Fabulous! Ruby has a beautiful voice, she sang all the songs we requested including lot of Caro emerald ,and she learnt some new ones that we had requested for the 60 th birthday party .

Ruby was very good with communication prior to the party and tailored the music to our request.

She was popular with our guests ages ranging from 2_90.

We would definitely recommend Vintage Ruby.

What kind of events do you usually serve?
I sing at all kinds of events, including private events such as weddings, christenings, anniversaries and birthdays and public and community events like street parties and tea parties. I also sing at bars, restaurants and hotels. Many of my bookings are for vintage themed events and I can dress to fit in with the theme, such as a Great Gatsby wedding, 1940s wartime event or 1950s Rock 'n' Roll party. I also sing at corporate events such as Christmas parties.

Do you have your own PA and lighting?
Yes I have three different PA systems: small, medium and large which caters for small venues like care homes to large venues for weddings. They are all high quality PA systems-RCF speakers for the medium and large PAs and a Shure SM58 microphone and the vintage style 'Elvis' Shure blue and silver microphone for vintage events. My small and medium PA systems don't require electricity. I don't have my own lighting.

My favourite tune is not on your list. Will you be able to play it?
Yes, as long as I have some notice I can learn the song for you.
How many breaks do you take? How long are they?
I normally take a 10-15 minute break between sets. I can be flexible with my sets and breaks, e.g. if I'm singing at a wedding and I need to take longer breaks around the speeches etc then this will be fine.
