Recent Testimonials
Elastic Lounge brought a fantastic band to our launch party at Caffè Rojano in Padstow. They were incredibly easy to work with and gave a great performance which really got our party going. We’d definitely hire them again. Elastic Lounge was brilliant at organising some entertainment for our wedding. Tim was able to discuss with us what we wanted and put us a band together at short notice. The band was fantastic and really accommodating to all our needs – played our requested first dance song beautifully. Lots of guests commented on how good the band were. Would recommend! We have just had the absolute pleasure of having Licence to Swing play at our 10th wedding anniversary party. Our theme was Great Gatsby and I wanted a band that could really get my guests dancing in true 1920’s style and Licence to Swing did not disappoint. Not only were the band amazing but the DJ played the best songs before, during and after the band to keep the party going. And I can’t thank Tim enough for not only making the booking and organising process so simple but for happily offering his advice, expertise and understanding meaning me, my family and all my guests really did have the most wonderful evening. I would highly recommend Elastic Lounge Entertainment Agency and Licence to Swing without a second thought! From the first phone call right to the very end, Tim has been absolutely amazing! Living 6 hours from our wedding venue meant we needed to put our trust in many different suppliers- and we completely trusted Tim – he listened and reassured and then delivered way beyond our expectations! Our entertainment was amazing! And all our guests have commented too! Music is such a big part of a wedding day! And it has created such amazing memories! Thank you! I wish I could book you again! Thank you so much for supplying Night and Day for our Christmas events across the South West. The musicians and singer were outstanding and provided beautiful background entertainment for arrivals and during dinner. Many of our partner’sand stakeholders have contacted us since the event asking for your details so they can book you for their events. We will definitely be booking the group again for future events in 2020 thank you so much! Thank you for last night we have had some great feedback as expected…can I book you in for 2020? The Peaky Blinders were amazing from start to finish. The band created such a great vintage party atmosphere and the dance floor was packed all night. We never expected such a big sound from such a small band and people haven’t stopped talking about the night. We will definitely be booking you again and will also recommend you for future events. “Thank you so much we will definitely be in touch for future events”. “Taxi, train, ferry, boat , walk and that was just for the band to get to the venue! All of the band were excellent , nothing too much trouble and able to gauge an audience in their expansive song list, acoustics, instruments and sound levels. You are a credit to your industry, we will definitely be booking again!” West End Duo performed at our wedding recently and they were absolutely fantastic. They provided background music for our drinks reception & also learnt a song for our ceremony. Total professionals from start to finish and they really added a touch of class to our wedding in Cornwall. Many guests commented on how great they were and one even asked for their contact details to book them for an event. What a wonderful act to find, they made our day extra special.
