Fiona and Gary
"Thank you for your amazing performance on Saturday! So many people have said how much they loved your music - several have admitted to not being on a dance floor for many years until Saturday! You definitely had everyone on their feet.
We really enjoyed having you there, and you have been so helpful throughout the (lengthy!) time since we first got in contact last summer.
Please convey our thanks and appreciation to the other guys in the band - you were all awesome!"

Nicole’s birthday party in WarwickList Item 1
"Just to say thank you very very much for such a great performance on Saturday night! The band were brilliant and made the evening – everyone raved (and is still raving!) about the music. It really couldn’t have been better and the fact that just about everyone was on the dance floor at one point, says it all! Don’t think my 40th could have been more memorable – I had a blast!"

Maria (Waterstone’s Christmas Party)
"This band you must see live!! Gunnersbury on a cold winter evening, long week at work, Waterstone’s Christmas party in a small venue with a crowd made up of people of all ages, a mixture of senior and junior people in the business (who can be quite hard to please at times!) However, Rocket did a wonderful job of bringing out the wannabe rock stars in all of us and created one of the best party experiences of all times!
The complete service provided by the band was second to none. They were extremely patient in dealing with probably about 100 emails before the actual event which just shows how professional and business like they actually are. I have no doubt that we will hire Rocket again in the future. Thank you guys for making our Christmas Party such a success."

Flora and Ben
"I just wanted to drop you an email to say thank you very much to you and the rest of Rocket for playing at our wedding in October and making the night even more memorable than it was. Everyone had a great evening and thoroughly enjoyed dancing to the performance and a couple friends have asked the name of ‘the band’ and we have subsequently passed on your details, so I hope more business comes to you from that. I also wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rocket to anyone looking for a band for an event – you guys were great and even managed to get my aunt’s partner on the dance floor, who I was told the other day, had never danced before!
Thank you again for such a super job – we really appreciate everything you did."

James and Rhian
“We are sorry this has taken so long to send but oh my goodness, thank you for being so amazing at out wedding! You did a fantastic job and the dance floor was full all night! We have also had a couple of people ask for your details too. You were fab! We hope you had a good night too.
Thank you again.”

David Little
“Rocket are an outstanding band, we saw them playing at O’Neills and loved the range of rock and pop songs they played. We booked them as soon as possible for our wedding party. Every single person at the reception (young and old) raved about the band and I’m positive there will be more bookings as a result! We didn’t want the usual party DJ playing the same old songs, and were so happy that Rocket played such fresh and well chosen sets that got everyone on the dance floor.”

Mark Banks
“I booked Rocket to play at a private party and they were superb. They played 2 sets and the dance floor was packed from start to finish. The quality of their music and vocals were exceptional. All my guests went out of their way to comment that they were the best band they had heard for a very long time. I would not hesitate to recommend them and would definitely book them again – just need an excuse for another party!”

Diana
“Just a quick note to say thank you very much for the brilliant set you did for us at our corporate event in Chelsea. The clients thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and it was a pleasure for me working with such a professional and friendly band. It is essential for us to be able to trust our suppliers and to know that we will get the end result that we have promised the clients. Your performance was excellent and I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone else. I look forward to working with you again soon…”

All our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves, so thank you so much – someone recommended you to us and we will definitely recommend you in the future!!”
