Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"I booked Ben to perform at my wife's 30th birthday party and he did not disappoint. Ben set the perfect atmosphere for the party and allowed people to just sit and enjoy his music or get up and dance. "

"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!). "

"Great! We asked Swing Zippers to provide background jazz music for a Birthday garden party and they were excellent. They turned up on time, set themselves up and played a range of jazz music which everyone enjoyed. They were very professional, really nice guys and just came and fitted in. Just what we wanted!!! We will definitely use again and would highly recommend the duo. "

"We booked Robbie for our wedding ceremony in December 2022. He is very pleasant, professional, and incredibly talented. There was nothing that was no trouble, we expressed the songs we would like and was happy to accommodate. Robbie was even happy to learn songs that he was not familiar with. He is very easy to contact and responds quickly, he communicated with us regularly and sent samples for us to listen to. He really made our ceremony everything we had wanted; I always dreamed of having live piano at my wedding and he made it reality. We like to thank Robbie was being apart of our special day, we feel very lucky to have come in contact with him and would highly recommend."

Thank you so much for your kind words. It was truly a pleasure to meet you both and play the piano for you. Thank you for choosing me and also for the most unexpected thank you gift voucher that you sent me a few days after - that really made my week!

"Booked ABBA Experience for a venue in Newcastle. What a show! Not only are the 4 of them really nice people, they also make a fancy tribute to ABBA. Two x 45min sets where the set list was just right, building from slower numbers up to the last 45mins which had hit after hit. Everyone had a brilliant time. The set up was brilliant, the quality of their gear was brilliant and they were BRILLIANT!"

"Haley and I just wanted to say a huge thank you for filling our dance floor and making last Friday truly unforgettable! The music was great and we loved every song you chose. Everyone loved how lively the dance floor was and it was thanks to you that the party didn’t stop until they were basically kicking us out! Haha we all would have stayed out there if we could! All the best for the coming months and new year."

"Nigel played at our wedding for both the ceremony and the wedding breakfast.From the moment I met Nigel at a local wedding fair, I knew I wanted his music at our wedding. Nigel was professional and helped create a beautiful atmosphere. The songs he played were perfect, it was so lovely to see guests singing along to disney tunes! All of our guests commented on how lovely it was to have a pianist, Nigel made our day extra special. (At Abbey Hill)"

"Miss Ivy Belle sang at our Beer, Cider & Music Festival in July 2024. She sang a spectacular set ranging from some great 'standards' of the 40's and 50's to some really exciting and individual takes on some modern classics. She was so popular with the crowd at the Festival that she was immediately booked to return for our Festival in 2025 which will run from Friday 1st to Sunday 3rd August 2025. If you are in the Trull area on Friday 1st August make sure you come down to the Winchester Arms to see Miss Ivy Belle singing from 7pm onwards. We can't wait to welcome her back!!!"

"I first saw Chris performing in a bar in Altrincham and he was excellent, I loved all the songs he played and he has a real charisma with his audience. I booked him for family birthday party in our local pub and although he had 2 other gigs that day, he squeezed us in for an hour slot. His play list was perfect and everyone at the party commented on how much they enjoyed his choice of music. Even the little ones loved him too. We will definitely book him in the future and recommend him 100%. "

"We were delighted to welcome Harriet Flather to a recent Christmas Reception for our Board of Directors. It was spellbinding to hear such a wonderful instrument played so professionally. She created an ambience that was perfect for our reception party and about which so many of our guests made positive comments. I would thoroughly recommend anyone thinking of a creating an unusual form of welcome to their corporate event to consider a harpist and if so Harriet would be the ideal choice."
