"Northern Heroes were fabulous from start to finish. We have had so many compliments on the band, and how much they added to the wedding. The dance floor was packed, due to the varied song choices, getting old and young up to dance. Thank you for making it a truly unforgettable evening. We can't praise you enough!"
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"OMG! You guys were brilliant, the songs you played were perfect and everyone loved it. You made our night and so glad we booked you. Thanks so much, Alex and Curtis."
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"Hi FixTheMusic team, Thanks again for helping us find Northern Heroes for our wedding. They did a great job - here's a review. Northern Heroes played at our wedding. We had great communication from Mark from the start - really clear, speedy responses, and a pleasure to deal with. On the day they arrived in good time, were just as lovely in person as they had been over email, and had everything in hand. They played two brilliant sets that had everyone up and dancing - really high energy and plenty of crowd-pleasers. We'd recommend Northern Heroes to anyone looking for a fun, professional wedding band."
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"Fantastic! Positive comments from everyone - got people of all ages up dancing from teens to those in their 80s! Good range and choice of music suited to the wide range of tastes and ages."
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"We had a great evening with Northern Heroes to celebrate a 50th Birthday and our 25th Wedding Anniversary. We had a marquee in the garden and the band played 2 sets for one hour each, from 8.15pm and one from 10.15pm. The band were all dressed smartly with matching shirt, tie and waistcoats. I was a bit conscious about the level of noise so as not to disturb the neighbours but the band were very reassuring and accommodating in that regard. We had great communication with Mark from the band. They played a mixture of old and new songs which went down well with a mixed audience of teenagers and middle aged folk like us. They even played some requests that we asked they to do, one for my daughter and one for my wife. They made the event very personal for us. I think the sign of a successful gig depends on how people get on the dance floor. The dance floor was filled with 16/17 year olds and the 40/50 year olds at the same time. My son and daughter want to do it all over again for their 18th and 21st, which I think that means they approved too! It took me 12 months to plan the party and the band were a big piece of the jigsaw. They lived up to and went beyond my hopes and expectations. I’d love to do it all over again. Thanks guys it was a blast."
