event. We were hooked from the first song we heard them play at one of their rehearsal sessions. Being a musician myself I’m very fussy when it comes to music at events (bad sound / too noisy, dodgy covers, poor musicianship etc) but I knew we could have complete confidence in Blue Lion - they have an abundance of raw talent and musicianship, and crucially they back this up with professionalism, logistical management, excellent customer service and communications.
The dance floor at our wedding was packed for the entire evening -Blue Lion definitely know how to please a crowd. Without Blue Lion our wedding day would not have been as memorable and enjoyable as it was. I’m already trying to think of other excuses to hire them (not another wedding, obviously!)

The band was great. We couldn't wish for a a better night. I was on the dance floor all night.

Well what can I say about Blue Lion Band except they made our wedding! They got pretty much everyone on the dance floor, played some absolute classics, played and sang incredibly, livened the atmosphere and made everyone smile. I cannot recommend them enough for any event, they are worth every penny and I hope to be seeing them again in the future!

I cannot rate this band any higher. Their professionalism, musicianship and performance were outstanding.

Their manager was always in contact during the run up to our wedding, making sure that everything was going to plan.

As a musician myself, I couldn’t rate the band any higher.

5*

Couldn't have asked for a better band, they were absolutely worth every penny and were totally incredible. I asked for mainly Motown and 60's and they played a brilliant mix. One month on from my wedding and everyone who was there are still talking about them! Would 110% recommend as everything was brilliant from enquiry to on the day to after my wedding.

The Blue Lion Band were absolutley fantastic, creating a tailored playlist around our musical likes spanning a range of genres and artists easily and seamlessly. The quality of music making was extremely high with every single musician on stage adding their own magic to the performance. (Several moments of sheer awe at these players!) The energy was infectious and there was not one moment when the band was playing that I was not on the dance floor. They were adaptive with their timings (as speeches ran over) and provided and evening of music we will never forget, it truly was the icing on the cake of a perfect day.
(As a musician myself it was very important to have great quality and musicality, and I could not be happier. )

The best party band we've had!
My husbands 50th birthday bash was a great success and everybody young and old enjoyed the music.

Hey Ed!
Wow can't believe 3 weeks have passed by already since our wedding! We've just returned from our totally amazing honeymoon!
We just wanted to say the most ENORMOUS Thank You ever, for the totally epic Band/Music at our wedding reception!!
The dance floor was never empty (and we even spied a few 'non' dancers up there!)
Literally everyone has commented on how amazing you were and that they had soo much fun celebrating with us dancing the night away!!
We’ve already had a few friends asking for your details...so you could be returning to Cornwall again one day!
You've been amazing from start to finish, fantastic communication and service, nothing has been too much trouble!! (Even my late night/essay style texts!)
Thank you, thank you and thank you again!!
We are so so happy we chose Blue Lion Band!!
Much love

The band were literally unbelievable. We had so many positive comments & the dance floor was full throughout the whole night. Even a year later people are still asking who are band were.

We first spotted The Blue Lion Band at the National Wedding Fair in London, we were struggling to find a good band for our wedding. We listened with headphones to some of their covers on their stall and we were hooked.

We then went to one of their London showcases, which I would definitely recommend. And we knew then that we definitely wanted them.

We got married in Cambridgeshire so we had members from the Cambridge group play at our wedding. You could select the size of band you wanted which is great for tailoring it for your requirements.

The online planning sheet was excellent, providing the band with all information they need about the wedding day and it allowed you to talk through logistics with them. This was especially important as they were playing in a marquee in a field.

Everything was brilliant and the band were everything we wanted! :-) It has to be one of the best parts of our wedding day seeing our dance floor packed the whole night.

We hired the Blue Lion Band to play at our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made. We went to see them live first--which I would definitely recommend to anyone considering them--and can only say were were blown away by their professionalism, sense of fun, and cracking song selection. They play so many different kinds of music so well, and are so adaptable to how many musicians you want/what kind of music you are looking for. They made the planning really easy, and our day was much better than it would have been without them; again, hiring them was definitely one of the easier and smarter decisions we made for the wedding. We have gotten so many compliments on the band from guests, both on the day and in the weeks since the wedding--and I think they are a great value, too. Definitely worth every penny of the extra cost over hiring a DJ; there is no comparison.

If you are looking for a great band for your event, definitely give these guys a try. They are brilliant.

We cannot thank you all enough for the unbelievable afternoon set and night of music you guys supplied for us all. I have worked at about 50 weddings in a past career and been to about 10 others and genuinely have never heard a band that good and never seen a dance floor that full for the entirety of the band's sets. It was even fairly full for the breaks too so good choices on the laptop!

All of the musicians were so friendly, happy and seemed like they were enjoying themselves which I really hope they were.

Dessie and his team really did us proud and I cannot recommend them highly enough. So many of our guests have commented since on how superb the band were.

Thanks guys. We will be coming to watch your showcases in the future just to enjoy your music - it's that good. If we ever need a band again you will be first port of call hands down!

Simply amazing.
From the moment I made the initial enquiry with Neil, to the performance of the 7 piece band at our wedding, everything was simple, smoothly organised and the most stress free part of the wedding.
The band were amazing on the night and the dancefloor was full!
We have had so many amazing comments from guests about how good they were.
All I can say is don't hesitate, just book. You wont be disappointed. They made our day memorable
