"The Long Players were worth every penny. Their communication prior to the wedding was excellent and they responded immediately to any queries or requests we had. They were flexible, professional and reliable throughout. On the day they proved to be an excellent band, and the guests had a great time dancing to them, including a spontaneous conga to Satisfaction! We would certainly recommend them. Thank you Lee and the rest of the band"

"I have had the pleasure of enjoying Girl Fridays music on a number of occasions. Great band and Michelle is a great vocalist, They have a great repertoire of music and certainly know how to entertain a large or small audience. I would highly recommend them if you are looking for some live music for your next event"

"These guys played at my wedding earlier this year and they were insane! Never had so much fun, karaoke with a big band is an ingenious idea... If anyone else I know is getting married please book them so I can see them again! "

"There’s more to Johnny Ticktin than meets the eye. Well-versed in the blues, having once served as lead guitar player for the legendary Louisiana Red, the open-minded Ticktin is a sponge, soaking up the subtle six-string nuances and intricacies of a multitude of genres—from surf to classic R&B, swing and even Mambo—on his eighth album with The Headhunters, That’s All I Need. It would feel right at home in any rough-and-tumble roadhouse. The title is borrowed from a song, covered here in all its dark, swampy glory, off Magic Sam’s 1967 iconic electric blues marvel West Side Soul. Watery, backwoods ripples of Sam’s tremolo guitar style and seductive rhythms meander through Creedence Clearwater Revival’s mysterious kudzu on Johnny & The Headhunters’ version, as Ticktin and company paddle up a lazy river of Bayou groove. Just as fluent in nasty rockabilly, they thrive in the sweltering heat of the 1957 obscurity “Chicken House,” giving it a warm buzz and making it rumble and swagger, while the lascivious, infectious funk of “Body and Fender” – a Doc Pomus/Duke Robillard joint originally built for soul crooner Johnny Adams – shakes all over and ogles the female form. A rousing, boogie-woogie version of Lowell Fulsom’s Chess Records’ hit “Rock ‘Em Dead” is wonderfully shambolic, and Ticktin rides the lightning of the Link Wray instrumental “Ace of Spaces” like a champ, gleefully wheeling through edgy garage-rock riffs with appropriate vim and vigor. What feel he and his band have for this material. There is not the slightest bit of indifference to it anywhere on this record. Not that they need it, but help arrives in the form of keyboardist Tam Sullivan, who wraps smoky, sensual organ and wraiths of piano around a soulful remake of Bobby “Blue” Bland’s “Lead Me On,” and singer Liz Springer, who joins her brazen vocals to Ticktin’s in the cheeky, but charming, duet “Watch and Chain.” And, with the solid machinery of a good backing band at work behind him, Ticktin can just let loose – witness the slide-guitar fury of their cover of Elmore James’ “Shake Your Money Maker.” For aficionados of tasteful guitar work and music that time shouldn’t have forgotten, this is what you need. —Peter Lindblad SPREAD THE NEWS!

"We go to the Horn most Fridays and flick between the live music and pool but couldn't leave the music hall this week because the band was so good! Every single song was a great pick and they played amazingly - I can't wait to see them back here again soon!"

"I booked Morning glory as our Main Event act in our most recent event on the 22nd of June for a Cabaret Show for the Stoneybatter Festival, the band were a pleasure to work with and were very professional from meeting them. A great bunch of lads and were the best Oasis Tribute band I have personally witness, I would book Morning Glory again in a flash and would highly recommend these guys for any occasion."

"4 part harmonies? Really? In a local classic rock cover band?? Technically about as clean a sound as I've heard. They're pretty particular! "
