"A band at the Waterside Theatre took Beatles fans on the fastest and most hectic time trip imaginable as they ripped through the history of the world’s greatest pop group. Tribute The Fab 5 took the Aylesbury venue’s Second Space by storm to dash off around 45 songs in a two and a half hour gig that gave new meaning to value for money. Taking a leaf out of their heroes’ book, The Fab 5 worked their socks off in an almost non-stop succession of numbers that covered the original band’s dizzying collection of hits from 1963-70. They deserve the highest praise for not only offering a faithful rendition of the Beatles’ hits (many of which are incredibly hard to play and sing live) but a tantalising insight of what it would have been like to actually hear the music live in its day. Standout action featured a triumphant medley from Abbey Road and a stunning rendition of A Day In The Life, while a horn trio added colour and authenticity. There’ll only be one original Fab Four but there’s only really one creditable tribute band and that’s The Fab 5. As Carly Simon sang, nobody does it better..."

"I need more than 10*s! Cracking band who are lively, versatile, quirky and have oodles of personality. So much more than just another covers band. Everyone's been raving about how good the band were at our wedding and we couldn't agree more. Book them now!"

"The Bellas were an outstanding addition to our wedding day. They sang our first song beautifully and had the grace and humour to make the night fun with lots of quirky dancing! I would definitely hire again! Every guest mentioned their talent and skill in getting the party going - even 3 weeks later, they're still raving about the songs. Thank you!"

"What an incredible duo! The Mardy Johnny Depps performed at our wedding, and they were a joy to work with from start to finish. They helped us choose songs that fit perfectly, and their performance was flawless. They’re so easygoing and talented—our guests kept asking where we found them. They really added something special to our day."

"Hi Juma, Sorry I haven’t been in touch sooner as we have only just got back off our mini moon to Aberdeen:) We would like to say a massive thank you to you both for being apart of our special day, the guests absolutely loved the music and made the atmosphere uplifted despite the weather. We hope your journey back wasn’t too bad for you, . Many thanks once again, Claire and Brian"

"We were delighted with Soulcentric performance at our wedding in May 2016. Cool, contemporary and very talented, the band were central to making the evening one big party, which is exactly what we wanted. The band were full of energy and appeared to be enjoying themselves as well, even performing a second encore completely off the cuff, as our demanding guests were loath to let them leave. One of our guests enjoyed it so much they were considering cancelling their own wedding band and booking Soulcentric instead. The band were very accommodating with requests, going out of their way to play a first dance song that isn’t part of their usual set list. The band were easily contactable ahead of the date to answer queries and were punctual and professional on the day itself. Our only regret is that we don’t have another event we can book them for. Highly highly recommend."

"The audience of all ages were "Head over Heels" with Sarah's performance as the original artist "Agnetha" from Abba in "One of Us". Fantastic-she was "A Super Trouper" and we want to "Thank you For the Music" and wished she had sang "On and On and On". Definitely will book Sarah (One of Us) again."

"What can I say? Paul and Ed were consummate professionals from initial contact through to the end of their set at our wedding. Their enthusiasm and playing style were exactly what we were looking for and their repertoire was fantastic. I cannot fault them and would book them again in a heartbeat. As an added bonus for one of our guests, I requested a rendition of Jump Up, Super Star from Super Mario Odyssey and not only did they find and purchase the song, they also converted it to a two piece version for us. Absolute class and would 100% recommend to anyone"

"Dusk Duo - what an amazing duo! I’ve been lucky enough to hear them play on a few occasions now and it’s always such an enjoyable event. From their outstanding original music to their highly unique interpretation of well loved covers, there really is something for everyone. Soulful and heartfelt vocals, talented guitar, genuine & funny interactions and connection with their audience and cheeky twinkle in the lead singers eye mean that they are a duo not to be missed. I’m really looking forward to seeing them at one of their next gigs in November!"

"Motown Memories were absolutely incredible. They played a beautiful acoustic set in the gardens for our drinks reception, then two awesome sets for our evening do. They learnt our requested song for our first dance and played it exactly they way we wanted it, and they had everyone up and dancing all evening! They were also absolutely delightful the whole time, and even let me have a sing myself. We couldn’t have asked for a better band!"
