"Kingfisher are a duo not to be missed. They were very accommodating adding new songs and including guests requests. I would not hesitate to recommend them for any function. Gary has a fab voice and they sound absolutely fabulous. Thank you both for helping to make our wedding day extra special. "

"Whilst some duos stick to a traditional & tried and tested route, A & B have avoided that. They have chosen a hip approach to their covers and original set! Not a light-hearted approach either! They are here to play... to give a new listening experience... a must see in the LIVE! Unique in all aspects."

"We are so, so pleased that we booked Don’t Think Twice Acoustic Band because they made our wedding day so special! They are both so talented and wonderful people who created the perfect atmosphere during the ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast. It was everything we hoped for. We cannot recommend them enough, thank you so much."

"We wanted to thank you for giving our wedding that extra wow factor with your great talent. Tom was recommended to us. He was the perfect choice of entertainment to get our guests tapping their feet, singing along & up & dancing. With an amazing voice & great range of songs to suit everybody and his interaction with guests he was first class. It was also great for evening guests arriving to see that the party had already started with a swing, what a great way too start the evening off. All of our guests were very very impressed (especially the ladies) and we had lots of great compliments about his performance. We have since been to see him performing at the Eastbourne Band Stand with his very popular Michael Buble tribute act and had yet another fantastic time. If you are looking for an entertainer for your wedding or any other event then look no further, you won't be disappointed."

"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! "

"Honestly Brad and Simon were amazing. They played absolute bangers and every single person had a proper boogie. They were friendly, professional and took all my song requests on board. Both super talented and we are so grateful. Every single guest commented on how great the music was. Thank you again Brad and Simon!"

"We booked Sonia and her band for our first ever Summer party, sponsored by Peroni. We really wanted to create a classy and fun event which would be different to anything in the area, and they certain delivered that. The look and feel of the band perfectly complimented the event and playing outside on our lovely decking created an amazing atmosphere for all our guests. The diverse use of songs really helped our guests enjoy classic singalongs with an incredible jazzy vibe. My personal favourite moment however, has to be the fact you could hear the music out in the front garden as well, creating a pub wide effect and seeing families not near the music still dancing and singing away was incredible. I would highly recommend, especially with saxophone."

"If you are looking for versatile and professional musicians Alfie and Owen are a safe pair of hands. They were extremely thoughtful when my planned 70th Birthday party coincided with the recent sad passing of a family member. They were able to lift us all and read the room with sensitivity. They were flexible and willing to respond to our requests, but also ‘held ‘ the situation with confidence . This guitar duo are skilled musicians. They have great musicality and range, entertaining our family with ages from 3 yrs to 70 yrs. Alfie is a prompt communicator and they were 100% reliable in all aspects from booking, arrival , supply of equipment and performance. We had a brilliant night!!"

"We booked Rory for our daughter's 21st where he played the piano for a relaxed drinks reception in the house, followed by sax working with the DJ in a much more lively party setting afterwards over at our annexe. Rory blended in perfectly in both settings, with relaxed sets being played on the piano followed by very engaged, immersive sets with the sax on the dance floor with our guests. He really just gets on with his thing and really made the event that extra special and received a ton of complementary from some very happy guests. We would whole heartedly recommend."

"It was an absolute pleasure and delight meeting you on Saturday, you completely blew me away with expectations. I know that you had not had the best of weeks prior to Saturday, but please don’t let peoples opinions or actions define who you are as a person, or your passion. You are extremely talented and is a gift. So many people came to me and said how amazing you are! "If you are considering hiring Rory for your event 100% do it. Rory played at our wedding and completely blew us and our guests away, such a talent. Before our wedding we collaborated on what vibe we wanted to set, songs, some surprises for our guests and Rory completely understood the assignment and just continued to surprise and bring pure joy. Rory made our wedding the most magical, joyous and beautiful experience possible."

Hi Lyndsey, Sorry to hear you’ve not been feeling great, although I can understand with the wedding and everything, with all the preparation and seeing so many people from your life in one go, it can be emotionally and physically draining. Do take plenty of rest and care of yourself. You deserve it! Thank you so much for your wonderful testimonial, really, it means the world to me! As you know, I had such joy contributing to your special day and I really appreciate your kindness and the energy of everyone at The Merlin. Thanks also for your understanding, Sarah-Jane was very supporting, she said that this wedding was what I needed right now, and like you said it was meant to be! It was great spending some time in Manchester again! It was a fantastic event, a true pleasure to be a part of, and feel free to give SJ a shout if you need any help with any future events. Many thanks and have a wonderful Christmas. All the best for 2025! Cheers Rory
