"I’ve booked Fifi through lastminutemusicians.com and I’m glad I did! She was quick to respond to my enquiry and available when it came to organise the details. The evening went great as she walked around playing to all our guests and even taking song requests. All in all very professional with a touch of French “je ne sais quoi”. I hope we can work again together in the future!"

"Absolutely brilliant. These guys were from the beginning to the end. Everyone loved them playing and would have kept them longer had they not had another booking that evening. Everyone commented on how lovely and engaging they were in conversations along side the music"

"Yuri Sabatini is a wonderful tenor. His voice is captivating. What makes him special is his gift to combine his beautiful voice with his full sincere emotional expression in each aria or song he performs. I have engaged Yuri for many events . Yuri makes every event special and the audience loves him."

"We stumbled across Darren Shaw while we were away for Christmas in Blackpool. This young man was one of a number of entertainers who were booked to entertain us and another 40 guests at the wonderful family run hotel that we return to every time we visit Blackpool. Now, everybody knows what to expect from hotel entertainers, a bit of Elvis, mostly 50's and 60's songs, voices that are just flat enough to irritate without actually forcing you to get up and walk out, generally very average. Well not Darren Shaw. Darren got the longest and loudest applause you have ever heard forty something people making, he took the roof off, and deservedly so. Quite what he is doing on the hotel circuit I really don't know. You have never in your life heard anyone professional or otherwise with a voice like this. His set started with what you would expect, a couple of Kenny Rogers songs, good voice, bang on the notes very deep and easy to listen to and then the intro started for a well known Dusty Springfield song. I expected a joke of some kind, but what I didn't expect was a rendition of "You Don't Have To Say you Love Me", so perfect that I truly believed that he was miming to the original track. I suppose shock was my first reaction, desperately trying to catch him miming and show that this voice was not coming from Darren. I think everyone else was as shocked as I was. The reception this song got was rapturous at which point he actually asked if anyone thought he was miming and being me I just had to say something. He then proceeded to sing falsetto without any backing and sang both parts of "You're The One That I Want" the John Travolta and Olivia Newton John song from Grease. I was absolutely astounded. Darren Shaw can sing female vocals better than any cabaret singer I have heard. His first set had to be cut short while we were still coming to terms with what we had heard but an hour later he returned to do another 30 minutes or so. During this set we went from Tom Jones " Delilah", very reasonable, to Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On" which was truly astonishing. Ask yourself, have you ever heard anyone else trying to imitate Celine Dion ?, because I haven't. They won't do it simply because they can't, but Darren Shaw can. This was followed by the classic karaoke song "My Way" which thankfully I was able to record on video camera. I have heard plenty of people singing this, from Sinatra and Presley, to the Sex Pistols, and everyone in between. Everyone sings this, and it is always the most popular song in any karaoke competition. No one else sings it like this. The only version I have ever heard that was better than Darren Shaw's was by Sinatra himself. This was better than any version I have heard elsewhere, professional or not, and the applause was thunderous. Darren finished up with an Elvis song that was every bit as good as the original, and I can say that it was a real privilege to be there that night and see a truly awesome performance from a young man with a unique and remarkable talent. After the show Darren was happy to spend nearly an hour talking to the guests and I was lucky enough to be able to have a chat to him. Only 33 but on stage for 15 years he has no appreciation of his own talent. Very down to earth and easy to talk to he told me that he has a repertoire of over 4000 songs so far and due to professional jealousy he has found it necessary to change his set completely at the last moment on a number of occasions but has been able to do this without any difficulty. He has faced hostility in some quarters as the shock that his exquisite female vocals generate doesn't always manifest itself appreciatively. This horrifies me, as his voice is truly unique and deserves a great deal more exposure. Darren has his own website which is well worth a visit, and as you will see on there he has a stage show in Kelso coming up as well as plenty of other bookings. If you get the chance don't miss his show. Any TV producers looking for talent, anyone looking for a show that will have an audience crying out for more, don't look any further than Darren Shaw, he is sensational."

"I cannot rate Lisa higher than 10/10, but I will do my best to justify why this should be possible. To begin with Lisa was a delight to deal with before, during and after the Wedding. Left largely to her own devices on the day, she was a complete professional and delivered all that we asked for and more. She was booked to perform to welcome guests to the Ceremony, during the Ceremony and throughout the Wedding Breakfast and did so exquisitely. We could not have made a more perfect choice of performer. Lisa is truly gifted, not only as an outstanding harpist, musician, songwriter and musical arranger, but she also has a tone to her voice that oozes pure quality, whatever the genre of music. Her performance of 'At Last' during the Ceremony was without question the best rendition of this much reproduced number that I have ever heard, including by Etta James. It was so good it caused a brief pause in everyone's joy for the married couple, as they went to sign the Register, whilst they registered the stunning sound, and this was captured perfectly on the video. Lisa performed a wide range of music equally well, including some traditional Irish music and other requests and was top class throughout. I lost count of how many guests complimented the beauty of her performances from start to finish and the fact that she set the perfect mood for a perfect day. It is certainly a sentiment that I echo loudly and I will forever remember and be grateful for the massive contribution that Lisa made to the happiest day of my daughter's life, and to one of my own."

"Chelsie was amazing from the get go, so friendly and helpful! She answered the 101 questions i had without any complaints! She was the most amazing singer on our wedding day and couldn't have hoped for more! She even gave me a hand warmer when she noticed I was freezing during the photos! She went absolutely above and beyond! Highly highly recommend!"

"I booked Tony as an alternative to a traditional disco for my parents anniversary party, what a gentleman, so helpful, great communication from start to finish. His act is amazing, with such a wide range of songs that everyone enjoyed. I had so many people come up to me to say how much they enjoyed his show. I can’t recommend Tony highly enough. "

"Zoë played at our anniversary garden party, and it was fabulous. Her version of our favourite songs were brilliant! We enjoyed listening to her so much. We danced in the garden with the kids and felt overwhelmed by how amazing it was. I would highly recommend Zoë for any event. She is very talented and we have such wonderful memories of our afternoon. Zoë was very responsive and easy to deal with her. Can’t wait to book her again for another celebration. "

"We booked Laura after meeting on zoom and listening to her singing online. Instantly me and my sister loved her warm personality and I knew she’d be perfect for our mum’s party. She was in touch to check the running of the night, ask for song choices etc and was so organised. On the night she was incredible and everyone commented on how fab her voice was, her mix of songs got everyone up dancing and I would not hesitate to recommend her. She was amazing! Thanks for making the night so special Laura. "
