Chameleon receive many letters and card of thanks. Here’s what our clients have to say:
by Keith | Jun 12, 2023 | Testimonials
I contacted Chameleon to provide all the music for a “Magical Mystery Tour” Birthday Party. In a rather eccentric request, we needed three different bands in three different places. Keith was immediately on board with the whole concept and contributed very useful input into the question of how to make it all work. He then went away and organised the relevant musicians. On the night everything worked perfectly, creating just the right mood at all points of the evening and culminating with the fabulous Chameleon Party Band themselves. Great musicians, great people to work with. Can’t thank them enough. Ian...

We’d really like to thank all of the band of Chameleon for a fantastic music night! You really were very very good. We heard you on Youtube initially and thought you were good, but you surpassed our expectations and a lot of people commented on how they’d really enjoyed listening and dancing to your band. Well done! Anthony & Hazel...

Thanks for your excellent performance at my wedding reception last night. I’ve know on you for a long time and your reputation precedes you.

I wanted to thank you for Saturday and Juliet’s wedding-you guys were literally amazing! I have had SO MANY compliments about you, and people asking who you were. We had “trendy” sorts from London and we even had the CEO of Atlantic Records UK here, which I didn’t tell you that at the time 🙂 and several professional musicians- all of them hugely complimentary about Chameleon (who I had initially positioned as a “just a covers band”). People know that I “know my music” and expected I would have a great band, and you certainly didn’t let me down, you were BRILLIANT. If I am honest, I was a little nervous booking a band I had never heard. Music is my passion and I did feel that it was something of a risk, but you simply blew me away. The dance floor was packed from the first dance till the last number. The sound was truly exceptional as well, superbly mixed and balanced and the playing was absolutely top class. Your soul stuff was my favourite if I am honest, but everything was outstanding. The piano in the church went down extremely well, and people also raved about the trio playing in the garden. That was the perfect backdrop, on a perfect day. The versatility was impressive. No wonder you are called “Chameleon”. Several people commented that the dance band were great and also the “jazz trio” were excellent too, not realising they were one and the same. I would certainly have you guys play at any other event, and will be recommending you every time I am asked for a...

Having first met you at a wedding fair, we were struck by how friendly and informative you were. It didn’t take long after that meeting for us to decide you were the band we wanted to play at our wedding. We loved the way you didn’t work to a fixed playlist, but preferred to choose songs to suit the audience on the night. Your music was great and we really enjoyed the variety you played. Thank you so very much for learning/playing our first dance song, it really did help make the day special for us.

We just wanted to say a huge thank you once again for playing at our wedding. It was so nice to hear such a good band playing live, as we have been to many a wedding with poor music and as musicians ourselves, it’s hard not to pick up on those things.

We’ve had so many compliments from our guests (who included a great many musicians!) and people asking for your name, as they were so impressed.

Right from the start you were an absolute pleasure to work with, and talking things through with you on the phone totally set my mind at ease about everything. The Jazz trio in the afternoon was lovely, the first dance sound was just perfect - Kerry really does have a beautiful voice, and then the way you managed to keep the dancefloor packed the whole evening from then on was amazing and exactly what we wanted. Old and young alike were absolutely loving it! And then DJ Kezza at the end was fab 🙂 Thank you also for being so patient and obliging with the numerous requests from guests.

Hi Keith (and the rest of the band). I am so sorry, I have meant to be in touch before now, I don’t know where the last five weeks have gone! I just wanted to say a massive thank you to you all for playing at our wedding, you were absolutely brilliant. The choice of songs was great and everyone danced. It was one of the fullest wedding dance floors I have seen for a few years and so many people commented on that fact. Mum & Dad have received so many thank you cards since the wedding and nearly everyone mentions how great the band was, so a big thank you to you, as I have to say choosing a band was my biggest worry, but once we had you guys booked I was confident it would be a great night.

I’d just like to say a massive thank you for doing such a wonderful job at the Hunt Ball on Saturday night. It is always a nightmare when you book a band for such a big occasion and especially when I hadn’t heard you play before, as I always think the band can make or break and evening and I am happy to say you definitely made the evening. People were on the dancefloor from start to finish and I had lots of people asking me who you were and where I found you!! I have to admit your audio on the website was by far the best I’d heard.

Please accept my apologies for the delay in sending this email of thanks to you and the rest of Chameleon for the fabulous music you provided for our wedding on 4th May 2013 at Ripley Castle. Everything was perfect! We have received so many comments from our guests who all agreed that you are incredibly talented musicians and people were so complimentary of the wonderful atmosphere you were able to create for our reception. You set the mood perfectly during the drinks reception, meal and the evening reception. The experience I received from you personally was so professional. Your passion for the band was evident throughout our conversations prior to the event and I was so grateful for your reassurance and patience during the booking process. You had so much time for me and you were always happy to talk to me to discuss our requirements. I had previously had so many bad experiences trying to book a band for our wedding and you were like a breath of fresh air. It was so much easier to deal with you rather than an agent who deals with hundreds of bands they know only a little bit about. By dealing with you directly, I had no concerns about the music on the day as you had taken the stress away by talking with me and my husband on numerous occasions, so you knew exactly what we wanted.

Sorry to take so long in getting back to you after our wedding. Quite simply: The band were outstanding providing a fantastic variety of music throughout the day It was so stress-free; you turned up and got on with it and left everyone to enjoy the day The comments from all guests were extremely positive - both young and old, such was the variety of music. In the afternoon, the trio provided, according to one guest “some of the classiest music I’ve ever heard” In the evening, the music was lively enough to fill the dance floor, yet not too loud so that the less energetic guests could still enjoy a conversation. The whole experience from booking, support and on the day was fantastic and I would highly recommend anyone to book you for their event. Incidentally, I didn’t want to say beforehand, but our guest list included quite a few notable musicians, one of which was recently recognised in the Queen’s honours list and this was the source of so many positive remarks!
