Matt really looked after us for our event. The duo were a great fit with some more chilled versions of classics earlier in the night and very much 'upbeat' versions later on that got us up and dancing! Superb musicians with great vocals and a professional service!

We were looking for a live band and PopTop made it easy to find something which was ideal for us. Easy to book and pay a deposit and the balance later. Vicious Kitten played at our 40th wedding anniversary party and were BRILLIANT! The band are just lovely and play everything from ABBA to AC/DC! Really good! Thank you for a wonderful evening. So much better than a run of the mill disco. 😉

40th Birthday Party: I can’t recommend Glo enough! They were just brilliant from start to Finish. Nothing was to much trouble and I had people coming up to me the whole night saying how awesome the band was! Such nice guys and they just rocked the party. Thank you

I would like to say that I was delighted to have Rock Steady at my retirement party. They were a pleasure to deal with, they arrived on time and the music that they played was just what I wanted. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to have a brilliant band...

Absolutely brilliant - great voices and lots of fun. We really enjoyed having the Front Covers entertain us at our birthday/charity party celebration. They are a lovely group, totally professional and well organised. I would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting a group who will guarantee a good night of singing and music - they obviously love what they do! Thanks guys - you were fabulous!

"Having this band for my wedding was the best choice in the world. All my guests had so much fun!!! We were all singing and dancing to the songs :) I would 100% recommed them for any occasion. All my guests were asking for them because they were so good no exaggerations. They got there early and followed the plan we had, etc. Thank you so much for making the wedding of our dreams come true :) xxx Gabriela and James"
