More PicturesTestimonialsNeed to find the best musicians for a special occasion and no idea where to start? In my case, an excellent Peterborough agent suggested City Lights - described as a versatile jazz band just right for a private birthday party and also not far away based around Sheffield. So nothing ventured - what an incredible success they turned out to be. All great musicians in their own right, not least Alice, front girl with the most phenomenal voice. Dancing to their wonderful playing continued into the small hours - we never wanted it to end. Commendation of the highest order to match any function! Jillian Just a quick note to say thank you so much for making our daughter’s wedding day complete. What a wonderful band! A. Turner City Lights were extremely well presented, provided beautiful dinner music and were the height of professionalism. Thank you for recommending them for our awards ceremony.
