non cheesy wedding band

gengi1000

Hi there
I'm looking for suggestions for a wedding band for September next year. We want a group of proper musicians who will pay a good mix but not cheesy songs like summer of 69 etc. We loved the sound of the hit men trio but they are sadly not available so any suggestions for a group along the lines of them would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I got married at the start of August and hired Soul Driven from cork to play. We requested no typical wedding cheese but plenty of jazz funk and soul. They are a very tight, slick band. Absolutely loved them. There are a few youtube videos of their performances but they really don't do them justice. Totally worth the money.

The lols.
they did the macra rally last October in Carlow.
they were absolutely fantastic! they did everything! At one stage we thought the dj had started but it was actually the singer. He was so versatile,could sing anything. they do weddings too.
I couldn't do them justice here.
definitely worth checking out

PM if you want their contact details.

Another vote for Converse Allstars...they play a fair bit in pubs around Galway.. Well worth checking them out
