You guys are great! Thoroughly enjoyed the set, got everyone dancing, cant wait for another party so we have an excuse to book you

Hi We just wanted to say a big thank you for playing at our wedding reception at the Lincolnshire Oak, 17th June 2006. We really appreciate what you did especially playing our requested song at the start, it was a really nice touch. We have had numerous guests telling us how much they enjoyed themselves and complimented us on our choice of evening entertainment. We will be recommending you to friends and family for future events and will be more than happy to book you again. Many thanks again for all your hard work. Kind Regards
- Jenna and Alex

Lovely voice, great sound, hope to see you again soon x

A well rehearsed, great sounding and very accurate tribute band. I have seen many in the last couple of years and these guys are at a very high standard. Great vocals, both male and female, can't wait to see them again.
- Andy Foster

I love Motown, you did a great job, all the classics, loved it!

Weve hired them on any number of occasions, and they never fail at beating our expectations. Theyre punctual, polite and professional! Whats more, their musical ability beggars believe! Their show has dance floors packed the entire night, regardless of venue or location and their gear and musicianship is spot on.
- Simon Berriman

"Another outstanding show!! I personally think that was your best yet!! Very strong, powerful and loads of passion and soul!! Yet again, a pleasure to work with you all. I only wish a few of the other acts were half as professional!!"
- Geoff Brine - Grantham - October 2009

"Just a little note to say thank you to kelly and all the team for helping to make our wedding such a memorable occasion The Motowners and J'amy Winehouse was fantastic and exceeded all of our expectations. The guests absolutely loved them. Thanks again."
- Dean & Elle Remblance - Wedding

"Incredible, Fabulous & Professional are but a few words to describe the completely Unmissable and Immaculate Motowners! Immense stage presence with a set which fully encapsulates all the classic and much loved Motown hits, a true stage spectacular with hair styles, musicianship, dance moves and the superb voices which really take you back to the Motown era with a bang! Not only is the show phenomenal but as a festival organiser, I can highly recommend working with Kelly and PX Productions which bring you the Motowners. Working with professionalism, energy and enthusiasm makes running a Music
Festival enjoyable and worthwhile and you couldn't wish for more when working with these guys!
There is also a huge Thank You to you all for putting on such a fantastic show for Charity!"
- Mrs Kelle Nixey - Chalgrove Live Music Festival 2009, in aid of Oxfordshire Crossroads - August09

"The best band we have had here by far, I hope we can arrange another night soon"
- Owner, Paul - July 2009

"I have had not a single bad comment about the Motowners and a very large number of good ones. No one can remember the dance floor filling so early and staying full until the very last note. They were fantastic and contributed massively to what was a very successful evening. I would very heartily recommend them.
- Thank you SJE! - David"

Thank you so very much for performing at our Wedding. The Show was enjoyed
by all!Thank you for helping us to celebrate our special day. With love
Mr & Mrs Banfield Wedding Reception, Melton Mowbray August 2009

Steve and I would like to thank you and the rest of the band for playing at our wedding on 11 July. We really enjoyed the music, as did all the guests.
We received lots of positive comments about the band and everybody was dancing including 70 year old relatives! We were all sad when you announced your last song. You were also really helpful before the wedding and provided lots of reassuring information. We would recommend you to anybody organising a wedding or other party. We hope you do really well in the future.
