Joanne Majauskis29 Jul 2025

5 Stars – Laverne is an absolute gem! We had the incredible pleasure of having Laverne perform at our garden party, and she truly made the event! From the first note to the last song, she brought amazing energy, fun, and serious talent. Her voice is stunning, and she had the entire party up and dancing, she was the vibe we didn’t know we needed! Not only is she an amazing performer, but she’s also incredibly professional. Laverne brought and set up all her own equipment, handled everything seamlessly, and communicated clearly every step of the way. She made the whole process stress-free and enjoyable from start to finish. Beyond all that, she’s just a lovely, fun person to be around so easy to work with, so warm, and clearly passionate about what she does. If you’re thinking of booking Laverne for your event: do it. You’ll be so glad you did! We’re already planning another event just so we can have her back!

DJ Latif was incredible and knew exactly what to play to fit the vibe of the wedding party. Communication and flexibility 5/5. Would highly recommend for any occasion.

Michael was a wonderful addition to our daughter’s 21st birthday party. We chose jazz classics which perfectly set the mood for pre dinner drinks at an event for all ages. Great choice of classics and a can do attirude, we would hire Michael again tomorrow!

Duncan was amazing on the day, playing a wonderful guitar set for our wedding reception. He was polite, friendly and professional and I would highly recommend him to anyone thinking about hiring a musician for their event.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

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