"Soul Debonair was a great entertainer. Everyone had a lovely time and commented on how fantastic he was. He interacted with the audience which went down very well. We were very impressed with the whole evening and would very much like to have him back at some date"

"Chris made our event into a great party. He was flexible when the weather turned bad and he was happy switching to play indoors. He played anything we asked, got us all singing along and made it a great day!"

"We had the pleasure of Melissa singing at our vintage themed Wedding in February. What can I say - Melissa is so talented and a beautiful singer. She made our drinks reception absolutely perfect and all our guests where complimenting how fantastic she was. Melissa was so accommodating with her set list and even sang a personal request for me and Tom (husband). Having Melissa sing at our wedding made our day the extra special and I could not recommend her highly enough. Thank you so much and we would love to see you sing again in the future. "

"From the planning stage through to the big day itself, Glow Band were an amazing part of our wedding celebration. They made it easy and effortless to plan what we wanted and we knew we were in safe, talented hands. As a slightly anxious wedding planner myself, I was calmed by knowing I could rely on them to deliver exactly what we dreamed of. On the day, we experienced some unexpected minor delays in the running of the day - Glow Band adapted instantly to these delays and timing changes and went with the flow. They were ready to start as soon as we needed, always happy to adjust timings where we asked. Having Glow Band perform a unique version of our aisle song was one of the highlights of our wedding day. The connection between Michelle and James meant that they knew how to seamlessly extend and adapt the song under pressure to allow me more time to prepare myself to walk in the bridal procession. Our wedding day then featured an acoustic set as well as an electric set to get the party started in the evening. Every guest enjoyed this part especially as we were all up, singing and dancing to the classic hits. Michelle’s presence and energy on stage is incredible and James’ guitar solos were an exceptional treat for us all. You can instantly tell these two are in their element as soon as you see them on stage together. They were even happy to let my saxophonist bridesmaid join them up on stage to perform together for a few numbers - their flexibility and openness with this meant a lot to me. Overall, we were thrilled to have Glow Band at our wedding: they truly livened up our intimate celebration and brought everyone together! Thank you so much Michelle and James - Love from a very happy bride!"

"Nigel played for our ceremony and drinks reception which lasted around 2-3 hours. The music was brilliant from start to finish and we (including our guests!) loved the set lists, as there was such a variety of songs. We would definitely recommend, and hopefully have the opportunity to use Nigel again in the future! Thank you!!! "

"We would like to come up with a review on Bob On Saturday 16 September 2023, we celebrated our 116th birthday. We had heard good things about Bob Ferguson from others, so we decided to have him round off a great day with 3 hours of superb entertainment. It was an unforgettable evening, Bob really manages to hit his audience, and the atmosphere was instantly top notch. Bob got everyone involved, and there was dancing and singing along to the big gold medal. And the best recommendation you can get is that we have hired Bob Ferguson again for a good and pleasant day/evening in March 2024."

"The first of these is local all-round musician Wendy Jane, who can usually be seen performing in local supergroup Moonbeams with Conrad Barr and Paul Tucker (who can be seen at this very venue in April). Also she performs her own original material on a variety of instruments including flute, harp, guitar and tonight her weapon of mass entertainment is the grand piano. Wendy starts by explaining that she painfully split up from a 20-year marriage, she put all of the emotion and heartache into an album called A Song For Ever Lover. The recently dank weather has not been kind to Wendy as her voice is suffering, with her barely being able to talk. However; when she starts to sing, somehow there is some real power in her voice. The first number called “Love On A Wire” shows an emotional delivery as well as some really skilful piano work. As the audience sits back relaxing, this musician delivers a host of delightful tunes including “Sticks & Stones” about a former homeless graffiti artist and a track called “Oblivion” written in the style of a James Bond theme. Two vocalists; Wendy’s daughter Isabelle Glover and her friend Freya Morrow take to the stage to add some lovely harmonization to a few tunes, including a powerful number called “Phenomenal Woman”. The whole set shows what a great depth and honest singer/writer Wendy is and despite a voice lurgy, delivers an engaging 40 minutes full of highlights."
