Review Centre: Pop Bands

"Straight Up not only had the dance floor packed all night, but the whole area around the dance floor too! Jeremy has an unbelievable voice and performance style - it feels wrong to describe them as a wedding band because they are just an incredibly talented group of musicians who happen to be able to sing brilliant covers with their own stamp. They were also an absolute delight to deal with throughout and took the 1.5 hour delay in starting as a result of dinner overrunning in their stride. Thank you for making our wedding day so special, and for giving us so many wonderful memories. "

"Just to say that everyone I spoke to thought the set you guys played at The Railway was amazing. One of the real highlights of the day - I'll look to catch you soon again."

"We’ve had a good few bands at Bearwood Lakes events over the years, and when it came to my Captain’s Day it was my turn to make the booking! I picked Hopwood 5 and have to say they absolutely smashed it, comfortably the best band we’ve had there!! Great musicians, an up-beat playlist, and a fantastic way to round off a memorable day for me! I have no doubt they’ll be back at some point! Book them, you won’t regret it!"

"The band were fantastic! Really professional and the quality was amazing. We had loads of great feedback from the guests too, in fact one of them is interested in booking them for an event this summer! They performed a great version of our first dance song (Everywhere, Fleetwood Mac) - it was very special. Thanks again to you and the band! "

"Dear Smooth Criminals! Thank you so much for you performance at our wedding. You were absolutely superb and so much fun. My sister also really enjoyed her song with you! The first dance song, Wings, was absolutely incredible! Regards Mr & Mrs Seager "

"A fantastic performance from a group of really talented musicians, producing a medley of pop, soul and uplifting tunes. They had the whole party singing, dancing and wanting more! Great people as well, we couldn't recommend them highly enough."

"Wow! What can I say?! You guys were absolutely incredible! You made the vision come to life and so much more. Your voices, your level of performance and the way you interacted with our guests was just absolutely fantastic. I keep reliving the way you sang and all the songs in my head, you really did make our wedding. All of your voices are simply stunning and I’d thoroughly recommend you to anybody for their wedding. Your singing was one of our favourite parts of the whole day for sure. Thank you for everything! "

"We hired Kirsty for a Nineties party at the Defence Academy. A consultation was conducted ahead of the event to confirm access, power, location etc, ensuring that everything was set up in time, in the right location, without having to bother the organisers on the night. The set list was excellent and had been put together following the consultation. Kirsty managed the energy of the room perfectly and the set-up was highly professional. Would definitely hire again."

"These guys were incredible. We booked them to lead us and our guests on a 10 min walk from our wedding ceremony to reception venue. It was by far one of the best moments of the day and a memory my husband and I will treasure always. Our guests were blown away too. Thanks guys!"

"I hired Nick through last minute musicians as a Duo and they were great! Nic was able to play lots that got everyone dancing and joining in, he took requests and even did an impromptu duet with myself after a request from another guest. They played songs I had requested before the party brilliantly and gave the perfect country western vibe to our hoe down. He was so polite and respectful all evening and a genuinely lovely person. Last minute musicians were great with finding him as I was very particular about what I wanted for the party, they sent lots of options and searched high and low till I was happy with my choice to go with Nick. Thank you all"

"The Covered played at our wedding in London recently and from the first minute after we booked to their last song at the wedding they were thoroughly professional, personable, and great fun. They played a two-hour-plus set that got everyone up dancing like lunatics. What more could you ask for!? Their song list spans from the 60s through to the now and the band read the crowd to make sure the next song played is going to keep everyone up and dancing. We booked them knowing very little about them, but we're so glad we did. John was extremely helpful throughout the process and goes the extra yard to make his clients happy."
