Thanks again for absolutely making our night, you guys were fantastic and everyone loved what was played!

Thank you and your fellow players for Saturday’s performance. I have had several folk comment on the quality of the music which clearly they enjoyed. also lovely you backed granddaughter Violet singing “Yesterday” - a huge and touching surprise for me.

They are an exceptional band and very professional. They made the evening go perfectly and I have received many positive comments since.

The band were spectacular and we loved all the choices of songs and peeps were very impressed with your delivery. I’ve been asked for your name a number of times!! Thank you!

We just wanted to thank you and the band for your hard work on our special day! We received so many compliments about you guys! You guys got everyone dancing as well which was great!

Thank you so much for the most wonderful evening. You guys bring so much energy and life to the party. All of our guests commented on how great the set list was. You guys really know your stuff! We were so sad when the music stopped as we could have danced the night away! Our first dance to live music was incredible and special. It was really special our brother and cousin were able to jump up for a song. Thank you for doing that!

Thanks so much to you and your band for playing at oul Christmas Event for a second year! Our team had a fantastic evening and really enjoyed your music. We’ll be sure to recommend you to anyone looking for a band!

We absolutely loved having you guys be part of our day and could not recommend you guys highly enough!

Then the band was so amazing! The dance floor was pumping the entire time which was such a credit to you guys and your performance

You guys read the room perfectly in terms of the set list and songs you played - we had a blast!

We’ve lost count of the number of people who have commented on you guys and it has all been very positive feedback - so we have definitely been spreading the word!

You guys were absolutely outstanding, and I am so stoked you were able to be our main event for the evening! You had the dance floor heaving and played absolute bangers that suited every guest whether they were 20 or 60. All the feedback we received about Black & Gold on the night and over the past week or so has been incredible and everyone has said how great you were. - Penny

Thank you so much for playing Toby and Maree's 50th birthday co-party!! We had a fantastic evening with you guys and heard nothing but stellar feedback from our guests! Everyone was very impressed by your sound and the awesome song selection. You made it so easy to plan in the weeks leading up, and the party itself was a massive hit. We loved having you, and we're looking forward to having you play at our wedding!

On behalf of the Amuri Squash club, I want to say a massive thankyou to the three of you for last night. Incredible entertainment for everyone and massive rave reviews which are rightly so! Yet again you were amazing so THANKYOU!

Everyone really appreciated the way you played to the crowd and chose songs from our playlist that suited the variety of ages.

The only complaint we had from any guests was that the music was too good and they danced so long they missed out on food and had massive blisters the next day ha. So definitely not a bad thing haha!

All in all, we had an absolute blast and the feedback we had from our guests regarding the band was faultless as well.

We just wanted to thank you and the band for you hard work on our special day! We received so many complements about you guys! You got everyone on the dance floor!

You guys were amazing! Nailed everything. Thank you so much! We’ve had a tonne of compliments on the band. You made our day very special, the walking down the aisle song was everything we wanted and more!

Thank you so much for Saturday night! You guys were awesome! People were dancing all night Long!!

Black & Gold were an absolute hit at our wedding - the dance floor was full the entire night! Both us and our guests are still raving about how fantastic the music was! Great communication before the day and outstanding entertainment for our celebrations.

Black&Gold created a buzzing, brilliant atmosphere for our Rooftop Christmas Party. Elly and the band were super warm, talented and professional. Would have them back in a heartbeat!

“Black and Gold played for our company 25th Anniversary event. They were great to deal with leading up to the event and of course on the night. We had lots of people from all ages express how much they enjoyed the music. Thanks so much for being part of our celebration! – Cosgroves.”

“Absolute legends.. I fully trusted that this crew knew what they were doing and boy did they deliver! Black & Gold had us dancing all night long, nailing the bangers with ease! What a team that fit in seamlessly to the party"

Black and Gold were our live band for the first ever Winetopia to be held in Christchurch! Elly and the band are absolute professionals and were very easy to liaise with leading up to the event. As a band they are a group of very talented musicians who play impressively together, and they have a fantastic stage presence. The band put together a great set list that totally fit the tone of our event and that they adjusted to suit our audience on the day, and we had many comments about Elly’s impressive vocals and how enjoyable the music was. Thanks very much Black and Gold for being lovely to work with and for bringing that extra special something to our event!

We had Black&Gold play at our wedding and they absolutely hit the ball out the park! One of the main comments people have been making about the day was how bloody good the band was!

Everything was super easy, they have fab communication and their set list is so good it makes it hard to choose your top picks.

We will absolutely be booking again in the near future, and in the meantime going along to any gigs to reminisce on a night we will never forget!

...I just wanted to get in contact to let you know how amazing we and everyone else thought you guys were on the night. We had multiple people come up to us in the following days telling us that they had never been at a wedding where the dance floor was going off for such a long time. It was an incredible night and you guys played an enormous role in that, so thank you sooo much.

"We can't thank Black&Gold enough for the entertainment that they provided on our wedding night! They were certainly the highlight the evening!"

We so loved having you there, we've had nothing but incredible feedback about Black & Gold! You all sounded incredible and our guests were so impressed, you created such a fun atmosphere and we couldn't have asked for more!

Highly recommend Black & Gold! We asked them to learn some Filipino songs and they delivered! They made our wedding truly fantastic!

Could not recommend Elly and Black & Gold enough - they played during all aspects of our wedding day (Elly during the ceremony and drinks, and the full band for dancing later in the evening). Their set list has so much variety - there is something for everyone, and they were more than happy to learn a couple of additional tracks for our ceremony and first dance. Communication throughout was awesome, and made planning super easy. Thanks Elly and team!

We highly recommend Black & Gold as a band and we have worked with them on a couple of occasions for large community events. Elly and the team were professional, very easy to deal with and delivered great music. We would be very happy to work with them again. 5 stars

We had Black and Gold play our wedding last Saturday and they were amazing! Super flexible, easy to work with and our guests only had great things to say about the music. Would highly recommend!

A massive thank you to Black & Gold.. From the ceremony, reception to the dance floor, you have filled our wedding day with amazing music!

Thank you for making it one big party at night with everyone on the dance floor 💕

You guys rock! We will definitely seeing you around!

Black and Gold played at our wedding in Ashburton recently - we had a 2 piece for the ceremony and 3 piece for the reception and it was just perfect! They were super friendly and professional, and even learnt a few new requested songs for us which they absolutely nailed! Both us and our guests continue to rave about them and the magical night we had. We feel so privileged to have them be part of our special day. HIGHLY recommend

A massive thank you to Black and Gold for making our wedding such a night to remember! There wasn’t a single song where the dance floor was empty. We had so many guests comment on your amazing talents and energy. We couldn’t have asked for more. An incredibly professional and highly organised band to deal with prior to the event as well. See you guys in the pub as soon as we can!Item description

Truly amazing band of wonderful people! I was so lucky to have them playing in Hanmer Springs when I had my hens party, then the beautiful and talented Elly at my wedding doing solo. Amazingly talented people! Thanks as always
