Outstanding performance in Cape Town

These guys absolutely made our day with their performance! We were so pleased Alex and the guys could join us in Cape Town, it meant the world to us to have them play our wedding. Their set was perfectly arranged for the look and feel of our setting and all the guests were blown away. Also every single request was met! Can’t thank the guys enough.

The Perfect Band for an Unbeatable Wedding!

Francis absolutely SMASHED it at our wedding!

From the very beginning, Alex was incredible to work with. His communication was great, and he completely understood the vibe we were going for with the setlist. He even went the extra mile to accommodate our last-minute request by coming along to do a beautiful acoustic set during the day, which added such a special touch to the afternoon.

The setlist was the perfect mix of floor fillers that kept everyone dancing, seamlessly blended with punk and rock anthems that my husband and I love, that created such an electric atmosphere. From the first song, the dance floor was packed and stayed that way ALL NIGHT LONG. They had so much energy and sounded absolutely fantastic.

10/10, would absolutely recommend Francis to any couple planning a wedding! They're not only incredibly talented musicians, but also genuinely lovely people. Having them as part of our special day was an absolute pleasure.

Thank you, Francis, for helping to make our wedding unforgettable!

Francis musician

I hired this musician through a friend of a friend for my wedding. Little did I know what I was in for! He provided great music. So much so my friends asked me for his details for themselves. He knows how to play, he knows how to hit all the right vibes and can read the room like a book. Requests? It didn’t matter he played all of them, he’s that good. In fact I challenge you to hit him with them. He will rise to the occasion I promise. Struck me that if left alone in the wilderness and a guitar that you’d hear something that comes from the soul and heart. Oh and he plays keyboard as well, just thought I’d throw that in there.

Dance floor packed - FAB function band

highly recommend this band. the list of songs they have to play is extensive - and ranges the decades from classic motown to modern tunes. The dance floor was never empty and several friends took their card for future weddings.
