James and Tabitha Clews - Wedding April 2013

Thank you guys for performing at our wedding! You went down a storm and really brought the house down and really made our wedding so special. We cannot thank you enough for going that extra mile and learning XX "Angels" for our first dance. It truly was a beautiful arrangement of one of our favourite songs. You smashed our expectations and then some. Claire you and your band are beyond talented and so nice, professional and kind. The saxophonist made our lives! We cannot thank you enough! Thank you xx

Gary Stevens - Heart FM
If you are thinking of hiring the band for any occasion they come highly recommended. They cater for all tastes and the musicianship is second to none. Claire professionally handles bookings from start to finish and the reaction from the crowd at our event was simply great. If you book this band you won't be disappointed!

Sian Eales
Hi Claire,We would like to thank you and the band. You were FANTASTIC and topped off our special day, our wedding guests are still talking about the band and thoroughly enjoyed the sets you played.  If in the future, if we have another function, we will definately be in touch again, once again thank you very much.

Hi Claire
Just wanted to say such a big thank you to you and all of the band for making Beccy’s birthday party so very special.
The whole evening from the moment you arrived was just perfect. Everyone commented on how terrific you guys sound and how great the music was. It was such a brilliant night and with such an age mix it was so good to see everyone up dancing having fun. I’d just like to say as well that dealing with you was a pleasure, extremely well organised and professional and friendly.
If we ever need a band again you will be my first port of call and if you are out there needing a band go for it and book this one.

Best Wishes
Richard

The Claire Barker Band are amazing!! If you have an event, be it a wedding, birthday or ANY special occasion I would highly recommend them.
They recently played at my wedding and they are phenomenal!!  Everybody commented on the quality of the sound, lead singer and overall feel of the band - they are so friendly and welcoming and instantly get the party going.  The dance floor was soon filled with happy, dancing guests - a happy sight for any Bride and Groom.
Thank you so much Claire and all the rest of the band - we loved every minute of your performance - Claire your voice rocks!!
All our love

Hi Claire, thank you so much. You were absolutely brilliant, firstly in the church- so many people couldn't believe you were actually singing- one person thought it was on CD!! You have an amazing voice and all 3 songs were perfect in the ceremony. You started everyone off as soon as you began 'kissing you'!!  Thank you so much for adding the service into your day, i know it's been a really busy weekend for you.
And secondly your band!! AMAZING!! loads of praise from everyone at the wedding, as im sure you could tell from the reaction when you had to stop! I have no doubt that you'll all take off and have more and more bookings...especially if your taking them for 2013 already!!
  
Thanks again, Lucy and Ben xx

Thank you for a great evening at Dunston Hall. Loved the evening. It's not often I get up and dance but some of the songs got me feet tapping and couldn't resist the urge! So many of the guests commented on just how good and the band were.
