Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"Phil is a fantastic Saxophonist, who will light up any dance floor! He has a musical ear, wonderfully fun playing style and is a must for any wedding, party or event. As a percussionist I have worked with Phil many times and would recommend him wholeheartedly!"

"Robbie was recruited as an undercover agent – and he absolutely nailed the assignment! My now-husband (still feels surreal saying that!) and I knew from the moment we got engaged that we wanted a small, intimate ceremony surrounded by just our closest family. With such a small guest list, I was a bit nervous that having different suppliers involved might make things feel staged and take away from the personal atmosphere – but I couldn’t have been more wrong. We had already booked a live singer for the ceremony and drinks reception, and since Robin is a huge classical music fan, most of the songs were naturally chosen by me. I really wanted to incorporate his love of music into our special day, and that’s when I reached out to Robbie. Not only did Robbie put together a playlist based on my husband’s favourite songs and artists – he even went out of his way to learn two of his absolute favourites. Robbie performed during our wedding breakfast (as a complete surprise for the groom!) and coordinated setting up in secret perfectly. Everyone commented on how incredible the music was – they were truly blown away. We honestly can’t recommend Robbie highly enough – thank you for helping to make our day absolutely perfect!"

Hi Kelly - it was a lot of fun being an undercover piano agent for you! I was so pleased we managed to keep it a surprise right until the time you both entered the room for the wedding breakfast. Playing for a more intimate setting was very enjoyable, I really felt part of the day. Thank you so much for asking me to play for you, and congratulations again!

"I would just like to say that Embassy Band were wonderful. It’s really hard to play to a room full of 11 year old girls but they were warm and engaging and so lovely to all of the girls. Huge respect to the Embassy Band and an enormous thank you. You guys are magnificent. Victoria and David Elfick, Daughters Prom at South Lodge in Horsham – 2nd August "

"It was a brilliant night! I had an excellent experience with the Black Velvet Band Ceilidh Trio – they were very responsive and flexible on and before the night. The caller was easy to understand, enthusiastic and the band are very talented musicians. I highly recommend them. "

"I recently made my sister a ladies afternoon tea party at home which Martin played at. First and foremost, when I got in touch with Martin from this website he was so professional and very personable. (I was the typical client, asking a million questions, before he had time to answer). On the day Martin was great. He set up without a fuss and just got on with the job of entertaining 30 glamorous over 50 year olds!! I would highly recommend him for any function as his repertoire is very large. My daughter is getting married in 2014 and I will have no hesitation in booking Martin again."

"Thank you very much for entertaining us so well at my wife’s birthday tea at Lysses House last Saturday. A number of my guests remarked that they enjoyed your playing which was not so loud as to prevent conversation but loud enough to be heard. Well done. "

"Christa’s communication from the moment of booking was spot on. She listened to the style of music that I had asked for and sent a snippet of the aisle song I had requested. On the day it was just perfect. She played a lovely selection of songs and is very talented. Very grateful to have had her as part of our special day. Thank you"

"Wendy was superb from the first communication. Very efficient and on the day turned up an hour or so before start time to prepare. Wendy is a lovely person but fantastic Sax Player too, all our guests commented on how great she was and how lovely it was to arrive with Wendy playing in the background. Would definitely book her again and would thoroughly recommend her to anyone wanting some lovely background music. Great Job Wendy. Thanks Robbie and Caroline "
