Ok…It has taken me far too long to write this. I confess I’m forgetful. However, one thing I haven’t and won’t forget is how incredible these guys are. I got married October 2017…almost 9months later I still have people commenting on just how incredible this band were. House of Chords are fantastic. Honestly. We booked them at quite late notice (far later than I was comfortable with because my hubby to be was being very picky about the sound he wanted). We loved that they have an eclectic repertoire and weren’t afraid to ditch the “really popular songs” from their set list in order to accommodate our tastes (there are a few songs we feel are way overplayed at weddings).
On the day, they set up smoothly and were quick to introduce themselves to us in person. We had a decidedly uncommon first song choice (Walking on the Waves by Skippinish) and unfazed they found it for us. After this from a recording they kicked into a live set for which I don’t remember there ever being an empty dancefloor. From the moment they picked up their instruments to the moment they put them down people were up and dancing, singing along and having fun.
You can tell the band love what they do and their enthusiasm is infectious. As the live set wrapped up and we moved into the DJ-ing section of the night, the party songs came out and I distinctly remember a group of our guests teaching the band the cheesy dance routine for “Saturday Night”.
I honestly cannot recommend these guys enough. Incredible band, great readers of group mood, infectious energy. Book them – you won’t regret it.
