"I first saw Goldsworth Gerry in a local hostelry and to be honest I wasn't expecting a duo to be so good. I immediately booked them for a birthday celebration way in advance. That celebration was last week and they were brilliant. Rave reviews from all my guests on the music, including "if you closed your eyes it could have been the original band". Shame my dancing wasn't quite as good @ o)) Look no further if you want to go and see or book an amazing covers band. Thank you Martin and Stuart."

"H&S stepping in at the eleventh hour for our Wedding, after our musician cancelled. They were extremely professional, polite and flexible and were amazing, with very little guidance from myself and made the evening. Throughout the evening, I received positive feedback and praise about the duet and I am sure some of my friends will be contacting them in the future. I would most definitely highly recommend H&S, whom I cannot thank enough for helping to make my wedding special. I will definitely book them again. "

"We engaged Tom to provide entertainment for a social evening for about 60 people. There was a wide range of ages although the older generation predominated. He beautifully performed songs of a variety of styles. Within a few minutes of starting, people were up dancing without requiring any encouragement. So, thanks Tom for a wonderful evening."

"Truly the BEST band ever and the most AMAZING people, If you are reading these reviews wondering if The Players are the band for you then let me reassure you that they are...... As a Wedding Photographer I have seen my fair share of bands but The Players were an easy pick for us, they really do know how to liven up the dance floor. We let them have free reign over what music to play and they picked some corkers. All our guests were raving over them and still are 2months later..in fact our friends loved them so much they are also booking them for their wedding :) They made our first dance so special and absolutely nailed the song, so much so we liked there version more than the original, I got in touch with Paddy from The Players and asked if it was possible for them to record there version of the song so I could give it to my wife for her Birthday - a few weeks later and I have the recording - Sara is going to LOVE it!!! If you are looking for a band then I honestly can't recommend them enough, They were easy to book, answered our questions promptly, came to the venue and set up with no issues, played great music all night and got our guests on the dance floor...they smashed it. Thank you all so much and we can't wait to be dancing away to your music at our friends wedding Lots of love Kieran + Sara "

"Thank you so much for coming across to Ludlow to play in our Handel in Italy concert. What a lot of notes (especially for Rachael and Sam!) - I'm hugely grateful. You played fantastically and the energy of your sound made it a truly thrilling concert for the choir. I loved it all! Thanks again for your flexibility with the shortened morning rehearsal, and for your great team work and intelligent musicianship which enabled us to do the very best we could in the time available. Very best wishes, The director"

"It was a pleasure having you with us. We’d absolutely love to keep in touch for future events, both for stripped-back performances and for opportunities where a bigger, higher-energy production could work well too. Thanks again for being part of the weekend and helping create such a brilliant atmosphere."

"We had the pleasure of having the Petford Duo perform at our company's international event last month. They played with great passion and energy and contributed to the successful we had at the Oxo Tower. Will book again!"

"Well what can we say, they have kept our dancefloor full for the past 6 years at our xmas party (if not longer!), they even changed event location with us! Every year the set gets better and better, hence why we haven’t changed the band…. and they are excellent value for money! James and team always ensure that everyone is having a great time and often keep the sets running for longer as there is so much dancing going on. The band are accommodating for the songs that we want playing and ensure there is a good mixture for all attending the evening. They are ever so flexible with the range of DJs we have worked with. They are punctual for set up and sound testing to make sure the night runs smoothly. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for any occasion where you want to have a full dance floor. Super!! 10/10!!!"
