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

Amazing! Everyone at our wedding commented on how good the music was, and the acoustic guitar in the day really set off the day. Really easy to deal with, and always kept me up to date. Thanks for making our day better!

Booked for Anniversary

Ed and Oliviyia were just fabulous. We enjoyed every song and actually wished we'd booked them for the whole evening. So many of our guests said how much they enjoyed their sets. Can thoroughly recommend them. Don't hesitate, book them and you definitely won't be disappointed.

Booked for Wedding

We booked run for cover for our wedding back in 2019 and due to covid we finally had our big day in June 2022. They stuck by us for all that time and we're very accommodating and professional and kept in touch throughout. We opted for the band with their DJ service in between. The Song choices were discussed with us in advance, and the band even played our first dance Live, and provided the audio to us for the videographer to get better sound quality. The guys were so friendly and down to earth and sounded amazing on the night. They really made the night stand out and we had loads of comments saying how good they were. We are very glad we decided to opt for this band instead of just a DJ as the atmosphere was fantastic. Couldn't recommend these guys highly enough. Thanks run for cover.

Booked for Birthday party

Outstanding performance by Josie. Considering the present circumstances we are now all enduring, she made such a tremendous effort to ensure everything was as it should be. Her range of music is incredible and it suited the whole ambience for the evening. I cannot thank Josie enough for the extreme lengths that she went to for our enjoyment.

Booked for Birthday party

"Brilliant band. Accommodated everything we asked for. Will book again and have already recommended Out on Bail to others. Thank you for a memorable night."

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
