Reviews of Love For Sale

We loved having Love for Sale, created a lovely atmosphere, really enjoyed their sets, can’t recommend them enough ! Thanks very much

John was quick to respond and super helpful in the lead up to the event. Very accommodating. The band was fantastic and exactly what we had hoped for. Couldn't recommend this group enough

I wanted to say a HUGE thank you to you and the band, not only for swooping in at the last moment, but for being so instinctive with the crowd. I had so many compliments and kind words, so I wanted to pass those on! We would certainly have you again in an instant

Thank you to John and the band for a fantastic event. All through the afternoon I had guests at our party coming up to say how amazing the band was. The music was just excellent and the perfect balance for the party - present but not imposing, and they really transformed the event into something special. I would highly recommend them. John was super helpful in the weeks up to the event in terms of advice around timings etc, and was totally flexible when we moved things around. They were prompt, discreet, friendly and professional, and the music was just fantastic. Thank you so much!

It was such a fantastic day so thank you so much for being such a big part of it. It’s so great that you knew exactly what to do and were familiar with the structure. Thank you so much and hope to have you again next year!

Hiya John, Ed here
Thank you so so much for yesterday and making it so special.
So many of my friends came up to say how much they loved you!
I saw Fran (Venue Owner) asking for your details too so hopefully get some gigs in we can come back to.
Thanks again to the whole band and much love

I honestly cannot praise the band highly enough. They were great. Our 10 year old grand daughter played with them and they just helped her and played with her completely letting her steal the show. Their music was great just right for our party and they were lovely to deal with. Would definitely recommend and would absolutely use them again for another party.
Thank you John Sam Theo and Kuba.

Love for Sale were amazing, the perfect fit for our anniversary garden party. They were incredibly professional, excellent communicators, self-sufficient in their set-up and of course their music was brilliant. Would highly recommend to any friend!

Thank you all so much!
It was absolutely amazing - special thanks for learning “only fools rush in” haha!
Many thanks

The magnificent Love for Sale! Just wanted to say a massive THANK YOU for being such a joy to work with..... All our guests commented on how great you were - seems to have provided a perfect backdrop for getting the drinks flowing in the reception. We just wish we could have spent more time enjoying your set, but such is the busy nature of being a bride and groom!

Dear John & Love for Sale,

Thanks for being the most perfect band for our wedding! A pleasure to work with and all our guests commented on how brilliant you were. Looking forward to seeing you at the Seveney and other gigs around London.

All the very best
Helen & Joe

A big shout out to this awesome jazz band who entertained us this last weekend. I recommend Love For Sale if you are looking for live music at your next event. No affiliation just a very happy customer.

Love for sale played brilliantly at our party, created a really mellow vibe, read the room perfectly and our guests have not stopped complimenting us on our choice of music.
Utterly professional and yet very relaxed. Great job and thank you to you all!

An amazing show - as per usual. I’m glad the pub was busy - bigger audience! And the staff loved it. Glad you guys enjoyed it too. Thank you for coming down

Love for Sale transformed our dinner party with the most perfect Jazz performance from a fantastic group of people.
Would definitely choose this band again within a shot !
Thanks all for such a great evening and very easy to work with .

LOVED this band who played wonderful jazz and couldn't have been more accommodating. I liked the fact that John, the band leader, was so thoughtful about how to get the party going with a nice welcoming vibe and also helped me decide when they should play and for how long etc. It was great having another person with whom to plan the right atmosphere.

The party was for an ex-trumpet player, so it was important that we had a proper jazz band - and they are!

So many of our guests said how much they loved the music; it really made the party. Thank you so much.

The second time we have used this band, they are so wonderful. We had an awards evening and the band played as people arrived, they were fantastic and lots of guests remarked how amazing they were!

Amazing band, exactly what we were after for a prohibition/Speakeasy party. Dressed the part and the music was perfect. A lovely bunch of guys to top it off!

If you are considering hiring Love For Sale to play your event then go for it. We have hired them for the last three years to play our reception and they never disappoint. They play a great mix of songs and really enhance the atmosphere. I noticed plenty of our guests smiling and taping their feet as they enjoyed the music. They are always organised, prompt, fun and professional. This year we had to change the location where they set up to play in the venue at short notice and they had no problem at all with this and just set up and got to playing. They are a very talented and friendly group of professionals. We look forward to seeing all of you again next year!

Love for Sale were extremely professional, attentive, friendly, easy to work with and last but not least very talented. The band played for 2 hours and were the highlight of the evening. I will definitely use and recommend this band again. Thank you for making our event a success!

Great evening with Love For Sale! Music was great and the band was very flexible and friendly. We had a great time withour clients and Love For Sale definitly knows how to create a great atmosphere. Thank you again!

A year or so ago love for sale caught my eye and i am so glad we went ahead and booked them for our wedding. Our venue had last minute music restrictions which was a shame as the band had to be put in a seperate room but the band still managed to make an impact. So many positive comments and compliments about them from our family. We would definitely book the band again for any future events and this time hopefully the venue will co operate! Thanks to all of you. Mr&Mrs Boland x

A year or so ago love for sale caught my eye and i am so glad we went ahead and booked them for our wedding. Our venue had last mibute

Love For Sale were quite simply fantastic! The booking and planning process was very smooth and their simple equipment requirements took a lot of the stress out because I could easily understand what was needed; this can be very daunting if you are not particularly technical! On the evening, the whole band were friendly and a pleasure to meet, they got themselves set up and were very accommodating when slight changes to plans were needed. The music itself was exactly what we had hoped for, they kept guests entertained throughout the drinks reception and meal, it was upbeat and cheerful but still at a comfortable volume to allow conversations. I cannot recommend the band highly enough, thank you to you all.

Thanks for bringing the vibes last night guys!

This is the second time we've booked Love for Sale for a staff party and the feedback has been so positive both times! A great band - highly recommended.

Hi John and band mates!

You have been all fantastic last Saturday on our Wedding Reception! Our guests had a great time hearing your music! You really had set a great mood that relaxed our guests as soon as you played! This is the second time around you have performed for us and we keep getting you because you are that great! Thank you so much! And we are both glad you enjoyed our wedding too! Our guests have left us with great praises about you! We really made the right choice on having you on our Wedding!
We do highly recommend you to anyone we know!

Thank you and God bless!

Vanessa and Mark

We absolutely loved you guys, we have had so many positive reviews from guests!
Our photographer took some fantastic shots of you guys. Once we have a copy of the photos I will send them round.
Thank you once again! You were all awesome.

Lovely to meet you talented bunch. We loved you. Thank you for helping us.

The band were absolutely awesome; it was exactly what we were looking for. Created
exactly the right kind of atmosphere and pulled people in off the street to see what
was happening. Honestly, I couldn't have been happier with the way it turned out.

I've definitely got a few dates in mind that I'd be interested in booking you guys
for this year and beyond.

Organised, punctual and professional from the outset, Love For Sale performed incredibly well in my pub, they are very talented musicians and I highly recommend them.

John and his band were an absolute dream! No request was too much and they totally put us at ease during the planning process. On the day they were beyond what we could have imagined and created such a wonderful vibe with the music they played. All our guests commented on how great and professional they were. We are so so happy with our choice. Thank you from the bottom of our heart Love for Sale!!

Great background music for our event, the band members were very punctual and they created a lovely atmosphere!

Excellent band. Wonderful accompaniment for our International Scholarships Reception for the second year running.

John, Amy, Ennio and Simon were fabulous - just as for previous reviewers the music was perfect for creating a great party atmosphere, relaxed but interesting and so many compliments from guests! Would recommend them without hesitation.

We really landed on our feet when we booked Love4Sale to play at Dad’s 80th birthday party. We wanted to arrange a special surprise, and knowing he loved jazz, we booked the band to provide the entertainement. John, Evie, Ennio and Simon (the band) played 3 sets and went down a storm, Dad still can’t get over the evening and being allowed a crack at the drums really made the night for him. I can’t recommend the band highly enough and would certainly book them again.

A great evening. Perfect weather, good company and fabulous music. Thank you Love for Sale.

Hi John and Love for Sale ,

Thank.you for making our event, i envisaged a summer evening setting for a cool band, and it was perfect. You certainly brought out the crowds. We sold 220 tickets - far beyond our expectations. A very enjoyable evening.

A very happy summer and hope we can have you next time. Will follow.you on instagram .

All the best kind regards

Diana and the Friends of the Rose garden committee.

Hi John thank you and all of the band , lovely music it was perfect. We loved your cool style. Everyone i talked to had a fabulous time. Hope we can have you next year, have a great summer and attached some photos.

Hi John and Love For Sale,
I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the weekend. I’ve had some great feed back!

I’ll be in touch re. future dates.
Mark

Hi LFS.
Thank you so much for performing last night. Everyone loved the music and it really added to the event.

Thank you so much to ‘love for sale’ my guest couldn’t stop raving about how great you all were and the music was sensational ! The prefect choice and is such a great add to any wedding .. can’t thank you guys enough and can’t wait to the next event to have you guys play again.

We've had Love For Sale at our last two annual conferences, as entertainment for the drinks reception, I would't hesitate to hire them again. They were easy to work with, professional, and most importantly the audience LOVED them! A pleasure to work with - they just got on with it! Great job - great band!

As the Events Officer for my university, I hired Love for Sale to perform for our Gatsby-themed prom night. It was a blast! The vintage music matched the theme perfectly, the artists were friendly and talented. Everyone enjoyed it! I highly recommend this band!

Brilliant, super talented musicians and lovely people to boot! Play cool, sexy sounds that everyone loves! Blown away by them and will definitely ask them back!!!

Love for Sale John, Karen and Ennio were absolutely fantastic: they were meant to be a surprise for my husband 40th birthday party and it all worked very well! They have been professional, organised, accommodating, punctual and, most importantly...they played fabulous music! The guests raved about their jazz, they definitely made the event a special one.

Thanks to you for being so accommodating and playing such great music. Everyone raved about you! Delighted to hear you enjoyed it too!

Thanks so much for the performance guys, everyone commented on how great the band were and you were all a delight to talk to as well. You really helped create a magical night for us.

We booked Love for Sale for our Wedding based on reviews here and their videos. They gave a fantastic performance at our wedding, despite the small space, creating the perfect atmosphere we wanted and were lovely to chat to afterwards. Would highly recommend them to anyone desiring a blue-note jazz band for any event.

Wow Amazing performance that really set the mood of my birthday party yesterday. My guests love your music and you are all so nice and gifted. It was very nice meeting you. I would highly recommend you to anyone I know. Thank you so much for performing at my party.

I've seen Love For Sale several times, they groove, in a laid back, sampled-in-your-favourite-90s-hip-hop-album kind of way. Definitely recommended!

What a fantastic performance!!! The band set the mood in the whole room. Ive seen them before at various locations... excellent!!!

Amazing sound and personalities of all the members. Extremely talented and entertaining. The sole reason I started liking jazz music

I've never come across a band with a fantastic way of playing Jazz.not too much crowding each other with respect to the sound each makes.Most of all the very sexy double bass player.Very refreshing I dont want to miss or hearing them and following them.The Best Band I've heard.

Seen these guys play about 10 times now and very enjoyable. Well played, good vibe between band members and no pretensions!

Great feedback (as always) from yesterday. You are becoming part of the furniture. Can we talk dates for next three months?

Great Gig Love For Sale at La Bohemia in North Finchley Festival !!!

Thanks so much to everyone in Love for Sale for coming and playing at the Myddleton Road Market yesterday. You are the best! See you soon. X

My first impression is how well they all get on. There is a lot of laughter even as they are setting up their stuff. Jazz musicians can be a bit moody but this lot don't take themselves so seriously. They are talking and joking with everyone all the way through. And you can see as they play, they are changing the music based on whats happening. Always sounds great. First time I saw them was in our pub on a Sunday lunchtime and at the end all these kids and their mums wanted to have selfies taken with the band and they were just delighted, letting the kids hold the instruments, messing about for the cameras. Their positive attitude makes a world of difference. I'm not surprised they have done so well. Don't forget where you started! Definitely recommend them.

Dependable, adaptable and charming, these guys have been the life of two of our exclusive events, a studio lunch with internationally acclaimed artists Idris Khan and Annie Morris and a Surrealist brunch at Christie's auction house. I would recommend them to all. John, the lead, will listen to what you have in mind and fill the brief perfectly, taking all the necessary steps with the venue to ensure everything is as smooth as jazz on the day.

A lovely band with good music knowledge that keep the night swinging with vibes that bring you alive and dancing all night.

Lovely music.

Great sounds, beautiful jazz, played with a lovely spirit and such taste, thank you.

Love For Sale were the perfect accompaniment to our celebratory event and made hiring a band one of the easiest and most pleasant experiences. Conversation was smooth, with nothing too much trouble and they were more than happy to work around our schedule. They were able to read the room well, and played accordingly. We received a great deal of positive feedback about the music, and the band were a hit with all our guests and they really did elevate our evening to the next level. Their flexibility, positive attitude and willingness to please make them suited to any occasion and I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again. In fact, I rather look forward to next year’s event in which I fully intend to have them back – if they’re free!

This is a must! I listen to them performing jazz standards and they are superb! I did enjoy every single note!

Beautiful band and awesome musicians.
Anyone that happens to cross their path, don't miss them.

Absolutly fantastic! I’ve heard them many times, I recommend this group to everyone who wants to hear good music ! A ++++

Beautiful group with very good musicians!
I recall it to anyone is in London and want to hear a great jazz music.

You want good vibes, swingy jazz and a trumpet sound smooth as honey? This is your band. I watched them by chance at Ruby's, a cocktail place in Dalston and for not expecting anything this was really a revelation.
I couldn't keep my feet still... They play with so much joy that it carries you straight away.

This jazz band really help create an amazing atmosphere for the launch event of Bracknell new Cineworld opening. Will 100% recommend them for future events.

Love for Sale is more than a jazz band. Love for Sale is the living demonstration of the vitality of jazz. Classy and elegant, their gigs are truly loved by music aficionados. I was at several concerts and I always go to listen to them when I am nearby. Love for sale rule!

Love for Sale were brilliant from start to end. Their communication was friendly, quick and very clear. John was so lovely in emails and phone calls and really made the booking so simple. The guys on the event day were brilliant, they arrived in plenty of time, were set up and ready to go at the event start time and were very professional. The music was wonderful and such a great addition to the party, they created a great drink atmosphere vibe and really lifted the mood. They accommodated a break in the set list for a birthday surprise and no request was to large or small. I would thoroughly recommend Love For Sale for any event and will certainly be using them in the future.

Wonderful and unique interpetation of classic standards creating a chilling atmosphere.

Just a quick note to say thank you again for playing last night at the YPO/YNG dinner at Idris and Annie's studio. I think last night's event was the highlight of the entire program and I am so glad Love for Sale could be part of it. We enjoyed having you all there and adding to such an amazing evening.

This is an amazing ensemble, and I really enjoyed their live performance. Everything sounds quite harmonic, including the trumpet which is probably the uniqueness of the group. Glad I was able to enjoy them live.

You were amazing. Everyone was delighted. Many thanks and I hope we can set up another Sunday before the end of the year.

Normally i walk away when there's live jazz at the venues but these guys attitude is the right one! They really look down to earth playing the music they enjoy and the good vibe comes straight at your face putting a smile on it. Can't wait to cross their path again.

I booked love for sale as a surprise for my husband's 50th birthday. He's a real jazz fan so I hoped he would enjoy it....he was over the moon! Thanks so much for making the day. Mary

This band really hits the spot - great!

Thanks so much for making our day really special.

Wicked band!

Specially beautiful and funny, listen it and you will become a fan.

This band is amazing! This people play with such a beautiful and positive energy. I enjoyed listening their music and dancing it!

LSF was amazing and all tap students enjoyed dancing with them. Highly recommend Love for Sale.

A wonderful band, great musicians.

Jazz by numbers, all the Blue Note classics delivered by hand. An inter-changeable line up without any loss of quality. Close your eyes and u will hear the smooth grooves of Burrell, Hubbard, Higgins and Carter (with a sprinkle of Grover for good measure). Discover the delicate vibes of Love For Sale, best heard live with a delightful cocktail.

Absolutely brilliant! Great music! Had such a good time listening to quality jazz pieces!

Lively entertaining group went out of way to make evening fun.

We hired Love For Sale for a client reception for around 100 people. The band was professional, on time, and flexible to our musical needs. They were able to alter their sound levels as necessary, and were very open to our comments throughout the night. I would definitely recommend Love For Sale for your corporate event.

Love for sale is a great band! They are deeply professional and enjoyable. A great way to listen to good jazz music made by nice musicians. Do not miss it!

Swingy vibes, get in the mood for jazz and enjoy your drinks and friends, Love For Sale.. well go and get it!!

Very professional and pleasure to deal with. Will recommend to anybody.
Great musicians!

Good music and great people. I started following them last year and since then i go to see them play every time they are nearby.

We booked Love For Sale for w Birthday celebration. They performed 2 sets . I cannot praise them enough. Had all the guest up and dancing and wonderful feed back from our guests aslo. Spelled blinding playing from the guitarist and sax player , while the drummer and bass player held a tight groove. Would highly recommended this band for hire. Very professional outfit .

Say these guys at Megaro King's Cross. They are great! Created the perfect vibe. Enjoyed it so much I became a bit of a regular! Nothing to do with the cocktails of course

Love For Sale were great. They were very professional and very talented! We received so much excellent feedback from staff.

Thanks so much for a fantastic evening... everybody had a wonderful time and we really didn't want you to stop.

Fabulous Band! The vibes between them and with the audience are the best!

I've had the pleasure of hosting and introducing this band on a few occasions and they have always been a joy to work with and to listen to. Quality band.
