“ Fantastic night. The band were brilliant and worth every penny!"...Joanna Humphries,

North Fulham Business Awards - The Queens Club W14, Monday 31st March 2008


"Bare Groove played for a fundraising event myself and a friend organised, playing to an audience of about 150 people. They were incredibly open to suggestions, allowed us to attend rehearsals, and kept us very involved so that they provided for us exactly the kind of set we wanted.


Their performance was five star and Louise's voice is so versatile, as is Matt's. The brass section are fantastic! As a band they just mesh so well together, and make songs their own seemingly effortlessly.


They are without a doubt the best live covers band I have come across, as well as being generally lovely people who will care about making your event a success. I would recommend them to anyone” Christina Hough, BOB

Wedding - Woldingham, Surrey, Thursday 31st  July 2008


“The day was just perfect and followed by an evening of just utterly brilliant music provided by the one and only Bare Groove. Not your typical band by a long shot, they are professional musicians with a brass touch! From the first email to post wedding chat these guys have been professional, highly accommodating and fantastic. Their repertoire is extensive although they were more than happy to learn a couple of new songs just for us. I only wish we had more celebrations lined up cos i wouldn’t hesitate in using them again. Should you need a band, weather its for a wedding birthday or party, these guys are guaranteed to raise the roof!” Paul and Ellie Wahba
