Corporate Event, London, 7 Jul 2017

The event went very well thank you.  The guests all thoroughly enjoyed themselves and Alexander's Ragtime Band did a fine job of creating atmosphere - thank you.

Wedding Reception, Leicestershire, 2 Jul 2017

Spectacular performance from a wonderful band, flexible with our song requests and were able to play our first dance from a song not originally on their song list! One of the best decisions we made was to hire them! The led singer was sensational, the band were great, professional and fun! They got everyone up and dancing, and we couldn’t have asked for more!

Hi Mike,
Sorry for the vast delay in getting back to you.  As you might imagine the weekend was a very enjoyable roller coaster, and then we were away a few days and are only just getting back to reality.
The band were great, everyone really enjoyed the sets and I really enjoyed meeting all the members of the group.  They were fantastic musicians and really helped to make it a memorable evening.
Thanks again for being so accommodating in the run up to the wedding.
All the very best.

Birthday Party, Windsor, Berkshire, 11 Jun 2017

Alexander's Ragtime Band providing live music at a birthday party in Windsor, Berkshire Hi Mike, The sun came out and Alexander's Ragtime Band went down very well indeed. The background type music suited the lazy summer afternoon event and was exactly what we wanted. Many guests mentioned how accomplished the musicians were and I wouldn’t be surprised if we get asked for a referral in the future – in which case I’ll forward them on! Thanks again. Keith & Lynne

Wedding Reception, Pinewood Studios, Buckinghamshire, 19 May 2017

Mike Paul-Smith Music went over and above what I would have expected. They arrived early at the venue and stayed later than was expected to ensure we had music for longer. Their music was second to none and all my guests thoroughly enjoyed the breadth of music they played (which varied from light background music during the wedding meal to a lively band in the evening, with a perfect rendition of Dream a Little Dream for my first dance). They really did make my wedding day memorable and special, my wedding day wouldn’t have been the same without the band there.

Hi Mike, Hope you had a good weekend. Just wanted to say thank you so much for everything on Friday, I think it went down really well and a lot of people were raving about you guys. I might be putting on another event in the summer , will be in touch if we do! Best wishes.

Private Party, North Cadbury Court, Somerset, 26 Nov 2016

Dear Mike, I know I thanked you on the night but just wanted to do so again in the cold light of day. You and your band were fantastic, not just brilliant at the music but also lovely, helpful and a total pleasure to work with. Thank you so much and please pass my thanks on to your team. My Mother literally had the party of her life and you were a big part of that.... you were exceptional.

Charity Ball, Supernova, London, 19 Nov 2016

Thank you so much for your performance on Saturday – you guys were fantastic! And I’ve had such great feedback from our guests too. It’s been a pleasure to work with you and if it’s ok I will keep you in mind for any future events we may have!

Charity Ball, Wentworth Golf Club, Berkshire, 18 Nov 2016

Everything went great thank you. As these things often go, we didn't run to time exactly as planned so I really appreciated the band's flexibility and going with the flow.

They did a marvellous job, were the perfect addition to the event and I've heard only good feedback about them.

So thank you very much! It's a bit of a guide at the moment but it looks like we raised a total of £45,000 from the event which is absolutely fantastic. We're thrilled of course. Thank you for supporting the event and helping us make sure as much of that as possible is going towards our patient care services.

Kind regards.

Charity Ball, Grange St Paul's Hotel, London, 12 Nov 2016

What a fantastic band! We booked The Get Downs for a Charity Gala Ball, and what a wonderful addition to the event they were. All our guests made for the dance floor and were thoroughly entertained and I can't recommend them highly enough. Delightful people and they certainly add value to your event!

Morning Mike, Thank you and your band mates for a fantastic gig yesterday. You were absolutely brilliant and everyone really enjoyed watching and listening to you all. Would happily rebook you for any new parties in the future. Best wishes.

Thanks so much for a great evening. I thought the band were fabulous and we all had a really fun time dancing to their music. The lead singer's voice was very beautiful and everyone complimented the band all night.
