"Just about recovered from the night now! Yes all went well, the feedback we have received has been fantastic from the guests that came along and from the staff who worked it too. A specific highlight was Paul who we have been requested to bring back another time, apparently many people were keen to book him for private functions too. Many thanks for all your help and support with the event, I look forward to working with you again."

"Big Smoke Brass caught my eye from a cover they don’t even have up anymore and they lived up to literally everything I wanted. Our dinner overran by two hours and true to professionalism they played as long as our venue would allow, launching in as soon as they could - literally every single guest I’ve spoken to since my wedding complimented me on my brilliant choice of band. They even sent us an arrangement of our first dance ahead of time so we could practise to it, and they worked really hard to make our event completely perfect, even tailoring a parade style entrance on the fly! I could not compliment them more. I wish I could get married again so that I can hire them again, but I guess I’ll just have to think grander with my celebrations from here on out to get them back!"

"Hello Anne, Thankyou I had a wonderful time. But it would have been nothing without the string quartet. They played so beautifully, honestly everyone was enthralled. I had to stop them playing as they would have gone over their Time!!!! Only minor problem, the one man band arrived early and started setting up thus allowing very little time for the quartet. But they took it in their stride. Thank You so much Anne for providing us with such a fab night. Who knows we may have another occasion where we can use your quartets wonderful musical talents. Regards and big thanks Gill and family. "

"I have booked Danny at a number of bars and restaurants that I have managed and have also been massively impressed by his quality. So much so that I booked him for our wedding. He was perfect. He performed during our meal with many people stopping to watch. I made a number of song requests which caused no problem for the other talented singer. I would recommended to anyone."

"I can highly recommend Miriam, who I have known for many years. I can vouch for her outstanding musical ability. She is able to adapt to the need of most events, especially funerals and receptions. "

"The booking process was really easy, and LMM were really responsive to my questions. The performer himself (Countryman Sam) was incredible - we were blown away by his talent! He performed two songs we requested and they were perfect, and his song choices for the cocktail hour were great. He was also such a nice guy - cannot recommend him enough! (10 / 10)"

"A fantastic country and western singer Lilac is, with an authentic good old country sound, for everyone to sing along too, line dance with and be country happy. Worth every penny. Don’t hesitate book now."

"These guys were unbelievable for our wedding festival. We had four bands throughout the day with Pop Pickers playing as the 3rd band as we started with an acoustic singer/guitarist and then an Irish band whilst we were having dinner. Pop Pickers kicked the main party of with our first dance, with the song 'Be My Baby' by the Ronettes. They were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. All our guests absolutely loved them and their music. They played 50's,60's and 70's . We initially chose them as we were looking for a band to play our main dance song to and once we started looking at their entire music catalogue, we were really impressed and knew that the mixture of music from the years would be great for our wedding. Really nice guys and very talented and professional. We would highly recommend Pop Pickers. Top class. Thankyou "

"Great set for the Sunday afternoon session at the 2025 East Anglian Beer & Cider Festival. Great sound and some real 'bangers' to keep the crowd entertained. Perfect end to a lovely Sunday session."

"Ma Bessie and her Blues Troupe played for us at our Community Charity fundraiser last weekend. Wow! What a soulful and sexy voice to go with a superb band! The band played in perfect harmony in less than perfect conditions and our crowd were thoroughly entertained. People were blown away with the quality of the performance, and many positive comments were made. Just book them!"

"By far one of the best wedding bands we’ve heard. Versatile, quirky & truly talented. Gorgeous husky tones, country grooves. Good stuff!"

"Trip for Biscuits played at our wedding and I could not recommend them enough. We were looking for a particular style which was hard to find in Bristol but I am so glad we did not give up on our search and came across this band! Lots of guests have commented on how great the band were too and the dance floor was evidence they really added to the day. Thank you!"
