Reviews of Matt Rayner: roaming musician and DJ

Matt sang at our ceremony and cocktail hour, and he really helped set the perfect mood for the day. He was absolutely amazing, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better to provide the music for such a special occasion.

Before the wedding, we had a lovely conversation with Matt where we were able to choose some of our favourite songs from his playlist. He was also incredibly kind enough to learn two additional songs specifically for my aisle entry and exit, which I am exceptionally grateful for. It made those moments even more personal and special.

Matt has such a beautiful voice, and our guests commented on how fantastic he was throughout the day. He was professional, friendly and so easy to work with, and he really understood the atmosphere we wanted to create.

We would highly recommend Matt to anyone looking for live music for their wedding or special occasion. He was a huge part of making our day so memorable, and we are so glad we chose him!

Was brilliant at the event we attended! Definitely recommend!

Matt was the DJ at a property networking event I attended, and he was brilliant throughout. His song choices, timing and versatility were second to none and he had a great feel for the room and knew exactly how to keep the atmosphere going. His friendly and professional vibe really brought a positive energy to the event. I’d definitely recommend Matt to anyone looking for a talented and versatile DJ for any type of function.

I booked Matt for my 30th birthday party, which was country themed, and he was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. He really can do it all!

He started off playing live country music, which was perfect for the theme, and then moved into a DJ set later in the evening. I gave him a few requests beforehand and he played them, but also did a great job of reading the crowd and choosing music that suited the vibe on the night.

Matt turned up well in advance, got everything set up without any fuss, and even used lighting that matched the decor, which was a really nice touch. He also got involved with the guests and helped create such a fun atmosphere.

Having the live music and DJ set from the same person worked so well and meant everything flowed really naturally throughout the night. He was professional, friendly and just great fun to have there.

Would 100% recommend Matt for any party or event!

Thanks to Matt for a fabulous set - it really lifted this networking event and he had us all singing along! A very talented, flexible and impressive performer - with conversation, confidence and charm to boot. I can highly recommend. 👏🏻

Matt was singing at an event I attended. I really enjoyed it, my daughter is looking for a singer for her wedding and I have suggested she checks out Matt's website!

Matt did a fabulous job at our 'BBQ and Business Banter' event ... if there was a Golden Buzzer...!

Matt played his guitar and sang at a networking BBQ. He was absolutely amazing at how he did both and engaged with the audience. Fully recommend his services.

Oh what a performance at a Business BBQ lunch today
Perfect sound vocals and of course personality
Great work as ever Matt - looking forward to the next one!

Matt was a main part of our wedding entertainment. He was both DJ and MC. He is very professional and able to 'read the room' playing tunes to suit those on the dancefloor. He is professional, very presentable and able to communicate with all ages. He worked well with other entertainers to make our reception party great and one to remember. We are happy to recommend Matt for any future celebrations or gatherings and will happily engage him again. Thank you Matt.

Matt was our DJ for a private party and he was absolutely fantastic! He kept the dance floor full all evening and created an amazing atmosphere. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for not only a musical performer but also a DJ!

Matt was fantastic from start to finish! He arrived with a smile on his face and kept the tunes flowing all night long — the dance floor was packed the whole evening! His setup looked amazing, and when the weather turned, he adapted straight away by putting up a gazebo without any fuss. Nothing was too much trouble for him. If you want a DJ who listens to what you want and keeps everyone dancing, book Matt

Matt is a fantastic entertainer! His DJ sets had everyone on the dance floor the whole night! Highly recommend.

Matt is an exceptional musician- his aptitude for engaging an audience is quite unique. Having attended a number of his events over the past few years, it still surprises me how he can get a whole room singing along in harmony! If you’re looking for a charismatic performer with an extensive & really fun collection of songs, I would say ‘look no further!’
