Citizen has earned a solid reputation as a versatile function band which has resulted in many repeat bookings.
Here is a selection of the typical thank you letters that we have received.
Wedding Band
Hello Tansy, I would just like to thank you for all the organising of our wedding band. I would especially like to thank Citizen for their brilliant performance on the night. They really made the dancefloor shake!! It was packed all night, and they went out of their way for requests and also letting a few singers sing with them on the night. I was really delighted with them and so glad that I booked them.
Thanks again
Jeannine & Gary Jordan!

To Geoff and all members of the band,
Thank you so much for making our Daughter's wedding perfect.
It took us a long time to find a good band and we came up trumps with Citizenband. You are head and shoulders above the rest. You sound fantastic and are so professional.
The atmosphere was electric from the word go. Everyone danced during the evening. The guests commented on how good you were and everyone said they had enjoyed it.
We will definitely recommend you.
Thanks again.
Alicia and Stuart.

Dear Geoff,
Just a line to say thank you, to you and your band “Citizen” for providing such excellent music at our wedding reception.
The party atmosphere was just what was needed and many guests have commented on how good the band was.
Thank you once again,
Katie & Dave
Hello Citizen,
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you and the band for the great show that you put on for our wedding on 18th June. Everybody thoroughly enjoyed the music and are still talking about it!!
The atmosphere was great and the band just finished the evening off perfectly.
I would have no hesitation in recommending you to others, you were all very professional, so friendly and just brilliant!!
I wish you all every success in the future.
Many thanks,
Colette and Mark
It was absolutely brilliant music on Saturday at Fiona and Paul's wedding! Citizen were fantastic and everyone just wanted to dance all night! Mary was great and did really well - it must have been quite hard to do most of it herself, but she was SO good. (Loved the top she was wearing as well!!) I hope the other lady and gent are better now. Your son is clever, isn't he?
I am sorry that we didn't mention you at the end - I feel really bad about that, but have been telling everyone who you are because they all said how good the band was. Also I want to thank you for being so lenient with the children - I like to think you would have stopped them playing about if you didn't want it - but maybe you were too nice! They had the best time!
Anyway - MANY THANKS AGAIN to you all - you really made the party.
Best regards,
Sylvia
Hi,

We would definitely recommend you to anyone thinking of getting married or having a special function.
We wish you every success in the future.
Kind regards,
Sarah and Gary
Hi Citizen,
Thank you so much for performing at our wedding - we and all our friends thought you were all absolutely brilliant and you helped to make the day one Lesley and I will never forget.
I am sure that either we or one of our friends will be booking you for another function in the future.
Thanks again to you and all the band.
Best regards,
Dan
Dear Citizen,
Thank you all so much for making out wedding day so perfect.
From our first contact, up to you playing “New York”, your professionalism and ability was obviously visible. And we were so happy that we had you as our band.
Wishing you every success for the future.
Citizen,
Just a note to say that James and I were thrilled with the band at our wedding and we just loved dancing away. Everyone has complimented the band and asked questions about you.
The highlight was seeing James drum, it really made the evening special! I was so proud of him, so thank you again for that.
Please pass on our thanks to the rest of the band, it really was excellent and we felt you guys were worth every penny! You did really well with "For once in my life" too, so all the hard work of learning it paid off!
Thanks again,
Virginia
To all the members of Citizen,
We want to thank you for playing at our wedding – and to let you know we had a fantastic day.
Our family and friends have all commented on how much fun it was having live music and how much they enjoyed dancing the night away.
We have no plans for anymore weddings, but if we were asked by anyone else, we would recommend you without hesitation.
Professional, reliable service and quality musicianship creating a fun atmosphere for the whole evening.
Dear Citizen,
I am writing to thank you and your wonderful band for their excellent performance to celebrate our marriage, we had a huge number of compliments on your group and the wonderful music you played and sang.
YOU WERE FANTASTIC and you really made the evening very special and unique. Not only did you learn our first dance song, but the other track we loved as well! BRILLIANT! I hope that your success has continued since.
I booked Citizen because of a personal recommendation and that recommendation was well-deserved! Since that day, I have been quick to mention Citizen whenever I could!
Best wishes for a long and successful future!
Kind regards,
Jennifer
Hi Geoff,
Thank you so much for playing at our wedding. It really made a difference to have a live band and all of our guests commented on how fantastic you were. The DJ was also excellent and had everyone up dancing right from the start. We had a wonderful day and to end with such a great party was absolutely perfect.
Thanks again,
Carly

Party Band
Dear Citizen,
Just to say a HUGE thank you to you all.
Everyone thought you were fantastic and you really made the night!
We had the most amazing day and everyone still keeps going on about the band!!!
With many many thanks, both Shadi and I do hope you enjoyed it.
With best regards,
Helen
Hi,
On behalf of Myra and myself I would like to thank you and the other members of the band for the excellent music you provided for our party last week.
All our guests really enjoyed themselves and the large numbers of people who were dancing shows that you got the music just right for the occasion.
We also greatly appreciate that you played right through due to our delayed start and hope it was not too tough on the voices. We all thought the girls looked, sang and played fantastically and I am sure our friends from the party will be in contact with you for parties they are planning.
Once again many thanks and we look forward to meeting up again.
Best regards,
Paul and Myra
Function Band
Dear Mike,
Just a quick note to say thank you for providing "Citizen" for our Gala Dinner Dance.
Without exception everyone said the band were terrific and please pass this message on to them. I know they thoroughly enjoyed the venue themselves.
At the moment I am trying to finalise a date at the Crowne Plaza for next year and when I have some more details, I would certainly like to book the same group.

Dear Geoff,
Under some unusual circumstances, you and your team did a super job and were the 'icing on the cake' to a terrific day at Wrenbury!
Great tempo and energy, first dance music great and finale too.
Thank you and the band so much.
Best wishes,
Helen & Jason
Dear Citizen,
Thank you very much for playing at our special event which we held at the City of Manchester Stadium last Friday.
Both Nigel and I would just like to say what a fantastic gig you did and how well it all worked with the DJ.
The atmosphere you created in the Mancunian suite was amazing and straight away you got everybody up on the dance floor... where most of them stayed! The music between yourself and the DJ was seamless and I really appreciated the way Citizen and the DJ worked together to make our event an exciting occasion and one our employees will continue to talk about with fond memories.
A band/DJ can either make or break an event and from all the positive feedback I received, you definitely helped to make our event a fun and memorable one which is what I was hoping it would be. We would be very happy to recommend you and indeed if we get the opportunity to book you again.
Many thanks Citizen!
Hi Geoff,
I would just like to say a very big thank you for your performance on Sat at my charity ball, everyone really enjoyed themselves and I hope you did too. I will definitely recommend you and if for any insane reason I do another one you will be at the top of my list.
Thanks again to you all you were brilliant.

Corporate Events
Hi Geoff,
Just wanted to say a big thank-you to you and the Band for a great evening's entertainment on Saturday.
I thought the evening went really well and everyone remarked on the professional quality of the Band.
Thanks to everyone for all their hard work and enthusiasm.
Kind regards,
Janet
Dear Citizen,
We thoroughly enjoyed a great nights entertainment at our corporate event, for which many thanks.
When you were packing up I did ask you if you could come back again to next year’s ball. The committee was unanimous with their agreement that you should return and if you are available that night we would love to have you back.
Dear Geoff.
My letter is to personally thank you for joining us at our Platinum Ball and helping to make it such a success. We've have had some great feedback from our guests who delighted in listening and dancing to your music - so much so that they didn't want you to leave! We very much appreciated the flexibility you showed during the evening. Everyone had a fabulous evening which will be talked about for a very long time.
I'm only sorry that I didn't have more time to spend with you as I was on "duty" as the organizer and in fact I didn't manage to have my first glass of wine until after midnight!
I thought you might like to have a copy of our Platinum Ball Brochure together with a copy of our DVD. Once again thanks for contributing towards such a memorable event.
Yours sincerely
