Firstly, yes I am in a full time professional wedding band, and no I'm not going to tell you which one, I'm not here to plug :rolleyes:
Folks, every one's taste in music is different so if someone recommends a band, great, but go and see them yourself.
I would like to ask people not to dish bands on here, times are tough for everyone so please don't take the bread out of someone's mouth by possibly loosing them a booking just because you didn't like the band on the night. A bad ref here can cost a band numerous bookings
The original poster wanted "recommendations", so be nice and just recommend good bands, the poster (and others) can make up their own mind when they go to see them.

P.S. It's really obvious when someone is plugging their own band lads

Have a nice day

Lebowski are one to consider, excellent band and good to deal with.

The Unusual Suspects are another one to consider, depends on what kind of music your looking for really. The best advice I can give you is to go see a few of the bands play and see which you think is going to fit your requirements best.

Often meeting and discussing set lists etc can get you a good feel for whether you want the band or not.

And again, it depends on your budget for the music. Certain bands are too high priced imo, wont name names, and others are more realistic and have generated good business for themselves along with good will for being reasonable.

I know I would be more inclined to recommend a band who were sound to deal with, reasonably priced and had the place dancing rather then the band who were double the price but did the same thing!

Think most people would be the same, everybody has to think of value for money in these times

You're from Donegal, you're looking for an English speaking wedding band in the south of France, and you're asking this in the Waterford forum

Remember going to a wedding a few years back and there was an excellent band... can't think of the name but one of the members was called Matt.
