"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! ?"

"Lisa played for our wedding last year and was absolutely outstanding. She made the day even more magical. Lisa was so easy to work with while giving us loads of helpful advice and meeting our every requirement. 4 couples who attended our wedding went on to book her for theirs and were every bit as happy. A remarkable singer and musician. Get booking!"

"Rob played at my Father In Laws funeral in March this year. Considering the current circumstances surrounding services at Crematoriums he willingly and considerately met all of the Crematoriums current requirements. He piped my Father In Law to the door and played a separate piece when the coffin was taken in and Continued playing outside until the start of the service. As a lone piper he is very smartly turned out very professional and considerate and played both our chosen pieces of music superbly. A fitting farewell tribute for a Scotsman who though quiet and reserved would have been so proud. We would all recommend Rob to anyone 100% You did him proud Rob thank you so very much "

"Duncan played beautifully for two hours during a drinks reception and dinner. His music was varied and enjoyed by all with great feed back coming from our attendees. He was professional, helpful and truly focused on delivering what we needed for the event, certainly someone I would look to work with again."

"I booked the locals for my sister in laws 30th birthday party. Paul was great with communication via email and planning for the event- always prompt in his responses and they delivered exactly what we were hoping for. The songs were brilliant, they created a great atmosphere and we had comments from guests about how good they were and how much they had enjoyed having a live band. Thanks very much guys- would definitely recommend!!"

"Wow! What a great band! I just couldn’t stop moving, it was great. Everyone enjoyed it including my husband. (He was the bar man in the bowler hat!) I would like to extend my own personal thanks as well as a big thank you to everyone for putting on such a great show despite the weather. Here’s every good wish for Jamma de Samba’s continued success – with not too many wet performances! "

"I would highly recommend Meredith for your special event. She is extremely well organised and I had every confidence in her pre-planning. On the day, Meredith arrived in good time to set up her harp, she played a wonderful selection and all the guests considered she made a great contribution to the event. Meredith is a very friendly and engaging person who will make every effort to make your day unique to you."
