Cover'd |
 |
|
We're a three-piece (currently!) covers band that seamlessly
combines live performance with cutting edge technology
to reproduce the finest rock & pop classics of the
last half-century. Sound & Light..? An immeasurable
amount of time, effort & money has proudly been
invested in developing our computer controlled, class-leading
sound & lighting production that really gives the
client something very special. Just ask anyone who has
experienced it - it's far from the ordinary :-) Tunes..?
The theory goes, that if you do something as intensely
as we have for almost ten years, then things would have
to be seriously amiss if you didn't learn how to get
the best from it. So, after hundreds of shows, we are
confident at being able to deliver a live set just right
for any situation. Our versatility has been complimented
many times - but that has only come about by striving
hard to give something to everyone. From The Beatles
to The Darkness & Queen to Keane, we do all of this
and most in between!
Conviction is king however - we believe in what we do.
Ask yourself how many times you have seen bands merely
going through the motions..? When we perform a song,
there is a definite sense of reality present. It could
almost be them! Gigs..? With combined time as musicians
spanning practically seventy-five years, this not only
displays clearly how young we all were when we started
out ;-) but also that we will have gained very extensive
experience of all types of venues. We have performed
in pubs, clubs, hotels, holiday centres, halls, theatres,
marquees & open air shows all around the country
(in fact, make that internationally - we have played
in Scotland & Wales!). |

Debbie
Boyd Band |
 |

The Debbie Boyd band is perfect for Corporate Dinner
Dances, Balls, Private Parties, Weddings, Jewish Celebrations
and Scottish Ceilidhs. Every night is different with
The Debbie Boyd Band as Debbie’s years of experience
in theatre entertainment and her exceptional voice combine
with the incredible musical talents of the rest of the
band to produce a show that holds the attention of everyone
in the room, packs the dancefloor, is interactive and
totally personal. Music aside, what really sets this
band apart is Debbie's personality. Her charisma and
exuberant sense of fun is infectious. Never prepared
to just turn up, sing and go home, Debbie’s gift
is to make sure every night is a roaring success and
she achieves this, every time, without fail. If your
guests are not ready to dance, Debbie will work the
tables, making a fuss of them, encouraging them to relax
and enjoy themselves. Once they’re on the dancefloor,
she keeps them there, singing and dancing with them,
ensuring everyone has a great time. Much as a DJ is
responsive to a crowd, Debbie also has uncanny sense
of what the audience wants, frequently changing the
planned setlists, right there and then, to better suit
the mood on the dancefloor. And with the band’s
extensive repertoire of crowd pleasing favourites, she
certainly has plenty to choose from!
By the end of the night, Debbie will know many of the
guests by name and everyone will feel special and included.

In Music |
 |
| Lost
In Music – 6-11 piece live function band, huge set
list! Costumes if required. We often play one set as general
party music, then one as a themed band. A 3-piece brass
section and 2 extra lead singers can be added to our basic
6-piece line up of drums, bass, keys, guitar, male lead
vocal and female lead vocal. We generally like to have
as many singers as the function can afford – this
means that 2 singers can go off for a costume change mid-set
(for example, into an Abba or Grease costume) whilst there
are still a singer or two on stage. Much more showy. |
