Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"I booked the quartet for my wedding. From the outset, they were very professional. They have an extensive repertoire but were also willing to arrange a song for us that was not on their list. On the wedding day, they were amazing and even played outside whilst we had canapés and took pictures. I would highly recommend them; these beautiful young ladies are going to go far."

"Woooo, Shama and the 515 crew, what a fantastic group of musicians and entertainers. Shama and the crew turned our Mehfil night into a storm. Every conversation about the party with our friends has started with comments about Shama and the band. The comments range from ‘…her voice is like an instrument…’, ‘…the band can play, man…’, ‘…I’m converted to Hindi music…’, ‘…the signers got the most amazing voices…’, ‘…these guys are craftsmen…’, ‘…the young guy on the left - so cute..’ and… From the first conversation when I was making enquiries about dates to the day after the event you are dealing with a warm, professional artists that brings clarity to all the big stuff and the fine details. We appreciated a whole bunch of free advice from Shama before the event and the odd email every so often to ensure everything was on track. On the day the best thing we did was relax and leave the music in the hands of the pros – this what they do. They controlled the tempo, the songs and had the guests captivated from the get go. Apart from playing the expected Bollywood and Punjabi tunes that got everyone swaying and dancing and they even squeezed a Bob Marley tune or two. It’s a pleasure to meet and hear folks like this."

"I booked The BV's to perform at The Balmoral Hotel, Edinburgh on 20th May 2017 as part of a programme to present some of the finest acts from Edinbugh and beyond in the iconic setting of Palm Court. Since then I have booked The BV's a number of times and have come to rely on their high standard of performance and their flexible approach particularly in the different musician line ups they can offer for different performances. Their collective professional experience and musicianship I have come to hold in high regard."

"The StereoBeats played at our wedding at Edinburgh City Chambers and were absolutely fantastic! They instantly created a party atmosphere and had our guests on the dance floor throughout! They're all superb musicians and we heard so many glowing comments about their playing. David and crew were also very helpful and communicative in the build-up to the day and provided a large repertoire of songs to choose from. I would recommend to anyone - thanks again!"

"We booked The StereoBeats for our wedding on Saturday 16th July 2022 at Thainstone House Hotel, Inverurie, Aberdeenshire. I have no words other than WOW. From our first dance (which they rehearsed/performed a slow down version of Set You Free at our request, to the ceilidh to the dance set, the dance floor was full all evening. For us, we couldn’t have picked a better band - the StereoBeats are more than just a wedding band, they are performers in their own right! Every single guest commented on how great they were. Thank you from both us! Brian and Nicola."

"We booked Volt for a milestone birthday, and they turned the whole night into something extraordinary. From the very first track, it felt less like a party at home and more like being transported to a world-class club. The DJ’s mixes were flawless, and the singers brought an energy that had everyone completely hooked. What made it even better was how down-to-earth and fun they were—it never felt staged, just natural and unforgettable. Friends are still messaging me about that night, and I know it’ll be remembered for a long time."

"We booked Golden Gospel for our summer wedding and couldn't have been more pleased! As you can imagine, it was hard to make a decision as there are so many groups out there, but after listening to their soundtracks and speaking with them via email - I knew I wanted them to sing at our wedding - and I wasn't disappointed! They were simply amazing. The communication beforehand was so friendly and informative, that I felt immediately at ease and so excited to hear them in person. On the day, they were absolutely fantastic. They had guests entertained (some up dancing) before I arrived, sang an amazing version of my wedding entrance song and then ended the ceremony in such a joyful, uplifting way. We had so many compliments about them, with many guests saying they were their favourite and most memorable part of the day. I cannot recommend enough, they were everything I hoped for and more."

"Highly recommend Kit — he has a fantastic repertoire and is incredibly professional. He arrived with all his own equipment and adapted perfectly to the space. On top of that, it was an absolute pleasure to have him perform at my birthday. He was so kind, went above and beyond, and everyone genuinely enjoyed both his presence and his performance."

Thanks Naaki! It was a bit "cosy" in the space but I was happy to squeeze in and play for your lovely family and friends, who all clearly adore you. You were an excellent hostess and looked after me as well as your guests brilliantly. I'll carry happy memories of your party for a long time!

"Lara is a rare type of individual who possesses extraordinary skills and abilities. We’ve worked on a few projects together - most recently the album project 80’s Symphonic, where I hired her as concertmaster. In my over 50 plus years in the business, you can imagine that I have seen countless individuals in this position. Lara brought such skill and confidence to implementing her duties that the entire string section accepted her as one of the family!"

"Oliviya has the most beauiful voice I've heard, and having her at our wedding made the day even more special. She and Ed performed live for our first dance, and it was an absolutely stunning moment.♥️ After that she rocked the stage, and lifted up the mood of everyone on the dancing floor. Not only she is exceptionally talented with an amazing stage presence, but she is also a true professional in every way. It was a pleasure to work with her from the initial enquiry right through to the end. We can't wait to experience her live again!"

"Jimmy and Eccentric Pony were absolutely fantastic. Us and our guests had a brilliant time, everyone has told us how good they thought the band were. We all danced all night! Both on the lead up to the day and on the day itself Jimmy was incredibly professional and made everything a breeze. Our day was running considerably behind schedule and the band were so flexible and relaxed. I would not hesitate to recommend them."

"We had the pleasure of listening to the talents of Saxophonist Oleg at my daughter's wedding a week ago at Silchester Farm nr. Reading. Prior to the big day he kept in touch and presented a huge repertoire of song choices that were available for us to choose.. Oleg played the newly married couple back down the aisle appropriately to 'signed, sealed, delivered I'm yours' which was a surprise to our guests and then played for the drinks reception after the ceremony. Oleg is a first class performer and totally fitted the uplifting, classy musical act that we dreamt of for this special day. So many of our guests commented how they had enjoyed listening to him play. If you are looking for a fabulous musical entertainer look no further - Oleg is your man! He certainly made what was such a wonderful day even more special 🎷❤️"
