Booked for Wedding

We required a guitarist for an outdoor wedding this May and found Romeo. He was excellent, and the guests commented how nicely he was playing. It gave some ambience to the walk down the aisle as well as our reception drinks in the garden. He has been highly professional, reliable, and commincated well throughout. Thanks Romeo for making our day!

Booked for Wedding

Greg was polite, friendly and professional. He was responsive to messages and organised which made me feel less anxious about my event, knowing he had it in hand. He provided fantastic music before and after our ceremony and I wouldn't hesitate to have Greg sing again at a future event. Highly recommended.

"Ruby was fantastic, our clients were so pleased. We had a last minute request for a harpist, I am so glad she was able to juggle he plans for us at short notice. She confirmed all information with us and checked out how to reach our Hotel. Very professional with arrangements and that is a dream as an event planner. I should also mention that the music was delightful."

"Matt is a very good piper and was fabulous at my Dads funeral. He is very professional and respectful. Lots of people expressed how good he was and I would definitely use him again and highly recommend him. He put that extra special touch into what was a very sad day for our family. Thanks again Matt you gave my dads send off that very special touch Best wishes Christine Savage"

Booked for Wedding

"We asked Dan to take care of all the music for our rural Cumbrian wedding in late July. Dan played a number of acoustic sets throughout the day/evening and ensured that music was playing via his PA system during any intervals. Dans acoustic sets were brilliant. We honestly couldn’t have been happier with how it went and just about every one of our guests commented on how good Dan was. He flexed timings to suit what was going on (i.e toasts, food, bonfire, etc), learnt a number of songs we wanted playing on the day (inc. the first dance) and I believe even took a couple of requests on the night. His communication throughout was great and we’d have no hesitation in recomending him for your next event. Thanks again Dan - much appreciated."

Booked for Corporate Function

"Seam arrived in plenty of time and was very affable and friendly. He was very accommodating for the shortcomings of the sound equipment on the day, and the quick turn round of acts, which meant we couldn't do a full sound check before he started. He was very easy to listen to and gave a very good performance. I would recommend him to anyone."

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
