"I was looking on last minute musicians to book a string quartet for my wedding. They got in touch quickly and Kirsten was extremely helpful in sorting everything out. They have pages of songs, from classical to movie themes, choosing from the list was the hard part, because I loved so many songs. But they were constantly in touch making sure I chose the right songs. At the wedding they made my day extra special. All the guests were floored with their music. They were enthusiastic and really looked like they were having a great time! I can’t thank them enough and wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book them. "

"SJC played as a quartet at a private event to celebrate my birthday. They were very professional and courteous. They set up in good time before the event and were very accommodating for my specific needs."

"Absolutely outstanding! If you're looking for a band, regardless of what occasion, look no further than Acoustic Experiment. They made our open day fantastic, they were so professional, sounded amazing and were so lovely. Would highly recommend, and wouldn't hesitate to book again. I can't thank you enough."

"We were privileged to have North East Serenade for the first part of our son's wedding. This helped create a great atmosphere pre and post ceremony. They have an extensive repertoire from which to choose and will even arrange requests as long as they are given adequate notice. We are very pleased that they were able to attend and would not hesitate to recommend them."

"Our guests LOVED them and so did we. They created an atmosphere that we will never forget and the songs they played kept everyone dancing all night. The weather was good so they were more than happy to play outside so that people could dance. We originally met at a local Session gig so booking them for our wedding was a no-brainer, but we are so glad we did. They were very accommodating when we had to postpone our 2020 wedding. We can’t wait to see them perform again when we can! Thank you so much guys!"

"Bessie’s life in blues brought back to life. Some performers deserve to be known by more than their work. Bessie Smith won fame as Empress of the Blues in the 1020’s, but there was more to her life than money and fame. She died in 1937, but 80 years on a good sized crowd were held rapt at the Thunderbolt as Dave Merrick narrated her life story, from a ragged upbringing in the American South, with the help of original recordings. Bessie shot to fame because her unique vocal style could cut through the limitations of 1920s recording technology. But it was the live performances the Totterdown audience were waiting for, and Natalie Davis on vocals, with Dave on guitar and Brenan Whitmore on saxophone did not disappoint. Renditions of I Need A Little Sugar in my Bowl, and ‘Taint Nobodies Business If I Do made the magic of Bessie shine, from the slow paced blues of the 1920s to the syncopated swing of the 1930. . the show had the audience rapt. - Paul Breeden, South Bristol Voice (May 01, 2017)"

"We were blown away by Victoria's performance with her band! They were incredibly professional, very easy to work with, and they brought the house down with their fantastic renditions of such well-loved songs. We can't wait to book her again!"
