"We had Max play at our Christmas party, he was great at getting everyone up on the dance floor and his playing was very impressive! He was friendly and let people have a go on his drums."

"We spent a great deal of time trying to find the right group to play at our summer wedding, and were so lucky to find Evelyn & the Band. We were spellbound by their demo songs and videos, which they easily outperform in person. Their repertoire is very broad, which makes them perfect for the wide spectrum of tastes at a typical wedding. The band contacted us well in advance to get a feel for the music we wanted, and how they would fit into the programme for the day. After our first chat, they produced a draft playlist, which they were happy to tweak to include a few favourites. They also offered to learn whatever we wanted for our first dance, and gave such a spellbinding performance of it on the night that we had to dance for nearly two minutes on our own before the best man could snap everyone out of it! They brought some fun background tunes to play whilst they weren’t on stage, and were very helpful in explaining what we should provide in the way of power and space for them to perform. They gave a really fabulous performance, getting folks dancing and singing along throughout the evening. We couldn’t have been more delighted with their music, or enjoyed ourselves more. We thoroughly recommend you book them while you can!"

"Robbie was fantastic. He really made our wedding, I often heard people saying the song that was playing and it made my day. I asked him to help me with a voice over to surprise my hubby to be before I walked down the aisle and he did. The soft music in the background was just beautiful. He came outside for the reception drinks then back inside for the wedding breakfast. You definitely need him at your wedding without a doubt. Thank you so much."

"Robert's afternoon saxophone performance at our wedding was simply outstanding! With his incredible musical talent, he effortlessly set the tone for an unforgettable celebration. The lively melodies and infectious beats turned the atmosphere into a joyous party. Moreover, Robert was incredibly easy to work with, making the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. We can't thank him enough for making our special day even more memorable!"

"Lizzy played at our son’s wedding a few days ago and it was absolutely fabulous. Hearing the harp music whilst waiting for the bride and again as the ceremony concluded added a real elegant touch to the day. My son and new wife particularly liked it when Lizzy played their special song as the ceremony was coming to a close. A special mention to the fact that we had to postpone the wedding by a whole year due to Covid restrictions but everything ran smoothly despite that. We would definitely recommend Lizzy to anybody thinking of booking a harpist, worth every single penny. Thank you Lizzy and Encore team."

"Motown Memories and Ione performed at our wedding in June 2022 and they were absolutely fantastic. Ione is a great singer and the band are superb musicians - there were great guitar solos. At the end of the evening and following the wedding, so many of our guests told us that they thought they were a great wedding band, and the dancefloor was full for the whole evening. They responded and reacted to the crowd expertly. The set list was a great selection of genres and decades, enjoyed by 3 generations. Rhona, the band manager, was great to deal with before the wedding - she asked us questions, she shared an example set list, and she arranged for the first dance to be played."

It seems to get everyone in a lovely place for the evening especially Tracy who was overwhelmed with the surprise . I would definitely recommend you to sing again at any function and wish you all the very best for the future ."

"We booked The Confidential for our corporate event following a recommendation and they were amazing – not only the music, which got the party started, but also a couple of sessions of Bandeoke, which was great fun. The addition of a Photo Booth just ticked all of the boxes and our evening was complete – a huge success. A huge thank you to The Confidential!"

"My wife and I first met Clea when she played at a regular spot at a bar I used to work at. Her voice was so strong and beautiful. Every song she sang sounded as though it was sung from her heart. Clea is a huge talent, both vocally and musically (as we found out she is an incredibly talented song writer and guitarist). She was always our first choice to perform at our wedding and we hoped we could persuade her to sing our song for our first dance (“Songbird” by Eva Cassidy). The song was one she had not performed before, but she absolutely blew us away with her rendition. The guest’s at our wedding were constantly telling us how much they were enjoying listening to Clea and my only regret was not booking her for a longer set! She created such a beautiful atmosphere during her performance and this continued to grow right up to her last song and the rest of the night.​My wife and I feel blessed that we managed to get Clea to perform at our wedding and we are sure it would not of been the same without her."

"Dear Michael, We had the BEST day, thank you so much for being a part of it. The ceilidh was amazing. I loved seeing all our family and friends dancing together. There were lots of achey people on Sunday! The bestmen are already keen to recreate the basket dance! Sorry I didn't really get to say hello to you and your band. We will thoroughly recommend you to anyone else. "

"Wow, what can we say. James was incredible from start to finish. His communication was great from the start, honest in his advice on choice of songs and with his obvious experience we trusted him and wow, he blew us away. His performance was phenomenal and he made the evening so much fun! Thank you so much, we would use you again and again! (Sorry if my sister and I deafened you with our singing of unwritten haha)"

"Jon was an amazing addition to our day, it was a pleasure to have him join us and play throughout our wedding breakfast and ceremony. Everybody has been commenting since, about the songs he played and how they suited the wedding so well. We are honestly so happy with how our wedding went and we could not be more grateful for Jon being a part of making it happen. Jon was on-time, efficient, accommodating and incredibly easy to speak with in the lead up to our wedding. Thank you so much Kayleigh & Shane Churcher"
