The Copies is highly recommended

"Thank you all so much for performing at our wedding reception on the 1st September 2012. We have had so many comments from such an age range of people saying how good you were on the night!!! You really were unbelievable and we enjoyed every minute of it.

We would also like to thank you so much for learning our first dance song – we were unsure you would be able to learn it in the time we gave you but you did and it was great and such a nice touch. We are now nearly 3 weeks after the wedding and the band is still such a hot topic so we cannot thank you enough.

On top of being great you were also very helpful, friendly and funny. We had all sorts of concerns over how much space you would need but you worked with what you had without a hint of fuss.

We would not hesitate in recommending you to others and will be in touch for any future do’s we have ourselves!!!

"The Copies were incredible at our wedding on 12.05.12. The whole place rocked from the moment they started to the end. They learnt and played our requested first dance song like the pro's they are, we were blown away. The lead vocalist has the most amazing soulful voice and can sing anything it seems.

We had so many compliments on the band, my feet ached at the end of the night from all the dancing. Thank you so very much for being a crucial part to our dream wedding. You guys are legends and I would not hesitate to recommend you- in fact I'd sing it from the roof tops.

A very happy Mr and Mrs Lloyd x"

"I must pass on this news to you, so many of my family/friends at the wedding have either commented on the fantastic band and how they danced all night and/or have asked us for your contact details in view of a booking.

It was an amazing performance you all did!!!!! I cant thank you all enough. Please can you pass this onto the rest of the band.....as you all made our wedding one to remember!!!!!"

"We picked The Copies on the basis of a combination of recommendation and agency search.

The Copies demo tracks were impressive compared with other bands and they have a great playlist. What sealed the deal was talking to Justin - he's friendly, helpful and gives a great feeling of confidence.

The expectation was high - their performance was better. The band was gigging at a wedding in central London, and the feedback we got was sensational. I thought they were great, my daughter thought they were great, even my wife was impressed! Guests texted after to say that the band were a highlight of the evening.

These guys are terrific and you simply can't get better for a function or party. I wouldn't bother looking anywhere else!

"The band you supplied were superb and everyone had a great evening. The lads in the band were a great bunch and they said that they too had a good time, so all in all a success.

I am soon to step down as the Entertainments manager in our mess but I will ensure that I pass on your details on to my successor so that we can book through your company for future events.

Kind Regards
