Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 8, 2012•From Minneapolis, MN

I can't even begin to tell you how incredible the covers were Saturday night! They had a little something for everyone in the audience and kept everyone on the floor all night. Their energy and enthusiasm kept the crowd pumped up and the music quality and range was fantastic. The right band can make or break a wedding and my one task for the wedding was to pick the band. Thank god I choose The Covers because they killed it and made me look like a hero!

I would recommend The Covers to all family and friends!!! They were absolutely amazing. We have had many bands play at family weddings, and they topped them all, in my opinion. We kept getting compliments all night about how great they were and continue to hear about them. Bruce was so easy to work with, made sure to check in with us, and just allowed the night to go absolutely smoothly. Sara singing Adele's version of "Make You Feel My Love" still brings tears to my eyes. The dance floor was packed the entire night--at one point a family member looked out and we had people dancing from 2 to 87 years old. It doesn't get much better than that! Absolutely Amazing!

The Band was awesome all night, we couldn't have been any happier that they played for our wedding. I received compliments all night long that it was the best reception people have ever attended. The band kept people on the dance floor from 4 years old to 90 all night long. I am so glad that we booked the Covers for our wedding reception. So glad that we could get both Jennifer and Sarah they sounded amazing together. Chris & Molly

The Covers made the wedding perfect! The thing that impressed me the most was that they were having fun and it showed. Everyone raved about how good the band was. Thank you to the whole band for making the long drive and being so awesome!

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 19, 2011•From Eau Claire, WI

The Covers recently played a holiday party for members of our private country club. They ranged from traditional Christmas music to swing to modern Top 100 hits. They were great and managed to keep a crowd with ages ranging from 25 to 75 happy! I would definitely recommend them for a corporate party, wedding or anything!

Could not be happier. The band was a huge hit with our guests, plus when we got behind schedule during the reception and the band started later, they offered to play later. Completely impressed with that. Also, if someone requested a song the band would play that song next. Never really see that often.

Bruce was an absolute joy to work with!!! The Covers ROCKED! EVERYONE commented on how great the band was. You guys (includes the gal singer!) totally brought the fun we were hoping to have at our reception. And thank you for learning the song for our first dance. You sounded GREAT and it meant so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 3, 2014•From Minneapolis, MN

The Covers were absolutely amazing. Getting a quote and booking the band was easy, as was communicating with the band. The band was accomodating to our schedule and they were very discreet with setup. They learned the song for our first dance and it was wonderful. The song selection was great! Everyone was out on the dance floor the entire night! The only downside was that guests would trickle out during the later band breaks! We had the band select the playlist for band breaks and it was great too. The band members were respectful, professional, and so very sweet. I would hire them again in a heart beat and I think everyone else should too!

Wedding•Reviewed on August 12, 2014•From Saint Paul, MN

We would give The Covers 6 Stars if possible! We used The Covers to provide the entertainment for our recent wedding reception--it couldn't have gone better!! Professionalism: Out of all of the details associated with planning a party -- we never had to stress about our entertainment with The Covers. Top notch professionalism. Entertainment: The Covers provided non-stop entertainment the entire evening! Throughout the night the dance floor was packed, and guests couldn't stop giving compliments about the band. Weeks later, guests are still talking about the band! The set list was top-notch and was carefully crafted in order to provide fun the entire night!

Wedding•Reviewed on May 26, 2014•From Minneapolis, MN

Fantastic band! The Covers made our wedding reception an absolute blast. Guests were telling us all night long how great the band was. We had relatives dancing that had literally never danced at wedding receptions before. The dance floor was packed from the first song until the last. The musicians are extremely talented, fantastic singing, great variety of music. If you're looking for a fun, talented band that can bring the groove and funk and rock this is your band. Extremely easy to work with. Authentically performed everything from Stevie Wonder to Bon Jovi Thank you again to The Covers for a great night! We're looking for an excuse to hire them again...

Holiday Party•Reviewed on January 18, 2014•From Minneapolis, MN

The Covers did a great job for us. Bruce was very professional and all of the details of setting up, getting started on time, etc. went smoothly. At one point I asked them to bring the volume down a bit (the stage was close to the area where people were congregating to talk) and they responded immediately. I got lots of positive comments back from event attendees. NICE JOB!

Celebration•Reviewed on November 3, 2013•From Cottage Grove, MN

I had so many of my guests ask if I had a special contact in the music business to be able to book such a great band! Next time I host a party with live music The Covers will be my first call. Sarah Renner is a gifted vocalist.

Wedding•Reviewed on September 30, 2013•From Minneapolis, MN

The Covers were absolutely amazing!!! I would recommend them to anyone. Bruce and Amanda were so fantastic to work with, so accommodating and the best part, so responsive anytime I had a question. They had our guests dancing and having a blast literally all night long. People were complimenting them and asking who they were and where we found them all night. Truly the best band I have ever heard and seen at a wedding! We couldn't have asked for anything better. The Covers are awesome!! Thank you times a million!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on August 28, 2013•From Chaska, MN

The Covers played at our wedding reception on 8/24/13 in Coon Rapids, MN and did a FANTASTIC job! The dance floor was packed the whole night and everyone thought they were great. I came up with some last minute details for them and they were able to get it done without any flaws. Great people to work with!

Review by Jessi L.

Wedding•Reviewed on June 3, 2013•From Minneapolis, MN

We found Bruce to be very easy to work with and their talent is amazing, so much so everyone was commenting on how good the band was! Not only did they take the time to learn Hava Nagila for our wedding, but they also took the time to learn a Portuguese Fado that we had selected for our first dance in weeks! We are very happy with the band, their ease to work with and their willingness to learn music, I would definitely recommend them for any event as they are very versatile. Not to mention they also had a bad band member that did the P.A. for our wedding and was also very professional and easy to work with. We're looking forward to seeing them again in August!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 8, 2013•From Saint Paul, MN

Dealing with them prior to the event The Covers were fantastic with communication through email. I received timely responses always. They learned a song for our first dance and then took over on the music, playing a fantastic set and removing any worry I may have had regarding song selection. When the actually event came they blew us and our guests out of the water. My father in law has been recommending them to many and we would recommend them to anyone. It was so fun, people were on the dance floor all night, and I couldn't be happier with our reception.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on November 20, 2012•From Minneapolis, MN

They were great!! My family is from Sconie (not known for dancing) and they packed the dance floor! They showed up right on time, were VERY professional, and were fun to talk to and very accommodating. I cant recommend them enough! They seemed kinda spendy when I was looking to book, but they were worth and earned EVERY penny!

Halloween Party•Reviewed on October 20, 2013•From Saint Paul, MN

Our birthday and Halloween party at the Wabasha Street Caves was likely to have been successful for lots of reasons.....but The Covers absolutely sealed the deal. Our family and friends danced all night! The variety, the sound, the energy that The Covers maintained throughout the evening was truly impressive. We had so many people tell us how much they loved the band. Thanks for everything! You guys rocked the place.

Private Party•Reviewed on February 9, 2018•From Minneapolis, MN

The Covers were such a huge asset to our event!! From the beginning they were so great to work with, flexible, and accommodating! Their set list kept our guests engaged and entertained for the entire evening. I highly recommend them for any event!!!!

Wedding•Reviewed on June 18, 2017•From Hammond, MN

We feel so blessed to have had The Covers play at our wedding. Not only did they sound AMAZING (we got SO many compliments from guests), but they were friendly, professional, and very accommodating; they took the time to learn an obscure song for our first dance -- which was also amazing -- and worked seamlessly with us and our wedding planners to adjust for stormy weather by completely switching their stage set up to make sure we could keep our guests dancing until the very end. We had people dancing who NEVER dance, and everyone truly had a wonderful evening thanks to The Covers' talent and flexibility. We cannot thank them enough.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 20, 2016•From Chanhassen, MN

The Covers performed at our wedding reception and we got compliments from our family and friends all night long. They were fantastic to work with, learned a song for us, and kept the dance floor packed! It was perfect for our guests because they play a great variety of music for all age groups. The Covers made our wedding reception so perfect and so special!
