Review Centre: Bands & Ensembles

"We would just like to express how impressed we were with They Got The Party. They were absolutely brilliant and the dance floor wasn't empty at any point during the night. Their playlist was exactly what we were hoping For and it meant that the music catered for all generations. Many of our guests commented on how good the band was. It was a bonus that they sang our first dance and we were very grateful for that. We will always keep the band in mind for future events and recommend to others. Keep up the good work. "

You and the girls all looked gorgeous as well, so thanks for making such an effort and adding a real touch of class to my wedding. April Lloyd - Bride - Grand Hotel, Brighton - 18/8/12"

"Despite a few issues, out of our control per say, the Bilberries were amazing artists. Have already got them booked back in for a few more events. Easy to book with and easy to communicate throughout. Song choices were awesome and our guests and team enjoyed listening to them"

"We just wanted to extend our thanks for your wonderful musical contribution to our wedding. So many people said how much they had enjoyed your music and what a fabulous voice you have. It was a big decision when there is so much out there to choose from but we don't think we could have made a better decision in booking you."

"What a band! Thank you so much Karen and team for your professionalism and superb performance. We loved dancing to your great range of material with slick song transitions and epic belters - Proud Mary was just too good! So glad we opted for the full 8-piece lineup, having that extra touch of brass made it for us. Hope we can party with you again soon!"

"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! ?"

"We had this duo perform at our office party. They played everyone's favorite songs and made each song there own. They were very flexible, and quiet setting up. We will definitely be hiring them for next year's Christmas party!"

"Just wanted to thank you once again for a superb ceilidh at Charlotte's wedding reception on New Year's Eve. Everyone enjoyed it immensely, and I lost count of the number of guests who commented how brilliant you were.WeI couldn't have been more impressed with the band, and how much you contributed to making it a truly memorable evening. We will take great delight in recommending you to family and friends for future events. "

"Craxton Strings were a fabulous addition to our wedding day. We booked the quartet only 10 days before our wedding and despite this the process was very easy. The group has a fabulous musical repertoire, all of which can be listened to online, and allows you to fully customise your music selection, a process we greatly enjoyed. On the day the group were very flexible, due to the weather they had to play inside and over the noise of 200 guests, not an easy task, however they remained professional throughout and received a great number of compliments from our guests. We would not hesitate to book them again. "

"We booked Andrew for our wedding after deciding that we wanted keyboard piano in the background. From start to finish Andrew was great and discussed with us the different options for the day, it couldn’t have been easier! The wedding itself was perfect the songs we picked sounded amazing in the venue. The guests commented on how lovely the sound was in the background during the ceremony and meal. If you are looking for talent and attention to detail then Andrew is the musician for you. Thanks again."

"The Shooglers were real stars at our wedding in Lochgoilhead in October. They performed a perfect mix of ceilidh and rock covers, sometimes in the same dance! It really had everyone up on the dance floor for most of the evening. Afterwards, everyone wanted to know where we'd got them from including the venue coordinator who sees bands every week. Most of all, they have a great sense of humour - they realise it's all about everyone having a great time. Thanks again guys, you were awesome. "
