"We booked The Fireflies for our wedding and they were absolutely AMAZING! Ian kept in touch with us regularly ahead of the wedding and we talked to him about music/ vibe which I really appreciated. His and the bands energy on the night was incredible and it really added to the whole reception experience. Absolutely brilliant - thank you so much!"

"Men In Blue were a fantastic choice for our birthday celebration. They have an extensive repertoire, played everything on their suggested play list plus more and had the whole room on the dance floor by the end of the evening. I would recommend them 100% "

"We absolutely loved The Capriccio Quartet for our recent wedding. Their repertoire is very varied, they arrived early and started playing on time. It was a magical moment when they played Canon in D as I walked down the aisle, seamlessly switching to Elton John 'Your Song' and Snow Patrol as we signed the register. Everyone commented on how the music added so much to the atmosphere. They were absolute professionals and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who wanted a really varied mix of modern and classical for their wedding! Thanks so much! "

"We recently hosted a special joint celebration for my parents’ 40th wedding anniversary and our recent wedding, and we had the pleasure of having Goldsworth Gerry perform at our event. They were absolutely brilliant! From the moment they started playing, they brought an incredible energy that set the perfect tone for the night. Their set list was a fantastic mix that catered to everyone, getting guests of all ages up on their feet and dancing. The band’s musicianship was top-notch with excellent sound and equipment, and their performance added so much joy to an already special day. We couldn’t have asked for a better band to make our celebration unforgettable. Highly recommend Goldsworth Gerry for any event where you want to create lasting memories and have a great time!"

"The musician was really talented however did not play the music requested so killed the entire vibe of the party. It was a party and we requested upbeat music alongside DJ but she used her own speaker and mellowed tunes... everyone obviously left the dance floor at this point and had to remind her of the request. She struggled with our requirements despite us being very specific on booking and even noted specific times on contract booking, did not fulfil contract and waste of £550"

Dear Hayley Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent event. I take all reviews seriously, as they help me improve my services, and I appreciate the opportunity to address some inaccuracies in your comments. The full fee you paid was £459, I understand that you felt the music selection did not align with the upbeat atmosphere you envisioned. However, I want to clarify that I arrived well-prepared with a curated playlist that included the specific tracks you requested, such as "Rebel Music" and "Ibiza Classics." Additionally, during our initial conversation, I offered to incorporate lively pop songs like "Havana," "Rather Be," and "Cheerleader" to enhance the party vibe. I left out your request to play Andrew Lloyd Webber/Starlight Express as I felt it didn’t align with the style of your event. Regarding the DJ sound levels, these were extremely loud throughout. I strive to maintain an enjoyable volume throughout my performances. While you noted that the dance floor, it was empty upon my arrival and throughout the ibiza classics with DJ last 30 minute set. I appreciated the positive feedback from many guests which indicates we’re enjoying my performances. As the event progressed, I was attentive to your requests, including the unexpected addition of a dhol drummer for the second set. I performed the "Morni" provided the Bollywood track to the DJ and performed alongside the DJ and which successfully energised the dance floor. I also addressed the issue with my electric violin volume being turned down by DJ immediately after he received feedback from guest complaining he couldn’t hear it! The booking was to perform 3x 30 minute sets I stayed on the dance floor except two 15 minute breaks and performed throughout the 2 hour duration. I made repeated requests to the DJ to play "Ibiza Classics," in line with your preferences, and I took swift action to address all requests throughout the night. The DJ consistently played track’s that were impossible for a violinist to play over such as Milkshake by Kelis. My goal is always to create memorable experiences for my clients, and I have consistently received positive feedback for over 20 years !

"When you organise a party it's always a worry that you get the band right and people genuinely enjoy themselves. Thank you so much The Road Runners for all the compliments that I received about how great YOU are! We had a fantastic evening and even the non-dancers were very enthused about your set. Your lead singer has an amazing ability yo cross genres and ranges and dis so incredibly well. If I have anything else that needs a band, I'm coming to you!"

"Live music makes a good party into a fabulous party and this was no exception. It was awesome. Harriet and Benn arrived early to set up their equipment and get everything organised, making sure we were happy with the volume. They are phenomenally talented and the song choice was just class. We danced all afternoon and had a great time singing along. They played don’t stop believin by Journey which they had practised especially for the birthday boy. Will definitely book them again and will highly recommended them. And best of all, they are such lovely people and clearly enjoy what they do. A stunning choice for any event. "
