"If you do one thing in this lifetime, book this band" - If you do one thing in this lifetime, book this band, if you have no money, take to violent crime, because if you want to have a party then you can A) put a DJ on and finger dance or B ) book this band and have an amazing time and get everyone dancing. Junction 2 played at my wedding this year and made the night, well actually my wife did later on but up until that point they were No1 in my book. Book them book them book them.

"Everyone had a lot of fun, and the band were a huge success." - Just wanted to say a big thank you for helping to make our bash. Everyone had a lot of fun, and the band were a huge success. The variety of music you guys played suited the differing age ranges and tastes among us, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment. Thanks again, we wish you success in the future, and would love to hear you play at any other events we organize, Best wishes. James & Terry.

"I couldn't get onto the dance floor at times as it was so packed!!" - Thank you so much for everything that you and the band did on the wedding day. You were all absolutely fantastic and I have to say, I couldn't get onto the dance floor at times as it was so packed!! Everyone commented on how great the band was and I know for a fact another couple that are getting married have enquired about you. We went to a wedding at Mallory a few months ago and there were many of the same guests so I was desperate for our wedding to be different, having you there made sure of that. Anyway, I could go on and on. Thank you so much for helping to make our day so special!! Love, Adam and Krystal (Mr and Mrs Irwin!!)

"You really made our wedding day" - Just a small email to say an absolutely massive thank you for playing such wonderful sets at our wedding yesterday. We thought you were amazing - and so many of our guests have commented about how great they thought you were too. I think the crowded dance floor and wolf whistles throughout said it all! You really made our wedding day. Many thanks again, and best of best wishes. Liz and Paul (Mr and Mrs Taylor!) xx

"If anyone out there is in two minds about booking Junction 2, take it from me - book them!" - There are certain things that can make or break an occasion and Junction 2 certainly did not disappoint to make it for us on our special day! Absolutely superb! People have not stopped talking about what a great band you are! If anyone out there is in two minds about booking Junction 2, take it from me - book them We just want to say thank you to each and everyone of you, the music and entertainment was incredible better than we could have hoped for. Thank you once again! Love Lee and Ali Parker (14th August 2009) 

"We will not hesitate to recommend you!" - Thank you all for a fantastic night! We will not hesitate to recommend you! Thanks again! love Sarah & Andy xxx

"I doubt there is a better function band out there" - We went to see Junction 2 do one of their public appearances and knew immediately we wanted them for our wedding. They have a fantastic repertoire to appeal to all ages and are all obviously excellent musicians. The dance floor was packed all night, and the band were very flexible to fit in with our requirements and timings. I doubt there is a better function band out there; our guests could not believe how good you guys were.

"They definitely stand out amongst other soul bands we have seen!" - Fab band, great gig on new year's eve - they definitely stand out amongst other soul bands we have seen! brilliant! Danced all night!! Hope to see you again. The Foxes (Nick, Steve and Teri Fox) at Wroxall Abbey Estate - New Year's Eve 2008.

"Brilliant! ... The mix of music was spot on" - Brilliant!  The band played at our wedding reception on August 2nd and they were amazing, I lost count of how many people said how good they were.  The mix of music was spot on - it must have been because the dance floor was full for the entire set!  Thanks again, guys. Love Sarah and Edd xx

"I seriously cannot recommend these guys enough. They will make your
 night fantastic!" - They are approachable, polite, accommodating with our requests prior to the wedding, even singing our rewritten version of our first dance. All of our guests commented on what a great set they played and there wasn’t anyone that resisted the temptation to hit the dance floor. A massive thank you to each band member. I seriously cannot recommend these guys enough. They will make your night fantastic!

"They were polite & friendly, extremely professional" - Junction 2 arrived early and were very well organized. They were polite & friendly, extremely professional. Regarding their performance, they exceeded our expectations!

"The dance floor was packed all evening and everyone was dancing from the first song" -
 The band were absolutely great, we were so, so pleased - beyond our expectations and everyone there of all ages has commented how entertaining and fun the music and performance was. The song choice was a great mix with some current and some older stuff. The band helped with providing a great atmosphere and did exactly as they were asked with a really great attitude. Know a couple of guests have already recommended you to other people so that is enough evidence for me! The dance floor was packed all evening and everyone was dancing from the first song. Beyond that all our dealings with you were really helpful, professional and you took the stress out of wedding planning. Would not hesitate to book you again and would love you to be at every wedding we go to.

In the 1990s, blues performers explored a range of musical genres, as can be seen, for example, from the broad array of nominees of the yearly Blues Music Awards, previously named W. C. Handy Awards[119] or of the Grammy Awards for Best Contemporary and Traditional Blues Album. Contemporary blues music is nurtured by several blues labels such as: Alligator Records, Ruf Records, Chess Records (MCA), Delmark Records, NorthernBlues Music, and Vanguard Records (Artemis Records). Some labels are famous for their rediscovering and remastering of blues rarities such as Arhoolie Records, Smithsonian Folkways Recordings (heir of Folkways Records) and Yazoo Records (Shanachie Records).
