"wedding at Areias Do Seixo Hotel, A Dos Cunhados E Maceira, Portugal “WOW, what a band! We were really looking for a group to bring the party to our wedding dance floor and they did just that. They played a party/funk 2 hour set that had our dance floor full from the first to the last song. We loved how they would dance and sing through the crowd. If anyone else is looking for a party kickstarting band, we would put these guys at the very top of our list! 10/10 well worth every penny."

"Review ‘Under the covers’ ‘The Crown’ 6/8/22 Saturday night saw the highly anticipated and another eagerly awaited return to ‘The Crown’ Family Pub and Live Music Venue, 749 Lincoln Road, Peterborough, PE1 3HD, of Top Cambridge Party Band ‘Under The Covers!’ They are ‘Simply The Best’ 3 Piece band that sound like a 4 piece we have had playing from outside of Peterborough! ?? Fronted by the charismatic Lead Singer and Bass player ‘Thomas Pollyn’ ??who literally fanned the audience from start to finish with his legendary ‘Long Necked Bass!’ making no need for our air conditioning!, the band started the 1st set the way they meant to go on with with ‘Summer of 69’ featuring brilliant Lead and backing vocal harmonies from ‘Thom’ and Lead guitarist’ ‘Christian Jones’ ??and it was ‘Party Time’ once again as we were quickly taken back through the decades!??? We then got 3 absolute classics in a row, ‘ Shake rattle and roll’ by Bill Haley and His Comets ? ☄️ from 1955 and ‘Build me up buttercup’ by The Foundations ‘Twist and shout’ by The Beatles, which featured great drumming by ‘Lewis Dunmore’ ? There was some really ‘refreshing’ song choices again from this band! In particular ‘Escape’ (The Pina Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes from 1979!? Great humour in the band! Thom: “This is about a man called Johnny!” Christian: “Where does he go?” Thom: “He just goes!” Lol ?? A great version of ‘Johnny B Goode’ followed with excellent Lead Guitar from ‘Christian! ? ‘Play That Funky Music’ with ‘Thom’s’ bass playing giving ‘Mark King from ‘Funk Band’ Level 42 a run for his money!, ‘I want to break Free’ and ‘The Best’ by Tina Turner took us to one of the definite highlights of the 1st Set! ‘A Message to you Rudy’ by The Specials which was worth the ‘Free Admission Price ‘Alone! ????? ‘Sweet Home Alabama’?? and then ‘500 Miles’ by The Proclaimers closed the 1st set in style and demonstrated again the great diversity in this great band! Set 2 started strongly with ‘Let Me Entertain You’ and ‘Chelsea Dagger’ It was then ABBA time with ‘Does your mother know’ and ‘Mama Mia’????♀️??? Next up was the highly anticipated and eagerly awaited Ska 2-Tone section of: ‘Lip up Fatty’ ? by Bad Manners ‘Monkey man’? by The Specials and ‘Baggy Trousers’? by Madness which was awesome! ??? ‘I bet you look good on the Dancefloor’, ‘Sex on Fire’? ‘Teenage Dirtbag’, Mr Brightside’ and ‘Sweet Caroline’ took us to set closer ‘Don’t Look Back in Anger’ by Oasis. A well deserved Encore saw the band play the anthemic ‘Living On A Prayer’ by ‘Bon Jovi’ with again incredible Lead and backing vocals from the band! ???? BIG Thank you to ‘Under The Covers’ who we look forward to bringing back next year! ?"

"Lovely performance at my wedding. Very professional and everyone loved the music. Having the harp at the wedding had been the best decision I could make. Thanks"

"I always said that I would give my left hand if I´d have the voice of John Fogerty. Good Golly, we already have the voice of Fogerty right here in Helsinki! It belongs to Marc Aulén, the vocalist of a good ol´rock band by the name of Seven Mugs. And yes the way he sways and moves his arms would make Joe Cocker happy in his heavenly choir."

"Oh my goodness if I could give The Cheers 1000/10 I so would! We hired them to play an acoustic set during our welcome drinks at our wedding and the live party sets for the evening bash and they were absolutely fabulous. We were literally blown away and they were everything we hoped for and exceeded our expectations. The acoustic set was perfect jazzy modern soulful and really a wonderful backdrop to canapés and fizz. Everyone loved it and I would really recommend opting for this. It sets the day off to such a lovely start. I liased with Ben before hand and he also put together a wonderful dinner playlist. And then the party really started! The bands vocals are amazing and they really get the crowd going! So much so we actually BROKE the dance floor at the venue! Song after song after song was a belter. They were just amazing! They also managed the play list of music between sets and it was perfect. Everyone young and old was up on the dance floor. We have had so many comments about how fantastic the band were. Also I found Ben and the band so professional personable and delightful to have around on the day. Really genuine passionate people. I want to do it all again! Booking The Cheers was one of the best decisions we made and they absolutely nailed the music! Thanks so much guys! (10 / 10)"

"An unbelievable night of spectacular live music in benefit of Montage Support Services was presented to all in attendance on this brisk fall night at the Vaughan City Playhouse Theatre courtesy of multi-talented Instrumentalist Dom Mar KZ, who was backed up by the mind-blowing Shining Star Band. Having been a fan of Dom’s work for the past 32 years, saying that I was looking forward to seeing this show was an understatement. I certainly wasn’t disappointed. Having seen Dom evolve from being the hard rocking Bassist of Graffiti Knox who made his professional debut in 1991 at Toronto’s legendary (yet sadly defunct) Rock ‘N’ Roll Heaven (along with his now Brother-In-Law and one of the Shining Star Band’s Guitarists - Lu Cachie) to becoming one of the most extraordinary and respected Musicians in Canada today was guided by a pre-determined fate. And his fan base across the Globe continues to increase via exposure through International Radio and Online Publications. Besides his Brother-In-Law, Dom was also joined on stage by his son Joe Marchese (Keyboards), Nephews (who also happen to be Lu’s Sons!) Andrew DeVita (Drums) / Carmen Cachie (Guitar), Eugene V (Bass), Daniel Monte (Violin), Piero Nunziata (Guitar), and Enrico Galante (Saxophone). This assembly of exquisite talent was enhanced even further with the Meta Centre Performers, followed by Prado and Juno Award Winner Liberty Silver, who mesmerized the audience and shook this Writer to his core with their stunning presence and vocal prowess. Some of the many stellar (pun intended) tracks churned out included “Destiny” , “In Through The Fire” , “Need A Favour” , “My Lady”, and “War” . Combined with a mesmerizing visual background comprised of photographs and memories from significant periods in Dom’s life, the mentioned songs combined with others included in the Shining Star Band’s set were taken to a deeper level as the Audience came to know and forge an even stronger bond with the Artist via the undeniable magic of music. I genuinely hope that this will be the first of many more performances to come from Dom Mar KZ and The Shining Star Band as their chemistry and passion tore the Vaughan City Playhouse Theatre’s roof off. Mega thanks to Laura Tonelli of Let Signature Events for her hospitality and months of hard work in making this successful concert in aid of an excellent charitable cause a reality! "

"David and the band are so awesome! They were our wedding band and did a spectacular job! From the beginning David was so easy to communicate with and made it completely stress free. He listened to our requests and was beyond professional. Their range is beyond and had something every guest could enjoy. The band was our favorite part of the wedding and our friends and family were so impressed!"

"I highly recommend choosing The Knots to play for any of your upcoming events. We had Jessie and Tim as an acoustic duo play at our wedding and they were absolutely incredible! Jessie has a stunning voice and they chose the perfect songs to play at all times all night to make sure the guests had a great time. They really were the icing on the top of an already amazing day and we couldn’t have been happier for choosing them. Thank you so much Jessie and Tim, you guys are legends!"

"Hi guys, I just wanted to contact you and thank you for the superb job Blinding Lights Band did at my wedding. They were absolutely fantastic! Everybody (and I mean, EVERYBODY) commented on what a great band you were, and how you kept the guests up and dancing. After reading your reviews on your website, they sounded almost too good to be true, but now I believe every single word! Some guests even labelled you 'the best band ever'. The band were great professionals and musicians, and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending or hiring you for my second wedding! Thank you again, you really did make the night! Kind regards, Clare"
