Alex Liberman, What can I say, they were absolutely superb.

I had Higher Ground play at my wedding. What can I say, they were absolutely superb.
They were extremely tight and at one as a band.
The lead vocalist had the audience in the palm of her hand and the choice of material was nothing short of perfect!
All the guests bar none shared this view, so many thanks and could you please pass on all our compliments to the band.
Kind regards and many thanks,
Alex Liberman

Matt & Gilly Oliver, Higher Ground were brilliant, as you said they would be

Higher Ground were brilliant, as you said they would be! They did at least four encores and then played on for an extra 20 minutes or so at the end, with our guests shouting for more! Matt & Gilly Oliver
