Amazing! Nick made our night. He played at a private party and had everyone dancing and singing in minutes. We had so much fun!! I would hire Nick in a heartbeat. He seems to be able to play anything and cater to every age!

Nick entertained us at a friends birthday party. It was a wonderful evening and his performance was just the perfect finishing touch. He has an incredible voice and is a great musician as well as being a lovely guy too. He really got the party going as soon as he started. Would most definitely recommend Nick for any type of event.

10/10

Wow! Nick was an amazing musician and completely made my birthday party! He is a really talented guitarist and singer with a broad repertoire of genres and songs. After only one song, we were all up singing and dancing. His energy and enthusiasm were infectious. If you have a party, definitely book Nick. You won’t regret it.

Reply from Nick Stephenson (singer/guitarist)
Hi Alison This was easily one of my favourite gigs of 2026! I had a smashing time not just singing to everyone but chatting to you and your guests as well :) I really hope we can do this again! All the very best Nick

Nick is totally awesome, great musician, impeccable music taste, and full of energy. Nick played a great set at our party inspired by tunes we liked but curated in a way that made sure that he wasn’t just playing a predefined list. Can’t recommend enough!!!

Reply from Nick Stephenson (singer/guitarist)
It was honestly such a pleasure Dave! Thank you for inviting me to play to a lovely, fully engaged group of people in a beautiful setting :)
Jane Duffield-Bish (Party) 18 Sept 2026
10/10

We booked Nick for a party in July after hearing him play at the Goat Shed in April. He was absolutely brilliant and a major factor in making our party a huge success. Before the event he sent us an extensive list of the songs in his repertoire and invited us to pick any that we would like him to play. On the day he arrived in plenty of time to set up before the agreed start time and to chat to us about how we would like the afternoon to go. As soon as he started singing our guests were enthralled. His voice his fantastic and his arrangements of some well-known tracks are fresh and imaginative. He also had a great rapport with us and our guests. All in all we were absolutely delighted that we had booked Nick and have already booked him for another party next year.

Reply from Nick Stephenson (singer/guitarist)
Thank you so much for the lovely review Jane! It really means a lot and I shall look forward to seeing you and Paul again next year! All the best Nick
Rob Towns (Wedding) 17 Sept 2026
10/10

We saw Nick perform at Bar 44 in Aylsham last new year and knew straight away we wanted him to perform at our wedding. All the way through booking process Nick was amazing, he really helped us with our set list and kept us informed up to the big day.

The set itself was fantastic, Nick has a great voice and gave a fantastic performance. He even let one of our guests duet with him on islands in the stream which went down a storm. Everybody commented how good he was and how much they enjoyed it.

If you are thinking of having a singer for your event look no further. You won’t regret it.

Reply from Nick Stephenson (singer/guitarist)
Hi Rob! Thank you so much for inviting me to play at your wedding and also for this brilliant review! See again soon at Bar 44! :) All the best Nick
Natasha Griffiths (40th birthday party) 6 Sept 2026
10/10

Nick added a fantastic energy to our recent 40th birthday party, and everyone is still raving about his performance. He has a great eclectic song repertoire (even learning a few songs for us we'd requested specifically) that kept everyone singing and dancing. Highly recommend Nick for your event if you want a friendly, fun, engaging, energetic and very talented performer!

Reply from Nick Stephenson (singer/guitarist)
Hi Natasha! Thank you so much for inviting me to play and for this glowing review! Hope to see you again soon! Nick

Everyone enjoyed Nick's performance. A great mix of songs from rock and roll to pop. Even did one from Jungle Book for the kids. Had people dancing and singing along they were having such a good fun night. Top marks!

Nick performed at our Christmas Market Event at Wroxham Barns and was incredible! Not only is his voice amazing, but he was a pleasure to work with. We would definitely recommend booking Nick for any event!

What can I say about Nick other than wow wow wow! Nick was the star of our wedding reception. We only had a small wedding but Nick made it feel like a west end show! His enthusiasm, entertainment and commitment was from start to finish and people are still talking about him now nearly 6 month on. Thank you for making it so special!!! 100% recommend

10/10

I know Nick from his energetic performances he delivers at my work place so he was an obvious choice for our wedding. Nick was a hit on our big day. Luckily the weather was perfect so he entertained us outside. His powerful voice meant we could all hear him perfectly. Our guests commented on not only Nicks strong,flawless set and enthusiasm, as to what a genuinely nice guy he is. Thanks Nick for being a part of our special day. ❤️

Reply from Nick Stephenson (singer/guitarist)
Hi Cat For you I would do it again and again, it was such a great wedding with wonderful guests, setting and of course the lovely newly weds :) Thank you so much for inviting me and for writting this fantastic review, I really appreciate Best wishes Nick xx
Rob Dean (50th Birthday Party) 12 Feb 2026
10/10

We booked Nick for a 50th party, all being fans of bands like Queen and also loving anything in the way of 80s music (and we are big 80s movies fans!) we'd been after someone who could play a varied selection outside in the garden.

And what a set Nick put on for us!

Played in 2 halves with a short break, he must have been playing for the best part of 3 hours in total as everyone kept asking for one more song!

Covering hits from from the film Pretty in Pink (wife's fave film), Tom Jones through to the Police and I'm sure someone had him do some heavy rock at one point!
Queen hits including a solo version of Bohemian Rhapsody was just out of this world (and the lady who runs their fan club was here to see that one!)
But surely the best moment of the night for me was Nick playing Life on Mars in front of my TARDIS when it was all lit up (his set started in daylight and ended late!)
Fantastic entertainment and I would highly recommend Nick to anyone looking for that something special for a party, wedding or just an excuse to have a good time with live music!

Reply from Nick Stephenson (singer/guitarist)
Rob you simply ran the BEST PARTY with such wonderful attention to detail and atmosphere! It was hard not to rise to the occasion and even harder to stop playing! I could have gone all night :) Thank you thank you thank you for the invite and now for this fantastic review! I hope to see you at the next one! 'Is there life on Maaaaars??!!' Nick
Becky (Wedding) 11 Feb 2026

Jo Parkes (50th Birthday Charity Fundraiser for PTSD UK) 29 Jul 2024
10/10

Rather than a big birthday party my husband decided he would prefer to raise money for PTSD UK so a Charity fundraiser was organised.
Having heard Nick a number of times before at our local pub, we knew he was one of the best musicians we have heard.
Nick sent a list of his repertoire over and my husband had great fun going through the list and choosing such an eclectic mix of songs to suit a varied audience.
Nick was well received by all interacted fabulously with the crowd and we successfully raised £553 for PTSDUK
Thank you Nick for being the 'icing on the cake' of a fabulous night :-).

Reply from Nick Stephenson (singer/guitarist)
Jo it was my absolute pleasure! Thank you so much for booking me and for this amazing review, I really appreciate it and I hope you are both well, All the best Nick

Nick was a fantastic addition to my 40th birthday party, and kicked off the party to a great start.
His voice and guitar skills are amazing and gave some great energy too.
To top it all off, he’s lovely to talk to, made everything easy to arrange. I would definitely have him play again for any occasion!
Thank you Nick!

Hi Julia, thank you so much for this lovely review and for booking me of course, it was great to meet you :) All the very best! Nick

It was an absolute pleasure to have Nick perform for our residents. He was very engaging and had a great list of songs that they loved. He was loud enough for all our residents to hear which is so important. Nick had great presence and was very comfortable taking requests from our crowd. Would definitely have him back again (in fact, we are)!!

Reply from Nick Stephenson (singer/guitarist)
Thank you so much for this lovely review! It was wonderful to see the residents reacting so positively to what I was singing and seeing them smile and sing along was such a pleasure! I can't wait to come back, please let me know if anyone has any future requests and I'll see what I can do :) I love to see people happy BIG THANK YOU and see you again soon! Nick x

10/10

Honestly Nick is amazing! I booked him for my friends 40th as a surprise and he didn’t disappoint.
Excellent communication and I gave him a rough playlist of the sort of music we would like and he got it spot on.
Everyone commented on how good he was and he was definitely the highlight of the weekend.
I really cannot recommend him enough!

Reply from Nick Stephenson (singer/guitarist)
Hi Kelly Thank you so much for this amazing review! I absolutely loved performing for everyone :)

Nick is a genuine 10/10. His material is exceptional and broad from the most popular big tunes to the little gems music nerds will love. I will use Nick again without a shadow of a doubt. He’s also a really friendly guy with a great energy.

We would like to say a HUGE thank you to Nick for performing at our wedding reception recently. My wife is a massive David Bowie fan and it made the day even better that Nick was able to perform an entire set of Bowie songs on request! We loved Nick's performance and cannot recommend him highly enough!

Nick was absolutely brilliant at our event. Turned up bang on time, was flexible, approachable and played so well. Everyone commented on how good he sounded. I would definitely use him again and would like to thank him for being brilliant to work with. Thank you, Natasha.

I booked Nick for a surprise family party. He was just brilliant! Everyone young and old got up and danced the night away. Nick is very good at reading the room and was able to keep us all on our feet willingly. We had a blast and barely let him leave the building with many calls for encores. I would highly recommend Nick for any event. He will make it one to remember.

Thank you so much for this glowing review! I loved performing at your party and hope to see you again soon :) All the best, Nick
Alexander Dakers (Art exhibition) 20 Sept 2021
10/10

This guy was incredible honestly incredible I felt as if was in a concert. He should do the voice as he has a great voice and character on stage. I will definitely be in touch with him and can highly recommend him for ever event. I had an art exhibition and was very successful but his vip music helped take the experience to a new level. 10 out of 10 Nick??

Hi Alex, I realse I never thanked you for this GLOWING review! Thank you so much! I loved performing at your event and I hope to see you again soon :) All the best, Nick
Lewis Edgley (private function) 12 Aug 2020
10/10

Nick was amazing.. I am based in Australia and was arranging a last minute gig for an intimate family occasion.. it was less than 24 hours notice and from the first communication and he was so helpful and friendly and even learned a new song for the event. I wasn't able to make the performance but was lucky enough to see it on video and to say he nailed it is an absolute understatement. He played acoustic guitar and sang, unamplifed, in an outdoor garden area and sounded amazing.. He played The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Beatles, Gerry Rafferty, Carole King and more.. his melodic voice and the acoustic guitar really came together for an incredible performance that my family were absolutely blown away by. Cannot recommend him highly enough and secretly hoping he comes to Sydney with his family at some point so he can play live for me here (and I can buy him a beer!). Thanks Nick, you're a legend.

Reply from Nick Stephenson (singer/guitarist)
Hi Lewis Wow thank you so much for the amazing review and you are more than welcome, I'm genuinly so so happy to have done this for you and your family. We will defintely give you a shout if we ever come to Sydney! :) I would absolutely love that. Once more a big THANK YOU for asking me to play and all the very best to you and your family Nick

Nick played at our daughters wedding and Wow!! He was absolutely amazing, so professional and everyone was asking where did you find him!! From the bottom of our hearts we would like to thank Nick for making our daughters wedding so special. We could not have asked for more and we will definitely be booking him again!

Anne Williams (Private party) 18 May 2019
10/10

Nick played at my party May 10th 2019, I had met Nick at Beckenham rec and knew he carried out the David Bowie walking tours. We saw him play at the Star and Garter in Bromley, as Bowie is my main man Nicks music was right up my street, although he does play other covers and his own music is very good. Nicks performance at my party was absolutely fantastic and everyone enjoyed it . My friends are still talking about how good he was and my family are definitely going to stay in touch with him and ask him to play st future events for us. I can highly recommend Nick to play at your events plus he is a very nice accommodating bloke with plenty of interesting chat. Thank you Nick for making my evening!!!

Nick was absolutely brilliant. Exactly as expected from his profile and the samples provided on the website. We picked out our favourite songs from his cover repertoire and he performed them all perfectly, capturing the essence of each song with vocals and excellent guitar playing.

Nick was great. Absolutely loved his set list. Highly recommended!!

Gaynor Hart (Wedding) 26 Jul 2018
10/10

Nick is the very best to have at your party. He comes with an 'aura' that sets the scene. With just a quick email he adapts and is flexible to your needs and changes of timetable - which, by the way he answers each and every time. Even though we'd never actually met he made me feel reassured and confident for the big day.

The best bit however, is when he sets-up (thoughtfully and without drama) and..... begins to play for your guests....they all turn from what they are doing..and smile, then they dance, then they sing at the top of their voices!!! without a care!!!...That's how it happened! and this was in the middle of the afternoon! He had a smile and a song to please everyone. A true professional that felt like a friend, he made the day great and we are all so grateful to him.

Until next time, I send my many, many and even more thanks.
Gaynor

Sam Amos (Military Mess Function) 11 Dec 2017
10/10

This is the second event that Nick has played for us and he never fails to impress us. His attitude is always positive and was happy to adjust his set to fit in with the 70's theme of the party, one which he is perfectly suited.
His song selection was fantastic and his vocal ability meant he nailed every song. The guests loved him and were all singing along and dancing well before the disco kicked off!
A brilliant entertainer and one we shall most certainly be booking again, great night!

Reply from Nick Stephenson (singer/guitarist)
Thanks so much for your amazing review Sam! It was my absolute pleasure to play for you again, I had a great time and I'm glad everyone else did, hopefully see you again very soon! All the best Nick

Amazing voice and such a nice guy. Would love to book him again sometime.

Kate Snowdon (Official blogger of Folkstock Festival) 25 Feb 2016
10/10

The energy and flawless musical chemistry that came from the stage for the entirety of the set moved me!

Steve Townsend (Covers acts Def Shepherd and Bad Bones) 25 Feb 2016
10/10

This was the first time we'd got to listen to a whole evening of Nick for ages and it was well, well worth the effort! Nick has put together a vast catalogue of covers (some of which most people would never dream of attempting without a full band!) and a very impressive selection of his own numbers into a set that is, quite simply, stunning. Absolute highlight for me; Jackie Wilson's 'Higher and Higher' - the best example of Nick's phenomenal vocal range!

Denise Parsons (Live Music Project (Trestle Arts Base)) 25 Feb 2016
10/10

Nick's professionalism won through with an enthusiastic and energetic performance. Appreciative clapping rippled through to the far reaches of the venue! A superb unaccompanied version of David Bowie's "Life on Mars", however, is what made EVERYONE sit up and take notice. Never missing a beat and with vocals pure, velvet, clear and heartfelt, Nick's cover of this song was simply stunning and from here on in, the entire room really got behind his performance. Nick's tremendous talent had the audience completely won over!

Mac MacLaren, (Lemonrock Editor) (Lemonrock) 25 Feb 2016
10/10

In these days of 'more is better' it is a treat to hear how much emotion can come from one man and a guitar. When you think 'acoustic', you'd be forgiven of thinking of calming streams and softly spoken words about the olden days, but Nick pours out passion like it was a free drug, and my God, we certainly need this one.

Kathryn Palmer 24 Feb 2016

A truly professional, breathtaking and spine-tingling performance. Nick was amazing at our wedding celebrations.

Rachael Meenan 24 Feb 2016

Nick sang at our sons Christening in October 2014 - he gave an outstanding performance and made the party one to remember! He was really friendly and sociable and even helped take a group photo! I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Nick as he really made our party!

Roger King 24 Feb 2016

As someone who has spent a lifetime promoting music, Nick was the obvious choice for our wedding celebrations... Quality, with great original songs and covers.
