"We have worked with Ant many times over the last couple of years and keep getting him back in to play on account of his strong, versatile voice and sound that suits a wide range of styles and settings, from larger crowds to intimate gigs. Ant can be amazingly flexible with the set list and tailors a performance to suit the crowd. All in all, he’s a great guy and really easy to work with. "

"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! ?"

"The Glory were absolutely brilliant…. Everybody commented on how good they were. They controlled the volume brilliantly, allowing people who hadn’t seen each other for many years to talk, whilst others danced. Song selection was fantastic and gave something for everyone, as it was a very wide range of ages. The lads were very polite and courteous, and our family will certainly use them again in the future. Thank you very much” Carole & Martin Lockwood *****"

"Encrypted Love Indra has been performing at Plugged In Switched On for several years now and she is one of the most accomplished and talented musicians I have had the pleasure of working with. She is very professional and organised and always gets to the venue in good time for her performance, sound check or whatever. She has a way of making any song her own and breathing new life into them usually with an Encrypted Love twist in the tail. She has a very natural way with audiences and soon has them eating out of her hand. In short Indra is a professional artist / entertainer of the highest caliber and I do not hesitate to recommend her to any person or organisation that might have need of her services."

"Adar played in my wedding ceremony, and I couldn't ask for a better job. We asked a specific song for our ceremony, 'I wanna be yours' by Arctic Monkeys, and Adar made a special version of it and even produced a stunning backing audio to go with his live performance in our event. It was very special and artistic and we got so many compliments."

"It’s was my sons 30th birthday party and I’m so happy I found U Select. It was so exciting being able to customise everything. All the singers U Select sent where incredible and it make choosing very difficult, but we loved Graham’s style as our son loves rock / indie music. The band were so good and I can’t believe how much of a performer Graham is, so much energy and wow, what a voice! Our son was so happy that the band where able to play all his favourite bands like Arctic Monkeys, The Killers, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Foo Fighters & Paramore. So glad I found U Select! "

"We had a fantastic day and the evening was excellent. Thank you so much for making it all so easy for us, from talking beforehand we knew we were in good hands. Everyone made a point to tell us how brilliant you were, the songs you played appealed to all and got everyone up dancing. You know yourselves that we didn’t want you to finish!! We couldn’t recommend you highly enough: totally professional, laid back and with a heap of talent. Thank you for making our night truly memorable! (10 / 10)"
