"We booked James to play at our wedding, and he was amazing. Everybody was full of praise and he was so engaging with our guests. We thought he sounded brilliant on his promo videos but to hear him live was exceptional. It was like having our own private concert with an A-list performer. We couldn’t recommend James highly enough. In the run up to the big day James’ communication and organisation was second to none. Also helped by him being a super nice guy!"

"Bubbling over with raucous choruses and instrumental virtuosity...a stunning acapella and a mighty horn section. It's one hell of a smoking-hot platter."

"We booked the Koniger Quartet for our wedding in June 2017. They were great and were willing to learn two new pieces especially for our ceremony which I thought was exceptional service. They were responsive, reliable and great musicians. I would highly recommend."

"We were absolutely delighted to have booked the MB's to play at our wedding reception. The standard was exceptional and the band had provided an extensive repertoire from which we were able to highlight our favoured songs. The band also had recordings of some numbers on sound cloud so that we could learn a first dance to the exact arrangement that they were to play on the night. It couldn’t have been easier – in the end we chose to charleston to “I want to be like you” which was fun and went down extremely well. I liaised with Chris mainly via email, but chatted on the phone nearer to the day so that arrangements could be finalised, nothing was too much trouble and the band was a real highlight. The keyboard player was booked earlier to play the piano during the meal and their set up was efficient. The band had travelled from Yorkshire to London to play and they might be making the journey down the A1 more frequently as several guests at the wedding have been asking for their contact details, and all thank you letters have commented on their stunning performance, the dance floor was filled all night."

"Sonia and her band were brilliant! They pitched it just right with some lovely old jazz, blues and easy listening standards – great combination of keyboard, double bass and Sonia’s smooth, warm vocals. Will definitely book them again!"

"Thank you Wendy. Your friendliness, professionalism, flexibility and beautiful music made you a wonderful choice for entertainment at my birthday meal. You were totally discreet, and yet the sound of the saxophone filled the restaurant but without overpowering conversation. Just perfect!!!"

"We would highly recommend Trio - we first met them at the wedding fair at the NEC & we couldn’t stop thinking of their beautiful sound and booked for our wedding almost a year later. They did not disappoint - in particular playing a song they didn’t have in their repertoire. Additionally playing a little rendition of “baby shark” for our little boy who was (to say the least) a little upset and poorly. Thank-you so much."

"Well what can I say. It was perfect. The three guys were the perfect start to a 40th birthday party celebration (that ended at 4am!? They were friendly and professional plus excellent musicians pitching the right music at the right time ending the sets with the party on their feet dancing. Would like to thank them for making the day a special one that everyone enjoyed fully. Kindest Regards"
