Review Centre: Covers Bands

"There are no words to explain how amazing eccentric pony was for our wedding this weekend. There are certainly not many wedding bands that will play rage against the machine or steel panther and we are so happy we found the one that not only would, but enjoy playing it as much as we enjoyed listening. We have been overwhelmed with compliments from our guests and will 1000% recommend to anyone we know who needs to hire a band for their event. They were punctual, polite and happy to take requests that were compatible with the vibe we were aiming for. No S Club 7 requests were granted for this wedding! "

"Having reached the ripe old age of 65 this year, my partner organised a big Grumpy Old Gits Retirement Party for me in a marquee in our garden in Pangbourne. We had over 120 attend & most guests came dressed up as Old Gits (Victor Meldrew, Alf Garnet, Compo, Nora Batty etc.) and we needed a local band to get the place rocking, with a wide variety of covers from the 50's to the present day. Found Mike's band Back2Back (just up the road in Wantage) on this site and were not dissapointed. Fantastic set, got everyone up dancing, entertained us with humour between songs and even threw in a wireless solo guitar trip around the whole marquee. Very impressive PA sytem and lights, all remotely controlled by their own Sound Engineer and six musicians who know how to put on a very professional and tight sounding show. Everyone kept asking how we could afford such a good band. The nice thing is, they were so reasonable, we still had change out of our budget to spend the rest on a decent firework display at 10:30 in the evening, and after that, the band played on!! They were so good in fact, that as we organise the annual Pangbourne Village Fete each year, we have booked them as our main act for the second weekend in June 2019. I advise you try them out for your event before then (or come to the fete next year). Absolute rockers, thanks Mike and the rest of the band, see you in June, if not before at another event. Cheers Dave P."

Booked for a private party and they were a joy to work with, great comms and made everything run super smoothly, genuinely nice guys (and support gal!)"

All our guested mentioned how good they sounded and the energy they brought. The lead singer has an amazing voice. The lead guitarist puts chills up your spine. They made the night. Cannot overstate how happy we were. Highly recommend! "

"Here is a belated thank you for your awesome performance at our wedding on the 27th of July at Orchardleigh. You really capped off a magnificent day off for us; you really had the whole room rocking from start to finish, which was just what we wanted. We had so many comments on how good you guys were on the night and have had many chats with various guests since the wedding recollecting on how excellent the band was. We are so glad we chose you to play at the wedding and should we have any other friends with weddings/functions we won’t hesitate in recommending you. Thank you once again you were truly marvelous."

"We booked the Pop Pickers for our Dad's 80th birthday party and they were brilliant! All the songs played from the 50s, 60s & 70s were known by all and got a lot of people up dancing. Communication with Ian was great before the event, and we would thoroughly recommend."

They were full of energy, picked a great selections of songs and really ensured everyone wanted to stay on the dancefloor! It was also great to see all the short clips they took of our evening too. So many of our guests said how amazing they were! Thanks guys! x"

"Volt absolutely ignited the room. For our brand launch, they delivered exactly the energy and atmosphere we envisioned. The vibe matched our style seamlessly, creating the perfect backdrop to months of preparation. From flawless transitions to high-impact moments, they kept the room buzzing and had every guest on their feet. It was fun, dynamic, and unforgettable — the ideal soundtrack to our event. Truly outstanding. I couldn’t recommend them more."
