“The Foley Artists were an incredible vendor and made our wedding so special. The process from booking them to the wedding day was very easy and enjoyable. One of our must haves for our wedding day was for the music on the dance floor to be a good vibe and to have everyone up and dancing, The Foleys Artists delivered! We had so much fun and so grateful that they made the day so memorable.”

“Thank you so much to The Foley Artist. The perfect combination of chill and party!

A special shout out to Uncle Keiron on the the saxophone. We were both really looking forward to the saxophone and this component of the night exceeded our expectations. Our dance floor was pumping thanks to you.

Thank you again 💓”

“Brendan and I absolutely loved The Foley Artists’ beautiful acoustic renditions of our favourite music.  These songs are very special to us and they captured them perfectly.  We cannot recommend them highly enough – Hugh and Declan are exceptionally talented and creative musicians.”

“We would just like to say a HUGE thank you to the incredible team at the Foley Artists! The day went so incredibly smoothly and efficiently, we didn’t even notice when they moved location with ease.
The boys absolutely read the room, knowing when to transition to acoustic and then to bigger dance songs! We had the busiest dance floor and nobody left once the dancing got started. I’ve even had guests ask whether the boys make a playlist so they can listen again.

We could not recommend the team enough, thank you so much for being a part of our special day!”

“The Foley Artists were an incredible addition to our wedding in September 2023. They really created the vibe we were going for and played acoustic music the whole day and evening. My husband’s family has an Irish background, so you can imagine the dancing when they played the Irish tunes! It really meant everything to us to be able to have this amazing trio (and Roadie Russ) at our wedding. I also LOVED who easy it was to communicate with them and Erin was so lovely and responsive from behind the scenes. I knew we were in good hands, which is what really takes the stress out of planning a wedding (especially from interstate). Thank you all kindly for your role in our special day!”

“I find it hard to put into words just how much The Foley Artists did for us on our wedding day and the lead up to, but I’ll give it a crack. We had booked the guys in for our original wedding date in December but with 4 weeks notice we had to change our wedding date and venue; we were so fortunate that Russ barely batted an eyelid and said this was all more than okay, they could still be there! Three days before our wedding we found out that neither of my parents would make our wedding day due to my Dad’s health. Erin from The Foley Artists organised to live stream the wedding and travelled to Launceston to do this especially for us, she even made sure my Mum knew how to set it up. Throughout our wedding Russ and Erin captured every single moment so that my Mum could watch and my Dad could listen from home, they didn’t miss a thing. It was the most incredible act of kindness. Hugh and Hannah (so freaking talented) played beautiful acoustic sets before and after our ceremony and when the cake was cut they transformed into a DJ duo that made everyones feet stick to the dance floor. Each and every one of our guests were up there shaking it and and have commented on how amazing they were. The Foley Artists helped us to slip into a bubble of happiness for the night. We felt immediately like they were our friends. There was never long between a friendly word or cuddle from Erin or Russ during the night. They have gone above and beyond for me and my family, they made our wedding day. If you are currently planning your wedding, make booking The Foley Artists the number one job on your list. We will be forever grateful for what they did for us.”

“As soon as I got engaged I knew I had to book the Foley Artists for my wedding. I’d watched their work for years and they are all remarkably talented musicians, who can adapt any song and style into something magical and unique. It was very special to be able to pick some of my favourite songs, and have them played live as acoustic versions during the key moments of my wedding. I knew I was in safe hands from the start, and the entire process went smoothly and was stress-free. Aside from their technical skills, one of the biggest assets of the Foley Artists is their personalities, and they will get everyone on the dancefloor with their killer DJ + sax combination.”

“We just wanted to send you guys a big heartfelt Thank-you for the incredible and professional music you provided for our big day.

Every aspect was perfect and we felt you really took on board our style and read the crowd incredibly. The acoustics for the start of the day were just perfect, and so many people commented on the boys talent!

When we transitioned to the DJ set… well the dancefloor was never empty. We had people dancing we’d NEVER seen on a dancefloor before!! Uncle K-dogg on the sax was an absolute hit and really added that extra element, everyone LOVED him! You guys worked so seamlessly with the other vendors and your communication leading up to the big day was great and lightened any stresses.

We can’t thank you enough for helping us have the dance floor and wedding of our dreams!”

“We have just returned from our honeymoon and we just wanted to say a massive thank you for playing at our wedding. We were adamant that our wedding date had to fit around your schedule and we are very glad that we did. We were only disappointed that we couldn’t hear more of it as we missed out on most of your playing during the canape hour.
You guys nailed our first dance song, we still can’t believe how good that was! We can’t wait to see the video from Richie.

Lastly, the DJ’ing was spot on, all the songs we requested were perfectly blended into other dance floor classics. Thank you for also taking on some minor MC duties, this really made the night much less stressful.

All our guests had an amazing time and were raving about you. Some of them want you to make the trip to their weddings on the mainland.

Hopefully we get to hear you play again soon.

Thank you again”

“The Foley Artists did a fantastic job of making our special day even more special. They are excellent musicians and DJs. They played beautiful renditions of meaningful songs during the ceremony, during canapés and for the dances. They then put the dance floor into action with a DJ set. They were lots of fun, and lovely people to talk to. Thank you to the whole Foley Artists team for great communication, a great performance and making everything run so smoothly. Would definitely recommend for a wedding, event or special occasion.”

“The Foley Artists were absolutely amazing and integral to making our wedding day so special. The transitions at every stage of the day were seamless. The music went a long way in setting the mood throughout the ceremony and garden party. It would also be remiss of me not to mention that the dance floor was EPIC! We had such a wonderful day and couldn’t have asked for better music to accompany it.”

“The the Foley artists Declan and Hugh were so amazing on our wedding day! They went above and beyond to please us. It poured with rain on our wedding day so we had to change location last minute, the boys stayed back at the location longer than planned to entertain my guest. They also had everyone up dancing at the Reception! We can’t thank you enough for everything!”

“Hiring The Foley Artists was easily the best decision we made for our wedding. Our requested acoustic songs were so incredibly perfect, along with all their other songs they played live pre and post ceremony, amazing. To then kick the party off as the most incredible DJs who kept everyone dancing on the dance floor the WHOLE NIGHT. All our guests had incredible things to say and thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment. From working with Erin behind the scenes, organising special requests we had for our day (Thanks Hugh for our song mash up), to Russ, Hugh and Declan who pulled it all off on our wedding day, thank you all for being such an incredible part of our day.
Dan & Jordan xo”

“The Foley Artists blew us and all our guests away on our wedding day. From their beautiful live acoustic performances to their fun and energetic DJ sets, people could not stop talking about them. Declan, Hugh and Roadie Russ are all genuine lovely people who were well organised, fun and easy going. They are so well resourced that it seemed there was nothing they couldn’t do. We asked them to record the vows and all speeches from the day and the sound quality is amazing. Throughout the entire process the Foley’s were accommodating of any requests and went above and beyond what was required of them. If you are planning on getting married, you have to get these guys. We love them and couldn’t recommend them any higher.”

“The Foley Artists…. where do we begin! Hugh and Declan played as an acoustic duo during our ceremony and drinks, followed by a DJ set into the night. They were a perfect mix of chill and party for our day and could not have been happier. Even now, 5 months post the wedding, we still have guests comment on how amazing the boys were on the night. They kept everyone on the dance floor by being able to read the vibe perfectly. Hands down the best wedding entertainment out there!”

“We wanted something truly unique for our wedding when it came to the music, and The Foley Artists delivered just that. They came highly recommended by our wedding planner. The combination of the violin, banjo, guitar and vocals was incredible, both for our ceremony and reception, creating a beautifully intimate setting. They were so easy to work with, and accommodated all of our requests and song choices (including learning new ones). It really made our big day so special, their renditions of classic love songs will give you goosebumps. The DJ set by the twins really got the party started after dinner, they read the crowd so well! Thank you much Declan, Hugh, Hannah and Roadie Russ, you honestly made our wedding the best day we have ever had.”

“We had The Foley Artists play at our wedding in October 2022. They performed acoustic for our ceremony and during the canapes, and then turned it up with an amazing DJ set during our reception and late into the night. We had a guest list that varied in ages, and thanks to The Foley Artists all of our guests were on the dance floor the ENTIRE NIGHT! No one wanted to leave when the buses arrived!

The boys set up in 3 different locations at our venue, and nothing was too much trouble. They provided a seamless experience from the first email, right up until the day. The Foley Artists are professional and dedicated, and absolutely delivered above our expectations. Our guests have not stopped raving about how amazing they were! We would highly recommend them if you are looking to make your event a night to remember!

“I just wanted to say a MASSIVE thank you. When we were planning the wedding I knew we needed to book you guys – it was a non-negotiable for me and we certainly were not disappointed.

You honestly made the day for us. We’ve had so many compliments on the music throughout the day and the dance floor was everything we had hoped for and more.

Thanks also for being so accommodating with the last minute change indoors (literally when the ceremony was meant to start) and just running with it.

We are so stoked that we could get a recording of our aisle song Better Together to keep forever as a special reminder of our day.

Thank you so much for being apart of our wedding. I would highly recommend The Foley Artists to anyone planning an event!”

“The Foley Artists were the perfect addition to our wedding day!

The acoustic set that they played during the reception really helped the atmosphere while people were mingling, and the DJ set for the evening party got everyone so pumped people didn’t leave the dance floor!

They played an amazing mix of crowd pleasers and were so much fun to have around!

So much fun, you won’t regret booking them for your next big event!”

“We were so happy with The Foley Artists, we were a little slow with providing them with our wedding songs, which were a little different to the normal songs, they were amazing and made the songs exactly what we wanted. There was nothing too difficult for them.

On our wedding day, the weather provided a few challenges and we had to move spots unexpectedly with very short notice, this was done quickly with no concern at all. Our bridal entrance was epic, and they pulled off exactly what we wanted. We couldn’t recommend the guys anymore! Loved every single minute of them being a part of our day.”

“The Foley Artists were the perfect choice for our wedding. Their acoustic set in the afternoon was so lovely, while the DJ set was just what our guests needed to let their hair down on the dance floor. The effort they put into learning our songs really showed and we will never forget their performance of I’m in Love with our friend Cash for our first dance. We could not recommend them more highly!”

“Where do we start!

We were so impressed with The Foley Artists. Beyond.

Roadie Russ was so professional and helpful during our first meeting, and in the first two minutes we knew the decision was made. Erin was a delight to deal with and so helpful.

On the day of the wedding, all the logistics were seamless as we moved Declan and Hugh from a boat, to outside, back inside, and back on the boat. The acoustic set was so good on the boat down that they even got a mention in the Father of the Bride’s speech! Uncle Keiron added some serious spice with the sax and the dance floor was completely heaving all night, with a few guests lamenting the lack of one bad song to make a toilet break!

We were so grateful that everyone was so accommodating with our song choices and made the huge effort to cater to our taste. Declan, Hugh and Uncle Keiron were true professionals and put on an amazing show all the way through.

Mum is now cyber stalking daily, Dad still reciting his speech singing the boys’ praise, and all our guests are still “froffing” over the dance floor magic created by The Foley Artists.

Thanks for being such a main part of our special day, it honestly wouldn’t have been the same without you guys! We are forever grateful.”

“Thank you Hugh, Declan and Roadie Russ for being the most awesome band ever on our special day. From start to finish you kept our guests entertained, and took care of us. We had so many guests raving about your music! Couldn’t be happier and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone who’s thinking of having a wedding or high end function. You added a touch of class! Thank you, thank you!!

OMG and of course Hannah! She was amazing and the sound of the fiddle was beautiful.”

“Absolutely amazing! Very talented Musicians.
We loved how engaging they were at their acoustic performance for the ceremony, just fantastic.
Played a really great mix of classic and modern songs at the reception.
Created a fun atmosphere. Our guests loved they were able to do song requests using the QR code.
No other band compares to The Foley Artists! It was a very easy decision for us and highly recommend anyone considering them for their special day.
We loved that it was a family affair with the twins Hugh & Declan with their sister Erin and mother Jen being one of our guests at the wedding.”

“The Foley Artists Duo were such a big part of making our day as special as it was. Our aisle and signing songs were perfect, the acoustic music to start with was great and they kept nearly all of our guests on the dance floor all night with the DJ set! Nothing was too much to ask, and they entertained all our crazy song choices! We had a seperate ceremony and reception location, and the transition was seamless between the two. So many of our guests told us in the following days how great the music was! Thank you so much Declan, Hugh and Russ! Couldn’t recommend you any higher!”

“All our incredible vendors strongly encouraged us to hire the Foley’s – and boy are we glad we did. Our love story started at Salamanca Markets where Hugh and Declan used to busk, having them at our wedding was such a beautiful reference so how it all started. The music was everything we wanted and more and the whole booking process felt personal and easy from start to finish. It was as if the Foley’s were part of the guest list. Hands down the best wedding artists out there, Tassie is lucky to have you!”

“We had The Foley Artists play at our wedding in January 2022 and could not have been happier with the vibe they created all day. They first played as a trio during the ceremony / drinks and then Hugh & Declan DJ’d into the night (with a special feature from their Uncle on sax!). We had so many people comment on how good they were, both acoustically and as DJ’s – the dance floor literally did not stop all night. Honestly incredible and one of our favourite vendors for sure!!”

“The Foley Artists were the first vendor we booked. We loved their style, vibe and most of all their music. After two years in lockdown, we wanted to throw the biggest party ever and it was a must that everyone was on the dancefloor. The Foley Artists delivered that plus some. I had a friend say to me “one of my highlights of your wedding was the music at the ceremony, it hit different being live”.

We are so grateful and we cannot recommend these guys enough, we actually made a playlist with their song choices at the reception so we can relive it over and over. To any future bride and groom, do not waste a second booking them in!!

Absolute A team. X”

We had so many guests on the day and the days following comment on how great they were acoustically (everyone loved the covers and the banjo!) and also as DJs. The dance floor was heaving and every guest was dancing their little hearts out at once stage! The boys agreed to play an extra couple hours for the after party which kept the party going. They also streamed the ceremony, speeches and first dance so our loved ones could join in on the day remotely. Thanks Declan and Hugh, you’re the best!!”

“If you want to guarantee a packed dance floor – you need the Foley’s! They took our extremely eclectic suggestions and turned them into a seamless playlist. The vibe they created could not have been more perfect – from the chilled relaxing acoustic set for the ceremony and pre-dinner drinks to the perfectly timed ‘kick off your heels and dance the night away’ DJ set after dinner. We have had so many compliments it’s ridiculous! P.S We’re really sorry for blockading the exits as you tried to pack up but you really were so good that we didn’t want the tunes to stop…”

“The Foley Artists. We’ve re-written this thank you about ten times by now. Whatever we seem to write doesn’t seem like enough. Hannah, Declan & Hugh (and Erin & Roadie Russ), you are simply incredible. Years ago, when we were talking about getting married in Tassie we did a trip down here and saw you perform ‘Tamlin’ at The Whaler. We looked at each other and said “that’s exactly what we want”. To hear you play our favourite songs, and then absolutely nail the Irish brief was incredible. After you finished The Auld Triangle, Conor’s best friend and brother-in-law hugged for an awkwardly long amount of time (like legitimately three minutes) because you had made them so happy and yet homesick too! You captivated our guests and we are forever grateful. Our favourite memories from the best day of our lives have you as the soundtrack. That’s really special. We consider ourselves so lucky that you played our big day.”

“We had The Foley Artists play at our entire wedding, from ceremony, to acoustic music through the dinner, to an amazing and vibrant DJ set for the dance floor.

These three, and their Roadie Russ, couldn’t have been any more accommodating. Our weather was unpredictable, so they set up in a variety of places, with no fuss, to create the day of our dreams.

The Foley Artists contributed hugely to the success of our wedding. We couldn’t have imagined it without them! They had the guests in awe at the ceremony, mesmerised during the dinner, and absolutely loving life on the dance floor! They even had grandparents tearing up the dance floor!

Our guest have not stopped raving about them and how incredibly talented, fun and energetic they all were!

Our MC had organised that Ring of Fire was her call to the guests to let them know that they needed to be quiet. The Foley Artists got around this 150%, playing and singing behind our MC, and supporting her in every way.

We couldn’t believe it when the bus arrived – NO-ONE wanted to leave, and this is thanks to the amazing Foley boys, for keeping the dance floor alive ALL NIGHT.

Working with The Foley Artists was extremely seamless, and no question seemed to be too much. We would highly recommend The Foley Artists if you want to make your wedding one for the ages! We can’t thank them enough.”

We have had so many guests rave about their acoustic set, and they managed to get so many of our guests up and dancing. It was such an amazing feeling that nobody wanted it to end, and after having to postpone once due to COVID, we were all well and truly ready to let our hair down. Thank you so much for helping make our day such a success, I would absolutely recommend The Foley Artists to anyone in a heart beat. Absolute legends!!”

Eg ‘They were playing Dylan as we got off the boat. Now they are the DJ’s’. I can not recommend them more highly. I would hire them again in a heart beat. So easy to work with, including a lot of uncertainty with COVID. Plus, how cool do they look?! Thanks for helping to make our day so much fun team Foley’s.”

“We had the Foley Artists trio play at our January 2021 destination wedding.

Being from Queensland we flew down to Tassie a year before the wedding to book vendors. We met with Russell and discussed what we wanted for our band and right from the beginning he was so easy to talk to and later to correspond with….kindly answering numerous emails and messages. My husband is a musician so music was always going to be a very important part of our day. The Foley artists were outstanding! Every one of our guests commented on how good they were. For my processional I wanted a classical piece, which the band learnt and then performed with their own unique style and it was perfect! My husband and MC wanted to perform a unique reception entrance song with the band and they were very accommodating, organizing a rehearsal and learning the song. It was the best entrance I have ever seen! The trio swapped to DJ mode and the dancing started and did not stop until the boys packed up. I don’t think I got off the dance floor all night.

Thank you so much to the Foley Artists for making our special day so memorable and so much fun! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a band for their wedding, I cannot praise them enough.”

“A huge thank you to The Foley Artists!!

Declan made the dance floor at our wedding the place to be… all night long!

From the moment we walked in, the vibes were excellent and he basically timed everything for us on the day, with the help of our celebrant – who needs an MC?!

The tunes were killer, the dance floor started early and went well into the night!  We had so many comments about the music and how epic the dance floor was, and reflections on how much fun everyone had, in the days following.

Atmosphere is so important and Declan absolutely nailed it!

Thanks again guys!”

“Planning a wedding during a pandemic is extremely difficult but The Foley Artists made it so easy for us. From the initial phone call through to the actual wedding day, the process was quick, simple and no fuss.
Initially we only booked Declan and Hugh for a DJ set for the reception but because they had set up early, they were extremely generous and offered to play an hour acoustic set. They blew us away! They are so talented and really set the good vibes for the night. They’re so fun and are great at reading the room, playing great songs that got everyone onto the dance floor. Our family and friends loved them so much and couldn’t stop complimenting us on how great the night was.
Thank you so much for joining us and bringing such good energy! You really made our night unforgettable and we can’t wait to see you guys again.”

“The Foley Artist where outstanding! The acoustic songs they preformed with the fiddle, banjo and guitar was breathtaking both at the reception and ceremony. When it got to the dance floor they came into their own and had the crowd craving more. Communication from start to end was seamless and they were more than happy to accommodate requests. They are fun and relaxed professionals, and we could not have been happier with their performance.”

“The Foley Artists helped make our special day even more wonderful than we could have imagined. Their acoustic songs in the garden to the great dance tunes later on in the night, everything ran smoothly and perfectly. The whole crew were more than willing to listen and adapt to any requests we made, as well as learn songs for us. We are so glad and thankful that The Foley Artists were the entertainment at our wedding. All of our guests loved them and they helped make the positive, loving atmosphere that we only dreamed would be present with all of our loved ones. Thank you guys, we could not recommend you more highly xx”

“We recently engaged Hugh and Declan, ably supported by Jen “roadie” to play at our wedding at Port Arthur. We heard them play at Derwent Estate Winery back in Feb / March this year and we were sold. Very talented musicians and delightful young men as well. We were so pleased with the acoustic sets and the DJ playlist. Highly recommend this talented family and both Roadie Russ, Jen and Erin are a delight to work with as well. Thank you  Five Stars *****”

“We had our wedding an hour out of Hobart and the boys were amazing! They were at the venue and set up by 11 – the staff at the venue said how amazing they were as well.

The music played was perfect, at our request we let them play what they wanted and we couldn’t find fault. Our guests loved the relaxed style and appreciated that Declan and Hugh were so personable.

The music, vibe and attitude really was more than we could have asked for and definitely felt like they were part of our friends within minutes. I would strongly recommend if you want local talent, that can give you the ultimate chill, fun but also pop music acoustic vibe that you look no further than the Foley Artists.”

During the reception we asked for music that people of any age would want to get up and dance to. And they played exactly that. Myself, my husband and our guests had so much fun dancing that we didn’t want to leave, and we have the Foley artists to thank for that.
They listened to what we asked for and delivered exactly what we wanted. They are so professional and dedicated to providing exactly what you want for your day. I would happily recommend them to any family or friends needing a band or dj (or both) to set the tone for their event.”

‘We could not have been happier with choosing the Foley artists for our wedding day. The boys were relaxed but professional and were accommodating to all our requirements. The whole process from our initial enquiry and first meeting with Russell and the boys, to the ongoing communication in the lead up to the wedding was seamless. We opted to have the boys for the whole day and night, starting off with their acoustic duo and finishing with an epic DJ set. Countless guests commented on the boys talent, saying it was the best music they’ve enjoyed at a wedding. We can’t recommend them highly enough for any function!’

“The Foley Artists were exactly what we wanted when it came to music for our wedding. They were able to achieve the relaxed vibe we were going for.
They took care of all the logistics so we didn’t have to worry about anything.
Everyone had a fantastic time and the guys knew exactly what type of music to play to suit our guests as the evening went on. Highly recommended!
Also, receiving the recordings of our ceremony and speeches was really special, it’s something we will treasure in the years to come!”

“The Foley Artists and their team are amazing to work with. Planning our wedding from interstate threw up a few challenges, and choosing the musical entertainment was certainly one of those. Once we had contacted the band, any nerves were quickly calmed by Russell’s prompt and informative communications. When the big day came around, Hugh and Declan absolutely nailed it. Their acoustic set during dinner thoroughly impressed our guests (and us!) and their song choices for the DJ set were spot on. We had such an incredible time and The Foley Artists were a huge part of that.
Thanks again guys!”

“We had Hugh and Declan play at our wedding in mid December 2019. I can honestly say that they were one of the main contributing factors to what made our wedding such a success. These guys managed to entice nearly all of our 150 guests to the dance floor and keep them there all night which was nothing short of a miracle.
We saw them play at another wedding and asked to reserve them there on the spot. Their amazing versatility means that they can entertain for the entire duration of the wedding and we never had to even think about organising any other music. As an added bonus they are some of the nicest guys you’ll meet.
You will not regret booking these guys for your wedding.”
