"Elliot arrived promptly and played for one hour at our drinks reception. We gave him a list of all our favourite songs and tunes, which he played with great style, fluently moving from one melody to the next. He was also willing to accompany a hesitant singer, and then all of our party sang a song for a grand finale! We raised the roof! His willingness to accede to all our requests made it a great addition to our enjoyment of the evening! I know Elliot is also a versatile jazz artist. If the occasion came round again we would be more than happy to engage Elliot."

"I would just like to say how marvellous Alan was as the guitarist at our daughters wedding His playing was excellent. He played a wide selection of tunes for varying parts of the day. He even learned new tunes for us. All the guests commented on how wonderful he was. He was friendly, polite and just blended in seamlessly to what was going on, adding that extra sparkle for us. We would thoroughly recommend Alan for any event. He was just perfect for our wedding and we thank him enormously."

"It is difficult to capture just how fabulous Lisa was before as well as on the day. She is such a lovely, fun and friendly woman. We really enjoyed working with her in planning the day and her singing down the phone to us as she explored various song suggestions will be a fond memory for us both... leaving us very excited for the day itself. We both love music, as do our families and put a lot of effort to line up some fantastic musical acts in addition to Lisa, including a 6 piece band and a solo guitarist we flew in from abroad. We also had a number of first class entertainers and performers....however despite this, the number one comment we had from every guest during the day and since has been the dramatic and hugely positive impression Lisa had on everyone. We almost felt bad our guests were giving her so much attention and trying to book her for their own events, including a lot of people who had already booked their musicians and were now having second thoughts!! We wanted the wow factor and Lisa certainly provides that. We can’t think of anyone we’ve ever seen musically who is so versatile and yet consistently high quality, indeed... top class. From classical church performances (she is very knowledgable and comfortable in working with you and your ceremony) ... she also learnt a particular piece for us that we’ve never heard covered and yet she delivered it as if it was her favourite song while also very much making it her own. Switching to a top class contemporary set during the drinks reception took everyone by surprise....and her true personality really came out when she switched into a medley of her own hip hop / original numbers blended with a traditional Irish music session, a sing off and an Irish dance combo. There is little to add to what others more qualified have already said in terms of her pure and incredible voice. Beyond this... to give you a sense of her capability... she was able to jam with another musician she only met on the day... to pick up, tune and play a new instrument (family heirloom banjo) as a special request.... to captivate 150 guests of all age ranges and from across the globe, and was able to keep our guests enthralled and enchanted with her for over 6 hours. We’ve met someone who we will enjoy following and listening to for the rest of our lives and who we will always feel lucky we were able to have share our special day. I suspect we will be going to see her gig and perform again very soon (if our guests don’t beat us to it first!). "

"Hi Andrew, thank you so much for attending Moms funeral. You play so beautifully, everyone was very touched and impressed. The way you faded the music out at the end was particularly special. You are also very professional and a pleasure to communicate with. I would highly recommend you to anyone who wants to make an event special. "

"From our first contact with him, Tom was polite and professional. Booking him was an easy process and arrangements made, with a few special requests, without any problems. On our wedding day, Tom arrived well ahead of time, set up his piano without any problems and played throughout our wedding breakfast as requested. He played everything we asked for, plus many other pieces - the style of music being totally in keeping with the occasion. Our guests loved listening to him, one table bonded by playing a game of guessing the tune and he made our wedding even more special by being there. Tom and his piano would be a great addition to any special occasion. Tom plays a great variety of musical styles and we thoroughly recommend him."

"You can have just a piper ..or you can have Spud, someone that all your guests will remember - he is the best! He is friendly, professional, very funny & of course extremely talented at playing the pipes! We remember him for not only his amazing pipe playing but also for chatting to our guests, having a laugh with us and of course for his fantastic toast!! Rubber bumpers!! (Private joke - he did not mention rubber bumpers) Would recommend anyone to get in touch with Spud when needing a piper for any occasion. "

"I would highly recommend both your booking service and Elliot Rooney. Booking was easy and professionally managed. Elliot delighted our guests, I had asked for him to gauge the audience and he find just that, all our guests commented how much they had enjoyed his mystic during the event and how lovely a tone Elliot had when he sang. Really pleased, thank you."

"We had the very great pleasure of Bianca’s company in the Art Gallery for two lovely days, this was a great success as Bianca enchanted and entertained all who passed through the door with her captivating harp playing and most wonderful singing. Hearts and souls were lifted as indeed were sales. "
