"We had a fantastic night with the Jive collective. Calvin, Jimmy, Ollie & Andy played beautifully and we have not stopped hearing praises from all our guests. It was great they could learn our first dance, it really kicked off the dancefloor. Would love to see you play again sometime. The booking process was really easy and Sarah-Jane (agent) was always quick to respond to questions and queries. James & Eleanor"

"I could not recommend this band enough; every guest was extremely impressed with their performance and (obviously) as were we! They are very professional and knew how to get people to dance. Plus they are more than happy to change songs from their set-list and even performed our first dance. Definitely consider them if you are planning any sort of occasion."

"Rory played at our multi generational 40th wedding anniversary party. He arrived promptly, was very communicative and did a fantastic job playing his sax, covering hits right through from the 50’s to the present day. Our guests loved his music and he made a significant contribution to a successful party and fantastic day. I would highly recommend. I am a very satisfied customer. Very many thanks Rory."

Hi Nicky, Wow, I’m absolutely thrilled by your kind words—thank you so much! It was truly a pleasure to be part of your special day and contribute to such a memorable celebration. Your guests were fantastic, and it was wonderful to see everyone enjoying the music. I’m especially grateful for the testimonial and your generosity with the tip—it means a lot to me. I’ll be sure to share your lovely feedback with Sarah-Jane and add it to my profile. Please don’t hesitate to give Sarah-Jane a shout if you ever need music for another event or if any of your friends are looking for a saxophonist. I’d be delighted to work with you again in the future. Thanks again, Nicky, and all the best to you and your family. 😊 Cheers, Rory

"Athena were amazing. Clearly skilled musicians and play brilliantly together. They certainly went the extra mile for us last night. Everything was executed perfectly with backing tracks timed to perfection. Having live strings was a total success. I would be delighted to recommend them without reservation."

"Superb!! Set list was extensive with a wide range of songs. All excellently sang, brilliantly played by the band. I’d recommended seeing or using Midnight Sun for any event you may be planning. "

"We had Lily Mai & The Echoes perform at a retirement party and they were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Lily’s voice is stunning and the band created the perfect atmosphere — relaxed, classy, and uplifting. They read the room beautifully, mixing soulful favourites with upbeat tracks that had everyone smiling and singing along. So many guests commented on how good the music was. Professional, friendly, and hugely talented — we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for any celebration."

Hi Claudia, Thank you for your feedback of Rory on 09/09/2021 I am delighted that you were happy with the music, and I will pass on your kind feedback to the musicians. Stephanie has been in touch this morning regarding the missing extension and I have made swift enquiry with the musicians. I will keep you updated on how we get on and, if necessary, order a replacement for you. I am sorry to hear that it has gone amiss as we really appreciated the venue providing it for us. Meanwhile, I would like to once again thank you for the booking last Thursday, and I send you our warmest wishes. Thanks, Rory

"We had The Line Up at our wedding in August 2019. They were fantastic! They sang our chosen songs and then ensured that they had our wedding party up and dancing all night. They were so enthusiastic and attempted to fit in all requests. They were professional and their communication was second to none. We would definitely use them again at any parties or celebrations we have and would highly recommend anyone else to use them too!"

"You simply can’t get any better than this band. Totally professional and wonderful music. Everyone at our event thought they were the best and thought we were at Glastonbury. I’d hire them again without a second thought"

"Couldn't fault Michael, he had great communication with me ahead of the event and even questioned if there was anything specific he should wear, which was great as our event had a dress code theme. He was prompt and his performance was fab! Would definitely book again and recommend to others :)"
