"Matt played for mine and my husband’s wedding in August 2025 and we cannot recommend him enough. Not only is his playing absolutely beautiful but he was extremely approachable to our guests and he fitted so well into our day. He is also fantastic at communicating and spent so much time with us before the event to plan every detail and ensure he captured exactly what we wanted - which he did. Matt, thank you for playing for our wedding, you played a huge role in our special day and we are beyond grateful to you. The personalised playlist you created was perfect for our Wedding, flowed seamlessly and helped capture mine and Simon’s love story and the music and songs that are important to us."

"Dan played at our wedding reception on Saturday 6th July 2019. He was Absolutely fantastic. We sent Dan a list of the songs we particularly liked for his play list. We were lucky to have a beautiful sunny day so Dan was able to set up outside where all the guests were enjoying the sun shine. We received so much feed back from our family and friends saying how fabulous he was. Not only has he an amazing voice but is also an absolutely lovely guy. I would highly recommend him without hesitation. "

"A huge thank you to Nigel for the wonderful music you provided for our wedding ceremony at Chicheley Hall in October! As I was booking you as a little surprise for my husband to be, you made the process so easy and everything was kept under wraps perfectly until the day. I've had such wonderful feedback from the guests about the music while they were arriving, and I was over the moon about the little mix of songs you created for the ceremony itself. Thank you so much for being such a key part of this very important event for us."

"Venezuelan soprano Sofia slipped in, in splendidly soulful isolation, in sleepy-slinky Barnes. Sofia’s charm comes from an ability to engage with her audience with vivacity, a slow waving of the arms or a thumbs-up cheekily pepping things up. This was a two-way process, for the audience, although in their own homes, were there via a livestream chat facility, commenting, praising and importantly requesting numbers. What were requested? Jazz standards, show numbers and some current pieces rubbed shoulders with languid classics sung in French or torrid numbers in her native Spanish. The jazz standards were impressively and beautifully sung. Cole Porter’s 1944 classic, Ev’ry Time We Say Goodbye and Meredith Willson’s 1950 show tune ‘Til There Was You, had just the right balance of poignancy and warmth of these post-war nostalgic gentle pieces. The mood changes, but not the sincerity of the singing, with the traditional folk song, The House of the Rising Sun, retaining the blues feel of a song that became the “first folk rock hit”. Then, we were transported to the late sixties with the Aretha Franklin version of I Say a Little Prayer For You. Her skill in Latin American music was epitomised by the famous bolero, written by Mexican songwriter Consuelo Velázquez, Bésame Mucho. Sofia’s soft but passionate treatment of the lyrics harked back to the dreamy sensuality of the 1940 original. I expect many of her fans were responding by blowing her lots of kisses. Nevertheless, it was not in a Spanish song that Sofia excelled, but in French. Of course, it had to be Edith Piaf’s immortalised song to love, La Vie en Rose. Perfectly rendered, both in words and music, and fervent in its performance, she expressed exactly the powered of infatuated love. Great stuff, and good to see today’s vie en rose. In these straightened times, we all need occasionally to see the world through rose-tinted spectacles. "

"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."
