Hi Gareth,
Hope you are well!!
Just got back from honeymoon which is why you haven't heard from me.
Secondly, a big THANKYOU for playing for us, it was absolutely brilliant. You picked exactly the right songs and hit exactly the right tone for the evening. You were a big contributor to everyone having a brilliant time (fuelled by lots of booze of course)!!
As you were leaving you gave me some CDs but when I got back from my honeymoon people had taken them, do you have any extras? If not then don't worry, but I would like one and some other people were asking as well. In the thank you letters that have been rolling in lots of people have mentioned how good the band were and how it really created a great atmosphere!
I hope you all enjoyed yourselves, I know you were waiting around for ages but I hope you helped yourselves to drinks, food etc.
Yes there were a lot of sore heads the next morning, however we have a lot of incredibly funny pictures!!
I will point people in your direction in the future (you were recommended to me by one of our guests, the man leading the pub quiz, he said that you were the band he would want at his wedding) with confidence!
Best wishes and if you have any extra CDs…
Cathy Wise
PS. If you go to a wedding where they have ‘Jim'll Fix It’ as their wedding theme tune… let me know!!)
Wedding 2
City Strut played at my wedding and they gave us the perfect evening.
We wanted to have the biggest party ever and I have never seen a dance floor at a wedding so packed.
Even the 90 year old grandparents were up dancing the night away! I have had so many comments back from the guests who all agreed the band were absolutely fantastic and they all wanted to know who they were. A really funky, soul sound and perfect for all occasions.
I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone wanting a lively sound for any occasion.

Hi Gareth
Hope all is well. We would like to say a big thanks for a fabulous set. Everyone at the day commented on how good you were. Married life is going well, as we will be expecting a new addition in March!!!
Good luck to you all. Hopefully see you at venue soon.

Corporate 1 - 100% Design London - Award Ceremony
We booked City Strut to perform at a brand new international interior design award ceremony, and as this was such a high profile event we needed a band of the highest quality.
City Strut came highly recommended through a colleague, and quite rightly so, as they more than delivered on their brief and the expectations of the event team!
We asked them for two sets, one very 'cool' for just after the award ceremony and the other more up tempo and fun for when the Champagne was running low!
The entire ceremony was a huge success, and City Strut created the perfect atmosphere all night and made a fantastic dance floor! They were thoroughly organised and easy to work with and I would recommend them to any event organiser.

Corporate 4 - ctmarchitects LLP
City Strut came to our rescue when organising a corporate event at the last minute. They dealt directly with the venue to ensure everything was in place and were very professional in getting everything ready for us in double time!
The set they had put together was perfect for our needs and got everyone on the dance floor - including myself!
The whole band were amazing including the lead vocalist. City Strut are perfect to get your party on the dancefloor!
Hope all is well with you and here's to a great new year for the band.
Kind regards

Party 1 - 50th Birthday Party - Home House Private Members Club
Hi Gareth,
Thank you so much for your wonderful playing on Saturday night - from all reports I have been getting over the weekend everyone had a fantastic time and really pleased at how smoothly everything ran on the night.
The Bond themes in particular were such a nice touch and so great to have that extra oomph from the brass. So really appreciate the effort you put into arranging those.
Am also more than happy to write a quick testimonial - feel free to use the below if suitable!
"We booked City Strut for a James Bond themed 50th Birthday
party on the recommendation of a friend and couldn't have been
more pleased. They were easy to work with, taking care of liaising
with the venue directly to ensure everything went smoothly on
the night.
They created a great atmosphere, putting together a set that
had everyone on the dancefloor and even included numerous Bond
themes for us which really put the finishing touches to the
night. From all of the comments we've had everyone had a wonderful
time and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you - many many thanks".
Kind regards

Hello Gareth,
Wow, what a great party. Amazing music, which was much needed
after the baseball and hog roast!!!. THANKS so much for 'Long
Train Running', who told you it was my favourite song!?
The 'corporate lot' (who pay for such things), were equally
impressed, so we'll probaly see you at the Chrismtas party.
Thanks so much for everything and see you at the end of the
year!
