Kodiak Avenue performing acoustic country music at a rustic wedding

"Incredible acoustic duo – absolutely made our night!
 

We hired Kodiak Avenue for our beer festival style wedding party, and they were phenomenal from start to finish. They travelled all the way over from North Wales to be with us, and right from the beginning, their communication was incredibly clear. They stayed in touch constantly in the run-up to the big day, which gave us complete peace of mind.

They provided fantastic setlists for us to choose from, and they let us completely curate our own entire set from their massive back catalogue. Because of this, they played a set made up exclusively of our favourite country songs. As a live country music act, they are exceptional. The lead vocalist is a truly talented country singer, and together as an acoustic duo, their sound is incredible. Their voices harmonise incredibly well giving a fantastic "full" sound.

They played all the best country hits and really knew how to work the crowd, getting everyone up on their feet singing and dancing along. If you are looking for fantastic live music for your event, we cannot recommend Kodiak Avenue enough!"

Book acoustic singer for weddings in Cheshire

"Kodiak Avenue are the best act we could ever have hoped for at our wedding. Communication leading up to the event was fantastic, and they delivered over and above our expectations (which after seeing them online were already pretty high!). They nailed our first dance before switching up the playlist to crowd pleasers as the dance floor picked up. We are SO happy that Kodiak Avenue came to support our wedding and it's been such a talking point since our wedding day."

"Just to say Kodiak Avenue performed at our Dad's 100th Birthday party. They were absolutely amazing, so talented, and brought a fabulous, upbeat vibe to our party. They truly deliver fast-paced, catchy melodies singing rock, pop, and country. They can turn your party, wedding, any venue to getting literally everyone onto the dance floor. They are reliable and committed to providing the best entertainment you could possibly want. I cannot recommend them enough. They are two very talented individuals who deserve to go to the top of their profession. So book them before they become too famous. We are still listening to their music because they sound so good. Thank you Kodiak Avenue."

- JACQUI (PRIVATE PARTY), WIRRAL

"I’m so glad we booked Kodiak Avenue for our first festival. What a wonderful couple and a perfect musical addition to the day. Jayne’s gorgeous singing is beautifully complemented by the seamless acoustics. They were very professional but approachable and friendly and were more than happy to accommodate our needs on the day. Even when the festival posed problems, Kodiak Avenue gave a beautiful and emotional performance. We’re hoping that we can book them as regulars for our annual festival. Thank you Kodiak Avenue, you really were wonderful. It was a pleasure to meet you both and hopefully not the last time we'll work together. I asked you to play for us after listening to you on your website but I have to say that actually hearing you play live was so much better. Looking forward to seeing you again next year. What a perfect musical addition to the day. Thanks again both xx"

- RHIANNON (MUSIC FESTIVAL)

"Can't recommend Kodiak Avenue enough after they played for us at a family party. They were friendly, accommodating, and professional, but more importantly, talented! Aside from a beautiful voice and exquisite guitar playing, they pitched the playlist just right with some lovely song choices. It was a garden party so lots of distractions going on (small children etc.) but they managed to deliver a brilliant set in a very relaxed way. My parents were really happy with how the music went, as was I and everyone I spoke to."​​​​​​​

- LOU (GARDEN PARTY)

"Your choice of songs was perfect, and you tailored your performance to suit the mood and atmosphere of each moment, whether it was the ballads during the ceremony or the lively tunes at the reception. Our guests couldn't stop raving about how incredible the live music was. Your talent, professionalism, and genuine passion for what you do shone through in your performance, and I would recommend you without hesitation to anyone looking for an amazing act for their special occasion."

- JADE (WEDDING)

"A huge thank you for performing at our hog roast. Your selection of songs was ideal and suited the event very well. I asked you to perform for us after listening to you on your website but I have to say that actually hearing you sing live was so much better. Lovely music and beautiful vocals. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend you time and time again."

- JONATHAN LEWIS (HOG ROAST), STAFFORDSHIRE

"Simply the most amazing duo, incredible voices, sound and overall vibe whilst also being two of the loveliest people."

- CORPORATE EVENT, WILMSLOW

"Kodiak Avenue perform country music as it should be. Great songs, a guitar that does what it needs to without drowning out the actual lyrics... Country music is huge at the moment, and the UK country scene is bigger than it's ever been. I've watched a few sets by them live, and have been listening to them on YouTube and I like them. I like them a lot! Take a listen yourselves and check them out."

- MARK

"Kodiak Avenue performed for us in our garden on a gorgeous Saturday afternoon. Jayne's lovely voice soared above the murmur of the guests, complemented by clever guitar accompaniment. Many friends and family complimented us on our choice. We let them choose their own set, but they were open to our suggestions and genuinely anxious to please. We loved having them perform for us and recommend them highly. It made a great day something special."

- JON & LINDSEY (GARDEN PARTY)

- DIANE F. (CHRISTMAS PERFORMANCE AT CELTIC MANOR RESORT)

Kodiak Avenue are a sensationally good duo: Jayne has, by some distance, one of the country's best pop and folk voices. Her soaring, pitch-perfect vocals bring great songs to life and send a shiver down the spine. Ifan's sensitive and intricate guitar work is a perfect counterpoint. Together the chemistry is powerful stuff. From clubs to full-blown concerts, weddings and special events, Kodiak Avenue have a growing and enviable reputation for delivering the goods time after time. The proof is in the cheers and the applause...and the repeat bookings.."

- PAUL N.

"Kodiak Avenue.. One of the best acoustic duos in the area. Possibly even in the UK. I have had the privilege of being on the same bill as these lovely people on a few occasions and have never been disappointed by them. Supremely confident in every song they play, and it shows with some very nice guitar work, and beautiful vocals from Jayne. I recommend Kodiak Avenue to anyone who likes music."

- TONY

"Kodiak Avenue are an amazing duo. They sound even better live than on the recordings. The sound is so pure and relaxing, they are a joy to watch. We often visit their website to listen to their music and always look forward to hearing the new songs they add to their set list. We would recommend them to everyone."

- BEVERLEY (HOTEL GUEST)

"Professional class act. Jayne's voice is stunning and perfectly matched by Ifan's great guitar work. They have great song choices on their set list and are happy to learn songs for you. I have seen them perform several times and I would highly recommend!"

- DEAN J. (CORPORATE EVENT)
