"Your playing was one of the highlights of our wedding day, especially for our Irish and Scottish families! So many guests commented on what a lovely unique touch it was having him playing outside the church and piping me down the aisle. Highly recommended!"

"We booked Tamilla for our wedding, which was pushed back 3 times due to the pandemic. Tamilla was soo patient with our date amendments. When we finally met Tamilla on our wedding day, we were blown away by her art and performance. I would highly recommend her, an amazing talent. Thank you from the Jewells. "

Well done you were great and we could not have asked for a better band and caller!!! We do hope that we will be able to use you in the future and many of our guests have asked for your details."

"The band were fantastic. There was a really great atmosphere, and the singers and musical talent were brilliant. It made me want to go out and see more live music up close. A fun and lively upbeat band that played music that got everyone on their feet, I would thoroughly recommend them for any party or event. I thought the band were tight, balanced and very professional. Great sound and clearly talented. Groove-alicious!!"

"Steve was friendly and provided great relaxed atmosphere in our barn venue. He was flexible with timings (as we were slightly late to start!). As he knew our 1st dance song, he learnt a christmas track for us and ended the night with it which was lovely! Many thanks Steve! "

"Rory played at our multi generational 40th wedding anniversary party. He arrived promptly, was very communicative and did a fantastic job playing his sax, covering hits right through from the 50’s to the present day. Our guests loved his music and he made a significant contribution to a successful party and fantastic day. I would highly recommend. I am a very satisfied customer. Very many thanks Rory."

Hi Nicky, Wow, I’m absolutely thrilled by your kind words—thank you so much! It was truly a pleasure to be part of your special day and contribute to such a memorable celebration. Your guests were fantastic, and it was wonderful to see everyone enjoying the music. I’m especially grateful for the testimonial and your generosity with the tip—it means a lot to me. I’ll be sure to share your lovely feedback with Sarah-Jane and add it to my profile. Please don’t hesitate to give Sarah-Jane a shout if you ever need music for another event or if any of your friends are looking for a saxophonist. I’d be delighted to work with you again in the future. Thanks again, Nicky, and all the best to you and your family. 😊 Cheers, Rory

"As a wedding venue we get to listen to a huge range of bands with prices varying from £500-£5,000. Sadly price has nothing to do -or so it seems- with professionalism, personality and ability! Jolly Polly and the Pirates is very much at the bottom end of this price spectrum, but very, very much at the top of the performance ratings! To sum them up? They are musicians with really nice personalities who have great technical ability and understanding of sound, mixing and the audience. On bass guitar and vocals is Polly, who is probably one of the most energetic singers we have come across, with great variations, presence and depth. On lead guitar (and keys) Jon has great technical skills and enthusiasm for his role in the band, and on drums (and occasionally keys at the same time!!) a drummer who actually loves his drums - at last someone who realises drums are an instrument, not an object to take out your aggression on, perhaps that is down to his experience and talent. Individually they are great - as a band they are awesome! - Certainly at the top of our list and always hoped for! Alpheton Hall Barns - Historic Suffolk Wedding Venue "
