[The live sets you played] were absolutely FANTASTIC. Song choices and orders were spot on, and we had an incredible time. You and the band were a large part of what was a day long in the making, but ended up turning out better than we could have hoped for, so I just wanted to let you know how lucky we feel to have been able to book you.

We just wanted to say another big thanks to you and the band for helping to make Saturday even more special – as I said at the time, one of the guests told me “booking this band was the best decision anyone has ever made, ever.” And he insisted he wasn’t exaggerating!

We were SO excited for FCB to play our wedding and they did not disappoint! They were great throughout the entire booking process, moved our date when our original was cancelled, were patient when we were late and most importantly sounded amazing! The summer terrace vibes were exactly what we wanted and all our guests loved them. Would 100% recommend, going to be on that terrace listening to this tunes in my head forever!

Just to say a massive thank you to Flat Cap Brass for performing brilliantly at my daughter’s wedding on Saturday. They were so utterly professional and really started things off to a swing. Totally a huge part of our wonderful day. Can not recommend them enough. Thank you again.

We had Flat Cap Brass for our wedding in June and they were absolutely fantastic. We honestly can’t recommend them enough – they were not only brilliant musicians who got our party started straight after the ceremony, but they were professional, friendly and so accommodating through the whole booking process (including having to change our wedding date). Not only were we blown away with how great they were, but our guests have been raving about them ever since as well. I wouldn’t hesitate to book them for any event (including our post-wedding party hopefully) and would recommend them to anyone!! Thanks for helping make our day so special!

‘…the outdoor stage at Constellations proved one of the highlights of Saturday, with a great blend of stylistically varied talent. With festival-goers enjoying the sporadic sun with intermittent clouds, many with a cold drink in hand – for much of the day the stage felt really summery, with great vibes provided as a result of many excellent bands. As the night drew on, and the fire pit was lit, revellers enjoyed a stunning set courtesy of Flat Cap Brass, whose uniquely energetic rhythms left crowds demanding more as their set drew to a close. Truly top performers.’

‘Then we headed out to the garden and just happened to bump into the Flat Cap Brass Band. They were playing brass covers of Beyonce, Rihanna, Cee Lo Green, Van Halen, White Stripes and ended on a mass singalong of Robbie Williams’ Angels. If you’d have told us that Robbie Williams would be responsible for a Sound City highlight, we’d have laughed in your face.
And yet, there was something about the unpretentiousness of it all that seemed to create a real moment. People were dancing on tables and enjoying themselves in a way that we didn’t really see at the other stages. Peppering pure, unabashed fun into the proceedings made all the difference, and we left totally re-energised. And if you think we’re exaggerating, check this; they were the only act of the entire weekend where we saw a packed audience chanting for an encore.’

Thank you to you all – you were absolutely incredible and it was just perfect for us! The guests echoed that too. Will be recommending you to everybody!
‘You guys were absolutely incredible, we cannot thank you enough. You made the evening. Stephen mentioned in his speech that a brass band was the one thing I wanted and you guys were more than we could have dreamed of. We hope to see you again at some point in the future!’

‘Sorry I didn’t get a chance to speak last night. I wanted to thank you and all the band so much for your amazing set. I had such fun, and so many people were saying how much they enjoyed it. It’s been a pleasure organising this with you, and you made the evening really memorable.’
Wedding, Liverpool
You guys were amazing! We had such a great time and every song was so top drawer. We had so many people say how fun the band was so thank you!
Yeah we loved the amount of people up dancing non stop! Cheers!

‘Flat Cap Brass performed at our community event in York and were amazing! Their communication was great and they made the booking process so simple. Their mixture of old and new music struck a note with the different generations in the crowd and got them up and dancing.’

‘My wife and I booked the Flat Cap Brass Band for our recent wedding. Simon and the band couldn’t have been more accommodating.
The whole process was completely stress free and the band absolutely understood the theme of the wedding and the sort of music my wife and I had hoped to hear.
The band made our wedding that extra special and all of our guests commented on how great they sounded. Nothing was too much and they exceeded our expectations.
We also booked the DJ package following the bands performance which was fantastic. Music was such an important part of our wedding and the band completely delivered.’
Much love,
Mr & Mrs Williams.

‘Flat Cap Brass are a pleasure to work with. Providing high quality, atmospheric funky tunes. Well versed in working the crowd, as they did with such aplomb at Holmfirth Food and Drink Festival and their gig at The Nook, Holmfirth. Top drawer musicians paired with real ale – brilliant!’

‘I booked Flat Cap Brass for a Mother’s Day concert at Pontefract Castle. They were blokes in flat caps playing brass instruments, but it was excellent! Just what we wanted, fun, lively, jolly music, well played, by jolly Yorkshire-men. Will definitely book them again!

‘Sunday in York with friends made all the more special by the awesome classical funk sounds of Flat Cap Brass. Who doesn’t love a bit of Dvorak and Joaquin Rodrigo paired seamlessly with Jarvis Cocker, The Human League and A-Ha. What’s not to love?!’
‘These guys are brilliant! Flat Cap Brass bringing a smile to everyone’s face here in York!’
