"Heard 'The Shooglers' play at a fantastic wedding I was photographing, well I was so desperate to join in the dancing - truly fantastic music ;-) I love the one you did with the mix of Pink Floyd - Another Brick in the Wall - was amazing! Tapping my foot and itching to dance - best music at a wedding I’ve ever heard!"

"Vinyl Revival were absolutely the perfect soundtrack to our wedding reception drinks, in fact one of our highlights of the day is when having our formal photos with both our families we all burst into song and sang along to Clare & Ollie covering Fleetwood Mac! So many of our (quite musical) guests commented on what incredible musicians they are. I’ve recommended Vinyl Revival to so many people, and honestly can’t rate and thank them highly enough!"

"Hi Anne, Thank you so much for your email. The string quartect was lovely! I wish the day could have slowed down, so I could have appreciated the music a lot more, but I'm sure the guests enjoyed it too! Thank you for much for organising this for us and I hope the team enjoyed themselves too. Thank you Ka-yan"

"We just wanted to say a big thank you to you, your arranger and your performers for making our special day truly memorable. The trio played beautifully and everyone we spoke to commented on how perfect they made the ceremony. :-D Especially thanks for taking the time to plan out my custom tracks, I was nearly tearing up when vicki came down the aisle to the music we chose. ;-) "

"“We just wanted to drop you an email to say a massive thank you for giving us all an awesome night at our wedding on Friday 24 July in Twickenham. You were absolutely fantastic and really made the night. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you or have you again at another function – the music was great, everyone was dancing all night and you were really understanding when we were running late after a delay earlier in the day. Thanks so much for making our wedding really fun and memorable, everyone commented to us how much they enjoyed us having live music from you. We are still buzzing from it!” Best wishes Danny and Aimee Langley – Wedding – The Turks Head – Twickenham"

"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 such a brilliant night, Louise and the whole band were absolutely fantastic. From start to finish they were professional, friendly, and so easy to work with. Communication was spot on in the lead-up, and they even came to meet us at the venue beforehand which made everything run so smoothly. The performance itself was incredible, great energy, amazing vocals, and they had everyone up and dancing. Some people hearing the performance live from outside couldn't believe it wasn't a recording! We've had so many compliments from guests since. Would highly recommend and hope to catch them live again soon!"
