The Coolers are possibly the most talented party, Wedding and corporate event band performing in the Northwest. With powerful vocals and a commanding stage presence, the boys put on a passionate spectacle that really gets any crowd going. They have a vast and eclectic set list (click here) ranging from the 60s through to songs from the charts today and they always have their own slant on songs so sets are always different from the average cover band. The band also includes many of the Country's finest saxophonists in their ranks, which again is something that differs them from many of their peers.

The band can be booked in any form from 4 piece up to 9 piece to suit your budget, and can include an excellent female singer. Here are some tracks from the band for you to listen to:

“We have hired a few bands before for Corporate Events but none of them have compared to The Coolers. They were exceptional. We will be using them again in the future”

Dan Turner - Vice President, Hewlett Packard Information Security

Dear Gavin,

I’ve had nothing but great feedback today since being back in the office – everyone thought you guys were excellent so again, a huge thanks to you all for contributing to the success of the evening. A few people have said they’d like to go along to future gigs of yours so if you have anything going on down this way, let me know.

Hi Gavin

Just wanted to say a huge thank you to The Coolers for providing the entertainment for our wedding last Friday at Thornton Manor - we had a brilliant time, as did all the guests who said that the band was excellent and knew how to work the crowd.  No one else complained about how loud it was (these old people get a bit funny about things like that) but it was lovely of you to come and check if it was bothering me.

We would definitely use you at other events and would not hesitate in recommending you to friends and family.

Best
Jane & Nik Stuart - Wedding November 2010

Hi Gavin,

Just checking my emails now back from honeymoon and was going to drop you a line anyway to say thanks so much for everything. The entire day was absolutely magical from start to finish and your guys were a big part of that; Andy the DJ as well as the band.

I don't know how often you/they get asked for encores at little gigs like that, but it certainly reflects how much fun everyone had that we had people shouting at the wedding for the band to keep going! We had so many people commenting to us in person on how good the guys were as well, and several more asking for your details for future reference should they need a band!!

So a fantastic time had by all and you may have drummed up some more business through it as well! Sincerely, many thanks again for all your help!!

All the best,

Neil & Jen Kerns - Wedding October 2010

Gavin,

Both Marianne and I wanted to say a big thank-you for playing at our wedding on the 21st of August. We both had a lovely night and very much enjoyed your voices and choices of tracks. You made a fabulous contribution to our reception.

If we can ever be of assistance with a recommendations or references please feel free to let us know.

Thanks again

John King and Gavin Jones have been gigging together for many years in top covers band The Coolers, and are now offering the option to book them as a duo for background and early evening gigs at events such as Weddings, Corporate affairs and product launches.

PROFESSIONAL DJ for the evening

'The Coolers' have been gigging for around 5 years, and have seen many DJs during their adventures, and its far to say that not many of them have impressed. You can get many who continually talk all night, some who sing over the tracks and others who just have terrible equipment and taste in music! As a result, they have built up close relationships with around 10 professionals, who in their opinion, are top quality. The band can offer these DJs as part of their package, people who not only do a professional job and are well presented, but who also complement the band and ensure that the evening part of the day, is a complete success.

Our DJs have good equipment, play good music to cater for all types of wedding guests and are thoroughly professional in their outlook. They usually play from a 7pm set-up, through till a 1am finish, with the band playing in between from 9.30 or 10pm for 1.5 hours.
