Review Centre: Solo Musicians

"We were looking for a musician/singer for a birthday garden party and James P. Anno fit the bill perfectly. His extensive list of soul/jazz/current songs was great and we were able to choose 10-15 songs off his list to play along with others that he played. We also requested a song that was not on his list and James happily learnt the song which was really appreciated and well received. We had two 1 hour sessions with a relaxed feel for the first set and then a more uptempo second set, which is what we had asked for and worked really well for our afternoon/early evening party. James corresponded well, we had a zoom meeting to discuss what we wanted, the atmosphere we were trying to create and he took it all on board. James arrived early to set up, he was polite, friendly and professional throughout and was extremely flexible. James was a huge success with us and our guests, he is a great pianist and singer and there was lots of dancing. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend James."

"Traveling from Malibu to Scotland for the ultimate destination wedding was nothing short of spectacular due to the one and only Spud The Piper! Spud was the heart beat of our incredible wedding day -joyous, and absolutely full of life! Spud was a true hit with all 37 of our guests (they still talk about how much they love him); he is full of smiles, jokes, and laughter, in which brings a sense of warmth to any occasion. Spuds piping is so beautiful to the ear, we cannot wait to come back every three years to renew our vowels. First one in 2020 -I’ll hire Spud every time that we are in Scotland! Cannot thank you enough for making our day so unbelievably magical -Truly an asset to any event! xxx"

"Lovely was absolutely fantastic. Booked as a background singer for a Christmas Function, to sing at the beginning of the evening while the 120 guests arrived and ate their dinner. Lovely's singing is phenomenal and her ability to work the crowd is second to none. Unfortunately, I had booked a band to follow on after her set. I really wanted to get her to sing all night. If I'm honest, I was a bit put off booking Lovely as she was so cheap. Almost half the cost of everyone else I looked at booking. I am so glad I went with my gut instinct. I can't recommend Lovely enough and hope to get the chance to book her again."

"I have seen Tom perform twice and have really enjoyed it on both occasions. He had a unique and entertaining ‘quirkiness’ to his performance with his own material and also covers . I last saw him play on Christmas Eve and he really started the festive season off well for us. I hope to see him perform again soon."

"Billy played at our wedding in October. We booked very last minute and he couldn’t have been more accommodating. Not only was he punctual, discreet and a fabulous musician, he is also a really lovely chap and we loved having him there. Thank you Billy. "

"Hayley is one of my favourite performers. She just has the most beautiful voice but also has an incredible emotive connection when she sings, its very special. After singing in a concert for APNI that I produced, my husband asked her to write a song for my birthday last year and it was hilarious! A clever comedian in the making. On top of that, Hayley is one of the nicest humans I’ve met and I always rebook her. So whoever hires her will be put at ease immediately. Don’t dither just book her! ❤️"

"I can definitely recommend Myles as a very good jazz guitarist. He plays gentle Jazz standards with great style. I did not give him any requests so he played his standard play list. It was ideal for my party and gave it some great atmosphere."

"Jess was a fantastic part of our wedding celebrations. We all loved her and she did such a good, professional job. Taking the stress out of booking, arriving, setting up, and dazzling is all. She gave suggestions based on experience and played so well. "

"John provided the perfect Italian black tie event for my wedding at Nolitas Ristorante in Hertfordshire. We booked the Rat Pack show and were entertained with songs from Sinatra to Dean Martin; and Sammy Davis Jnr to Tony Bennett. I would definitely attend one of his shows in the future."
