'We engaged with The Relatives for our large scale (7000) New Years Eve Event on the Picton Foreshore. What a hit they were with the crowd – loved every minute of their high energy performance. From an organisers point of view they were a pleasure to work with – always prompt with replying to any info needed and sound checks etc went incredibly smoothly. Professionals all round – we can’t wait to have another event we can book this band for.'

'We booked The Relatives for Napiers New Years Eve gig at The Soundshell.
They delivered 2 amazing sets of music. The first was in the earlier part of the evening and included some slower well known covers for the crowd to enjoy. The second set had huge energy with some well played covers – they really know how to entertain and we loved having them.
I would recommend to anyone wanting awesome entertainment!'
