The Funtime Frankies

» Profile

The Funtime Frankies have a firm reputation as one of the best party bands in the UK since they began performing in May 2005.

Consistently packing dance floors at every event they play, this live 4-piece will provide an unforgettable show for your guests. There are no gimmicks, no backing tracks, just pure live energy from four suited & booted guys who are all highly talented musicians and experienced performers.

Aside from their onstage skills, they pride themselves on their professionalism and will do their best to make sure that all will run smoothly from the time of booking through to the event itself.

They perform chart music from the 50's to the present that you can dance to - please see the songs page.

They have a full 5kW PA (Logic System 1296 rig), full lighting rig with motorised units and effects and smoke machine, meaning that they can cater for most functions and venues. However if extra equipment is needed this can be organised.

For smaller venues where sound limitation is an issue, they also have the use of electric drums, so the volume can be kept as low as is needed.

» Testimonials

"Dear FunTime Frankies. Sorry it's taken a few weeks to write but we've only just got back from honeymoon. Sonia and I wanted to say an enormous 'thanks' for your performance at our wedding on the 11th October [2008]. We knew you were good when we came to see you in Leeds but I don't think either of us realised just how bloody good you really are. We've had so many comments about it being the best wedding our guests have ever attended with everyone raving about how the band made the evening. It was so great to see nearly all of our friends and family up on their feet for the majority of the night and this was completely down to The Funtime Frankies. We honestly cannot thank you enough, you were absolutely first class. We would have no hesitation in recommending you guys to anybody. Thanks a million!!"
- Mr. and Mrs. M, Last Drop Village, Bolton

"I wanted to drop you a note to say thank you so much for all you did to make our wedding day so special. Our guests haven't stopped talking about you! You were fantastic - great fun and very professional to deal with. Soughton Hall also thought you were amazing and have asked for your contact details. Perhaps you would like to give them a call - the wedding coordinator is Jane. We were so lucky to find you - thank you so much."
- Rachel and Colin, Soughton Hall, Fri 11 July 2008

"I just wanted to say thank you for the fantastic job you did for us on Saturday night! So many of our employees have asked me to tell you how much they loved dancing to the brilliant music and that it was a great way to celebrate 50 Years of our company. You kept the crowds entertained and I couldn't believe the amount of people dancing - all thanks to you! I'm going to recommend you to everyone I meet!"
- Sarah Oakley, Wyeth Pharmaceuticals

"Hi Robin, Yew Han and the Band. Would have written earlier but Ive been on my hols recovering!!!!!!!! Just wanted to let you guys know what a fabulous day we had on the 23rd. and your contribution was appreciated. The feedback Anne & I received from our friends and family has been fantastic, from start to finish everyone had a wonderful time. Before Alex and Dan went on honeymoon they where telling me how many of their friends who had said not only was it the best wedding they had attended but also the best party; this has been reinforced by everyone I've spoken with, from the kids to the grandparents and time and time again the Band was mentioned. The variety of music played coupled with your party attitude to get everyone up and dancing, not to mention your obvious musical talent was the icing on the cake. One of my abiding memories will be when you were performing the last session and virtually every one of our guests were on their feet dancing the night away. We had high expectations for the day and they where exceeded and the Funtime Frankies played a big, big part to its success."
