I am so so so excited to share with you the AWESOME band that played at our wedding in June. Phil Lyons and the New Vintage Band happen to be the most adorable bunch of people you will ever come across. Clearly passionate about what they do, you can see how much they enjoy themselves when up on the stage.
We came upon them at a Wedding Fair in Wetherby and as soon as I saw their stand when we arrived I was over like a shot. I knew for a fact we could not just have an ordinary DJ for our wedding nor could we have a really awful tribute act that would make me cringe (don’t act like you don’t know what I’m talking about!)
The guys have class. In bucket loads. Phil Lyons voice is just so typical of a 1940’s parlour club singer but on an even bigger and better scale. There is nothing cheesy about these guys. The Frank Sinatra covers are almost like they were wrote for them.
I’ve realised that one of the Summer Bell Sisters is not in any of the photos who provides extraordinary background vocals for the band. I think she could have been in between her outfit changes because they do two sets. They do the soul, swoony songs first and then move on to the jive & rock n’ roll songs for everyone to have a real boogie before the night is over.
We opted opted for the 6 piece band rather than ten piece (this was mainly down to cost and space!) but we were delighted with our choice. These guys really know how to get the crowd up and dancing!
If you need some entertainment for your wedding or just any event I would definitley recommend these guys, without a shadow of a doubt – so go, what are you waiting for? Go check them out here! You will not be disappointed.
