"Danny and Catherine played at our wedding a few weeks ago, and I cannot recommend them enough. They play a great range of songs, tailored to your preferences, are great fun, and worked the audience magnificently, getting everyone dancing from the three year-olds to the seventy three year-olds. Before booking, I checked out the clips on you-tube, and compared them with lots of other bands, and no-one else came close. They lived up to, and surpassed, our expectations. Many thanks for a fantastic evening."

"We booked Back to Back to play at our Client Christmas Celebration Awards Dinner and Dance last week and they didn't disappoint. They came on after we'd finished dinner and the awards ceremony and despite a number of guests having to leave as they were driving home, they soon got everyone else up dancing for the rest of the night. They played a real mix of music to suit everone's tastes and ages and no-one wanted them to finish! "

"If you are looking for a band to fill the dance floor, these guys are exactly what you need. I CANNOT recommend them enough. They absolutely made my husbands 50th birthday the most amazing night EVER! Not only are they great musicians but they are so friendly and go way above and beyond anything we expected. Thank you all for making the night so fantastic!!! I will definitely be booking them again. Ian you are an absolute legend from the time of booking until the day of the party nothing was ever too much trouble."

"Radio Dukes played at our wedding on 23rd October helping us out of a huge whole when our chosen band had to pull out due to covid two days before. We did not know what to expect other than the videos online. They were beyond our expectations nothing was too much trouble & the dance floor was packed from start to finish. All the musicians were superb & we have had so many comments from guests of how great the band were. Do not hesitate to book these guys they will not disappoint. Highly recommend! "

"Having been approached by the now famous and very popular Duchy of Cornwall Nursery in Lostwithiel to hold two nights of live Jazz at their award winning Café, where by the way, this was going to be the first such event in its history, Lostwithiel Jazz Café looked around to book exactly the right band for the Saturday night and when we came across Astro Jazz Project we looked no further. They were great with excellent comments and superlatives from an appreciative audience, stamping and hollering after every number. Surely the next stop for Astro Jazz Project from Teignmouth is the club of his name sake in Frith Street, Soho. Both evenings were of such success that Lostwithiel Jazz Café have been invited back to conduct another two nights in mid winter (probably the naff end of January) and we are sure it is mostly due to Astro Jazz Project, thanks chaps and we are working on bringing them back to Lostwithiel in the new year."

"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! ?"

"Just wanted to say a massive thanks to you guys for the music at the party. It was amazing! I had sooo many positve comments about you guys! You sounded awesome. Its always a bit of a worry when you book someone without seeing them but I couldn't be happier. So glad we went for the acoustic set outside as well. I think it made the day."

"OH MY WORD - I’m not sure I can put into words how good this band is. My husband and I have just celebrated our 60th birthdays and my priority was to have a live band to dance to. I hadn’t seen W4s but found them online. Any nerves I had about them disappeared as soon as I heard their sound check - they are phenomenal. I have friends in bands and a professional singer in the family - they were blown away by them. Everyone was on the dance floor including all the men. Do not hesitate to book this band! They are also very lovely people. "
