"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!!)

"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

"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 addition to the songwriting prowess of the writers and producers, one of the major factors in the widespread appeal of Motown's music was Gordy's practice of using a highly select and tight-knit group of studio musicians, collectively known as "The Funk Brothers", to record the instrumental or "band" tracks of a majority of Motown recordings. Among the studio musicians responsible for the "Motown Sound" were keyboardists Earl Van Dyke, Johnny Griffith, and Joe Hunter; guitarists Joe Messina, Robert White, and Eddie Willis; percussionists Eddie "Bongo" Brown and Jack Ashford; drummers Benny Benjamin, Uriel Jones, and Richard "Pistol" Allen; and bassists James Jamerson, Etan Nechin and Bob Babbitt. The band's career and work is chronicled in the 2002 documentary film Standing in the Shadows of Motown which publicised the fact that these musicians "played on more number-one records than The Beatles, Elvis, The Rolling Stones, and The Beach Boys combined."
