"Olly and the band played for us at our wedding - we hired the full 6 piece band. They played fantastically and brought an incredible energy to the evening. It was exactly what we wanted, and many of the guests commented on how great they were! Olly was a pleasure to deal with, and organising the evening was very easy. We're very grateful, and hopefully will have an excuse for them to play for us again in the future!"

"Booked the BackBeats for my husbands 70th birthday party, what a great night, the music was enjoyed by everyone, young and the not so young, very friendly, guests asking where I found this group, so can see them booking for their own celebrations in the future. Thanks very much to Martyn and the band for making it such a special night."

"We used Last Minute Musicians for my husband’s birthday party and I cannot recommend them enough. We chose soul debonair (Noel) who was absolutely fantastic. He went above and beyond the whole evening. He is a delight to have around at your party. He compared DJ’d and sang a fabulous array of soul which really made for a great party atmosphere. His voice is sensational. If you have one entertainer for a party in your life ... choose soul debonair. Last Minute musicians were excellent professional and quick to respond to any questions we had. Thank you all so much"

"Dear Jess, Thank you on behalf of the whole Unwin Family for everything you did to make Olivia’s 21st Birthday Party a success. We have had so many compliments about the music and the band. You managed to get 3 generations up and dancing, all loving it. Thank you for lending us your mic for speeches, for David & Alice’s singing and for Grace and for your patience in helping us to get everything working smoothly. We hope you had fun playing The Emirates Stadium- it was certainly the most fun I’ve had there this season! Wishing you and the band great success. Best wishes, Diana "

"Ben, thank you so much for playing such fabulous music for us at our end of term staff party. We gave you the briefest description of what we wanted and you certainly delivered. Everyone enjoyed themselves those who love to dance and others who live to listen and watch. The range of songs were perfect for a mixed age group. You were so good that only half way through your first set I was told to re-book the band for our Christmas party. Thank you again, we will definitely see you all again! "

"These guys were fantastic for my event. They were prompt, flexible, friendly and they had everyone jiving and grooving. Would thoroughly recommend them and hope to use them again for events in the future!"

"One of the best bands we have ever hired! The music was fantastic, the chat with the crowd was great. Highlight of our event. Since the day all I've heard about is how much people loved the band (or how gutted they were if they missed them!). Will definitely book again for future events. Thank you all so much. "

"Absolutely brilliant!!!! Performance, music, appearance, volume, setting up, stage presence, getting people up to dance … all fantastic. Really great band and made our club’s 75th anniversary ball a night to remember and talk about for years to come. Appealed to all the age groups. ALL guest comments say how great they were. Many thanks for a wonderful evening."

"I shared my retirement party with Alison and agree with all of her positive comments. One friend said "I had a fantastic time and even managed with my two left feet to join in!" It was exactly what I wanted, an evening full of fun with everybody mingling and joining in together. I would highly recommend 'Blue Jewel' if you want a lively and energetic night. Anna (Paignton)"

"This band are amazing! We enquired at relatively short notice due to changes with Covid restrictions, and they had a cancellation on our date - luckily for us!  The whole arranging and booking process was seamless!  On the day we had the vision that the band would come into the venue playing to surprise our guests and they were more than happy to accomodate! It worked perfectly! Guests who were spread out across the venue all came to join us when they heard the band playing and followed them into the marquee. It was exactly as we'd hoped.  The dance floor reflected how they were too! The set list was great with everyone knowing all the songs and the performance itself flawless! So many guests have commented on how great you all were! Thank you! "

"We had the pleasure of “the Kings of Motown” play at our wedding last weekend. They were amazing with a very polished act both with their singing and dancing. Both we and our guests had a fabulous time and sang and danced the night away with the guys. We would recommend them and would once again like to thank them for a wonderful evening."

"These guys were excellent. They travelled quite some distance to play at my husband's birthday party and were extremely well received by all of our guests. I would recommend them highly to anyone considering a steel band."
