Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"Jess and The Red Hot Rags were amazing. Having planned an small private event for my Father in Law that had to be postponed due to Covid we were delighted to reorganise an outdoor, social distancing event for today. The Red Hot Rags played wonderful music and made a man whose health is rapidly fading very very Happy. I can't thank them enough for all they have done and would recommend them to anyone. Thank you so much"

"I am so so so glad you had a cancellation on the night of our wedding and we were able to have you!!! You got everyone up and dancing and everyone commented on how great you were!! You were definitely my favourite addition to the wedding and the evening wouldn’t have been half as good without you and your sax!"

"With a month or so to go before our wedding (July 2015) we found ourselves without an organist. Not knowing quite what to do next, we turned to Google and found Lastminutemusicians.com. Choosing an organist from the site was such a daunting prospect given how important the organist's role was to be and not knowing if the person we would end up choosing would be any good! After a number of replies from other performers we chose Mark and we couldn't have been in better hands. Mark is a true professional and a talented performer. He is eager to please, vastly experienced and could adapt most songs/pieces of music for the organ. A week or so before our wedding, and in his own time, he visited our chapel and familiarised himself with the organ he would be playing. We also spoke frequently on the phone to discuss our thoughts regarding what we wanted to be performed and he also provided helpful suggestions and ideas without 'taking over'. On the day itself he was prompt, well presented and played beautifully. Thank you again Mark for your contribution to our special day, I really can't recommend you enough...in fact two of the guests at our wedding used Mark as the organist at their wedding having been impressed, I'm sure, at what they heard!"

Reply by Mark Burton - Wedding Organist / Pianist
Mark and Di - the pleasure was all mine! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to play the Binns Organ in Queens College, Cambridge - it was a treat for me too as an organist. I'm pleased that you were happy with my performance on such a hot day, the organ took time to set up for the wedding, but it was worth it. And, I got to do it all again in August for your friends wedding in the same chapel!

"Jan is absolutely fantastic musician. He made a perfect ambience for our reception. He played background music all day, he had young and old entertained. Everyone commented on the music and I would definitely recommend Jan. He set the mood for a brilliant laid back fun day. Can not thankyou enough Jan especially for helping with the music for me to walk in and out of the service. A lovely added extra that was no hassle to you at all. Thankyou ."

"Love for sale played brilliantly at our party, created a really mellow vibe, read the room perfectly and our guests have not stopped complimenting us on our choice of music. Utterly professional and yet very relaxed. Great job and thank you to you all! "

"Dave and team were AMAZING!!! From doing a surprise entrance, to conga-ing all 138 of the guests into the marquee, it set the vibe for the whole day! If I could give more than 5 stars I would!"

"Swing Your Soul played at our Gala Dinner for the conference we were running, and were absolutely fantastic! The conference delegates had a ball and were up dancing right until the end – a sure sign that they were a big hit! Thanks to Ginger and the Swing Your Soul for playing at our event – would highly recommend if you want a cool, funky band to get the party started… and finished on a high note!"

"I had the chapel hill duo playing at my wedding on 18th February 2017 for the ceremony and wedding breakfast. As soon as I walked out my room and heard them playing started off my tears. Beautiful music played by two lovely people. Thank you so much xxx"

"These guys went down an absolute treat at our wedding in April, the dance floor was constantly full (and bouncing) and the music hit the brief we gave them perfectly. You can tell they're all real musicians, they don't have that "wedding band" feel that so many others do which is the main reason we asked them to play for us. Worth noting that their van broke down on the day of our wedding, but we had absolutely no idea. They just got in their respective cars, drove the 3 hour journey to Northumberland and got on with their thing. Would certainly recommend."

"My wife and I hired Glorious Grooves for our wedding. We trawled pretty much every website and listened to samples of many bands and felt that from what we heard from the group over the net was the best sound and take on the type of music we wanted for our big day. We were not disappointed. The band set up with absolutely no fuss and we completely flexible both before the wedding in terms of the sets they would play and also on the evening when a few things had overrun. From the start the music was fantastic - and everyone at the wedding and indeed afterwards were asking how we found the band and commented on how good they were. The guys are also all really nice people and had a quick beer with us after their set and helped make the whole experience a perfect one for our big day. I would without hesitation recommend the band to anyone- and finally get to thank them properly for a great set!!"

"I wanted to thank you for your contribution to the Stroud Jazz Club sessions on Sunday. Your solo set was fabulous and I thoroughly enjoyed playing with you in Andrew’s band. You have been a pleasure to work with - totally reliable and professional."

Hi Paul Many thanks for your positive feedback and for everything you and Judith and the team did to organise Sunday. It was a rip-roaring success and I look forward to working with you on more events! Hope you manage to have a well-deserved rest and relaxation this week — and thanks again for everything you've done! See you soon Cheers Rory
