Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"Ollie played at the reception of our wedding and he nailed it. We wanted upbeat energy and not just background music, we’d chatted about the vibe (00s, 90s bangers but not cheese) and he smashed it. We knew his playlist from seeing him many times at Pews in Guildford (and befriending him) and we knew it was great without our input. He threw in a couple of requests. We would absolutely recommend him for any event. 10/10! "

"We booked Irish Folk/Pop Band for our wedding evening , and oh my goodness these guys are amazing !! Leading up to the wedding communication was great , and they were so accommodating to playlists and to requests. Every one of my guests has said to me how great our band was, 100 % recommend! Have asked the lads to drop us a wee message if they're playing anywhere locally as we want to see them play again."

"Jamie is so talented! A fantastic guitarist that goes above and beyond! We booked him for our wedding ceremony in October 2023 and he played me down the aisle so beautifully with an instrumental of ‘Songbird’. It couldn’t have been more perfect, we were blown away. He also learnt an instrumental version of ‘More than Words’ for the signing of the register, which was absolutely stunning! Thank you for making our ceremony so special, Jamie. Highly recommended!"

"Many thanks to you and the band for making my daughter's wedding very enjoyable for myself and all the guests. Everyone told us that it was the best wedding they had been to in a long time. Everything went to plan and it made it a day to remember and the band was perfect it was something that we wanted because we didn't want loud disco music and you did us proud! We will be passing your name on to any family or friends who may need a band in the future. Once again many thanks for the service you provided not just on the day but before the day as well."

"We wanted to book a musician to play background music as our guests arrived, drank their bubbly, ate their canapes and mingled and then whilst they were having their starter. We wanted something very classy and my partner's favourite instrument is the cello. Having watched Emily on YouTube, I had no hesitation in booking her and she exceeded our expectations. What a privilege to have such a talented composer/musician play at our function! All the guests enjoyed listening to her playing classical and modern pieces as well as hearing the story of her blue electric cello. Furthermore, Emily is an extremely lovely lady and she made the booking process so easy. Thank you for making my special event even more special."

"I just wanted to email you both to say what an absolutely fabulous afternoon you put on for us last Sunday at Saint Hill!! It was really superb and a 10 out of 10. The guests just loved every moment and every piece of music. I think it's the first time we've had a standing ovation at our annual classical concert! Everything was spot-on - from the fast email responses, to the professionalism of both the booking side and the musicians, the high quality of performance - it was perfect. I will be in touch as we may well want to book you for next year's concert "

"Polly her band played at my parents 50th wedding anniversary and did a great job of livening up the evening whilst being sensitive to those who wanted to sit and chat. They played a range of songs from across the decades which went down really well, evidenced by the full dancefloor. They were really friendly, courteous and professional and had nice interactions with the guests. Thanks Guys!"
