"Acoustic Connection were fabulous- they arrived early, performed fabulously and I couldn’t have asked for anything more. They also lent us their microphone for speeches which was much appreciated (and an impromptu song)."

"Ria were exactly what I wanted for my 60th birthday Cuban themed party. A very professional band that played wonderful laid back latin music that was fun to dance to as the evening went on. So pleased that we booked them as it really made the event, and all my guests loved then."

"Just dropping by to say thanks a million for playing at our wedding at the gorgeous Trevenna Barns in Cornwall on the 8th July. The acoustic hour with Clare + Ollie during our wedding reception was incredible ? ????‍?? and the entire evening band were also so, SO brilliant ?? Honestly I just wish you could’ve sang for us forever. You guys are everything. I hope our paths cross again sometime in the future."

"The service received from last minute musicians was perfect. Quick to respond to any emails and queries and were always professional and courteous. The musician we went with, Gary Trotman - Steelasophical, was the icing on the cake for our wedding day and really did make the day even better than I could ever have imagined. Thank you."

"Thank you so much for your beautiful music- it was everything I dreamed of and really added to the atmosphere and feel of the day. Sha's reaction to you playing Blue Monday was great; he recognised it instantly!"

"I can’t thank the band enough. They made the party that much more special. They even created a bespoke song which was from our wedding two years ago "all of me", which was delivered perfectly! Great evening and would highly recommend!"

Hi Sarah, Many thanks for the kind words and the review - we very much enjoyed playing for you all so it's great to hear that you all had a special time. Really pleased you liked the rendition of "All Of Me" which we know had a special meaning for you - we like to go the extra mile :-) Many thanks Martin & Stuart

"Sarah played the perfect sets at our wedding during the drinks reception and sit down meal, her beautiful music enhanced our special day and it was such a joy to have her there. She created the most gorgeous atmosphere throughout the day and I’ll definitely book her again!"

"What a treat it was last night to have you playing for us. Your choice of music was delightful and, of course, so beautifully played. I hope you could feel the appreciation from our guests. The dancing went very well considering the large numbers of non-members attending; what they lacked in expertise, they more than made up for in enthusiasm. We hope that you too enjoyed your evening; we certainly did. Thank you so much for your considerable contribution to the success of our evening (and the piper said you were great company!)."

"Nacho and Luis were incredible - the energy and sound they brought to the party was just fantastic - everyone was on their feet dancing from the first note to the applause at the end. Great selection so songs covering different generations, for everyone to get involved in and sing along. Great comms throughout the booking process as well. They truly made my Dads 70th birthday party special and cant recommend them enough. Thank you so much! "

"We’ve just been to a friend's wedding where Rhys played. Did music for the ceremony, wedding breakfast and music and DJ into the evening. He is clearly an incredibly talented musician with an amazing voice. All the songs he played were brilliant but not just simple covers, but rather his own individual versions of original songs that sounded amazing. Have his details for possible future use and if a family or other gathering that needs music comes up he will be first on the list. Highly recommended. "

"Ma Bessie and the Pigfoot Band, so as you might imagine, we stayed rooted in the 20’s and 30’s, but with a more rounded, sophisticated feel. No one does Bessie Smith better that Ma Bessie, and we are lucky to have her as a local artist here in Reading. As her Pigfoot duo finished getting ready for the set, Ms Bessie launched into an unaccompanied ‘Life Is Too Short’ taken from her album of the same name. As soon as she takes to the stage she creates an immediate connection with her audience. They are all her friends, and she chats her way through the set. With timeless classics such as ‘Hot Time In The Old Town Tonight’ and ‘Do Your Duty’, Bessie Smith featured highly in the set. Songs like ‘Downhearted Blues’ and ‘Trouble Trouble’ kept the mood intact, whilst songs like ‘Sugar In My Bowl’ and ‘Whip It To A Jelly’ highlighted the risqué fun elements of the music of the era. Matt Foster provides the perfect solid guitar rhythm and bass line support for the smooth yet gutsy vocal, and with Chuck Lloyd adding his superb saxophone it was another fine performance. "
