Having shared stages with Noel Gallagher, Manic Street Preachers, Travis, Will Young, Texas, The Darkness, Pixie Lott, Ray Davies (The Kinks), Roger Daltrey, Status Quo and Toploader, the members have become some of the south's most sort after musicians.

They have also travelled to Spain, Italy and Guernsey to perform at weddings and corporate functions.

Reviews of great folk!

Steve Backshall and Helen Glover MBE hired Great Folk! to perform at their wedding reception

We just got back from honeymoon last night, and the whole way through were buzzing about our perfect day, and the role you all played in it. I will never forget to my dying day, you belting out 9-5 while everyone from grannies to the farmer’s kids went crazy, and then sitting round the bonfire till near dawn singing our hearts out. One of the most special moments of my whole life. You are truly good souls! Huge hugs from two of your new biggest fans.

Laura and Dean Newman hired Great Folk! for their wedding reception

We wanted to say a huge thank you for helping to make our evening so special. You were absolutely amazing!! We were so thrilled that practically all our guests were just dancing all night long, and Laura LOVED the chance to get up and have a sing ha-ha! From the start you were so great to work with, every phone conversation and email was just so easy, thank you for being so flexible and accommodating on all of our requests. You have really helped to create some very special memories!
