What can we say about The Papa Zitas? To say they put on an amazing performance for our wedding would be an understatement. From learning and performing our first song to an exceptionally high standard, (You and I by John Legend.. By no means an easy song to pull off) to having all of our guests dancing their socks off all night long . They truly are an absolutely brilliant band. Both myself and my other half agree that hiring The Papa Zitas was one of the best decisions we made re. the wedding and some of the best money we spent from our budget . While they are the definitive Motown Big Band, their repertoire provides something for everyone and their engagement with the crowd is second to none! Manager Owen is a pleasure to deal with, the Mama Zitas can only be described as a powerhouse trio of exceptional vocalists and the musicians are unbelievably talented in their delivery of that big band sound! If you haven't booked your wedding band yet we would advise any couple to choose The Papa Zitas. You will not be disappointed. We don't know how many of our guests have said to us at this stage that they were the best wedding band they had ever seen.

We planned our Wedding from New Zealand and enrolled the help of my sister when picking a band. She instantly recommend the Zita's and after watching the you-tube videos we where sold. From the get go the band where full of energy, engaged our guest and played all night long! Aine and I will always be grateful to them and would recommend them to any fun loving couple for their Wedding Day.

Hi Owen, We just wanted to say a massive thank you for Saturday night. The band was such a big hit with young and old and I have been getting so many compliments including from my music-loving American uncle who wishes he could have the band play at another family wedding in New York!! We also really loved your version of Flying Without Wings. Really looking forward to seeing the photos you guys have from the night. Thanks as well for the mugs and teddy. We will hopefully see you at a gig soon.

Hey Papa Zita's! We're just back from a deadly honeymoon in Cuba and doing a bit of a dealyed post mortem. Just want to thank you again for the great set and getting everybody moving. So many people were saying how brilliant ye were, it really made the night. Hope you're keeping busy....i'm sure you are. Stay funky!

Hi Papas/Owen, My apologies for taking so long to contact you. Just wanted to say thank you all so much for making our wedding so special (2nd June, County Arms in Birr). We were so delighted with all your music and the guests are still talking about ye! Thanks so much for the first dance song too (At Last) - it was brilliant and of course my favourite Livin for the City had me bopping the night away!
I'm hoping to catch one of your gigs again soon in Cork! Thanks so much again and best wishes for the future.
