Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"Wow!! What can I say, The Man in the Blue Shades certainly knows how to get a party started! Absolutely fantastic from start to finish, interacted really well with all of our guests and had the whole house dancing and singing. Already thinking about when I can book again. Worth every penny, thank you! "

"We hired SaxSmith for my mums 90th birthday party, and it was fantastic. He played a variety of material- old and new and had us entertained all evening. Gill Davies, Lichfield."

"Claire performed at our wedding reception and helped to create exactly the kind of atmosphere we were looking to have. She was extremely professional and left us with very little to worry about or have to organise. The guests absolutely loved her music and had numerous rave reviews. Would 100% recommend Claire to anyone!"

"The Shakesters played at The Departure Lounge cafe for the cafes’ 10th anniversary and it couldn’t have been a better choice of bands. The weather was not on our side but the band managed to get everyone dancing and keep the atmosphere lively and fun. They have a unique style which fits the cafe perfectly. We’ll definitely be keeping the band in our minds for any future events."

"Dear Jessica, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your spectacular performance last night. I can’t tell you much everyone enjoyed it. You and your colleagues were absolutely fantastic and completely blew us away with your fantastic musicianship, energy, talents and stunning voice. You really made this day incredibly special for not only us but or family and friends. We can’t wait to listen to you guys again and hope to see you performing very soon. With our best wishes and all our thanks, James and Maciej"

"We visited Mappleborough Green Garden Centre today for lunch so that we could check out the live music Friday programme that we'd heard about. What a perfect afternoon! Christa was an amazing pianist as she was able to appeal to all ages with the massive range of music years that she covered...and some beautifully different arrangements of some well known tracks too! She even took time in her break to check out song requests from both Nanny and Grandad....and she squeezed in an Adele track for me and my hubbie at the end! Thanks Christa. It was lovely to meet you 😊 We'll be back to see you soon and wouldn't hesitate to recommend you for weddings or parties!! "

"Andy Charles is a very talented singer and guitarist. His songs really helped to create a fun and uplifting atmosphere at my birthday party and I have received many positive comment about since. I would recommend Andy for any event and particularly those where space may be limited."

"“ Professionalism , talent , attention to detail and a complete willingness to be flexible with the venue made the Vibettes a wonderful addition to our Coronation Celebrations. Not only do they sing beautifully but they totally immerse themselves in their role and literally transport you to another era. Our audience which included tots , teens and adults of all ages were enthralled from start to finish and the Vibettes created an afternoon fit for a King ” "

"We got married on 1st June 2024 & hired Enchanted Harpist as our harpist for the ceremony & drinks reception. From the very first contact to the wedding day itself, Enchanted Harpist was phenomenal. A lovely, warm person to communicate with & incredibly responsive to all queries. We felt she was excited as we were & was really keen to personalise the music set list for us. Her repertoire of songs is impressive - from classical, to Disney, to Studio Ghibli, to Irish, to popular/hit song covers etc. She was additionally happy to learn songs we requested & I cannot express just how much we - & our guests - enjoyed her incredible talent on the day! We were only sad we didn't get to experience more of her music on the day! 110% recommend if you are looking for a harpist for any occasion. Thank you Dorothy! <3"

"Tony and the gang, what a great night you gave us all. Great music, great appearance, just great all round entertainment. Clients are already asking when The Shakesters will be back. We will definitely be asking you back for an evening which is too good to miss. We highly recommend The Shakesters for a great selection of 60’s music."
