"Devon Duo are AMAZING! We seriously can not recommend them highly enough - they played at our wedding on 3.9.16; it absolutely poured with rain during our ceremony (yes outdoor ceremony..) at which they were playing us down the aisle, but they were so completely un-phased at the last minute dash for cover, playing all the songs we requested. In the evening, they returned to play for our after-party in a high top tipi - and had every single one of our guests dancing, smiling and having a brilliant time! The rain had caused some electrical difficulties, but again, they took to it like absolute pros until the issue was sorted. They are just so talented and their songs went down a storm, with our guests even asking for a on core (which they kindly did!). They played a mix of up-beat folksy / 50s rock songs, every single one of which was a massive crowd pleaser. Everyone has been commenting on how amazing they were and how much fun they had! 'Best wedding band ever' was a common review... thanks SO much guys! Matthew & Beth xx Book them, book them NOW!"

"I recently booked Rory through Last Minute Musicians for a Valentine's Day event in our corporate building reception, specifically for his saxophone performance. Rory pleasantly surprised us with an additional performance on the flute, adding an extra layer of charm to the occasion. Sarah-Jane Morris's team efficiently managed the communication and follow-up, ensuring a seamless experience. From start to finish, Rory's professionalism and talent shone through, leaving a lasting impression on everyone present. I wholeheartedly recommend Rory for any event requiring exceptional musical talent. His professionalism, versatility, and dedication make him a standout choice. Thank you, Rory, for making our event truly unforgettable."

Hi Deniece, Thank you very much for your feedback for Rory on 14/02/2024. I am delighted that you were happy with the music, and your testament is very much appreciated! Thanks also for taking the time to send through the videos, looks like WeTransfer worked a treat! I would like to once again thank you for the opportunity, and I send you my warmest wishes. All the best, Rory

"I have seen a few tribute bands in my day but I admit that The Fab 5 really did impress me! First of all, let me say that The Fab 5 are not your average Beatles tribute band – no costumes, no wigs (well, the bass player was sporting one) and they didn’t play just the most well-known Beatles songs. Musically, that was so nice and refreshing. This is a band that plays Beatles songs because they like, no, LOVE, Beatles songs – no gimmicks, no tricks – just pure, unadulterated fun."

"Thank you Ryan and Tracy for a fantastic duo in the afternoon for our celebrations, you provided a great atmosphere for our garden party and thank you to the rest of the band for the full ensemble in the evening, everyone there were very impressed with the choice of songs and the professional sound from the whole band. We would definitely call upon your talents another time! All the best for the future of the band."

"All ages were able to take part" "Wraggle Taggle Ceilidh Band performed at The Walker Ground in Southgate for a Charity Fundraiser and the night was a great success (Saturday 11th March 2023 Southgate Cricket, Hockey & Squash Rackets Club, 175 Waterfall Road, Southgate, London, N14 7JZ) The caller was fab and engaged with the crowd to get everyone up and dancing. People of all ages were able to take part and were delighted with the live music. There was great communication with Mick before, during and after the event itself. We would highly recommend Wraggle Taggle Ceilidh Band and look forward to having them at events at The Walker Ground in future...." "...Hi Mick, I just wanted to email to say thanks for the event here on Saturday night. It was so much fun and I am delighted with how the night went. Hopefully you all enjoyed it too !

"We booked The Dizzy Brasscals to play at our wedding reception and could not have been more happy with the decision. We found them online and watched/listened to examples of their work before getting in touch. Dave was quick to respond and helpful throughout the whole process. The band were very open to tailoring the music towards our more specific requests when it came to genre whilst also keeping the crowd and dance floor very happy and filled. The lighting and PA was also very professional. Dave stayed after the band finished to DJ in the evening which was also great, requesting our playlists ahead of the evening which he stuck to when suitable. I would highly recommend the band and Dave as a DJ for weddings/events, it really made the reception go so well and lots of guests kept telling us they loved them. Also very reasonable for the service provided. Thanks again Dave and the band!"

"WOWSERS!!!! Abbas Angels absolutely made our party - they were incredible! The highlight of the night for sure. The crowd were dancing and singing and everyone has said how much fun it was. It was a pleasure to deal with Louise and all the performers, who were professional, lovely and a joy! Already busy planning next event so we get to do it all again. Cannot recommend them highly enough - from a very happy dancing queen... you were all incredible - can't wait to get in touch for next event - you are AWESOME!!! X"

"We were delighted to have All That Jazz perform at Sanjay’s birthday party – they were absolutely amazing and made the evening very special for us.

"Tim Barton played at my 60th Birthday party three years ago at the same venue. Once again he was superb, taking us back through the ages of pop and rock and providing a great soundtrack to the evening. Tim is not only a great musician but a true professional and what's more it is plainly obvious that he loves playing guitar. Hire Tim for any occasion and you are already half way to having a great time; the rest is up to you. "

"Having seen Albert and Ollie at a number of events at our local pub we booked them for our wedding. From start to finish everyone was on the dance floor enjoying both the selection of songs and the quality of the live music. Very professional and excellent value. Would highly recommend."

"This 5 star rated musical set up was incredible. I chose them deliberately as Josh and Nora were contemporary. They are flexible and will meet client needs. They were exceptional from booking to the event itself. Put simply, ordinary, yet incredibly talented lovely professional humans with the same wish as you. They will guarantee you a good time. In fact it’s better than good, it’s awesome. They will work with you. They will liaise with you and they will show you talent, musical mixology and DJ styling, producing floorfiller after floorfiller. The vocals are second to none from Nora, the energy she evokes, the same. Daisy, the saxophonist, is totally brilliant. My 50th party guests were incredibly complimentary about their energy, their drive and willingness to give you the time of your life. I was overwhelmed. If you don't believe me, book them to witness an incredible evening of dancing, partying and the feeling of - wow- what just happened! Highly recommend. Thank you Josh, Nora and Daisy for incredible sounds, vibes and an atmosphere like no other. I cannot wait for another event to secure you again. All the best, Nigel. (A very happy customer)"

"Above and beyond expectations. I gave them a clear brief and they performed superbly to 44 of my 80th birthday party lunch guests. Ready to start well before the allotted time. Excellent group and everyone enjoyed their eclectic mix of jazz. We would certainly recommend them and would use them again willingly. "
