Booked for Birthday party

Ben and the boys from Run For Cover put on an absolutely fantastic set and really made everyone’s night. Ben is also super responsive and well organised. Couldn’t recommend them more and wouldn’t hesitate to book them again for an event in the future! Thanks again lads!

Booked for Private party

Kommy and Ben gave a great performance. They will really deliver the goods for you, so go ahead and get in touch with them. They were very easy to work with and hit the perfect tone for our intimate family and friends garden birthday party. They set up quickly and were the main surprise part of the party, they had an excellent set list and also welcomed requests.

Booked for Wedding

We were absolutely blown away by Groove Collider. Every guest without exception commented on how fantastic the band were. Excellent playlist, perfect vocals, amazing sound and extremely engaging. They made a perfect atmosphere for the party after our wedding. Extremely easy to deal with and book. Effortless set up, and very good value for money. The band had everyone on the dance floor and were happy to give a few encore numbers at the end because our guests wanted more. Highly recommended for any event where you want to let your hair down and have a great night. Thanks to Mark and the band, we would definitely book again!

Booked for Birthday party

Two Scoops were absolutely brilliant. Well-pitched, responsive to requests, got the mood exactly right and great tunes. So many of my guests have been very complimentary. It really couldn't have gone any better

Booked for Wedding

Jack & Tee played a fantastic set at our wedding reception. Although some COVID restrictions were still in place and dancing restricted they did a great job and created a great atmosphere. Both Jack and Tina’s vocals are amazing, all the guests commented how good they were. Very accommodating and a nice couple to work with. Cannot recommend them highly enough. Thanks for making our evening so special.

Booked for Corporate Function

We were fortunate to book The Groovy Cats for our Summer Corporate Event. From start to finish ultimate professionals and really nice people. The event was a great success to which the great music, sense of humour from the band members all contributed. Would recommend and book again - wait...we have booked again for our Christmas Event - Well done guys - a real pleasure - Chad
