"Our decision to book Tony was very last minute (literally the week before our wedding) because we felt that we really needed musical accompaniment to our hymns. We were planning to have all other music on an MP3 player. Tony was great to deal with - came back quickly and was very professional in his communications. We arranged to meet at the church the day before and Tony brought all four additional songs that were going to be on the MP3 to see if we liked how they sounded on the organ. He then played them for us. I cant tell you how much better the music sounded on the organ. Tony, you were easily the 'icing on the cake' and the best last minute decision we made. Many of our guests commented on your playing and you were brilliant to deal with. We cannot recommend you highly enough. We're only sorry that it has taken us this long to put up a review. Thanks for helping to make our day perfect. "

"Having Matt play at our wedding was an absolute joy and made for beautiful listening! The songs for our ceremony were mostly all new to Matt but were all played faultlessly and it made our ceremony even more memorable! 100% recommend for any event not just a wedding!"

"I knew the moment I heard Jon's demo tracks on the web that he was the musician for my wife's 65th Birthday Party. Jon easily met and exceeded expectations. We asked him to play Porter and Gershwin songs such as "True Love" and "Embraceable You". Jon plays with such style, it's a joy to listen. Jon had a foot injury and his tennis buddy Ian brought him to our place. Gosh, Ian's also a great pianist. My wife loved their duet of Joplin's "The Entertainer". I've been looking forward to this party for a year and so happy with the performance. Now I'm going to cook up another excuse for a party so that we can invite Jon to play again. Thank You, Jon. 10/10. Couldn't be better."

"David did an absolutely beautiful job of playing my wife down the aisle. The two of them organised a surprise song and it was stunning. Not only is David is an exceptionally gifted musician, he is also sensitive to the moment and plays perfectly to time with the bridesmaids & bride. I would 100% recommend him!"

"Thank you so much for all your help at the wedding reception of our daughter. Your piano playing was superb and was very much enjoyed by all there and gave a great ambience whilst the choice of music was impeccable. I am only sorry that you were unable to play for us at the church because of the requirement to use the local 'church organist' . Your punctuality and professionalism shine through and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone. Thank you again for making the day so special."

Thank you again for your comments Sarah, it was a pleasure to play for your drinks reception at The paddocks Hotel. I'm pleased that you were happy with my choice of music, although we did get a few requests in too! I wish you both all the best for the future.

"Booking Rob for our private party was an absolute game-changer. Not only is he an incredible keyboardist, but he's also an absolute delight to work with. His friendly and accommodating nature made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. Rob's versatility is unparalleled; he effortlessly navigated through various musical styles, adding a touch of magic to each one. One standout moment was when the party was in full swing, and the energy was so infectious that we decided to extend the music for an extra set. Without missing a beat, Rob took the lead, suggesting and guiding the group through an additional set that perfectly captured the party mood. It was a testament to his quick thinking and adaptability. It's also worth noting that Rob's dedication extends beyond his musical prowess. He goes the extra mile by handling transportation and bringing his own top-notch equipment, ensuring a hassle-free experience for everyone involved. In short, if you're looking for a consummate professional who's not only a masterful musician but also a friendly collaborator and problem solver, Rob is the ultimate choice. His presence will elevate any event, leaving a lasting impression on all who have the pleasure of listening."

"Jane played at my birthday celebration afternoon tea for 30-odd family and friends held at Browns in Bristol and made it very special for all of us. I gave her a free hand over what to play and she came up with two excellently performed sets in various different styles that pleased everyone. Many of my guests commented on how much they had enjoyed the music and I really loved having Jane with us - especially when it came to playing Happy Birthday!"

"David was the pianist for my wedding ceremony as I walked down the aisle. And boy did he do a phenomenal job!!!! The mashup for the three songs we gave him for the entrance music was played so beautifully well. And then the worship session, wow!!! He brought down the heavens and the atmosphere in the room was charged. I couldn't fault anything at all. If you're looking for a pianist for your wedding or any events, look no further. David is your man ?"

"Mark was fantastic, spent a lot of time in advance of the wedding helping us decide song choices and ordering, right through to the ceremony itself where the music was simply incredible. I’d always dreamed of having an organ in the church and Mark enabled us to achieve exactly that. He played a mix of classic and more modern songs which gave the perfect balance. Mark then stayed and played the piano in our wedding breakfast, this was a fantastic set where lots of guests commented on the wonderful songs he played. Mark was fantastic, a true professional and would highly recommend. "

"Nigel played piano for our ceremony and the drinks reception at Shuttleworth House. He was absolutely fantastic and incredibly versatile with the constant changing of plans and restrictions. All of our family thought Nigel was fabulous! Thank you so much, we will most certainly have you play at our reception next year! "

"Thank you so much for playing for us at the `celebration` on Saturday evening; there have been so many messages from our guests on your exceptional range and quality of music, that you were certainly the star of the dinner. Angela and I are most grateful to you for your enthusiasm and assistance in making sure the evening was the success that it undoubtedly was, so very many thanks."

"The pianist was incredible, great music choice, he also played the wishes of the guests. It appeared that the same pianist was playing at the event in 2019 when our Lab organised a workshop and dinner in Homerton."
