We had a blast!

We had a blast!! Our guests had a blast!!
It could not have been any better.

Everyone ran out of superlatives to describe the atmosphere and experience created by the band at our daughter’s wedding.
Phenomenal has been repeated numerous times from so many of our guests, and even that does not seem adequate.

The band is so integral to how the evening plays out, and ours was epic!!

It was truly wonderful and the crowd rocked the entire evening.

Can not recommend highly enough!!

The best review I can leave here is a copy of the email I sent to XS Showband after our daughters perfect wedding:

Please do pass on to your entire band and support team who helped make Harriet and Sam's wedding day the most spectacular event that everyone will be talking about for YEARS !!

SO many people telling me WHERE DID YOU FIND THAT BAND !!

You were so superb to work with, and rely upon.

The Church content was utterly beautiful

I cannot thank you enough.

I hope we did Norfolk proud with our enthusiasm on the dance floor.

THE MOST AMAZING BAND

I will just sum up our experience of having XS at our daughter’s wedding in just a few words:

40th birthday party - excellent!! …

Fran organised my husbands 40th birthday seamlessly! I did not have to think on the night and we were both able to relax knowing the party was in safe hands with Fran and her team there. Live music, DJ, marquee and food all taken care of by her! I couldn’t recommend them enough and am so glad we used them!! Five stars!!

Amazing wedding band

We had XS Showband for our wedding this weekend and couldn’t recommend them enough. They got the party started from the very moment they started playing. They were super professional and organised in the build-up and then on the day they were seamless. We and all of our guests were blown away. They are such talented musicians and full of energy and fun. They worked with us to create the most amazing first dance, and memories that we will have forever. Huge thank you to the band and the team for everything. Jed and Ellen xxx

XS Showband are absolutely amazing! We are so so so grateful to Francesca and the team as they really did make our wedding and it absolutely would not have been the same without them! Francesca was so lovely to deal with and the band have so much experience and are so talented you feel in such safe hands. If you are undecided on whether to use XS Show band my advice would be to 100% go for it, you will not regret it!

Wow wow wow!

Dear Fran and Nikki

Wow wow wow!! What an amazing day we all had on Sunday, and we honestly couldn’t have done it without you both steering us, guiding us, directing us, calming us, organising us, managing us and smiling all the way through it. Thank you both for your unfailing good humour and calm presence throughout. Nothing was too much trouble, everything was seamless to our guests, and any minor (and normal I hope!) behind the scenes tensions were diffused by you both like ripples in the sand.

Please also thank all your fabulous musicians for us - firstly Guy whose incredible voice lifted the ceremony (and Israeli dancing of course!) to a new level - we were all enthralled by his melodies and our guests were blown away too.

Then the fabulous XS Showband, who sounded amazing and created the most stunning party atmosphere, read the room perfectly, and drew everyone in from start to finish. We wished it could have gone on all night! Thank you to them all - Johnny, Trevor, Katy, Eloise, Charlie, Sameer, Paul, George, Karen, Chris - and our DJ Dre who carried the party forward seamlessly despite the lack of percussion in the end thanks to the Brewery’s frustrating rules - never mind - no one noticed and we just carried on partying!

We are honestly so grateful to you for your absolutely invaluable input, which created the most stunning day and memories that will last a lifetime.

Also just to mention the month’s run up to the day, when you took over at 100 miles an hour from the moment the countdown started, and kept us on our toes and feeling totally heard and in control all the way to the big day. We couldn’t have been happier with our decision to bring you on board in the weeks before.

We are all still buzzing! I hope you both managed to have a much earned day off on Monday!

Amazing job - thank you thank you, we hope our paths cross again soon - I’m sure they will!

Wishing XS the very best for a magnificent future - and please, never lose sight of your USP - the personal touch - however big you become!!

an amazing wedding band!

I recently attended a wedding where XS SHOWBAND was playing and I have to say, they were amazing! As soon as they started playing, everyone was up and dancing, and it was clear that the band knew how to keep the party going.

The sound quality was fantastic, and the lighting really added to the overall experience. The lead vocalist had an incredible voice, and the musicianship of the entire band was top-notch.

Unforgettable wedding band

We had hired the band for our wedding outside London. They were fenomonal and attributed so much to a fantastic day. We liked how they performed reading the situation, with different types of music for sit down vs evening party - and if you have a particular taste they leave that up to you to indicate. We loved it, and more important our guests loved them and had the most fantastic day, coming from abroad to be wonderfully entertained during our most special day. Thank you so much Fran & Ziek and the whole band.

XS rocks!

So I am at a mate’s wedding. Sitting there waiting for the Rabi to start the ceremony and suddenly just like in the movies , a band pops out of the audience one by one and start playing.
That is the coolest move I have seen by a couple in a wedding.
Needless to say the band later continued rocking the evening through till everyone weee basically exhausted from dancing and having fun.
XS show band Rock!!!

XS…You are the best!

I don’t ever write reviews but XS totally deserve it!
Planning a wedding is very stressful and I was moving house at the same time so stress levels were high!!
Francesca was incredible from start to finish. Her attention to detail, her communication was just incredible.
She took every bit of stress out of it and made it so enjoyable.
The band were incredible. I’ve seen them as a guest twice and I was keen to make sure they did something different at ours. I need not of worried, It was totally bespoke to me and my new husband!! We had songs of our choice, the band learnt a couple of new ones for us, they even arranged a song for my brother to be on stage as he plays the drums and he wanted to surprise us by being involved.
The whole team at XS are just top class, book them, it will be the best investment you make.
