Ali was absolutely brilliant at our event, very responsive beforehand and made everything so easy on the night. Our guests absolutely loved him, I had so many people say how fantastic he was and how he really made the night. Would 100% recommend!! Thanks so much Ali
Ali was amazing, from his communication and his performance he went above and beyond our expectations and people are still talking about his performance.
He sang during canapé hour and dinner and I would highly recommend him to any party, event or wedding.
We have used singers from pop top before, but Ali is by far the best!
Ali is a very talented musician who I highly recommend. I received numerous compliments from different guests throughout the night. You won’t regret booking him!
Wow! What an amazing afternoon we had thanks to Ali, he was awesome the music was exactly what we wanted for our small wedding and the whole experience was fantastic, Ali was brilliant with last minute requests and made it completely stress free from start to finish.
Couldn't recommend enough!!
We had a wonderful night for my wife’s 40th party, and without doubt Ali made the party for us all. We had 2 sets of 45 mins, all the songs were well thought out and Ali has a great voice.we had a real mix of ages in our group, and everyone kept telling us just how good Ali had been. I would definitely ask Ali to do another performance for us at our next party. Ali, thanks again mate
WOW!!!Through Poptop found Ali and booked him for my partners 50th. Due to Covid-19 the event had to be rearranged 4 times. This, for Ali, was never an issue and always replied promptly.
Finally the event went ahead on the 11th September 21. Ali turned up nice and early to set up and get a feel of the people and what type of atmosphere he needed to create He had people off their chairs and on the dance floor within a couple songs and ensured the place was rocking for the evening. He impressed everyone at the event.
A real professional!!!!
Ali was fantastic and completely beyond our expectations for our wedding reception.
From when we first booked him right through to the end his communication was 10/10 which really does take a weight off your shoulders.
As soon as our guests arrived they were already blown away with his sound and brilliant voice.
The venue liked him so much they asked for his details so did other guests.
I can not stress enough how this made our day and I'm sure he will light up any function or venue.
Brilliant
Thank you Ali for making my birthday party such a special occasion. My guests and I simply loved you, you really made the party. A great mix and range of songs, beautiful voice and beautiful playing. You were extremely professional so made the whole experience very easy and stress free. It was a pleasure to meet you, I hope if the occasion arises you will come back and play again. Thank you.
Ali was amazing! He really made my baby shower the best day! His voice is 👌🏻 Everyone complimented him and all sung along and enjoyed his choice of songs. I would highly recommend and would 100% use him again. Probably for babies 1st birthday party. Thank you so much for making our day super special.
Highly recommend Ali. He recently played at my birthday event and was brilliant. Played all songs we asked for and created a really good vibe
Ali played last night for my 50th birthday party. He was superb - played all the songs we wanted, played and sang beautifully and really got the crowd going. Really good to work with and strongly recommended.
Ali played at our wedding reception at the Tower of London - he was brilliant! Great set of songs, great voice and volume, just helped us create the relaxed ambiance we hoped for - we highly recommend him and would use him again, a lovely guy to, great communication in the lead up to the event and no dramas - all perfect - thank you Ali.
Ali was the best at our reception drinks and canapés for our outside wedding! He had such a lovely voice and played the guitar wonderfully.
Ali had so many songs to choose from that we couldn’t narrow it down to favourites for our 90 minute slot we chose, so asked Ali to decide based on the guests and chose some great songs! It really topped our wedding off having a singer so if you are considering booking Ali, don’t hesitate and do it!!
Ali has such good communication throughout and really pleased we had him. Thank you 🙂 Natalie and Ian
Was so pleased with Ali’s performance at my daughters 30th bbq party. He played great music which gave the party a great atmosphere. Really nice guy.
Definitely recommend.
"I would highly recommend Ali for any event. He sang at my birthday and was brilliant.
He has a great repertoire / playlist that appeals to all ages and is a genuine nice guy. I would very happily book him again in the future."
I had the most lovely evening and Ali was incredible, he brought the right vibe to the party and his voice was pure gold. Ali is so talented and he felt like a friend the minute he came to the house. Ali performed for three hours and my friends and family were blown away. My requests were all played and would readily rebook for another evenings entertainment.
