"Velvet Crush played for our corporate event of almost 300 people. They kept the audience engaged and everyone had a great time! Song selections were appropriate and they sounded amazing. They even had a surprise vocalist for us! In short, the band "crushed it" and we look forward to having them back next year!"

"Velvet Crush was hired for a week long corporate event for the Sheetz Gas Company at Seven Springs Resort. They were professional every step of the way. They brought the energy and talent we needed to provide the entertainment for the week. The management employees from Sheetz loved them. They brought top notch sound system; sound engineer; full lighting show; and they were simply top notch entertainment. You're getting the complete full package with Velvet Crush."

"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! ?"

"TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN This is to certify that Smile Duo has been employed by the Royal Orchid Sheraton Hotel & Towers, Bangkok, Thailand, as resident band at Lobby Lounge from 1st April 2008 until 24th April trill February 2009. During that period, they fulfilled their duty to our entire satisfaction, always showing interest in the success of our operation. Furthermore, they have also shown great enthusiasm and a positive attitude towards the hotel. They were always very cooperative and supportive of all events that we organized and participated in, making those events successful. They were very flexible in the times of performances and fitted in with our business levels during the good and bad times of the political unrest during the closure of the airports that affected a downturn in business. I will honestly recommend them to any hotel and definitely wish them well and every success in their future endeavours. They were definitely a pleasure to work with. Yours sincerely, ROYAL ORCHID SHERATON HOTEL & TOWERS"

" We hired Ostrich Hat to play at our wedding and they were incredible. They learned to play our first dance and the mother/son dance (which were pretty obscure tunes). They were professional and a pleasure to deal with every step of the way. They were also one of the most reasonably priced bands out there. I would absolutely hire them again and couldn't recommend them highly enough. ​"

"A 40. szülinapi bulinkon zenélt a zenekar. Elég magas elvárásokat támasztottunk feléjük mivel sok jó hallottunk róluk. A bulin ezeket az elvárásokat messze túlszárnyalták. Olyan hangulatot tudtak varázsolni, hogy az elképesztő. A zene színvonala kimagasló volt, viszont legnagyobb varázserejük abban rejlik, hogy mindig tudják melyik zeneszám után mi lenne még ütősebb. Sokszor az az érzésem volt, hogy nincs tovább, ezt nem lehet fokozni. Viszont ők tudták… 😊 Mindenkinek ajánlom a Betty Boom zenekart, akik felejthetetlenné szeretnék tenni a rendezvényüket. 😊"
