"We opted for the 6 piece band adding in the sax player and how right we were with that choice. So good from start to finish. They learnt some songs I asked for too and the singing and energy had everyone dancing from start to finish of the evening. Book with confidence. They will make your event!"

"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! ?"

"We got married in Artimino in the Tuscan hills, we are from Ireland and came across Guty & Simone online. From the very first enquiry email right through to our wedding day they were exceptional to deal with. They sent us their repertoire of music, we selected the songs we wanted played, we created a DJ setlist too where they connected to our spotify to make sure they played the songs we wanted. Guty and Simone supplied the mics for the wedding speeches as well. I honestly cannot compliment these 2 guys any more for everything they did, true professionals, our guests are still talking about them and they really and truly made our day that much better. If we we're to get married again, we would be asking for Guty & Simone all the time!!! If you're getting married, get in touch with these to greats!!! Thank you both so much, Cora & John, Dublin"

"We booked StraightFire for our work Christmas party. I had seen the smaller line-up of the band but booked the full 8-piece with the brass section and they blew us away. Incredible - recommended without reservation."

"What a band! Music&Soul kept the party going all night long. Every song choice was perfect, and their energy was contagious. Mirko’s piano skills, Andrea’s percussion, and Mauro’s sax created the best musical experience we could have asked for. Highly recommended!"

"Absolutely fantastic band doing a really wide range of covers. The guys themselves were really helpful and friendly and adapted to suit our venue. We hired them for a work Christmas party and they had no problem getting everyone up and dancing from the first song. Would definitely recommend them for any event!"

"These guys are absolute superstars and a must have to get any party started! From the initial enquiry to our wedding day, the band were absolutely flawless and a delight to work with. They have mastered the art of weddings and the science of getting people on the dancefloor. Our guests also loved these pocket rocking legends! - Im sure we'll see you guys again at some of our friends weddings!"

"The Jersey Surecats drove about 70 miles in a snow storm for my daughter's wedding. They provided light cocktail music. Then played a wide variety of toe tapping dance cover songs. They were the life of the party. In fact, several guests inquired about them so that they can hire them. They even learned several songs for the wedding. They were cooperative and went the extra mile for us."

"Spectacular and emotive performance, we had goosebumps. They were a pleasure to have, we were delighted to have chosen Karla Ruiz for our wedding. Their music was the most talked about amongst our wedding guests who marvelled at their performance. A 10/10!"

"We were lucky enough to hire the Party Band with Singer to perform at our wedding, and they were brilliant. From the initial enquiry, to the booking, to the actual day, it was all easy and stress free. All our guests were so complimentary and thoroughly enjoyed the performance, and the band fully vindicated our decision to not have a DJ. Gabriel was very considerate to ask if there were any songs from the set list we definitely wanted to be played, or avoided, and also kind enough to play our own playlist through their speakers between sets. I wouldn't hesitate to hire the band in the future for any other special occasion/event, and would recommend them to everyone"

The singers are fantastic and the band is very nice. We recommand them without any doubt. Thank you again to them. "
