"Our wedding was perfect and my wife and I owe a huge thank you to The Band for playing a big part in this. The rendition of the first dance was excellent, as was the whole set. Kept people dancing while not being overpowering and adjusted to late timing changes without difficulty. True pros and superstars."

"Saturday night saw the highly anticipated and another eagerly awaited return to ‘The Crown’ Family Pub and Live Music Venue, 749 Lincoln Road, Peterborough, PE1 3HD, of Top Cambridge Party Band ‘Under The Covers!’ They are ‘Simply The Best’ 3 Piece band that sound like a 4 piece we have had playing from outside of Peterborough! ?? Fronted by the charismatic Lead Singer and Bass player ‘Thomas Pollyn’ ??who literally fanned the audience from start to finish with his legendary ‘Long Necked Bass!’ making no need for our air conditioning!, the band started the 1st set the way they meant to go on with with ‘Summer of 69’ featuring brilliant Lead and backing vocal harmonies from ‘Thom’ and Lead guitarist’ ‘Christian Jones’ ??and it was ‘Party Time’ once again as we were quickly taken back through the decades!??? We then got 3 absolute classics in a row, ‘ Shake rattle and roll’ by Bill Haley and His Comets ? ☄️ from 1955 and ‘Build me up buttercup’ by The Foundations ‘Twist and shout’ by The Beatles, which featured great drumming by ‘Lewis Dunmore’ ? There was some really ‘refreshing’ song choices again from this band! In particular ‘Escape’ (The Pina Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes from 1979!? Great humour in the band! Thom: “This is about a man called Johnny!” Christian: “Where does he go?” Thom: “He just goes!” Lol ?? A great version of ‘Johnny B Goode’ followed with excellent Lead Guitar from ‘Christian! ? ‘Play That Funky Music’ with ‘Thom’s’ bass playing giving ‘Mark King from ‘Funk Band’ Level 42 a run for his money!, ‘I want to break Free’ and ‘The Best’ by Tina Turner took us to one of the definite highlights of the 1st Set! ‘A Message to you Rudy’ by The Specials which was worth the ‘Free Admission Price ‘Alone! ????? ‘Sweet Home Alabama’?? and then ‘500 Miles’ by The Proclaimers closed the 1st set in style and demonstrated again the great diversity in this great band! Set 2 started strongly with ‘Let Me Entertain You’ and ‘Chelsea Dagger’ It was then ABBA time with ‘Does your mother know’ and ‘Mama Mia’?‍???‍♀️?‍?? Next up was the highly anticipated and eagerly awaited Ska 2-Tone section of: ‘Lip up Fatty’ ? by Bad Manners ‘Monkey man’? by The Specials and ‘Baggy Trousers’? by Madness which was awesome! ??? ‘I bet you look good on the Dancefloor’, ‘Sex on Fire’? ‘Teenage Dirtbag’, Mr Brightside’ and ‘Sweet Caroline’ took us to set closer ‘Don’t Look Back in Anger’ by Oasis. A well deserved Encore saw the band play the anthemic ‘Living On A Prayer’ by ‘Bon Jovi’ with again incredible Lead and backing vocals from the band! ???? BIG Thank you to ‘Under The Covers’ who we look forward to bringing back next year! ?"

"House of Chords were simply brilliant; from first contact all the way through to, most importantly, their performance. Thank you so much!! Countless numbers of our wedding guests have said it was the best music they have heard at a wedding, both the actual sets and the DJ music between! We loved every minute of the sets, every song was performed brilliantly and the full dance floor was testament to that. All helped by Mike and the band being great guys, super friendly and consummate professionals - a great talent and very organised / helpful to boot. We would definitely book again next time we need a band! Thanks again House of Chords!"

"We hired this band for a rehearsal dinner at an estate. They arrived early, were extremely professional, and set up well before the event started. The music selection was fantastic and they did it with very little guidance. They moderated the proper volume level throughout the phases of the evening which we also really appreciated. The proprietor of the estate even mentioned how good they were compared to others that visit. "

"We chose this group to play at our wedding reception. It was important to us for our guests to have a good time and we wanted that dance floor full! We had previously seen them at their other gigs and were so impressed with how they got the party started and they sure did not disappoint. They play a mix style of songs to reach out to all age groups and our dance floor was full from beginning to end. The singer's voice is amazing, she just connects and engages with the crowd effortlessly. The lads play with such passion it was hard not to get up and dance! So many of our guests commented on how amazing the band were. We would 100% recommend this band."
