"I have heard Ben play the piano on many occasions in different settings - formal and informal. He adapts his playing quite brilliantly to suit the nature of a particular event, never becoming overpowering or intrusive but appealing to the ear in the most inventive way."

"We hired Sam to play the accordion at my uncles 90th birthday. Sam arrived early and we discussed the plan for the session. Sam has a warming personality and was very flexible in supporting the order of songs to be played. We had a great sing-along and Sam was very entertaining. I would highly recommend Sam"

"If you need an accordion player at your event then look no further. Jason was perfect. It was my mother-in-law's birthday party at a hotel in Bournemouth with 30 plus guests. Jason's playlist, as requested (40's to 80's), was excellent. Great musician and was able to adapt and play requests and engaged with everyone. Everyone loved him including the toddler great grandchildren. Highly recommended and huge thankyou Jason. will seek you out for the next one."

"We were put in touch with Lee through his agency and he immediately got in touch to establish what our event was, how many attending and the type of piano pieces we would like to hear. We were having a family party for 18 people at a rental house. It was my parents joint 90th birthday Lee arrived on time and played fantastically well for an hour and a half. I’m convinced he would have gone on longer but dinner was to be served. The variety of his catalogue was fantastic and he appealed to all the family. Initially he played a variety of pieces from his repertoire. Then requests starting coming in and he played virtually all of them by ear. What turned out to be one or two requests quickly turned in a request show and Lee’s ability to hear a song/ piece in his head play it was breathtaking. His improvisation was quite astonishing. If you are thinking of hiring a pianist for an event look no further. He was simply amazing. One really emotional performance and a good guy to boot!! "

"What playing! Here was technical virtuosity and musical colour illustrating the diversity of mood which these unusual pictures inspired. This brought to a dramatic conclusion a superb recital that was rich in diversity, enabling us to glimpse the variety of interpretative skills which John possesses. We hope to hear him again very soon."

"Ben played at my 50th Birthday party for around 100 guests. He played three sets plus background music in between. He was extremely accommodating and flexible. We sent a couple of play lists as we did a singalong and a pass the parcel which he led and moved set times around to accommodate things. Lots of compliments from our guests regarding his music. We have used Ben at a number of events and he is always excellent, he is a skilled musician and highly professional "

"Hi Lynden, You were just incredible at our evening reception – that sound!! You really set the tone for the evening and people couldn’t stop talking about the music. It meant so much to us to have something live and soulful after all the stress of planning. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Love, Tasha & Liam"

"Lisa played during our wedding ceremony and was one of the highlights of our very special day. We have received so many messages from friends and family since the big day complimenting her music. We provided a playlist to Lisa, some of which would not be traditional wedding tunes, but she played everything we requested and it was note perfect. Lisa's professionalism was very evident and was able to provide some much appreciated advice and guidance in relation to the music for the ceremony. We are delighted that she was a part of our big day and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and professional artist for any occasion. Tim & Julie"
