Highlights of working with SOUTH WEST LIGHT AND SOUND for your wedding:
“If you’re thinking of just sticking on your iPod, or getting your cousin to DJ – don’t do it. Having a live band makes a huge difference to how the crowd responds, and having an experienced band that can read the crowd, like Soul Survivors, keeps everyone happy on the night. With a song list packed with classics, the Soul Survivors make selecting music for your big day easier than picking out items from the MYER gift registry. They’re talented musicians with a full range of pre-dinner background music and post-dinner tunes that get the crowd on their feet. And they have the rare ability to change the set list and do requests on the night. To anyone who is about to get married, just remember everything will be right on the day – if you get the Soul Survivors involved. Thanks again for the great job you guys did at our wedding.” - Geoff S.
