“There are lots of bands around who claim to sound ‘just like the real thing’ but 'The Big Beat' are the best live covers band we have ever hired. On hearing the guys playing Lenny Kravitz’s ‘Are You Gonna Go My Way’ from outside Old Trafford at rugby league’s Grand Final in 2008, one fan asked me how we’d managed to secure Lenny for such an event. Big Beat are professional, flexible and very easy to work with and your audience will leave your event wondering how four guys can play such varied material and still sound like the real thing every time.”

"I hired The Big Beat for an event for 700 Event Organisers, the elite of the industry, 

and they went down a storm!!

They created an amazing atmosphere that resulted in the whole room dancing and having a great time. As a group they are very professional and are more than happy to work with you to ensure their set works with whatever you are trying to create for your event. I would definitely book them again".

We used The Big Beat for an event to launch the Super League season at the Trafford Centre in Manchester.
They were excellent and played a great range of music that appealed to the diverse range of people that shop at the Trafford Centre.
Their music certainly attracted hundreds of extra people to our event, and it has to be said that the majority of the audience were tapping their toes and singing along before they finished their set.
I’d certainly recommend them to anyone, and we have booked them for a second event; this time to entertain 30,000 rugby fans at Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh.

Hi guys,
Just a line or two to offer you sincere thanks for your performance at Caroline and Rick' wedding on Saturday night.You were amazing. All our friends have complimented us on our choice of you as our band and you fully lived up to my expectations. I think I told one of you after your gig (I was a little drunk and tired so I can't remember which one of you it was) that my favourite live band, before their demise, was Free. I saw them play small venue gigs twice. Each time they played All Right Now and my memory is that they never played it better than you did on Saturday. Perhaps you should add The Stealer and The Hunter to your repertoire!
Also thanks for playing Desperado for my benefit. My spies at the MEN on Saturday night tell me that The Eagles played it as an

I wish you every success in your business. It must be hard but you thoroughly deserve to to well. If you need a reference for any similar gigs please don't hesitate

Regards and sincere thanks,
Ivor - proud father of the bride.
