We were so glad we chose Function Hub and 1965 to play at our wedding. Gwion was so helpful and nothing was to much! He let us add our guests’ favourite songs to the playlist. It was really nice for us as well to have a Welsh speaking band as most of our guest were Welsh. Everybody had a great time and talking about how professional 1965 was on the day. We didn’t pick the easiest of venue for a band (noise limiter) but they made it work and Gwion reassured us that this would not be a problem! What an amazing night we had, best way to end our wedding day! Diolch yn fawr iawn i chdi Gwion ac i 1965.

Testimonials


The 1965 played our wedding on June 1st. Absolutely phenomenal from start to finish.
They were incredibly friendly and down-to-earth; greeting us when they arrived and setting up without any issue or interruption. They were more than happy to play our music playlist, and when it came to their setlists - wow. An amazing mix of songs - old and new, Welsh and English. Perfect.

Not only did we have Elin Fflur singing (!), but the rest of the band are such incredible musicians and showmen. The dancefloor was full for hours, and it was obvious that everyone had a fantastic time.
Even our English-speaking friends were chanting along to ‘Cymru, Lloegr a Llanrwst’ by the end.

The 1965 recently provided the entertainment for my birthday party in my garden, and all I can say is wow!

Do not have any hesitation in booking them for your event, totally professional, excellent communication, arrived on time, delivered a fantastic set interspersed with playlist music so guests were entertained all evening. Elin Fflur’s vocals are amazing, supported by a band that have a real rapport between them.

My friends and family are still talking about how much they enjoyed the evening, and The 1965 with their professional and personal approach made it truly special.
Diolch yn Fawr!
