We booked the Covernotes for our 25th anniversary party. Great music and good cross section of tunes that appealed to the entire crowd. On time, professional and amazing sound. Highly recommended. Made the event special!

Response from The Covernotes:
Hi Kelly! Thank you so much for the compliments! Congratulations again on your 25th Wedding Anniversary!
Ken and the Covernotes were amazing for our event! We hosted a corporate winter event with about 80 attendees and we think they left a great impression with all of our guests. The tunes were great and certainly a good level of professionalism. Ken was super duper to work with, very accommodating with our specific needs in terms of volume, play time among other silly requests I had! As someone who doesn’t typically do events on a day-to-day basis, Ken was very flexible in approach and was happy to make some adjustments on the fly. They bring all of their own equipment so I didn’t even need to worry about that! I would highly recommend the Covernotes if you’re looking to spruce up your event, you won’t regret it 😊

Thank you for booking us to perform for your corporate party and the amazing review. It was a real pleasure working with you.
The Covernotes were amazing, from start to finish. In the days leading up to our event, back and forth communications we’re an absolute breeze - arranging logistics couldn’t have gone smoother with their incredible knowledge of what they needed from us in order to ensure their best performance for our community. They even customized their set list to include Halloween inspired music to go with the theme of our event. On the day of, The Covernotes did not disappoint. Everyone loved their performance and eclectic music selections that literally catered to everyone in our crowd - even the kiddos. Over 1000 people in our community had the pleasure of being entertained by them and we look forward to working with them again. The Treetops Community thanks you for adding that extra special touch to our inaugural Boo Bash!!!!

Thank you for booking us to perform for your Inaugural Halloween Community event. You and the whole Boo Bash team were great to work with in the lead up. The organisation of the event was great and the Haloween decorations looked awesome. We had such a great time performing for the community!
We couldn't be happier with the band we hired for our corporate event! Their song selections were spot-on, perfectly matching the mood and keeping everyone engaged throughout the night. The sound quality and vocal performance were outstanding, truly elevating the atmosphere of the evening. We were impressed with their punctuality and professionalism, as well as the versatility of their repertoire, which catered to a variety of tastes. We would absolutely hire them again for future events and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional live music.
The Covernotes played at our party on Saturday and were great! Everyone said what a good band they are and we are looking for an excuse to book them again. Professional, helpful and a great selection of songs that my sons also enjoyed. Thanks guys!

The Covernotes played at our wedding and were awesome! The weather was unexpectedly good so they took the initiative and moved outside to play acoustically instead, which went down a treat. They then played inside during canapés and dinner. They played a great range of music using different instruments and even allowed us to pick out our favourites in advance, a huge thanks to the guys for helping to make it a perfect day. Highly recommend to anyone!
Wedding Band
I hired The Covernotes for my husband's surprise 50th, based on their show reel video, wide set repertoire and their prompt and simple communication style. We were blown away with how good the Covernotes were! We wanted to mark the milestone with getting together family from afar, friends old and new to help celebrate it. The Covernotes repertoire of songs was already so extensive and even on the night, they were able to perform requests from the guests. They sounded so good, and really got the guests up and dancing for practically all of the evening. We had a real mix of ages and everyone commented on how brilliant the band were! They were super professional, turning up on time, quick set up, no fuss and super friendly! Music to suit everyone and real dance floor fillers! They had a background playlist between sets and mingled with the guests. Thank you so much for making the party so much fun! Couldn’t recommend enough!
