"Black Velvet Band Irish Trio came to play at our relaxed outdoor pre-wedding get together of about 40 people. The three who made up the band were great – very talented musicians – they played all our favourites as well as some wider material. They were very keen to fit in with what we wanted to hear and gauged the mood as to whether to sing ballads or play jigs (after a few drinks people were up for having a bit of a dance). It was such a joy to hear live music again after all these months of covid restrictions. The Band really made the evening and they were really lovely people."

"Recently had It Takes 2 for my wife's 40th birthday party. They were amazing, guitar and singing first class. Lots of people dancing, and everyone commented on how good they were. Would definitely recommend and would love to see them again. Thanks both."

"The Covered were stunning and without a doubt made our charity ball an amazing success! The songs they chose could not have been better and everyone was on the dance floor not wanting it to end! John, Sara and the team were so friendly, and professional throughout and booking through Encore made it so easy. Definitely recommend!!"

"Fantastic evening for my Dad’s 80th Birthday. The songs Darling Starling played seemed like a personal playlist, every song was really enjoyed by family and friends most of which, have asked where we found you. Truth was at somebody else's party. How lucky we were to find the perfect duo for this event. A massive thank you from everyone that came to Ray's 80th Party. Tim and Nat you made the evening a perfect success. Also a big thank you from my 12 year old Neice who you allowed to use your system to sing a song to her Grandad. Cheers Dave and Nick."

"We booked R45 on more than one occasion to perform for a private function for Bakkavour Party in the Park, they were amazing and had the crowds dancing from the start. They are a professional and talented band and they didn’t fail to entertain! They played a variety of tracks that appealed to everyone! On both occasions that they attended the event R45 were great, a band that everyone loves as they play all genres and think about the audience. I would highly recommend R45 to anyone looking to book a band . You won’t be disappointed - These guys are awesome, you won't regret it, they really are an amazing young group of lads."

"These guys really did a fab job of getting the party going during our brewery’s birthday bash. We had so many great comments about them and their fab voices and musicality. They were great for setting the party off with something a little bit different and got people dancing! Thanks so much guys! :)"

"I've wanted to try live music in our little Country pub for the longest time and Lucy and Jack were so great I'll definitely be having them back again and again. Engaging, entertaining, and had people up dancing all night. Can't recommend enough!"

"You guys were incredible! Thank you so much for playing at our wedding! The variation in songs you played gave everyone something to dance too. And I don't think the dance floor was empty at anyone point. Totally made it for us. I'd get married all over again just to have you play it!"

"They were absolutely brilliant. They really got everyone up on the dance floor and led the sets so that all the guests could really enjoy the dancing. We had a lot over from Canada and they still haven’t stopped telling us how much they enjoyed it. The Scots amongst us also appreciated how good they were and how hard they worked to ensure it was great fun. They helped make the wedding a very special and unforgettable day for Joseph and Amanda.
