-Ann-marie

"Just a quick note to say thanks to the band for a great night last night. My other half can't stop telling me how much she enjoyed it, and everyone was blown away by the performance. Now I'm off to the leg shop for a new pair - these old ones are skanked out!"
Rick, Birthday Party (December 2011)

"Kate and I would like to express our thanks for your performances at our wedding recently. We were overwhelmed at the quality of your act and I can say that on behalf of all my guests. You had me, my wife, and all my guests dancing and having a great time. My brother even come up to me at one point and said "booking a ska covers band for your wedding was a master stroke!!" I can hand on heart recommend you to anyone that asks."
Danny Stillwell, Wedding booking (October 2011)

"Just wanted to say a huge thank you to The London Ska Band for playing at our 'festival themed' wedding on the 3rd September 2011 at Woodchester Mansion, Stroud, Gloucestershire. We have been to see all of the main ska bands, Madness, The Specials, Bad Manners, etc, and as a tribute band would say The London Ska Band are as close to the real thing as you're going to get. Lots of our guests (and the sound crew) commented on how good you were and everyone enjoyed a bit of skanking! You were all very friendly and chatty off-stage and brilliant as musicians on-stage. I would also like to thank you for allowing my 6 year old cousin to get up on the stage and play a little tune on your keyboard. You really made his day too. Hopefully, he will get the Ska bug as he gets older, although I noticed in the videos he was skanking along with everyone else!"
Stu and Rosy, Wedding booking (September 2011)
