"I booked Craigi Ceilidh Band through Last Minute Musicians for a barn dance for my 25 year old son. The booking was completed very easily, and I was kept informed at all times. The event was a huge success, the band arrived in plenty of time to set up and entertained early guests with background music before the main event. They managed to get all our guests up and dancing - I have never been to a dance where the men had to dance together - but they were all so keen to join in. I would have no hesitation to book through LMM again, and Craigie Ceilidh band would be my first choice."

"We engaged Shama to organise and stage the entertainment for the 10th anniversary of Elevation Wealth Management . This included dancers, band and DJ in addition to providing all of the set. Support was very professional - didn’t have anything drop - and the results were brilliant . We have staged a number of parties over the years , including weddings and charity events. Guests who have attended most of them - said it was the best they had been to . Thank you Shama ! "

"I don't often do reviews, but thought I really should in this case. I saw Andy Ax perform at the Gin and Prosecco Festival in Norwich. He'd already done a show in the afternoon apparently, and did another 2 hours in the evening. It would be fair to say that I was very impressed! Andy is a phenomenal vocalist - think Jamie Cullum / Harry Connick Jr / Michel Buble, although the thing I liked most about him is that he doesn't try to imitate the singers who originally performed the songs, but sings them in his own voice, if that makes sense! And what an incredible voice! He was fully engaged with the audience and the audience loved every second of it from the Hen Parties to the Family on the front table to the elderly ladies who sat and watched, everyone was catered for and involved. Of course, the kind of music Andy performs isn't to everyone's taste, but if you like a bit of Swing, you can't go wrong with Andy Ax. I can't wait to see him again!"

"Thanks to South West Band who were brilliant at our wedding, we had Henry doing the PA system during the reception and the 3 piece band and they created such a great atmosphere on the dance floor which was packed all night. Henry had great song suggestions and was great to work with both during the day and prior to the wedding getting everything organised. He was so relaxed with timings which was great on the day. The band played great music, the classics, some mash ups and some requests on the night. Thank you!"

"What a cracking band! From first contact with Jake to set up, to sound check, and their willingness to accommodate with our needs. They were great. All four members were excellent, and would definitely book them again. A definite and easy 5 stars from me. In fact, I keep getting texts asking who the band were, and where did I find them??!! Well done all!"

"I hired the Locals for my birthday party last Saturday and it was perfect. Paul was really helpful from the start, very reliable and easy to deal with. On the night, they were spot on. Great mix of music, got everyone dancing and I only wished we had had time for another set! Looking forward to planning another party to be able to book the Locals again! "

"Gary Trotman of Steelosophical was really excellent. Our charity event was brought to life with the amazing tropical sound that he produced. Everyone there was dancing to the music. Gary made the night!"

"I'm really sorry I didn't get to say thank you last night for your incredible music! You guys were literally awesome and I can't tell you how many people just kept saying to me 'the band is INCREDIBLE!'. Also thank you for performing our first dance song specially for us - I know it wasn't part of your usual repertoire and it was completely beautiful! I hope you had a safe journey home. We will send some pics when they come through in a few weeks' time. Best wishes"

"House of Chords played at our wedding festival. They were on a stage that we made under a little event tent and in the garden, they played to people from 80 to 3 and not one person didn’t say they were fabulous. They were really funny and polite to deal with and fitted into our peculiar wedding like a dream. I have no doubt that no matter what the venue and wedding style they would do the same. They really were amazing and we can’t thank them enough. I would recommend them in a heartbeat"

"Acoustic Saxophones were amazing. They created a wonderful atmosphere. They were friendly & professional. If you are thinking about having them at your party ‘do it’."

"The Highball Heavies were hands down the best band we could've picked for our wedding. Fantastic performance, the set was tailored perfectly to us, they had the dancefloor packed from start to finish. Lovely people too. Our guests have been raving about them ever since. Can't recommend highly enough."

"We would both like to say a huge thank you to The Warwickshire String Quartet for their amazing music at our wedding. There was a lovely atmosphere throughout the day as they played during our ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast. We received so many compliments from our guests as they enjoyed the beautiful music. Nothing was too much trouble and they were extremely friendly helpful and professional. Our venue West Tower were also very impressed with their performance and asked for their contact details. We would recommend you to anyone looking for a string quartet. Thank you for adding that special touch and making our wedding day one to remember. "

"First and foremost, thank you for a fantastic, enjoyable Saturday night last weekend! You and the entire band were awesome, and we've had a whole heap of great comments from our family and friends about the whole day, but in particular how much they enjoyed your live performance that evening. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! "

"We're back from honeymoon and now the dust has settled we wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to all of you for helping make our wedding a day to remember. You were brilliant (even better than I'd remembered from your promo video), and everyone kept coming up to us all night to say how fantastic you were. You kept the dance floor moving, and we had an absolute blast celebrating with you. We will definitely be recommending you to others (and judging from our guests' reactions, some of them will be too!). James, you made all of the arrangements in the run up so easy, and as a slightly frazzled bride to be I really appreciated that! We are still on cloud nine, and you all will be one of our stand out memories for years to come. Emma & James Hume Wedding Reception, Lains Barn, Wantage, March 2017"
