"I'm just writing to you and the rest of the band on behalf of all my family and friends to say a massive thank you for the most amazing night we've had in a long while! People had travelled from quite a distance to come to the party and they were not let down - the atmosphere was electric and that's all thanks to you guys! It will not be forgotten in a hurry! We couldn't have asked for a more perfect night! Thanks again!"

Party Band Review

"Wow! What a band and what a night. You were all fabulous! Nobody wanted you to stop and thankyou for keeping going as long as you did. Please send all my all love and thanks to everybody."

Birthday Party Band Review

"Hi there, Just wanted to say a big thank you to the guys who played at our wedding. Russ and I were very excited about having a live band at our wedding as it was kind of our gift to each other. And despite these high expectations we weren't disappointed! We weren't actually sure if our guests would be excited about the kind of band we'd booked, but as I mentioned, our original motivation was a selfish one as we loved the idea of having an amazing band play during our wedding meal. But everyone raved about you! You guys turned out to be the "wow factor" at our wedding and we are so pleased we splashed out on you! Thank you so much for making a perfect day even more special. You were a very classy addition to our wedding day."

Wedding Band Review

"I would just like to say again thank you very much for a fantastic performance. You were all fantastic and so many people loved you. So many compliments I couldn't keep up. You really made the evening and again THANK YOU!!!!!!!!"

Corporate Event Band

"I think there are two things that make the band a must see: the repertoire and the quality of the players. Journeying through guitar and vocal ballads, historic jazz standards, quintet blues and finishing up at Oasis is what I call getting my moneys worth. And the fact that every member of the band can deliver a first class solo is unbelievable. Frankly, I think you're pretty unique as an ensemble. All in all, damn good reasons to see you all having a lot of fun!"

Theatre Show Band

"The 6th of May seems a little while ago now, but we had the most fabulous day and the crowning glory was your band in the evening. Our aim was to find a band whose repertoire would transcend the cultures and ages of the guests, which yours achieved effortlessly. The musical arrangement for the night was perfect. We have received wonderful compliments from many guests who enjoyed the energy of the performance through to those who were enjoying the exceptional musical quality. The italians wer thrilled and very impressed with your performance of 'Tu vuoi fa l'americano'. Two aspiring bass players very much enjoyed 'The chicken'. We were of course delighted with your flawless performance of 'Beyond the sea' for our first dance.Finally I wanted to say a big thank you for playing 'Happy Birthday' for my father at the end of the evening. It was a wonderful touch and very kind of you. In short, you made our evening into a perfect reception. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts"

Wedding Bands Review

"Just a quick note to thank you and the band for the brilliant performance at our wedding on the 27th May. Everyone really enjoyed the music and commented on how great a voice your singer had and how well the band played. Although I didn't get to hear the entire set as a result of having to rush around saying hello to all our guests, the mix of songs was just what we had anticipated and fitted perfectly with the balmy evening we were so lucky to enjoy."

Wedding Band Review

"I just wanted to say thanks for the great music your band provided at the wedding. It was precisely what I'd wanted for the occasion and I've had many positive comments about your music from people who were at the evening bash. I particularly wanted to thank you for playing the song "Almost like being in love". You played a great version which defied the fact that I'd only asked if you knew it a week before hand! Thanks once again, and I hope you and your band enjoyed playing for us"

Wedding Band Review

"Just a quick note to say thank you again for last night's performance - it was amazing. I loved the way you played to the crowd and sensed what got them up dancing. Everyone said how amazing you all were and I will be recommending Capital S to all!"

Live Band Review

"Thank you all so much for helping making the evening at our wedding go so well. You were such a great band and we had numerous friends and family comment on the day and afterwards complementing you guys. We loved our first dance and so did so many of our guests. It worked perfectly and thanks for being flexible with that. The venue milbridge court said that you guys were the best band they'd had!!! It was great to see everyone dancing right to the end. Thanks so much. "

Live Wedding Band

"I was very pleased with how last Saturday went. All the band were friendly, professional and flexible with the timings which was just what we needed. Our guests seemed to really enjoy the mix of music and it is testament to the quality of the band that the dance floor was filled so quickly. "

Wedding Band Review

"Can I just say a huge thank you to you all for making our office party such an amazing night. Everyone has commented today on what an entertaining evening it was and how amazing the band were. Once again thank you"

Live Wedding Band Review

"I also wanted to say a personal thank you to you for being flexible and easy going on the day, such as pushing times back etc as we were running slightly behind, setting up the PA so we could do the speeches (and my rap), and staying on till the end so we could use your speakers for the final iPod set. It all contributed to a smoother and less stressful experience. Katie and I had a wonderful day, and we luckily managed to spend most of the evening on the dancefloor enjoying ourselves, as I know many couples often miss out on this as they're talking to people. Our motto was if you want to talk to us, you'll find us on the dancefloor."

Live Event Band

"I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and your band for making our day yesterday so perfect! I can't tell you how many of our guests said how much they loved you all. Everything you did was so perfect and I genuinely can't thank you enough for being so wonderful!"

Event Band Review

"Capital S - awesome band great entertainment nice relaxed chilled style like a Micheal bubles were a good 2nd act to get the crowd ready for the final band well done and thank you."

Live Band Review

"If you're looking for entertainment that will appeal to a diverse bunch of people this is the band. Their music and singer were fantastic, we found the Entertainment Nation website really easy to book through. The band was on time, polite, well dressed and delivered a great performance, we would definitely give them a 5 out of 5."
