"Banish Misfortune were an absolutely fabulous band that had our customers dancing around the garden from start to finish during our St Patrick’s Day celebrations. They were a pleasure to work with and we would love to have them back!"

"Hi Ben, Thank you so much for those clips and your kind words. You were absolutely fantastic, exactly what we wanted and more. Your style suited our event perfectly and we have had lots of compliments about you. Thank you also for staying on and making all the iPad stuff work. Can't believe how easily you just set up and played! I know you do it all the time but it impressed me immensely! I'm glad you were looked after food and drink wise, I did reiterate to one of the staff that you guys must have everything that's on offer! Thank you so much again, we were so happy with how good you guys were. Best wishes, Anna and Tom "

"If you're looking for fantastic entertainment, look no further. Awesome band, no stress, fabulous musicians and great music choices! There is so much choice that it's hard to know which type of entertainment to book, I'd definitely recommend The Koniger String Quartet. Thanks for making our birthday celebration so special."

"'Swing Gitan UK joined the Nottingham Jazz Orchestra on the bill of the Christmas Jazz Fest last weekend. Having seen Swing Gitan a number of times, I have always been massively impressed with the musical and technical ability of all members of the band. Their music would sound at home on the streets or riverbank walkways of Paris, but we were lucky enough for them to join us for a unique lineup of bands. Within just a few bars of their first number, (insert what you played first here, I can't remember, sorry lol), it is clear to all that Elliott Lewis and Wayne Jefferies, who take the positions as guitarists within the band, are masters of their instruments and faithfully re-create the music of Django Reinhardt, but adding their own style to numbers such as Minor Swing, Blue Bossa, and Undecided. Joined by bassist Rob Coates and James Tolhurst completing the lineup, their enthusiasm is infectious and the music always driving. If you ever get the chance to catch these guys doing a set, you will not be disappointed!' "

"Hi Ben, Just a quick note to say thanks so much for Saturday. Everyone on the day and since have said how great you were and nice to have live music playing while we were drinking and eating. Thanks for playing an encore, I know you had another gig to get too so it was much appreciated. Also for letting us use your mic. We had the best day and you being there and playing your music really made it a day to remember. We'd definitely recommend you to any of our friends and family getting married or having a party. Hopefully we'll get to see you play again. All the best Simon & Kay"

"It's No' Reel were absolutely fantastic. The music was sensational and got the whole party on the dance floor. They completely made our wedding and we can't thank them enough. They were such a pleasure to deal with - they gave great advice and were so flexible and helpful throughout the planning process."

"We were very pleased that we hired Rory. We were particularly impressed with communication before the day and it was great to speak to him. He was very friendly, approachable and accommodating. On the day, his performance was soulful and classy and he very closely followed our song preferences. We would thoroughly recommend Rory."

Dear Alex & Emma, I hope you enjoyed your weekend. Thank you for the testimonial, which is perfect and much appreciated. I have passed on your kind comments to Rory. No problem re: meeting Rory on the day. I understand it is tricky to do everything on your wedding day. I’m delighted to hear that the engagement went successfully. I will pass on your kind feedback to our agent. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you once again for working with us, and I look forward to hearing from you again in the future. Thanks_Jo
