"Darren was a great surprise, really interesting, pleasant engaging musician, with a brilliant repertoire played and sung well. The level of volume was just right so as to not make conversation difficult. He arrived on time, set up quickly and left after the gig with no fuss. I will definitely hire him again. "

"We couldn’t have been more happier with Matt. He was amazing and we had plenty of positive comments from guests and the venue. We have recommended Matt to a fair few members of family and friends. He was polite, skilled and it felt like he was playing longer (for which we would be very grateful if he did indeed). If there is anything I regret, it would be not having him booked for the whole day and evening!"

"What a pleasure it was to have you at our 30th birthday party, thank you from us both for putting on such a great performance... everyone really enjoyed the evening, we have had many of the people who attended comment on your wonderful array of songs and how good your voice was. You were the ultimate professional from start to finish and would highly recommend you to anyone who was looking for a live acoustic musician for any Birthday, Wedding or Party. Thanks again for making our evening so special."

"Before seeing this show I had heard many rumours about Harmonica Lewinsky, whose background was shrouded in mystery, although I believe he learned his harmonica skills in the Deep South in the deltas of Harrow on the Hill under the tutelage of Blind Les Battersby. But, it was a very different character to the one I expected who performed at the posh Victoria pub in Highgate! Mr Lewinsky, looking like a cross between a rabbi and one-half of Chas 'n Dave (I'm not sure which half) appeared in cloth cap and braces and presented a highly original selection of songs, some of which rarely see the light of day. There were no predictable “Brown Eyed Girls” or “Mustang Sally’s” here: instead - a veritable feast of the unexpected - as we witnessed one man, his guitar and his trusty harps. When was the last time you heard a pub act kick off his set with Chas 'n Dave's “The Sideboard Song” and follow it with the Theme to “Top Cat” and then offerings of cheery, chirpy Cockney ditties including “Waiting At The Church,” “Maybe It's Because I'm A Londoner”, “Show Me The Way To Go Home” and Tommy Steele's “What A Mouth”? I’m guessing the answer to that question is ‘rarely’ (if ever) but the fun didn't stop there. Mr Harmonica Man is a really great entertainer and demonstrated, with great finesse, his harmonica technique on - wait for it - the Shadows' “Apache”! It was quite a feat playing the melody on the harp while strumming his guitar. ‘Harmy’, as he is known to his close friends (or 'Self-Harmy‘ to others) also tackled in the first half the theme to "The Flintstones"; Elvis Costello's catchy “Watching The Detectives” and the Cockney knees-up “I've Got A Lovely Bunch Of Coconuts”. Harmy was back in terrific Pearly King form for the second half starting with “Any Old Iron” followed by a touch of the Formbys with “Leaning On A Lamppost” after which he did a ‘Donegan’ with a riotous version of “My Old Man's A Dustman” complete with enthusiastic audience participation. Mr Lewinsky has a great sense of humour, which he constantly shares with the Victoria regulars. "Here's another Cockney classic sung by a Welsh man", quipped Harmy before diving into “Delilah.” Other gems included the theme tune to ‘Match Of The Day’ (played on two harmonicas); a very funny and risque interpretation of Mike Jerome's “Sling Yer Hook”; a great version of the Small Faces' mod anthem “Lazy Sunday”; and a yahoo rendition of the old country favourite “Riders In The Sky”. After many encores Mr Lewinsky packed away his cap and braces and headed off to the Deep South (of London) for some pie and mash. The Victoria would do well to snap up Harmy for some more gigs before he hop-foots it down the Strand for a residency at the Old Bull and Bush!"

"Last August we hosted the "Moon and Silver Duo" for an acoustic live music evening, and I must say it was a great experience. Angelo on guitar and Francesca with her voice and piano captivated the audience with their extraordinary chemistry. Their selection of songs created a magical and engaging atmosphere, Francesca’s warm voice blended perfectly with Angelo’s melodies, providing moments of joy and emotion. It was a true delight to see our guests (and also the staff members ) so involved and happy. We can’t wait to have the "Moon and Silver Duo" back on our stage for another night of beautiful music! Giovanni (Italy)"
