Having been to see Porkpie on a few occasions we knew roughly what to expect on the night but they surpassed all expectations. All of my wedding guests keep asking me about Porkpie! Enjoy Yourself was a particular highlight. We would recommend them to anyone for any occasion. Outstanding!

The band far exceeded any expectations both my wife and I and all our guests had. They put on a great, appropriate and well put together performance, had amazing interaction with the audience and were very helpful in setting up specific requests on the day. We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a fun, lively and professional band.
