"Hi Tomos, I can't thank you enough for today, it was nothing short of absolute perfection! Your arrangement of our chosen songs was absolutely amazing, it really did melt both of our hearts - particularly Crystal's entrance and the first piece during the signing. I'm so sorry that I didn't manage to thank you in person; all tied up with herding our guests! Our most heartfelt thanks once again, for making our big day absolutely perfect. The compliments on your performance are raining in, even as I type this email! All of my best regards, Ollie"

"I first saw Chris performing in a bar in Altrincham and he was excellent, I loved all the songs he played and he has a real charisma with his audience. I booked him for family birthday party in our local pub and although he had 2 other gigs that day, he squeezed us in for an hour slot. His play list was perfect and everyone at the party commented on how much they enjoyed his choice of music. Even the little ones loved him too. We will definitely book him in the future and recommend him 100%. "

"I would just like to say thank you for a brilliant night... Cat played her amazing saxophone at our wedding at York Maze and she was brilliant all the way through... She didn't just stay on the stage the whole night... No this lady is a true entertainer. She was in the crowd with all our family and friends... Everyone just loved her, I couldn't get over how brilliant she really is... Not only was she amazing on the night, she worked with us all the way. She listened to what we liked and played them all... Loved every minute thankyou so much, would highly recommend her!"

"I hired Madhu for my 50th Birthday party, it was truly a memorable afternoon - I booked her last minute and I had a particular Ibiza vibe in mind, and she interpreted my vision of what I wanted perfectly. She was absolutely fantastic on the day, not only her playing (she is so talented), but how brilliantly she engaged with my family and friends - some of my friends were a little bit tentative to join in, but she made them feel at ease. She incorporated all my dedications seamlessly within her sets, as she plays all music genres. I would not hesitate in booking her again for another event of mine or recommend her to anyone reading this!"

"We had so many compliments from our guests about Ruth, everyone we spoke to said how it was a lovely alternative to the organ. Even the vicar was very complimentary on Ruth’s work and highlighted how lovely it was to hear the hymns played by harp! Ruth is exceptionally talented and it was an honour to have her play at our wedding. We were given the option to have Ruth learn 3 new songs for us, alongside using any songs from her existing library, which we jumped at. She also reached out to us and offered to also sing the song we had chosen as our aisle song by sending us a clip of the harp solo along with her singing - we didn’t realise Ruth was also a singer and her voice complimented the harp and the song so well. Ruth and her harp were a fantastic addition to our wedding ceremony and we were so pleased to have booked her to join us on our special day."

"He's an exceptionally talented musician. Anyone who can fathom those Latin jazz changes has to be some kind of genius..."

Hi Steve thanks that’s perfect 😊 I’m good just heading down to Dulwich today for job hunting with my friend to give me a change of scene. Hope you’re having a lovely time in Portugal. Cheers!

"We were very pleased to hire Jonny Kerry for our wedding. He was a pleasure to deal with whilst organising the wedding. On the day he did a great job. His playing is lovely and he created the atmosphere we were hoping for during the build up to the ceremony and after. Thank you very much."

"Hi Rory, Thank you so much for coming to play at our wedding. It was the perfect accent to our cake eating and dancing to round off a fantastic day. Hannah's parents particularly enjoyed it, spending quite a bit of time on the dance floor! The band played with great enthusiasm, and the arrangements for the day could not have gone more smoothly. With our thanks again, Hannah & Andrew"

"Wow what an evening! You truly were the star of the show tonight…just blew everyone away. You are from now until forever my favourite saxophonist. I feel so honoured and know our guests did too. Thanks for your flexibility and assistance and please pass on my thanks to your husband. It was a pleasure having you both with us. As soon as I have an excuse to book again I will do! Thanks again"

"Becca performed at our wedding last August and we still talk about it today. Becca is hugely talented, fun, professional and kept us in the loop until the big day. She was a great hit with all of our guests and the day really wouldn’t have been the same without her. "

"Rory were great at our wedding. First, they were super-flexible, fitting in with our somewhat fluid plan for the day! But most importantly, all our guests loved the accompaniment they provided to our special afternoon at Holdsworth House. They are a very talented bunch of guys, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a live jazz band. Thank you very much."

"It is difficult to capture just how fabulous Lisa was before as well as on the day. She is such a lovely, fun and friendly woman. We really enjoyed working with her in planning the day and her singing down the phone to us as she explored various song suggestions will be a fond memory for us both... leaving us very excited for the day itself. We both love music, as do our families and put a lot of effort to line up some fantastic musical acts in addition to Lisa, including a 6 piece band and a solo guitarist we flew in from abroad. We also had a number of first class entertainers and performers....however despite this, the number one comment we had from every guest during the day and since has been the dramatic and hugely positive impression Lisa had on everyone. We almost felt bad our guests were giving her so much attention and trying to book her for their own events, including a lot of people who had already booked their musicians and were now having second thoughts!! We wanted the wow factor and Lisa certainly provides that. We can’t think of anyone we’ve ever seen musically who is so versatile and yet consistently high quality, indeed... top class. From classical church performances (she is very knowledgable and comfortable in working with you and your ceremony) ... she also learnt a particular piece for us that we’ve never heard covered and yet she delivered it as if it was her favourite song while also very much making it her own. Switching to a top class contemporary set during the drinks reception took everyone by surprise....and her true personality really came out when she switched into a medley of her own hip hop / original numbers blended with a traditional Irish music session, a sing off and an Irish dance combo. There is little to add to what others more qualified have already said in terms of her pure and incredible voice. Beyond this... to give you a sense of her capability... she was able to jam with another musician she only met on the day... to pick up, tune and play a new instrument (family heirloom banjo) as a special request.... to captivate 150 guests of all age ranges and from across the globe, and was able to keep our guests enthralled and enchanted with her for over 6 hours. We’ve met someone who we will enjoy following and listening to for the rest of our lives and who we will always feel lucky we were able to have share our special day. I suspect we will be going to see her gig and perform again very soon (if our guests don’t beat us to it first!). "

"Laura played for an hour during our wedding ceremony and was absolutely amazing! Everything ran smoothly and on time. The guests all commented on how much they loved the live music and we wouldn’t hesitate to book Laura again. We would recommend Laura to anyone looking for a pianist."
