"We hired 4 piece band Carousel for our small wedding in September. They were absolutely awesome and really slick. They pulled off every song perfectly and were nice decent blokes. I will recommend these guys to anyone looking to book a band. 10/10 first class. RJ "

"I booked Ian and the band for a surprise 30th birthday. The communication leading up to the event was fantastic, Ian couldn’t do enough to make sure everything was clear, explain how things would work and was even extra accommodating when I decided to change the venue a couple of times. The band learnt a special song, managed all the guests so the surprise was a success and made the atmosphere so positive and energetic for the whole night, always adding personal touches to make us all feel really special. Everything about booking and the lead up to the event was made so easy and enjoyable, and the night couldn’t have gone better. The band are happy to work with any space to make the experience the best it can be, as well as accommodating music choices, requests where possible and getting involved in bespoke elements of events and I couldn’t recommend them highly enough!! Thank you!!!"

"We had our wedding reception some months after the wedding to allow for school holidays. People had braved some horrible Friday travel to get there, it was very hot ..... and then ........ the band started! The kids stopped playing and all wanted to dance, people of all ages got up and everyone had a smile on their faces. Blue Jewel simply made our evening. Steve, deputising as caller was exceptional creating such a rapport, remembering names and full of gentle banter! Oh and soooo patient with us all. We had ages from 6 to 85 on the floor having fun. We can't really praise Blue Jewel enough - except to give our heartfelt thanks! Book Them NOW don't miss out!!!"

"Definitely the best band we've ever heard play at a wedding! Can we say that about our own reception?! I think so! Fresh Grooves were so SO good, they totally blew us away and our family and friends were loving it too. Great songs and really good performers. We would definitely recommend them!"

"In February 2020, our guests were treated to the smooth sounds of top-rated UK saxophonist Rory. A perfectly executed combination of contemporary Jazz, alongside well-loved modern classics, from Miles Davies and Nina Simone to Amy Winehouse and Gnarls Barley. A heady mix of live music and well-loved classics!"

"Kindred Spirit Duo are very entertaining and always guarantee to lift your spirits with their lively and unique style of folk/rock music. Elaine's guitar playing is excellent and she has a beautifully melodic voice. Martin's violin playing is exhilarating & energizing. Together they play some great cover versions and originals. They are guaranteed to get you up on your feet dancing and singing along to their tunes! "
