Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"Adam and I would like to say a huge thank you for playing at our evening party. Your sets were amazing and we loved every minute. It exceeded all our expectations in the desire to have something a little different at our reception. Our guests are still taking about the ’sax player’! We wish you all the very best. Emma & Adam x "

"A sparkling performance for the whole set. They played what we asked for, brought the whole selection to life, kept people dancing non-stop and are great individual performers in their own right. Also, they are a great bunch of blokes who were easy-going when the timing changed a bit and were very happy to fit in with us. I could not think of any way they could be better. "

"S&J Duo are the ultimate party starters! Their gigs are all about great vibes, with a killer playlist that mixes old-school jams and the latest hits. It's hard not to catch the fun bug with these two rocking the stage - their energy is through the roof. Andrew’s powerful vocals blend so well with Henry’s cool, edgy playing. Whether you’re into chill acoustic vibes or pumped-up party tunes, they’ve got your back. They’re super professional, but it’s their passion for music that really makes every show unforgettable. Planning a party and want to make it epic? S&J Duo are your guys."

Hi Carla, Thank you so much for your kind words! I had a great evening, and I'm so glad everyone else did too! The birthday girl already said that she'd like me back for her 41st! Already looking forward to the next time you need a musician! Best wishes, Dan Brennan

"Luisa was an incredible addition to our wedding day - listening back to clips of her playing brings the two of us to tears with all the happy memories it brings back, and our guests thought she was wonderful. We appreciated how flexible she was, moving around so we could hear her better, and learning a song specifically for us. She was a delight, and we're very grateful. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who asked us."

"The party was a great success. Colin and I certainly enjoyed it. All aspects of the evening ran smoothly and you were terrific (as usual). You ramped up the atmosphere and got people on the dance floor early on. My thanks to you once again for coordinating things and I hope to see you back at South Beds in the not too distant future."

"Wow wow wow wow wow! What a band! We hired Madison Avenue for our wedding reception and they were absolutely amazing! They played some fantastic songs that were great for all generations. I do not think the dance floor was empty once for the whole time they played. Communication with the band prior to the event was brilliant. Emails were answered within a day, and questions (no matter how small) were answered in detail. The band even learnt a song for our first dance, which was so thoughtful of them and so kind - Thank you! Every single guest to our wedding has said to me how great they thought the band were, and I could not agree more. Do not hesitate to hire these guys, they are AMAZING. Thank you all for making my wedding so special."

"If you are considering booking Emma for your wedding we highly recommend you do! We booked Emma as we wanted a violinist to play a particular song that was special to us, not only could Emma do this and many other songs but she also sent us a video of her playing our song prior to booking to ensure we liked the version she played. It was perfect! Emma has been brilliant at replying to our messages and has made great suggestions for song choices. Emma played prior to ceremony whilst guests took there seats and after whilst they congratulated us on our marriage. The most important moment for us was when I walked down the aisle. The moment I heard our song I instantly felt emotional, hearing it played so beautifully. The ambiance of the violin really does create a wonderful atmosphere. Thank you so much for helping to make our day special."

"Crissi played for our wedding reception, and WOW! She was amazing and her energy was contagious - got into the crowd and got the guests up and dancing. She learnt some of our favourite tunes especially for the night and made the evening extra special - we'll be having her back for the anniversary, thanks chick!"

"Small Days guitarist Dave Merrick was the master of ceremonies, with vocalist Natalie Davies and sax player Brendan Whitmore joining him for the live songs. Dave unfolded the story at a well-judged pace, with records of Bessie Smith’s evocative voice even drawing applause from the attentive audience whenever they were included. The live contribution was important, too, and Natalie wisely steered away from imitating Bessie’s full-throated contralto to emphasis the singer’s lyrics with an upbeat swing on numbers like Need A Little Sugar and Send Me To The Electric Chair. Brendan Whitmore switched between soprano and tenor sax, the former particularly eloquent on Need A Little Sugar, the latter coming to the fore on T’Aint Nobody’s Business If I Do. All in all it was a satisfying journey through blues history with one of the great women who made the music what it became. Impressively, this was its first performance – and hopefully it will be seen again. - Tony Benjamin, Bristol 24/7 (Apr 08, 2017)"
