Booked for Wedding

Couldn't of asked for a better experience. The band was amazing and definitely got the dancefloor full. The band are really approachable and accommodating with any requests on the night and were flexible with the sets to work with the flow of the evening. Great quality music, which got our guests wanting more. A special thank you to Ben, who is most genuinely the nicest man, who can also belt out some tunes. Our wedding day was perfect, and Run For Cover definitely contributed to making it that way. We cannot recommend enough. If anyone is wanting top quality music for their event, then get in touch with Ben and the band. We wish you guys all the best, and hope to use you again in the future.

Booked for Private party

We had an all around excellent experience with Jack and Tee! They were incredibly responsive, even planning a zoom meeting with us before the event to discuss songs, setting up, timing, etc. They were reliable, arriving early to set up. Our guests all commented on how much they loved their music. It was upbeat, fun, and included a wide variety of songs that everyone enjoyed. Above all they were super cool and I really enjoyed the experience with them. I would definitely book them again and would recommend them to anyone for their next event.
