Hi Jared
Just a big thanks from Lauren and I for the absolute show you put on on Saturday night. Particular thanks to your lead singer who after singing for two and a half hours belted out crocodile rock one last time. It was epic. The dance floor was pumping and we had a blast.
You guys were all awesome.
Cheers

Guys!
Wow what a night on Friday!
You guys were AWESOME, all of our guests were raving on how good you guys were. The music and entertainment was more than what we could ever expect. Some are saying that you guys are the best live band they have seen at a wedding in a long time!
Jo and I are wrapped on how everything went on Friday, but you were one of the major highlights for us for sure!
Your version of singing in my soul was perfect for our first dance! Exactly how we imagined.
Apologies for my slightly below average singing skills, no Dobbyn, but close.
That was wicked and i am still buzzing!
Cheers

Hi Guys!
Holy moly! You were incredible! Our guests are still raving about how awesome the band was and the atmosphere you all set.
Things got a little loose during a few songs, I'm sure you would have had an entertaining view. Thanks so much for playing the Worlds Greatest and Wagon wheel! You guys did an epic job. As did you for our first dance. I really can't thank you all enough. Thanks for making it a night to remember!

This band turned our amazing wedding day into something spectacular. The atmosphere they created was unbeatable and their talent was appreciated by all of our guests. They played a large range of new and old songs, with even a few impromptu requests from the crowd. If you are looking for a younger band with an amazing sound, you cannot beat these guys. Thanks again for making our night.

We booked The Generators for our wedding at Ataahua Garden Venue in Tauranga. What an amazing band! We had such an awesome time partying that night and our guests all raved about how good the band & their song choices were. As we are Auckland based, I had been worried about choosing a band without having a chance to see them first - but needed have worried! The Generators are great musicians and made sure we all had a fantastic night. They also learned our first dance song and put a few requests in their break play list. The dance floor was never empty and Jarred was really good at keeping in contact. Thanks for such a cool night guys - you were my highlight! We highly recommend these guys!!

The Generators played at our staff conference in June and were an absolute hit! We were really nervous about choosing a band for our event because the music can make or break the night, but we couldnt have been more pleased with how well it went. Our group can be a tough crowd to please sometimes but the dance floor was packed all night and everyone was raving about the band at breakfast the next morning.
The guys were great to deal with and were really flexible around the set list. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will definitely use them again at our next event
