" Our guests and us said it was the best wedding band performance ever. The musicianship was fantastic and the members were accommodating and friendly. They are very reasonably priced and easy to work with. Without reservation we recommend them for any event especially weddings."

"I went to see this band at Doc MacGilligans recently and was enjoying the music until the end of the first set. The band is quite good but the lead singer seems to think that he can impose his will on others. I went to the washroom and discovered, when I returned to my seat at the bar, that he had moved my drink and jacket to another location so his family/friends could be together. Had he simply asked, I would have agreed but to make that unilateral decision really told me something about him and turned me off the band."

"Review ‘Under the covers’ ‘The Crown’ 6/8/22 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! ?"

"LA Mixtrax is THE band to see! Fantastic bunch of highly talented musicians with a large repertoire of songs spanning all the decades! We rocked out and danced the night away from start to finish - only warning is my feet still hurt! Excellent value for money for a four piece band and very quick to respond to messages and queries we had. You won't be disappointed and everyone who came to our party said the band was awesome! If you're looking for a band look no further, the only question you need to ask yourself is: “why aren't I booking LA Mixtrax?!” "

"I hired The Cheers for my wedding and they were absolutely fantastic. Not only were they incredible on the day, with so much energy, exceptional performances, and friendly vibes, but they were so flexible and practical leading up to the wedding. I really appreciated how approachable and communicative Ben, the Band Manager, was and how he made me feel that we could figure out some of the practicalities as the wedding plans chopped and changed. A superb band, well organised, professional and got everyone on the dance floor every minute they performed. I would recommend to everyone and will be using The Cheers again, no doubt."

"We had some lovely lads play at our Rented villa in Rhodes in August and they were amazing! From my first enquiry the band were great at communicating and liaising with us to ensure our evening was perfectly set-up. They are super talented and created a great party which everyone enjoyed and couldn't stop talking about! "

"We booked Time Benders for a surprise performance for my husband's 40th birthday. He is Žana's biggest fan. They were supposed to play her hit song Druga violina, but ended up playing for two hours! We had a blast! Thank you so much for making his day so special ❤️"

"Just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to Goldsworth Gerry! Honestly, you guys made my birthday party extra special! From start to finish it was a pleasure to deal with you. Very reliable, responded to my emails and requests about the songs very quickly and the performance on the day was amazing. Every guest has complimented you and said how much fun they had on the night. Their song list is great, plenty to choose from and will keep your guests on a dance floor for hours! I would highly recommend Goldsworth Gerry for big or small celebrations as they can create a great atmosphere for you and your guests."

"Escuchamos a Cristian y Lorena por primera vez una noche que fuimos a cenar a un restaurante italiano y, como nos llamaron la atención, decidimos contratarlos para el 50 cumpleaños de mi hermana. No pudimos elegir mejor!! Tienen un repertorio muy variado de temas de todas las épocas y estilos, en inglés y en español, e incluso aceptaron sugerencias nuestras. Fueron muy amables y cercanos, muy profesionales. Sin duda recomendables!! "

"Loran was absolutely brilliant. A talented performer with a great voice and an excellent selection of pop and rock classics. He kept the audience entertained all evening and was professional from the moment we booked him. Highly recommended and we look forward to booking him again in the future. ★★★★★"

"What an absolute class act you guys are - I maybe slightly biased as it is 'my era' and I booked you but you were absolutely amazing. I actually got quite emotional stood in the middle singing along! On a booking level you were a pleasure to deal with. All the punters I spoke to loved it and you are more than welcome back in Penistone again.The quality of the performance was second to none and soon had 600 paying customers singing along to Britpop classics and helped us make loads for our local charities.
