"Eager to please and delivers! This was Gavin's first gig at The Hightown and, to be fair, a bit of a tricky one. For our St. George's Celebration Night we required an act that could not only please the crowd with an interesting and varied set list, but that could also confidently include some traditional patriotic songs to set the right tone for our themed event. Given Gavin's act is wholly acoustic, this presented something of a challenge, but any fears I had were laid to rest as Mr Clarke delivered his own arrangements of songs like "Land of Hope & Glory" and "There Will Always Be An England" along with an assortment of others that really entered into the flag-waving spirit of things splendidly! Managing to win over the enthusiasm of a crowd more used to a heavy drum beat and driving bass line to get them going is no mean feat and Gavin's skill in putting together and serving up a programme that successfully catered for all our needs, without reproducing songs already done to death, was evidenced by people thoroughly enjoying themselves and taking to the dance floor. It's this ability to deliver that won him two further appreciative bookings with us! With a level of skill in guitar playing that is something to behold, Gavin's excellent vocal performance also deserves high praise, so if you are looking to engage the services of a fine vocalist, a fluent guitarist and a heck of a nice guy with bags of talent, you could do your venue or party a massive service and book Gavin for yourselves.

"I hired Cherry Bomb for my 80th Birthday Bash and they were great. Kept a group of good friends entertained throughout the evening. I will be recommending them to other organisations I belong to."

"Joanne was amazing! She played my mum's favourite song so beautifully it took everyones breath away! I had so many lovely comments from my mum's friends about how well she played my mum's favourite song. It was the perfect final goodbye."

"I have had the privilege of calling Max a friend since he was 11 years old. He always amazed me with his talent as a multi-instrumentalist musician, but he has now developed into a great songwriter and artist. It is a joy to see him perform live."

"I asked Will to play John Legend/All of Me as I proposed to my girlfriend in a restaurant in Soho. Will was very professional, look the part and had the whole restaurant giving him a standing ovation... I would definitely recommend Will as he was reliable, professional and massively talented."

"Five Star Google Review: What can we say about Nigel! Amazing comms with us about our preferences despite only having a 2 hour slot at cocktail hour at our wedding he became nearly everyone’s favourite part of the night. Smiley and welcoming and an amazing pianist! We loved Nigel and highly highly recommend him for your event. Thank you so much for being a part of our special day. Sarah and Chris. "

"Chris played for me with very little notice, which was hugely appreciated. I got to pick the songs I wanted to hear played, from a long list of numbers he is able to perform. Contact was fast and clear over email and text, and the set itself was 100% professional and polished. Thank you!"

"We just wanted to say a huge thank you for playing at our ceremony and drinks reception. As soon as we saw you playing on instagram we knew we had to book and you were actually the very first supplier we booked in! All throughout the lead up you were on hand with any queries and the process was so smooth. On the day the music was absolutey perfect and so many guests commented on how wonderful the piano was. You played all the songs we requested, it was so beautiful hearing them whilst we stood with our friends and family. A memory I will treasure will be standing outside having a private little dance to Romeo & Juliet. We wish we could do it all again, thank you again. "

"The unique sound of Irish harp and banjo accompanying LISA'S stellar voice is a once in a life time experience She Plays the harp in a style all her own; almost as if she were playing finger style guitar. Combining her deep knowledge of Irish traditional music with current pop styling is what attracted me to her as an artist and storyteller in the first place She is the first artist I signed to my new venture abfab artists .com and LISA has already written with several Grammy winning writers producers and artists for the pop market and film and television I'm very much looking forward to working on her upcoming album."

"I found Will last minute for a covers gig at my clients quirky new bar for NYE within hours Will has put together the perfect set list, organised a second performed, and sent over videos and recommendations to put our mind at ease. On the night itself Will came by to set up (and even helped us source a PA!) before running into central London for another gig and making it back on time to rock out with our guests! We couldn't have been more pleased! He's fun, personable, talented and a real crowd pleaser! 10/10 Id hire him again in a heart beat! "
