Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"There has always been a good jazz scene in Southampton. At present time it's very exciting due to the strength of the young musicians.One multi - talented player is Lizzy Bennie, she acquits herself to the highest levels with her vocals and sax playing. A real highlight is Lizzy playing Harp and vocalising as a very recent concert for Southampton Mencap proved . Both music and the rapport with the audience were very high indeed. I feel I could book this young lady into any jazz or associated music situation, a great talent for now and a jazzy future!"

"We had the absolute pleasure of hosting Simon the  and it was a day filled with joy, music, and heartwarming memories! As Simon strolled through our home, the enchanting sound of bagpipes filled the air, creating a magical atmosphere that touched the hearts of our residents and staff alike. For many of our residents, this visit was more than just a musical performance; it was a journey down memory lane. The soulful tunes allowed them to reminisce about their Scottish roots, sharing stories of family members and recalling precious moments from visits to the beautiful land of Scotland A huge thank you to Simon for sharing his talent and spreading so much happiness. We look forward to more moments like these that make our home a warm and vibrant community for everyone!"

"We contacted Tim last minute as we had been let down by another performed. He called within an hour and was extremely accommodating, doing our event meant he was doing 2 gigs back to back. Great voice and song choices. A savour! Thank you Tim! Highly recommend."

"Bethan was really friendly and an excellent harpist. She was very professional on the big day and didn’t let the rain get in the way of moving the harp between locations at the venue! Thanks Bethan for helping make our day extra special"

"Jazz Eclipse are fantastic! They created an amazing sound even with a smaller setup. Special mention to Conor, whose vocals were absolutely superb, and to Joe for his gorgeous guitar tone. Highly recommend, they deserve to be very busy indeed!"

"Having seen James and the Giant Beat several times previously we were delighted to have him perform at my husbands 60th Birthday party last Saturday. From my first communications with him he was courteous and helpful and with a huge repertoire of songs to chose from, it was easy to pick hubby’s favourites - plus all the crowd pleasers! On the night James was punctual and engaged early on with the crowd. Before we knew it many guests were up and dancing and in the second set the place was literally rocking. Many guests commented on how much they enjoyed James’s unique and quirky interpretation of songs and how much fun it was trying to guess the song from the intro. I would have no hesitation booking him again, really amazing ? "

"Great gig, thank you so much. I chose well! Your energy was soaked up by us all at my 50th party and culminated in a fantastic feel good finale on the dance floor. ‘One more song’ was the call from my nephew and all of us would have savoured more time, but we ended on a high and that’s all I could ask for. I’ve had great feedback on you, and obviously will see if you are available for any future family events! "

"Jamie played at our wedding on Saturday and was amazing! We couldn’t have asked for more from the moment we booked him everything was just perfect. All our guests said how wonderful he played and that it made the day I know a lot asked for his details and where I found him. I feel so lucky and that it was meant to be hearing him play on Canterbury high street. If you’re looking for music for your event Jamie is the one honestly you will not regret it. Thank you again Jamie just brilliant!!!"

"My daughter and her fiancé first met Zoe at a wedding fayre at the Doubletree Nottingham gateway hotel. They were impressed by the playing and thought that this would make a very different addition to their recent wedding day in September 2017. Zoe was easy to deal with and assisted in the choices of music. On the day Zoe played during the ceremony and then as background music during the reception. This was a great accompaniment, particularly as Zoe played well known tunes and even some requests. Overall, we enjoyed this very much and a number of guests commented that this was an unusual and very welcome addition to the day."

Thank you Chuba, I’m so glad the acoustic guitar duo with myself and Jake brought the atmosphere you were hoping for! It was a joy working with you from start to finish!

"Mike was sensational! We could not have asked for a better piper to play at our wedding. We have heard so many compliments from guests about him and how brilliant he sounded. He really did a fantastic job and we cannot thank him enough. He was able to bring tears to our eyes the second he started piping the bride down the aisle! He truly helped make our day so magical and we really felt transported to the Highlands!! So professional and exactly what we wanted. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!"

"Jonathan recently played at our friend's wedding in Hurley, Berkshire. As we all filed out of the library after the ceremony, Jonathan was there in the drawing room, playing piano for the happy couple. He played all our favourites and many requests as well. We were all impressed by his professional attitude, calm approach and musical ability. Would we recommend him ? Absolutely!"

"Don't hesitate and just book them. We had The Vibe provide music to entertain our guests from church to reception venue and it was outstanding. What would have been a challenge to sheepdog people though the streets of London became a carnival of love and music. Their freedom to roam without amplification is such an asset and their vibes were unmatched. We can't thank them enough. Everyone had the best time. My wife and I especially ❤️"
