"We booked a trio (piano, violin and cello) to play upbeat classical and some modern music at my mother's 80th birthday dinner/party in the local pub. Silja and the 2 other musicians were utterly professional from start to finish - both when organising the event and on the actual day. The violin and cello played outside as it was nice weather while guests enjoyed drinks and canapes, and then the piano was added to the mix when we moved indoors for the dinner. Nothing was too much trouble. Silja and co were very accommodating, fitting in with speeches and songs - and even composed and played a family birthday tune that we asked them to play! I would definitely recommend Rigaudon Music for this type of event and would have no hesitation in booking them again! Thank you for helping to make our event so special."

"Ian and Tania are a lovely couple, they put themselves out to make our evening go off well. They arrived at our venue in plenty of time to enable them to set up and be ready to make a punctual start. They certainly earned their money as they played virtually non-stop throughout the evening, just stopping for a short time while the buffet was open. Their songs/music was ideal for our party they are very talented as on one occasion, they played a song for us which they were not familiar with but no one would ever have guessed. A few of our guests asked us how we had come across them, because they were so good, and i know that a few people asked Ian and Tania for their business cards. I would definately recommend them to friends. Thank you very much Ian and Tania for a lovely evening."

Hi Chris & Bob Hope you are well and thank you so much for you fantastic review left here on LMM. This was way above what we were expecting and is really kind of you to do this and so glad you were happy with our performance. I hope you have finally recovered from the weekend and hopefully one day look forward to meeting you again in the future. You are a very special couple, thank you again. Kindest regards Ian & Tania.

"Juniper were perfect for our drinks reception. My father-in-law loved the double bass ! Excellent and clear communication and they even arrived 15 minutes earlier to help make sure there was time for our catering! 5 stars "

"I wish to thank you for your recommendation of Rory to perform with Holly (percussion & vocals) & Julian (guitar) in a Latin jazz trio for my wife's special birthday a couple of weekends ago. They were brilliant. A great musical backdrop to a very successful garden party and a real hit with all our guests. We will recommend them without hesitation. Thank you again.”"

"Blue Jewel Ceilidh band were absolutely brilliant! They played for our wedding and had everyone up on the dance floor all night! The music was wonderful and the calling clear and encouraging for those of us with two left feet! I also found all the communication leading up to the wedding really quick and helpful. Would recommend! "

"It was such a special day for us and Duncan playing our favourite songs during the ceremony helped create the perfect atmosphere. In the run up to the wedding his communication was excellent and he certainly settled our nerves thanks to his confident, friendly manner. The songs we chose weren't typical of wedding ceremonies but he played them beautifully. He was smart, punctual and very professional. We will definitely book him for future events and would recommend him to anyone. "

"Hats off to The Line Up. They provided a storming set for our wedding, and although we were down to just a few of us at the end (midweek wedding, people gotta work), we had a fantastic evening and the boys rocked it. Many thanks to The Line Up. "

"I booked Natalie to perform solo cello for a surprise party - she played beautifully and made the event feel so elevated and special. I would absolutely recommend SE strings and would happily book again for future events!"

"PHENOMENAL!!! Absolutely PHENOMENAL!!! Martin is a legend. First heard him playing in Lincoln and booked him and sooo sooo pleased we did. Brilliant at communicating with us, he has a great repertoire of songs to choose from. He even managed to learn a song we wanted that wasn’t on his list. It was brilliant!! I really can’t recommend him highly enough. Seriously talented. Thank you for making a great day amazing and everyone has been saying how great you were. Thank you from us and everyone that was there. "
