Profile |
|||||||||||||||||
| Every member of the band is an experienced and
skilled professional musician in their own right. A proven track record
of reliability, professionalism - and value for money - it all goes without
saying... West One performs one of the slickest, non-stop, multi-era tributes to be heard in any party band. These include a seventies tribute (Earth Wind and Fire, Kool and the Gang, Jackson Five etc.), and eighties tribute (Hughie Lewis and the News, Weathergirls, Bangles), Motown/Soul (Four Tops, Diana Ross, Aretha Franklin), Abba (all the favourites) and Latin fever (Ricky Martin) - just to name a few. All the music is played one hundred per cent live (real musicians - no backing tracks). The bands energy and enthusiasm is infectious - dynamic male and female vocalists, who always react to the vibe of the crowd ensure that the sets always look and sound spot-on. Rest assured after all the time spent organising your event, West One never fails to add an extra magical touch. The show is equally at home in large corporate functions, outdoor music festivals and private parties alike. In addition to the non-stop dancing, West One can also provide a lower-key tribute to some of the past and present swing vocalists - Frank Sinatra, Harry Connick Junior, Tony Bennett, and more currently, Michael Buble and Jamie Cullen. West One always carries great back up in the way of professional sound and lighting engineers. A top-line PA is brought to every gig regardless of size, to produce CD quality sound. In between sets CDs can be played or a DJ can be added, for the complete entertainment package. All equipment is 'PAT' safety tested and West One also holds public liability insurance to give both client and venue complete peace of mind. A typical performance is for 2 x 60 minute sets. Line up & Options: Keyboards, bass, drums, guitar, male and female vocals 2 piece brass section 2 piece brass section + percussion Optional 50 minute dinner jazz set |

| "West One were absolutely fantastic.
They played brilliant tracks - a mixture of jazz and then their usual medleys,
which appealed to all generations. Each song sounded like the real cover
- we were amazed how they could imitate so many different artists so well!
The best thing was that they were lovely people and really looked like they
were enjoying themselves as well. Thank you so much! We have had so many
comments from everyone about how great you were! Hope to see you again" Georgina and Ben Blunt "West One performed at our wedding on 26th June 2004 and were amazing! As performers/singers ourselves, it was important to us to have a high quality band and we weren't disappointed. They were young, energetic and extremely professional. I have never been to a wedding where people danced all night long! Thank you so much for making our evening so special." Julia Walton "Superb. They exceeded our expection by far. " C Last - TVR Car Club "A huge thank you to West One - the dance floor was never empty. I will definitely be booking them again for next year." M Greaves "What a wonderful, magic performance. You and your band are just the tops! Thank you so much for being part of the Festival again this year. I can't tell you how the town is talking about you all - everyone loved it." Dartmouth Music Festival "Probably one of the best bands I have heard in a long time. All the songs were excellent and played with such energy, really got the crowd going. Thought Glen, the band leader and the rest of the band were extremely flexible with our requirements for the night. Will certainly be recommending the band for future GSK events." Prafull Mistry, Glaxo Smith Kline "A million thankyou's for doing such an amazing job at our wedding. Everyone is still raving on about how talented you all are. The music was just fantastic and you bought an energy and joy to the evening that is so much appreciated. We especially appreciate the superb renditon of our first dance song. Thanks again and again." Jamie & Kathy Lewis "Just wanted to say thank you and that you were all great on Saturday night - everyone at the ball would not hesitate to recommend you for any forthcoming parties etc that might take place. You all did a fantastic job and certainly got everyone (including me and the rest of committee once all the auctions were sorted!) up and dancing." Sam Hanebeck "..the W1 Dance Band were equally superb. Every band member was incredibly kind and thoroughly professional. The music and play list kept our guests and us on the dance floor throughout the evening. We particularly appreciate the fact that the band learned our first dance song - and did an amazing rendition of it on the night." Kathy O'Connor "The music was fantastic - all the guests I have spoken to thoroughly enjoyed the band. Very many thanks once again for all your efforts and see you again next year!" Vicky Scott, Royal Thames Yacht Club. |
