"Everything about Outside In was brilliant – right from the moment I booked them. Very easy to communicate with and excellent response time. The band were amazing on the night and everyone loved them. I would highly recommend Outside In to anyone. Thanks again for a brilliant night!"

"We booked the DoubleShots for our black tie event and they were brilliant. They have a great mix of songs with fantastic audience interaction as well. We had the best night and by the end we were all singing along at the top of our voices! This is a great band and if you book them, you will not be disappointed!"

"It’s March and still raining. I’ve trawled through some serious procrastination to decide where I’m going tonight; at least three decent live music offerings in Chester that I know of. And I’m sure the others were brilliant. Marblehead Johnson are, in their own words, a “tribute to the British Britpop music scene” and a “powerful combination of passion and quality.” A tribute band, to me, equals lunatic professionalism. To tribute a whole scene is a big ask. Good covers bands are rare enough, taking that enormous and unlikely step beyond random amateur recreation. But these guys really do tick the box of perfectionist, professional curators though. Friday night was time travel night with a set list that captured the point where British alt-rock got (largely) happy and popular (in a good way). A guitar dominated, looping and lurching opener with Ocean Colour Scene and The Riverboat Song; polished and convincing. Second song in and I’m braving the dance floor with the pointy shoed brigade. A few songs further and they offer me proof of their professionalism. A very-very-very long time ago I was lucky enough to make it into Brixton Academy and unfortunate enough to catch James on a sincerely off night. And I’ve heard James and Sit Down many times since: at home, on the radio, in DJ sets and covered-more-than-it-should-be. One of those beautiful songs that gets tired through over use. And on this particular Friday night I heard it come alive; all vitality restored. There were the things I expected; a good dose of Blur and Oasis both, Stereophonics, Bluetones and more, then some referencing back to foundation stones with The Who and The Jam. Marblehead Johnson switched between styles and musical voices with conviction; into acoustic things and seamlessly back out again. The magic of seeing grown men dance without a pint in hand happened repeatedly through the two sets. On any given set you pray for that one song you don’t see coming; the track you might flick through on the album that becomes something else entirely live. So it was with Blur’s Charmless Man. That perfect Blur poetry, simple, direct and delivered with energy. Marblehead Johnson are a good distance from being charmless. They are careful collectors and curators of songs; fine musicians and performers.!"

"“I just wanted to put a shout out to Supercharger Band. If anyone is organising a wedding, charity ball or other event and need a live covers band, these guys are absolutely fabulous. I organised a Black & White charity ball at St Michaels Manor hotel on Saturday night and they were brilliant!"

"The grooviest part of Saturday night was the early evening slot from this tight little funky punky power trio.. From New Normal disco with deeply sardonic word play, to the rocktastic vastness of Psychopox. The John Preston Tribute Band blow holes in official and official alternative narratives whilst their grooves and riffs induce altered states to facilitate their propaganda deconstructions.. A must for weddings, corporate do's and dusty festivals..."

"Arizona Apr 21 2024 5:18 PM The person who shared the gospel with me, (after 6 years when I finally got saved in 1988) gave me one of your albums to help me walk my walk through music. I’ve been a fan ever since. Raised my kids on your gospel centered groove, and you’ve always been high on my playlist. My son, who is now a youth pastor was playing your Love Education album this morning and our whole family played it in our individual trips to church today. My kids know all the words because it was always a road trip album. So blessed by you and your ministry of music. Here to support your renewed efforts for the next generation! Playing your music now for our grandkids at our backyard bbq on the Sabbath. Your legacy lives on and Gods reward is coming soon for turning so many heats to HIM through your music. God bless your new efforts and ministry."

"Thank you for helping to create the perfect romantic and chilled atmosphere to our riverside view wedding ceremony and drinks reception at The Masterbuilder’s at Bucklers Hard. Entrance song ‘At Last’ and exit song ‘All of me’ sung beautifully and the perfect choice for the perfect location. A wonderful duo who contributed to such a beautiful day. Lucy’s vocals were out of this world, with many guests commenting on what an amazing duo they were. Not only were they great artists, they were lovely people, which made it even more special."
