Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"The Catfish Kings were a phenomenal band that were perfect for the occasion of my parent's 50th Wedding Anniversary celebrations! The quality of the music was fantastic and had everyone dancing and having a good time. I would definitely recommend Harry and the rest of the band to get your feet tapping and your mouth singing! Very professional and entertaining, thank you!"

"Just wanted to say thank you so much for playing at our wedding on Saturday. The violin playing in the church was absolutely stunning and walking down the aisle to Pachelbel's canon played on a violin was really a dream come true! At school, I played the violin and Pachelbel's canon was the first classical tune I ever loved. At the wedding reception we thought you played the tunes we had selected beautifully on the piano. Many thanks again for being part of our special day! "

"My (now) wife and I booked the King’s Quartet to play at our wedding ceremony and reception in November 2017, and they were undoubtedly one of the highlights of the day. Despite contracting them at a relatively late stage (around three weeks before the event), they were very open to our requests, and the quality of their playing was excellent. As our wedding was quite small, their music really added to the ambience without overwhelming guests' conversations. We were also impressed with their professional service. They were smartly dressed, arrived exactly on time and managed the transition between the three rooms they had to play in without any problems."

"We could not be more delighted that Big Smoke Brass played at our wedding. Everyone told us how much they enjoyed their set and how much it contributed to the overall enjoyment of our day - the dance floor was packed throughout. They were so easy to communicate with also. We cannot recommend them highly enough."

"The Hot hats were more than we could have ever hoped for on our wedding day. Whether you plan a smaller wedding with close friends and family, or a larger affair, The Hots Hats are guaranteed to be the cherry on cake for your special day - Without them I'm not sure we would have been able to create the same party atmosphere! Whether our guests were tapping their feet or dancing on the grass, everyone enjoyed the entertainment. Alfie was also both friendly and professional throughout, making us feel at ease as we planned the day. Thanks so much! - Jess & Joe, July 2021 "

"I cannot rate Ceili Max more highly. All of the members of the band were helpful, enthusiastic and incredibly talented! They went above and beyond to make our evening special. All 150 people danced all evening and I put this entirely down to the energy generated by Ceili Max. We have already booked them in for our next event. Highly recommend - book them now!! "

"Dear Neil Huge thanks to you from both of us for your accomplished performance of vocals and disco at our Golden Wedding Party held at the Lakeview Manor, Honiton , Devon last weekend. All of our guests were completely bowled over by the quality and variety of the songs that you put together for us and this amply suited the age range at our celebrations. From the initial booking through to the song choices and then onto the performance day itself you have impressed us once again with the smoothness and ease of establishing and providing exactly what we were looking for and we would have no hesitation in recommending you to any potential clients because you can truly deliver the flawless entertainment that any occasion deserves. We both send you our very best wishes for your continued success throughout the westcountry, you have helped us make our special day even more memorable by your contribution Much Love and Admiration Bob and Jill England"

"James played for our ceremony and outdoor reception at Wedding in the Woods near Minstead last Saturday and I can not recommend him highly enough. He is an amazingly talented guitarist and his vocals are wonderful mix of acoustic pop artists like James Bay and more old school soul. His level of care and attention was superb - from spending an hour chatting music with us over coffee before the wedding to learning a new track for us and sending us videos of it leading up to the wedding to check our approval - I personally feel he was not only great value but an absolute pleasure to work with and created such a relaxed vibe. If you want a beautifully relaxed vibe and are even vaguely considering hiring James, do it! You won't be disappointed."

"Your attendance and the Piping you provided the Birthday Boy was nothing short of fabulous. Your rendition of Amazing Grace was overwhelming. We really did appreciate the time and effort you put in to make sure as organisers the event went just as we hoped it would. Thank you so much"

"Mark J played at our wedding ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast in Devon in June. He was absolutely superb! Very responsive and personable beforehand - nothing was too much trouble. He went above and beyond by liaising with the venue directly and learning a piece of music that wasn’t in his standard repertoire. The theme tune to My Neighbour Totoro is not something that is very well known in UK, but works very well on the piano and Mark J relished the opportunity to play it! He is very flexible and played in three different locations throughout the day, even setting up an electric piano outside for the drinks reception, which totally transformed the event. The music was brilliant and varied and we received lots of positive feedback from guests. I can’t recommend Mark J enough!"

"We had the pleasure of having Vernon perform at our workplace's Black History Month Jazz Night. During the event planning process, Vernon was really prompt in his communications with us, very accommodating and flexible. He also had a great selection of songs including ones that paid homage to the rich history of jazz music and the contributions of Black artists. During his performance, he was very good at getting the audience engaged and also had a great sense of humour to bring laughter too. Overall, Vernon's performance was a brilliant celebration of Black history through the lens of jazz music. It was a night filled with appreciation for the cultural heritage of the genre. "
