Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"We booked Nigel for our wedding at Plum Park Manor on 31st August after seeing him play at one of their open days. We originally booked for just the ceremony, but then added the drinks reception too. Just wow! I don’t think I have ever met anyone so talented, when he sent his repertoire over I was amazed at how many songs he knew how to play by heart 😳. The communication, booking and song choosing process was great. Nigel even filmed me walking down the aisle with him playing which I am forever grateful as this is something I will treasure forever! We asked if he could play some Oasis on the day as our guests were gutted they missed out on tickets 🤣 and this was no problem at all. Thank you so much Nigel you are a star! 🤩 100% recommend!"

"Mark’s music wrapped our celebration dinner in a happy cocoon of elegance and joyful memories . When my Dad started singing along to his favourite old songs I knew Mark was a winner. His remarkable versatility made the evening so vibrant with achingly beautiful classical pieces and romantic ballads and playful jazz and movie music favourites. Mark is charming and friendly and fun. My advice to myself next time is split the budget between chef and musician. Live music ? ? makes your heart soar. Thankyou Mark - You lifted our dinner out of the ordinary. We can’t wait to invite you back again. "

"Chris played at our wedding on 03 August and did an amazing job. I had asked him secretly if he could play a special piece for when I walked down the aisle, with some minor modifications, and he agreed without hesitation. On the day, Chris played beautifully! He managed to either extend the piece or fade it out just perfectly as I reached the top of the aisle--I was too nervous to notice which. The rest of the day was also fantastic with Chris playing throughout dinner. We didn't have any specific requests and yet weren't disappointed in the music selection. Overall, 10/10 would recommend booking Chris for special events."

"We would like to thank the James Bond Orchestra for having made our wedding so special. Absolutely everybody commented on how great the bands were and that you were the best bands they had ever heard. Alex and I could not stop smiling from the moment you started to play and I had goose-bumps all over my body. It was just such a great night and thank you again. Alex is waiting to hear about a possible date for his company dinner dance. Rest assured when this date is known we will contact you.

In the mean time we hope to see you in the Jazz Cafe which is our local venue and we believe you already played there in the past. Thank you so much!!!"

"After deciding I really wanted a band as a gift to play for my 30th, I did some browsing. I was then recommended R45 by another band to perform for my 30th Birthday! I then got in touch with Michael, who was so accommodating and even juggled things around to be able to play for us. We then went to watch them a month before at The Deepings Caravan Park and there 2 x sets were absolutely brilliant. They had everyone on they're feet. We then spoke to Michael after they had finished and he couldn’t be more happy to help and guide us with our night. After a month of excitement and seeing everything come together, the group arrived and set up without a problem. They all wished me a happy birthday when I walked in and were smiley and bubbly. They fitted in, like they were part of the party. I also asked if we could move things slightly earlier then the original schedule and they were happy to do this for us! The Guys then got changed and looked amazing on stage and kicked off and had everyone on the dance floor! Michael, Jamie, Joe and Arty you are all so very talented and I feel very lucky to have you perform at my birthday. You were the absolute highlight of the night and gave me a birthday I certainly won’t forget! Not only are you all very talented your the most loveliest and enthusiastic guys! Everyone that attended, loved you guys and thought you were amazing! They pulled me up on stage and sang happy birthday to me and presented me with the most gorgeous gift and card - such a lovely and thoughtful thing to do!! Thankyou!! I honestly can’t thank you all enough, I can’t believe it’s already over and how quick the night went! I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on your gig dates and will come and see you perform!! I would highly recommend R45 to anyone looking for a talented, fun band to play for there occasion. They went above and beyond for us!! They certainly won’t disappoint and you’ll be on your feet in seconds! Thank you so much Michael, Jamie, Joe and Arty for everything!"

"What can I say? Bob is a fantastic singer! We hired him for our event in Kilpatrick-Fleming, and from the very start, his communication was outstanding—prompt, clear, and professional. Bob even went out of his way to learn my favourite song, 'Chicken Fried,' and he did a brilliant job with it. His versatility is what truly sets him apart. Whether you need a soft, romantic atmosphere or a fun, lively vibe, Bob is your man. He is a natural crowd-pleaser; we were throwing requests at him left, right, and centre, and he adapted effortlessly to every one. The feedback from our guests was 100% positive—everyone thoroughly enjoyed his performance. Thank you, Bob, for making our night so special. We’re already looking for an excuse to host another party just so we can book you again! Tony Pullen"

"If you'd like a professional piper for your wedding, I cannot rate Keith the Piper highly enough. Keith was wonderful and very, very accommodating. He arrived well ahead of time, immaculately turned out and extremely friendly and courteous. My husband and I had arranged a piper for our sons wedding as a surprise and Keith was wonderful playing along with us. There was a little bit of a hiccup whilst the newly weds signed the register and Keith stepped in immediately piping in the Church for the congregation. He really went above and beyond. Thank you Keith for adding the extra sparkle on the day. You look wonderful in the photos!"
