"My Dad would have been thrilled to bits about it, he really liked working with younger people, and specially musicians, who he thought appreciated his humour - and it kept him young all his life. It has been really great for me to keep his memory alive. All the best, and 'Deep Joy' from me and all the Unwin family" |

"Well, I know some people were nervous about the debut performance of the newest tribute to the Small Faces (BIG shoes to fill) but people weren't disappointed! At last they were on stage... what we'd all been waiting for. WOW! You can't fail to woo me when you start with my all time favourite.. that rocking number 'Whatcha Gonna Do About It'. It was like being transported back in time, like being there the first time. I had to control my instinct to scream! people had been raving Matt Bond's voice and wow they were right. It was one roller coaster after another (do you really want me to list 'em all?) Thank you Small Fakers for a brilliant night. You did good. Can't wait to hear you again." |

"I had the privelege of being at the Small Fakers debut gig last night in central London and witnessed the launch of possibly the first ever Small Faces tribute band. Just the one word describes them... AWESOME" As far as tribute bands go they're better than anything I've seen before and I've seen a lot of 'em. The sound is authentic and the visuals excellent with definitely the best 'Steve Marriott' I've ever seen. Not only does he look like Steve circa 1967, he's got the mannerisms off to a tee. If we ever get film rights to 'All Too Beautiful' we would need look no further than this guy (Matt Bond). With bands like Who's Who and The Jamm doing so well on the circuit there was a conspicuous space out there for a Small Faces tribute which has now been filled. Check 'em out, you won't be disappointed" |

"The Cavern Club last night is the best night out I've had in a long time. I could watch the Small Fakers play every night of the week and never tire of watching you play. Matt.. unbelievably so much like Marriott, I still cant put my finger on it, I've seen loads of people copy Steve Marriott.... (some get the stage moves of to a tee) but Matt just HAS Steves mannerisms theres no trying with him its just there, even the smile. Thank you so much all of the Small Fakers making some peoples dreams come true, I never got to see the Small Faces, and would never have witnessed anything like it in my life time (or the next) but thanks to you guys I have. Dont stop what your doin ;-)" |
