Here's what one recent customer had to say about Take Cover:

"We very much enjoyed your band. Thank you for playing. The dance floor was full all night. It was a lively party.

It was very good to meet you beforehand and discuss the format of the evening then. You responded very promptly to my emails and offered good suggestions for the format of the evening, etc.

The band was very flexible- thank you as we did overrun on the timing for dinner quite a lot. You were also very flexible in the set playing and CD session timing (interval music). We like the songs played very much.

Although the internet site did not look as glossy as some of the other band sites we looked at, all the information we needed was there and it was easy to follow.

We have had a lot of positive comments form our guests about the band. The band member were very friendly and outgoing.

We would definitely recommend you to others looking for a band for a special occasion."
