Reviews of Simon Williams Singer/guitarist Wokingham

Thank you for a great afternoon we all loved it 😊

Simon arrived promptly and performed a perfect mix of songs from his varied song list - everyone enjoyed the music and it helped to make the party a success . Would definitely book Simon again.

I can’t praise Simon enough for the amazing performance, it was stressful organising a surprise party so I really appreciated Simon’s communication leading up to the event, and when he arrived he was a massive help by just getting on with setting up and was so personable and friendly, it felt like we had all known him for years! After the party we received so many messages saying how brilliant the performance was and how great the songs were. We really appreciated the fact that Simon sent over a customised list of songs he could perform based on our dad’s favourite genre of music and bands. Thank you Simon, we’ll definitely recommend you to our friends and family! :)

Much, much thanks Simon for a lovely evening yesterday - the weather, food, company and your entertainment were just the perfect ingredients for a wonderful garden party! Everyone enjoyed your singing and the choices of songs...thank you for indulging us with a few requests. Will keep your number for next time! Eda and Richard, Hertfordshire.

Thanks so much for playing at my husbands birthday party, everyone commented on how much they enjoyed the choice of music and how good you were. it really made the meal special.

Simon played on our wedding day and was excellent from the first dance to the last song, even when time ran out, Simon played at least another 4/5 songs on request. Worth every penny!

Hi Simon, A great job, thank you. Everyone really enjoyed your music.

Simon performed fabulous for us New Years Eve 2016 and was very good at entertaining our customers and encouraging them to join in. A very enjoyable and successful night. Look forward to seeing you again soon. Thank you Simon

I just wanted to thank you so much for your fantastic playing at my 30th Birthday Party. I was delighted with the evening. Although I had not chosen the songs, I loved the selection and thought your rendition of them all was spot on.

Many people commented on how fantastic you were, and on what a lovely atmosphere the evening had. I would be delighted for you to quote me in your testimonials, and would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for entertainment. I genuinely would recommend you over and over again and I can’t thank you enough.

Best wishes,
Falon

Just want to say a huge thank you for last night. You have a wonderful voice and everyone commented on just how lovely it was having you play for us around the bonfire. Thanks so much for staying on, our friends still raving about the music by the lake. We had a DJ and disco booked until a week ago and it would have been so wrong. You were perfect and made the night memorable. Thank you again! Hopefully you can play for us again. I'll tell lots of friends.

We booked Simon for a two hour slot for our daughters naming ceremony. It was a small gathering in a local venue. Simon was amazing! Great vocals,great play list and would certainly book him again for any future events. Thank you Simon for making our day extra special. Your voice and talent will take you far. Best wishes.

We could not have asked for a performer, Simon was excellent and our guests loved him. Great set list and flexible when we asked him to change a few songs. Easy to contact and arrive on time. Thanks Simon hope to see you again soon.

Simon came to our outdoor pool event and our members loved the music he provided for us. Simon was on time prompt and professional! We would recommend Simon for all events and would definitely like to use him again!

We booked Simon to play at our reception venue. He was incredibly professional throughout and very friendly, offering his advice and support, helping us to select the perfect set to suit the different age groups attending. Everyone commented on how fabulous he was and I would most definitely agree! We would highly recommend Simon.. Book him - you won't be disappointed.

I am so glad I found Simon and booked him! We had Simon play at my husbands 40th party, he was on time, smart, friendly and just a fabulous guitarist and singer! Played for longer then an hour what I paid him for! Played super songs! Would recommend to everyone and of course will book him for all other party we have! Thank you Simon! Superstar x

Simon. Performed at a small do to celebrate my husbands transplant anniversary party it was a great excuse to show our appreciation to our friends and family and Simon both complimented and completed a wonderful afternoon. Great music great guy recommend him 100%! Thank you.

What a pleasure it was to have Simon perform at my retirement party, he arrived on time, knew what numbers the guests would enjoy, nothing was to much trouble for this very pleasant guy, brilliant guitarist and great singer, until the next time all the best mate.

Simon did a set for us at my fathers 60th bday party at our house. He was brilliant and it really bought the party to life. He had liaised with me prior to the day on song choices to ensure I was happy with the set, arrived on time, and gave a great performance. I have had many messages from guests saying how much they enjoyed his set. Thank you Simon!

Simon did two sets at our son's christening party and was brilliant. Arrived on time, able to do all the songs/artists we requsted and very much to the standard we would want. We wouldn't hesitate to use Simon again - Thanks for making it a great day Simon!

Simon did our wedding for us and all we can say is what an absolute star! A really talented guy and everyone loved the music! He had a great partner with him who sang beautifully! Would recommend Simon to anyone he is a great, professional and a lovely guy! Thank you for making our wedding reception even better :-).

Simon played the Reading Fringe Festival and opened the the launch party for us. He is an absolutely brilliant musician, incredibly adaptable and a true professional. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Simon to anyone who asked!

Simon played and sang at our private garden Party, brilliant. Played a good mixture, lots of favourites. Arrived on time, was friendly to all our guests and made the day so much better. Will have no hesitation in inviting him back. Have also recommended him to a few people.

Live singer was brilliant last night, good night at the anchor.

Thank you for attending it was great to have you and we had fantastic feedback!

I hired Simon for my 50th Birthday party last Saturday. He did a brilliant job and started the evening with some great acoustic background music and then moved more up tempo. By the end of the evening we were up dancing and even joining in at the mike! Simon handled it all in his stride - very professional, relaxed but most of all talented & tuneful able to handle classics and contemporary tracks with ease. Thank you Simon I'd definitely recommend you! Claire

We had a fantastic day on Saturday and thought your music was great. Lots of people commented afterwards about the music. Some really good song choices.

Thank you for playing.

What a great, talented guy. I hired Simon for my 28th garden party only last Saturday and we were not disappointed. Having asked what genre/ artists/ songs I liked- Simon created a bespoke setlist perfect for the occasion- including happy birthday. Punctual and efficiant - set up was a breeze allowing us to carry on partying which made the surprise all the better- all that was required was power for the amp. I had booked him for the hour but he generously played an extra 20 minutes for free and next time I would book him for longer if not the whole night. A number of my friends took his details- with one even enquiring about Simon playing at his wedding. At 90 pounds an hour INCLUDING all travel costs- Simon really is a steal- I even told him he should pay more (although not for my future bookings of course). Simon- see you at my 30th if not before!

We had heard from many local people about Simon Williams, we were looking for an act the could bridge the gap across a multitude of ages and play music that everyone would appreciate. Simon did not disappoint, when we asked would he like to headline at our festival, he not only said yes, but as it was for the Royal British Legion he would assist in the entire music show, he choreographed, set up and ran the music productions through 6 acts for 3 hours. He headlined and wowed the crowds with his acoustic sounds. He is a great family man and we would recommend him without hesitation. Thank you once again and congratulations on your album.

This musician is fantastic! high level of guitar work,that you sometimes don't realize when he plays live/solo,but he can also play amazing lead guitar.excellent vocals and confidence,and his original material is equal to any of the covers he plays,lyrically sincere and eloquent.a solid body of original material with a continuity and unfaltering high standard.with his recent increased exposure through a deal with a label to distribute his debut record digitally,look for this guy to continue to grow in presence,and with a second record hinted at.deffinately a musician you should look to book for your events.

Simon is an awesome acoustic musician with a great collection of songs.. He is professional and I always like to sing along with his music! He plays acoustic guitar and sings and I have seen him play in pubs and festivals. He is very popular and always goes down well.

Simon Williams is one of the very best solo singer/guitarists in the area. He sometimes describes his style as "Acoustic Rock" but he always plays melodic sounds. Perfect for pubs, parties, weddings restaurants he will make any music night go with a swing - or even perfect for relaxing background music. With over twenty years of experience Simon guarantees a standard that few can match and, with a very long list of songs in his repetoire, he can cater for all tastes. His personal favourite artists include: Counting Crows, Jackson Browne, The Eagles, Ryan Adams, Damien Rice, David Gray, Stephen Fretwell, Tom Mcrae, Spin Doctors.
Based in Wokingham, Berkshire, Simon is happy to travel for gigs.

Perfect wedding singer, had a lovely voice and was totally professional would highly recommend.
