"I watched, I listened, I shed a few happy tears, I sang along and danced. At times their performance was so powerful it was like watching the real deal all those years ago. Only two bands have ever caused me to feel such raw powerful emotion. One is U2 & the other is U2Baby. When a performance grabs you heart and soul and causes your emotions to leak uncontrollably from your eyes you know they're damned good!"
Lissy - Worcester
"It was a real pleasure to mix these guys. Using their stand alone system for in ear monitoring, they sent me 6 channels + drums to mix. With no monitoring send needed, FOH was a real pleasure to mix. The technology used by U2Baby made my job real simple. Their hard work and technical know how made for an easy and proficient mix! Well done guys! It was a perfect formula - keep it up!!"
Brendan McGreal, CornishUnderGround
"Loved your band and your technical knowledge and show rig made it a whole lot easier for my sound team. Great working with a bunch of professional musicians who are also nice blokes to boot. See you on the next one mate!"
Mike Fogg, Manchester PA Hire (www.manchesterpa.co.uk)
"U2Baby played The Tap on the Sunday night of May Day Bank Holiday weekend and went down a storm. Very authentic sound which pulled in a great crowd who loved every second. Can't wait to get them in again."
Matt Heritage, The Brewery Tap Abingdon Oxfordshire
"We had U2Baby perform a 45 minute set at our event in September at the Compleat Angler in Marlow in aid of the Longridge Activity Centre. The guys not only scarily looked the part but were pitch perfect and we were really pleased with the addition they made to the event. The guys were professional, capable and self sufficient. From an organisers point of view they were fantastic as we had already met at the venue a month before and knew where they were going to be set up, so they didn't need any hand-holding or guidance from us on the day, which made things so much easier. As a team we would definately recommend U2Baby for any event."
Simon Branney, Event Organiser
"The U2Baby duo helped us out by standing in at last minute to headline Thrupp Live - they played a blinding one hour set of all the best known U2 songs and looked and sounded just like Bono and the Edge."
Tom Clark . TAD Studios
"I booked U2Baby - a U2 tribute act - for a music & beer festival called Stonesfield Septembeerfest. In short they absolutely nailed it. The crowd loved them. If Bono and Edge had showed up I don't think it would have sounded any better. Brilliant performance guys. Together with Brendan McGreal awesome sound engineering it sounded fantastic out front."
Chris Bartle, Music Organiser, Stonesfield Septembeerfest
"Went to an 80's tribute festival at Ashton-on-Mersey Rugby Club in Sale. U2Baby were fantastic. They made my husband's night by playing his favourite song Bad. U2Baby are the best U2 tribute band we have seen. They all looked and sounded like the real band. Would definitely see them again."
Samantha Ince Visser, at Manchester's 80sFest 2016
""Bono should be worried, as the singer could easily take his job! Favourite memories of the night were New Year's Day and the fact they included two tracks from their first album Boy and explained how they started the band. "We'll shine like stars in the summer night, We'll shine like stars in the winter night, One heart, one hope" at the end of my favourite song 'With Or Without You' and finishing the U2 set with 'Bad'. I also liked the inclusion of snippets of songs like Ruby Tuesday - U2Baby have certainly done their homework. The best U2 tribute band I have seen."
Gill Watts, at Manchester's 80sFest 2016
"Looking for a band to headline a festival is always going to be difficult especially when it is your first but from the very start U2Baby have been nothing less than a joy to work with. So many people came up to me after the gig to say how wonderful they were as a band and more than one said that they felt it was THE real U2 on stage due to the careful attention to detail. I cannot recommend this band highly enough. ”
Gillian Potter-Merrigan, Director, 80sFest 2016
"U2Baby headlined Trib Fest Bahrain 2018 and gave the 5000 strong festival crowd an amazing show that they absolutely loved. The boys really rocked it and the crowd sang along to hit after hit. I've had superb feedback on their set from the attendees. We will 100% be having them back for this and other events in the future."
Owner and Promoter of Trib Fest Bahrain
"What an amazing start to our monthly Tribute Nights. U2Baby rocked, the crowd loved the opportunity to listen to their favourite music all night. 80 tickets sold in advance with a further 70 on the night and they stayed . With two encores what more could a venue ask for, thank you! U2Baby - definitely recommend this band great show xx"
Shoot Music Venue Aylesbury
"There are tribute bands that once you've seen them play you don't want to see another tribute to the original. U2Baby are that kind of tribute. Their technical setup was a breeze, they handled their own monitoring and I mixed Front of House via feeds from their desk. We are looking forward to having U2Baby back at Fat Lil's very soon."
Zac Spink, Music Director, Fat Lil's Live Music and Comedy Venue, Witney
"Chequer Mead prides itself on quality entertainment. When it comes to tribute bands we only book the best in the business. U2Baby fall into that category. With an uncanny portrayal of Bono, both vocally and visually, and backed by an incredible band, U2Baby are a must for any booker, promoter, or U2 fan."
Pete Jenkins, Centre Manager, Chequer Mead Theatre, East Grinstead
"One of Europe's leading U2 tribute bands."
Hotpress - July 2017
"U2Baby played some spine-tingling U2 covers in the HP40 exhibition in the NPA, Temple Bar, Dublin this afternoon ahead of the U2 Croke Park gig tonight."
Hotpress Music Magazine
“U2Baby performed two magnificent shows for us the weekend U2 played Croke. They are THE U2 tribute that we fly to Ireland for our major events due to their authenticity, professionalism and absolute attention to detail. The guys are easy to work with and we would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for the closest tribute to the real thing you can get."
Darren Moore, General Manager, The Church Cafe Bar and Restaurant Dublin
"It was 40 years ago yesterday that I joined my first band, they've done ok over the years (although nothing to give 29 Fingers any cause for concern ha ha). So off I went to Dublin to join in the #U240 celebrations and had to do a double take when I saw the U2 tribute band U2Baby rocking it up in a crowded, hot and sweaty Church Bar by the Liffey. With a few pints of Guinness blurring the edges (no pun intended) I was transported back to '78 and the Dandelion Market Saturday afternoon U2 gigs. If you like U2 go and see this band..."
Ivan McCormick, one of the guys that was in Larry Mullen’s kitchen before U2 became U2
“I thought U2Baby were amazing. I think I prefer them to U2 - and it was much easier to get in!”
Guggi - renowned artist and Bono's best friend since the days of Cedarwood Road
