"We recently hired VIP Formula for a client event at The Nightjar, and we cannot speak highly enough of the experience from start to finish. From the very first point of contact, the team was responsive and easy to work with. A conversation with Michael instantly gave us the confidence that the evening would be in safe hands — he listened carefully to our brief, took the time to truly understand what we were looking to achieve, and then delivered beyond our expectations. Throughout the lead-up to the event, Michael remained consistently available, professional, and personable. He proactively offered creative ideas and suggestions that helped shape the atmosphere, making the evening feel all the more intimate and special for our guests. What particularly impressed us was how thoughtfully he personalised the experience to align with our brand — our clients were up playing instruments and dancing, which made for truly memorable moments that we simply could not have anticipated. VIP Formula brought an incredible energy to the room, and the impact on our guests was clear to see. We would wholeheartedly recommend VIP Formula to anyone looking to elevate a corporate event, and we very much look forward to working with them again in the future. Thank you Michael and the band!"

Hi Steve Thanks so much for inviting me down to play at your party, it was truly an honour and a pleasure, and I really enjoyed your company and the company of all your friends and family. I’ve just got back from Clapham where I’ve been telling Jo how well it went and she is thrilled too and I’m sure shell relay it back to our agent so all in all it was a great success and glad to be a part of it. I really appreciate your kind testimonial too - many thanks! I hope you enjoyed the rest of the afternoon and evening!! I sincerely hope to come back and play for you guys again! Best wishes Rory

"Hi Nigel Just to say many thanks for another wonderful performance by your fabulous Jazz trio at our recent BBQ in the garden. The music created the perfect ambience for the event and was much appreciated and enjoyed by all who were there. Especially me!

"Today I had the opportunity of listening to Mariachi Las Valentinas at a Mexican event in London; it was such a complete pleasure to witness such wonderful talent! Their traditional clothing and whole image is absolutely beautiful. I would like to thank each one of the group members for bringing our Mexican culture to the UK and to such a great standard, you make us Mexicans very proud!"

"Las Valentinas helped me propose to my future husband, and it was a beautiful moment! They learned the songs I wanted them to play and everything turned out perfect. I highly recommend them!"

"I just wanted to thank you so so much for 13th August. You, the jazz trio and the band were just outstanding! I had so, so many compliments from our guests about how fantastic you were, and it’s a testament to you that the dancefloor was packed while the band was playing. Despite slight logistical challenges, it all just went so well. I also loved hearing the excerpt from Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto after we were married - it was really really special. You were all just amazing, phenomenal, fantastic and you contributed to a brilliant date. Thank you!!"

"Edina really helped to make the lunch party we were holding for my husband's 70th birthday a tremendous success. We have had so much lovely feedback about her performance from the thank you cards and letters we have received. She was asked to play an encore which she happily did. Her music just made us want to dance! Many many thanks Edina and we would happily recommend her to anyone who wants Spanish guitar."

"B & The Hornets quite frankly made our evening. It was very easy to organize timings with them in the run up to our event, and they were very accommodating on the evening regarding their sets and their performances. Entirely professional, they were fully prepared regarding their own equipment. The performance was phenomenal and they were able to provide just the right atmosphere for the event. Working both as a full quartet and as a smaller group, they truly showed how capable they were as entertainers. You will not be disappointed with them."
