"Thank you, Jade, for playing such a beautiful set at our wedding; you created the most wonderful atmosphere following our ceremony. All of our guests absolutely loved listening to you and dancing along, from my beautiful nan to my two-year-old nephew! And a special thank you for adding the extra songs you kindly learned for us to your set list - our friends loved that special touch of hearing you play songs that mean so much to our friendship groups - we're so grateful, thank you!

"Damien was fantastic. Perfect for our garden party - playing to 40 adults and children. A great repertoire, including an outstanding Let It Go from Frozen! Huge thanks to Damien. We had lots of positive comments from our guests and would not hesitate to ask him back next year!"

"I hired Jeff Jarrett to perform live acoustic music for an event I was hosting for Raymond James at the Hawthorne Bottle Shop in St Pete. Everyone was blown away by his performance. Jeff is a true professional and has perfected his craft. He played a wide variety of music really catering to all the attendees. He took requests and played those flawlessly as well. Jeff was very memorable and many of my attendees were asking for his info before he finished!! Jeff was the perfect choice for our upscale and relaxed atmosphere. I would highly recommend Jeff for your live music needs for any private corporate event in the St Pete, Tampa or Orlando areas!"

"Will played at our wedding in December and was absolutely amazing. Before the event, he communicated with us well, letting us choose songs that we wanted him to play and even learning a couple at our request. On the day he was so friendly and played well to our audience catering for our children as well as the adults. He made our drinks reception and wedding breakfast so much fun. Everyone commented on how great he was with lots of people wanting to book him for their own events. We can’t thank Will enough for adding to our special day ."

"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!"

"A huge thank you Paul, for a great performance at our Party a couple of weeks. The performance and song choice you made for us was exactly right for the occasion and was very much appreciated by everyone. I would highly recommend Paul, and would not hesitate having him perform for us again sometime in the future."

"We have had the pleasure of listening to Joe perform a few times, most recently May 2019. As someone not particularly into acoustic music, Joe’s voice makes my hair stand on end. A professional and all round nice guy to deal with and have in our bar. I have no doubt one day Joe will be a big name in the music industry and wish him every success. Thank you Joe!"

"David and Matt did a great show for us, very classy and groovy, and I can only highly recommend them! We had a wedding party with 120+ people and they perfectly started the dancing, fit a great playlist to the crowd and also played some spontaneous wishes. Thank you two very much for making our wedding party a great get-together with excellent music! David & Gaby"

"Joe performed an acoustic set during the welcome drinks at our wedding on 1st June and it was perfect to avoid any pre dinner lull. Our guests (and of course us!) all loved him and we have heard nothing but rave reviews and compliments. Joe’s voice is honestly amazing and his performance was completely flawless! I am in awe of how talented one person can be! Thank you so much! We would highly, highly recommend. "
