Reviews
, Erwin en Astrid
We had a fantastic evening, thanks in part to the amazing performance by William Smulders and his band. It was full of energy and passion. We really enjoyed it.
, Kees
For the kickoff of our 30th anniversary wedding, William Smulders' band provided a perfect performance. Our guests were enthusiastic, so we were no less! Good and fast contacts and agreements in advance. Recommended.
June 2026, Henkjan
It was a great performance at our wedding, coordinated with our DJ it was a perfect combination.
, Saar
Pleased with the choice of this band! The communication beforehand was good: fast, flexible and thoughtful. On the evening itself we enjoyed the mix of songs, the quality was very good, the band adapted to the audience and the atmosphere and played with pleasure. Extra nice that they spontaneously ended the evening with our 'first dance' number (unprepared). One tip for the band: tune in if the volume can indeed be louder, we found it a bit too loud at the last part.
, Christiaan
We had a nice day that was very appropriately musical by Lieke and William. Nice repertoire, good voices, music and sound and just very nice people to 'have' a day with.
May 2026, excoautosbv
Everything as agreed upon. The guests and I had a nice evening, recommended.
April 2026, Debora & Robin
Bizar hoe je een diner naar een dansvloer kan omtoveren in 1 minuut. De borden waren nog niet eens van tafel, William speelt 3 akkoorden en iedereen staat op om te dansen. Onze bruiloft is hierdoor extra geslaagd. Echt een groot feest en muzikaal super sterk. Niks op aan te merken. Boek hem!
, Piet
Super good performance he really comes highly recommended. Beautiful golden voice . Golden old songs come alive again . Beautifully sung. You made my evening super. Greetings.
, Dave Fisser
William Smulders was a hit at the PEX Dinner Show on Boxing Day. He knew how to entertain the audience from beginning to end and felt flawlessly when to switch gears: uptempo hits at the right moments, interspersed with a strong ballad that suited the mood of the moment. Also off stage the cooperation was top notch: pleasant to deal with, professional and flexible, which made the evening extra relaxed for the organization. In short: an artist who not only delivers on stage, but also contributes behind the scenes to a smooth and successful show.
, Linda
Nice band good appearance and very good musicians. Nice music genre nice some older music and diverse. Top evening had and the band plays with pleasure.
, Linda
William's performance made my husband's birthday, a true Elvis fan, unforgettable. William created a great atmosphere and is a true professional in singing and playing guitar. I have heard nothing but compliments from the guests. The contact in advance was also very pleasant. Thanks William and sound man for the fantastic afternoon!
, Hans
William it was great
September 2025, M&M
Young and old enjoyed the background duo during the drinks!
, Willem
William and Lieke's performance was truly amazing. They sensed the atmosphere particularly well and got many of our guests swinging and singing along. Furthermore, the singing and guitar playing was very professional. In short: highly recommended.
, Cindy
Thanks in part to Lieke and William's performance, our party was a great success. Everyone had a great time and they got many on the floor. Thanks a lot!
, Trouwfeest
William & Lieke + band are a party in themselves! Great sound, wide repertoire, great songs, great communication, in short fantastic! Hope to see you next time!
, Lotte
For my parents' wedding, william provided music during the ceremony. Played some accoustic beforehand, during the giving away a special song for my mother as a surprise, and during the signing some more act background music. Was perfectly tailored to the moment and william has a beautiful voice!
, Brasserie Drusius
Very professional band! Everyone enjoyed you guys! We will definitely book you again
, opmerking: graag bellen voor aankomst
William Smulders & The Handjives performed at a Seniors' Camping Club (SKC) party night. They played great music from the 50's and 60's. They adjusted their volume perfectly to the audience. There was dancing, but the music was not overpowering so that people could also chat. Definitely recommended!
, Leo
This band started during our dinner with soft and lazy music in a small setting. Then after dinner they made it a great party. The quality of this band is very good with a nice sound.
, Nikki
At first we hesitated to hire a band at our wedding, but how glad we are that we did! It made the party complete. William and the band were fantastic and created a great atmosphere! The dance floor was well filled with all ages :). Communication beforehand with William was smooth via whatsapp. From the guests we received nothing but praise for the music! We can only recommend the band! Therefore 5 stars well deserved!
, Tanja
The duo Maurice and Lieke were fantastic! They performed at our company/family party. Besides the fact that they were extremely good, they involved the audience in a fun way. Chapeau for Lieke to sing Andre Hazes and Dolly Parton on request, was really great!
January 2024, Wes zingt Toon Hermans
What a good performance, the contact beforehand was smooth and everything was perfectly coordinated. The audience was also very satisfied a successful experience that met all expectations!
, Allganized BV
Always satisfied with William!
, Roman
We booked William and the Handjives for our wedding party, and what a great choice it was! From the very first moment, we noticed that William and his band members are truly professional performers. Communication was flawless, and it was reassuring that William contacted the venue to take care of all the practical details. About the performance itself: it was truly unforgettable. We can't find enough superlatives to express our appreciation. Our guests were simply unstoppable on the dance floor; it was all energy and excitement. William and his band members knew exactly how to sense the audience. Sometimes quiet songs to control the mood and sometimes with rousing hits that got everyone swinging. The repertoire was nothing short of fantastic and really spoke to everyone's taste. What really stood out was that even the day after the party, all of our guests were still very impressed with the band. They repeatedly asked where we had found such a great band. So, to anyone reading this who is looking for the perfect musical accompaniment to an event: look no further, book William and the Handjives. They will exceed your expectations and transform your party into a dazzling spectacle that will be talked about for a long time.

It was a great performance outside at the campsite of Hoogstede which takes place outside. There were beautiful songs sung from past and present. The residents enjoyed it enormously. Gr Anneke
, Bossche Kelders
We had Williams and Lieke join us last Saturday for a performance for our guests at the Bossche Kelders. Besides the fact that we enjoyed the music, the professional attitude of the band and their sound engineer was super. Our location is in a vaulted cellar so all equipment had to go downstairs. This was no problem. Our guests were very enthusiastic about the music and danced a lot. They really made it a party. Hope to see you soon at the next fine collaboration. (and another beer). Bossche Cellars.

Really a top-act without fuss. Know how to take the audience along with them in their performance. Nothing but praise!
, Lisa
William performed during the relatives day at our residential location. Residents and relatives enjoyed the performance.
, DrieGastHuizenGroep
He performed at the residential groups with his guitar. Played for 15 minutes at each housing group. Many enthusiastic residents and staff who danced, clapped and sang along. At 1 group there was even a resident who participated with her own instrument, so much fun:)
, DrieGastHuizenGroep
He received many compliments from the residents and staff :)
January 2022, Insula Dei Huize Kholmann
Great performance had outdoors, our residents more than enjoyed the recognizable music. Because this performance is very mobile we were able to provide recognizable music to the residents all around our building.
, Barbara Uree-van Engelen
Top performance, our clients enjoyed it, thank you!
, DrieGastHuizenGroep
William Smulders gave a musical performance at the Hoogstede location on 23 June 2021. The residents were all very enthusiastic and some of them even made a dance, even in a wheelchair. During the music they enjoyed a snack and a drink. This performance is really worth repeating.
, DrieGastHuizenGroep
The residents of Hoogstede enjoyed the performance.
, DrieGastHuizenGroep

, DrieGastHuizenGroep
The performance was super good. It was an outdoor performance and the weather was great. Nice interaction with the audience.
, Josina
William has performed in our nursing home. It was a pleasant afternoon with varied songs. It was great that the residents also enjoyed the Elvis songs and many other recognizable songs. One resident indicated that William may come back again. A pleasant afternoon with listening songs and familiar sing-alongs.
, Linda
The music was really great, great quality but also the songs. The songs that were played matched the residents. They had a great afternoon, especially thanks to William Smulders and Lieke Grey.
, DrieGastHuizenGroep
Nice interaction with the residents.
, Babeth
My mother had a great birthday thanks to the great performance of William Smulders. Evergreens for an hour. She turned 75 today and he gave a coronaproof gig at Villa Vrijland. Highly recommended. A day with a golden edge. Especially thanks to the nice and sweet staff.
, rein
Can sing well and responds very well to the situation.

, Wilma
Professional singer with attention for the guests and well responding, fantastic.
, Remco
Hello William and Lieke, Just a personal email to thank you for a fantastic afternoon. I am 100% satisfied with the presentation, singing and how everything went. Everything was simply great and my guests had the same opinion and my wife has yet to recover from the surprises that day. At the next party I will definitely ask you again and don't even look any further
, Klaas
Live duo William Smulders & Lieke Grey concluded our ceremony in a beautiful, cheerful way. Gives a very nice own atmosphere and was a much appreciated addition to our wedding toast! In the background and at the same time pleasantly present. The guests regularly came to us with the question where did you arrange such a nice band? Nice anyway!
, Daniëlle
Bye Lieke and William, thanks again for your great performance at our wedding! We have only received compliments!
, Peter
Nice person and in terms of music style and presentation everyone is recommended. All appointments were completely fulfilled and William would immediately choose again at the next party. Thanks for the pleasant cooperation.
, Vanessa
We would like to thank you for the special Saturday night on April 27th. In addition to the conviviality among the people, we have greatly appreciated your input and music. This did not lead to a full dance floor, but many people present complimented us on your music and the cozy, relaxing atmosphere. We are happy to convey that to you
, Alexander
You guys responded well to what people wanted to hear. Thank you so much again.

Hi Wiliam! It's been a while, but better late than never. I wanted to say that my parents (and the rest) enjoyed your performance! We've been really happy with you. Had to be said
, Adriënne
We often have a party here and there and when we say goodbye you never hear anything about the band. With us it was a bit different, one after the other, thanks for the party, food was good, but that music was cool! The photographer, who is a fan of Elvis himself and has been performing with his wife for years, asked us to let him know that he liked you so much. The owner of De Lodge, Walter Kats, who has been organizing parties for decades, came to let us know this morning that it had been a very long time since he had had such a good band!
, Peter
William Smulders sang at our 10th wedding anniversary. With his beautiful voice and great guitar playing he entertained the audience very well.

If you want to give a cozy atmosphere to your party you should invite William Smulders

I can advise anyone looking for a good, nice and atmospheric entertainer to book William for the party.
