"Jason playing for us at Clava Cairns was one the highlights of our splendid road trip with our classic cars through the Highlands. A moment of real emotions. Some of my participants thanked me for this moment again when leaving for home. We are all very grateful to you!"

"On December 1st 2018 our daughter Kerry married her partner Clare at the Milky Way Wedding Barn. The previous year we attended a Wedding Fayre where we spotted Tim playing the saxaphone and we promptly booked him to play at their wedding. The girls didn’t have any particular thoughts on what music they wanted at the time and Tim was extremely helpful with suitable suggestions especially the classical pieces. Tim patiently awaited their choices and didn’t even blink an eye when bizarrely one of the songs they asked him to play afterwards for fun was the Benny Hill theme tune !! This went down very well indeed with all. I suppose a saxaphone isnt the usual choice for wedding music but I have say it was perfect. It sounded mellow and smooth during the little ceremony and upbeat and fun for the champagne reception afterwards. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Tim again and I hope we have the opportunity to do so at some point. We had lots of feedback from our guests wondering where we found Tim and all thoroughly enjoyed listening to him and I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets a few bookings from our part of Devon in the future. Many thanks Tim from all the Davey family."

"I just wanted to let you know as well how lovely it was to hear Sarah play for my nana. She would have absolutely loved it, everyone commented how lovely Sarah sounded and how special it made it for our Ruby. Thanks for the recommendation. "

"Incredibly talented and so obliging. I kept changing my song requests and order and he just sorted everything out. Very calm person too which is exactly what you need. He just cracked on figured out how to get to and park at the venue (which isn’t easy) and played beautifully. Everyone was so pleased we picked classical/Spanish guitar. It just has a depth and gentleness for a wedding. I really would recommend above the usual string quartet. He was also very professional and incredibly punctual. He played at the church and headed straight to the venue in port Isaac hall. I’m inspired to get back into classical guitar again."

"To say we loved the time Matthew spent at our wedding is an understatement. Matthew radiates fun and is just super cool to have at your event. The playlist was a full-on party vibe the entire time; we didn’t want him to go. If you're even just thinking slightly about a sax player; Matthew is your guy. Just do it; you won’t regret it."

"Tim was fabulous at our son’s wedding. He is a fabulous musician, but also a genuinely lovely person. He became an important part of the memories made during our amazing day. His planning was always appropriate for the moment with well considered pieces and was impeccable in quality. The children loved him too. If you are looking for a musician for your special occasion then don’t hesitate, Tim is your man! Becky Tucker wedding 3/12/22"

"Wow, Sue is absolutely brilliant, what a talent! Sue performed at our wedding, a solo set during our drinks reception and then alongside the DJ in the evening. Sue was a pleasure to work with, a ray of sunshine, and absolutely contributed to the smooth running of the day. I think every guest commented on how amazing Sue was, thank you! Now to plan another party so we can have her back!"

"I cannot express enough gratitude for the brilliant performance delivered by Simon at my father's funeral in Hereford. Simon's mastery of the bagpipes added an incredibly poignant and deeply moving element to the service. His choice of tunes were not only impeccably played but also reflected a profound understanding of the solemnity of the occasion. Simon's music resonated through the church, evoking a range of emotions that truly honoured my father's memory. Beyond his exceptional musical talent, Simon exhibited a high level of professionalism and compassion. His presence brought a sense of authenticity and tradition, providing solace to my family. I am immensely grateful for Simon's contribution to the funeral, turning a sombre moment into a beautiful and fitting tribute. His music brought comfort and a touch of grace that made the ceremony truly unforgettable. "

"What can I say! Andy was absolutely amazing. I can't thank him enough for his professionalism and attention to detail at such a sad occasion as my Mums funeral. Andy looked and sounded fabulous and really set the scene for my dear Mum and our whole family. Even the funeral director said he'd never experienced anything quite like it, that he'd heard pipers before at funerals but when Andy played it sent shivers down his back as he followed Andy playing the bagpipes and leading my Mum to her final resting place alongside my dear Dad. Thank you so much Andy."

Thank you for your very kind words Rosemary. It was an absolute honour to lead your mother back to your fathers side. It was very nice meeting you and your wonderful family, I do hope we meet again in happier circumstances. All the very best, Andy
