Freshman Year

“Freshman Year were absolutely brilliant. They went above and beyond in everything they did for us. No request was too much. Our first dance was brilliant, with the pop punk version of Just Like Heaven by The Cure being the icing on the cake as we fully appreciate that it was a more awkward song choice with the band having no synths! We also don't think my sister in law will ever live down the bands version of Stacey's Mom, which is now officially Elsie's Mom in this household. Thank you so much for everything!”

“The band were awesome on the day. Lots of compliments from our guests. They really helped making our wedding the party we wanted it to be. Really great that they did the DJ sets in-between as well.”

“I just wanted to send an email to say thank you to you and the band for an incredible evening reception at our wedding a couple of weeks ago. The band were incredible, we had the best time. They were engaging, involved the audience, read the room and played extra songs we hadn't originally included but absolutely loved and appreciated. We have had so many guests tell us how much they loved the band and have even had some say it was the best wedding they've been to thanks to the band! I was so happy to see so many people dancing including people I didn't think were dancers. They were great sports in allowing Tom to sing Chop Suey with them which he loved and I personally loved Stacey's (Elke's) Mom. Please could you pass this onto the band, we had such a great evening reception and we will 100% recommend them to anyone we can. Thank you so much for helping to make our wedding reception so special and such a memorable evening.”

“Just to say the band were epic, everyone was dancing all night. Learning our First Dance song was super cute! So many compliments off everyone about them! They defo know how to follow the vibe of the guests. Thanks again. Send my love and thanks :D”

“5/5”

“We loved having Freshman Year at our wedding! They kept the dance floor full all night and our guests loved the pop punk hits! They were really easy to work with and brought something unique to our celebration.”

“Oh my god. The band were absolutely incredible. All everyone can talk about is how amazing the band was. We had an absolute whale of a time and the dance floor was full for all three sets. The band were funny, smart in how they planned the set, and just generally got the whole wedding party going. Delighted we chose Freshman Year and hope to book them in future for a birthday or some other excuse to have them back.”

“The band were amazing! The town loved them and think they enjoyed themselves too.”

“Oh my. Freshman Year were so incredible. The dance floor was packed with guests of all ages and it WENT OFF! We had the best night ever and they really made the evening so special! The tunes were millennial magic and we did not want it to be over! My mum particularly enjoyed her version of Stacey's Mom! Thank you so so much for making our wedding even more special, you really were 10/10!”

“The band were amazing! The town loved them and think they enjoyed themselves too.”

“Freshman Year were spot on for our wedding! They had the dance floor packed during their live sets and around them when they were DJing. They read the room exactly right and played things people wanted to hear throughout the evening. We've had so many comments about how great the band were, they really made the night and we had so much fun! For anyone looking for a pop punk vibe with great energy (which exceeded expectations from the preview vids!) we’d highly recommend. We didn’t manage to catch them at any length at the end, but hope they enjoyed themselves.”

“Freshman Year were amazing at our wedding, playing an amazing selection of songs and their performance of our requested song not on the repertoire was incredible. There wasn’t a song they played that didn’t have people dancing to it, would highly recommend and rebook.”

“The band were amazing. They really nailed all our favourite songs whilst sensing the vibe in the room and going their own way too. 10/10 would recommend Freshman Year to anyone!”

“Freshman Year were absolutely phenomenal! Everyone we spoke to loved the band and we had the best time! Even people who don’t typically listen to that style of music were up dancing!”

“A pleasure dealing with Tailored Entertainment, it was great to feel safe booking with a well organised company. Freshman Year did a great job covering our request for the first dance and were more than happy to accommodate our requests.”

“I just wanted to say a massive thank you to Chloe, the Tailored team and the band. They were honestly brilliant, everyone had such a great time and we had so many compliments on them. They were thoroughly enjoyed and the music was ace. They're super talented and we couldn't have asked for more.”

“Freshman Year were incredible! The sets they put together were perfect and their performance was top notch! They were very polite and pleasant to work with and performed our first dance exactly how we wanted it. We can’t recommend them enough, they were the highlight of our reception!”

“Our experience of using Tailored Entertainment and hiring Freshman Year as our band for our wedding was brilliant, very straight forward and easily accommodated. There were no issues with making changes and all queries were responded to in a timely manner. Terms were set out clearly and costs were also clear. The set itself was great with a good choice of songs that got our guests up and dancing along. We also loved that Freshman Year were able to adapt our first dance song to be acoustic even though that version doesn't exist so it was a nice touch. We didn't get to spend too much time with the band but the interaction we had was friendly and we'd definitely hire them again for an event in the future.”

“I don’t know where to start with this one; Freshman Year absolutely made our wedding day. They killed it from the first dance special request (this could not have been more perfect) and all night the music was completely spot on what we wanted. We both love a good party so getting the music for the evening right was a massive deal to us, and I couldn’t be happier with how it went down! So many of our guests commented on how amazing they were too and everybody had an absolute blast - the dance floor was filled with so much fun and laughter all night! What a lovely group of guys too. I can’t say thank you enough for helping us find the perfect band for our day, booking Freshman Year was definitely one of the best wedding decisions we made!”

“Freshman Year were amazing, professional, good sound and had the whole place rocking!! They played with real energy and had a good set list prepared. The dance floor was bouncing, there was even a mosh-pit and the groom was crowd surfing. Can you thank the band so much for making our festival themed wedding magical!”

“The band were spectacular and absolutely made our night. Everyone commented to us about how good they were. Even my mum, who isn't a fan of pop-punk (which is why we booked Freshman Year) said they were amazing. We honestly can't thank them enough. So, so good.”

“Freshman Year provided an amazing soundtrack to our wedding and everyone present had an absolutely fantastic time rocking out to their show. The guys sounded brilliant and played with real energy that got every one up on their feet. I would also like to say a huge thanks to the band for letting me play a song with them, it made the whole experience even more memorable for us and our guests. Thanks again, we loved every minute of it!”

“Freshman Year were absolutely fantastic. They have a clear passion for the music they play, and it came through in their performance. They read the room and responded to the crowd to keep everyone engaged and the party rocking. And they squeezed in as many of both the Bride and Groom's favourites as possible. I will 100% be personally recommending them to friends and family. They were even better live than they are on their promo videos, and were so friendly and professional. The greatest band in the world - not just a tribute.”

“The band were absolutely fantastic. They were punctual, professional, and adapted to requirements of the venue that we had. They also just seemed like genuinely nice guys - really easy-going and friendly. Their cover of our first dance was beautiful and we had so many friends say that the set list made them feel that they had been transported back to their early teen years. I really appreciated that the band got a little moshpit going. The next morning I had no voice left because I had been screaming along to Rage Against the Machine and Nirvana… I would highly recommend this band to anyone who is still a little emo, pop-punk rocker at heart. If you think that the bland, repetitive line-up of Mumford & Sons / Ed Sheehan / John Legend at weddings is about as appealing as a wet sock, then Freshman Year might be right band for you. Any kind of sentimental crooning would’ve made me feel like I was an actor in a low budget rom-com, but headbanging to Blink 182 made me feel like myself on my wedding day. Thanks for giving us the soundtrack that allowed us to completely let go and lose ourselves in the moment - we had so much fun! Please pass along my gratitude to the guys!”

“Freshman Year were incredibly friendly and understanding, having our newborn at the wedding meant our timings didn't exactly go to plan - the guys were true professionals and didn't let this show. They sounded amazing and had a great stage presence, would highly recommend to anyone in love with punk rock!”
