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 booked Run for Cover for our wedding on 24/06/23 and they were absolutlety ace! From day one of the booking right through to celebrating our special day, they were so accomodating and flexible which helped takes so much of the stress away from organising things. They helped rock the dance floor on the night and everyone had a blast. Would highly reccomend and wish them all the best. Thanks again Ben for all your help!

Booked for Wedding

Brilliant, can’t recommend these guys enough! The evenings entertainment was flawless, I’ve been to many wedding with more expensive bands who aren’t a patch on these lads!! Unbelievable value for money.
