Review Centre: Pop / Rock Singers

"Matt played at my wife's 40th. We hired Matt because he is not one of those "X factor wannabes". Matt's passion is the sound of the music, not how famous he might be able to get and this really comes out in his live performances. Matt has a great voice and natural rhythm. Both his acoustic guitar and loop sets were really good. He also dealt admirably with dozens of kids running around the place! It was nice to meet Matt. He's a nice bloke and he creates some great sounds. Would definitely recommend him for any kind of gig whether it be a pub, a private party or a bigger stage. Thanks Matt! "

"I am the Chair of the French Circle at the National Liberal Club. On July 15, 2025, the club hosted it's first Bastille Black Tie Dinner. It was a highly anticipated event which brought leaders in business, diplomacy and prestigious institutions across the Franco-British spectrum. This happened a few days after the highly publicised state visit of President Emmanuel Macron to the UK. I needed someone to sing La Marseillaise at the dinner and I could not afford to get it wrong considering what was at stake. The club hired Livi and she delivered exactly as expected in a high profile event. Everyone stood up when she started singing a pitch-perfect Marseillaise for a Bastille Day that is now referenced as one of the great Franco-British moments in the NLC's history book."

"We chose them for the most important day of our lives, and we couldn’t have made a better decision. The band offers a wide selection of songs, all performed with passion and skill. They welcomed our special requests and were also happy to accommodate song requests from our guests during the party. (Italian) Ci siamo affidati a loro per il nostro giorno più importante e non avremmo potuto fare scelta migliore. La band offre una vasta selezione di brani eseguiti con passione e maestria. Hanno accolto le nostre richieste di brani extra e, inoltre, si sono dimostrati disponibili anche alle richieste degli invitati durante la festa."

"I found James while perusing for a live musician for a surprise 70th birthday party we were holding for our mum. From start to finish, James was communicative and kept me informed every step of the way. We welcomed mum in while James played a small DJ set, then he sang live. I was blown away by his talent and the hypnotic smoothness of his voice. He played a further set after a break and really got the crowd up and dancing. All in all, a highly talented musician and I commend anyone who can get to the high pitches of the Spice Girls :-) We had some of the guests round for breakfast for the following morning and they too were completely blown away by his talent. Thank you so much James, you are one of a kind and we will definitely be calling on you again! You made everyone’s night, but most importantly, you made my mum’s night."

"Gemma sang at our wedding in April and so many people commented on how beautiful her voice is. I asked her to sing one song from her profile and 2 new ones which she was very happy to learn - thank you. Gemma's voice is incredible and she really made the church service so beautiful. I would highly recommend Gemma!"

I am already thinking about what event I can plan just to have them back!"

"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!"

"As a music journalist, I am someone well used to hearing performances covering the whole spectrum of ability, from very talented, to no talent whatsoever; mainly on the working circuit, encountering much from the bottom end of the scale, the flaws of which seemingly pass by, or go over the heads of the audience, mediocre musical acts often gaining acceptance despite (or because of) their lack of any talent whatsoever. So, when on a random whim, I booked MAYHEM into The Old Crown, Hayes, I was pleasantly surprised to come across that jewel one constantly seeks: a light hidden in the bushel, an act of great quality. Don’t get me wrong, on the surface, MAYHEM are basically just another covers band, with certainly not much more to offer in terms of choice of material than others treading the same circuit. The difference though, is in the depth of thought in the vocal arrangements, and the attention to detail in the performance of the songs. Someone in the band has true musical knowledge. The way the vocals are arranged and used is no accident, and the music has a depth and surety that is pure class. Carol’s voice is unique, and at many points conveys rare emotion for those who can hear. The two voices are a happy accident of coincidence; Carol’s rather treble voice, Billy’s gruff baritone, both interesting voices taken in isolation, but together producing a sound that is perhaps greater than the sum of its parts. The quality of both singers shows itself also in the faultlessly correct intonation, the thrilling blend and invention of the harmonies, the search for expression in the vocals, the subtle use of the arrangements to produce expression. Most of these subtleties are of course lost on the general public, but the band still have enough battle-hardened experience and know-how to ride out any waves of indifference, and overcome the hardest heart with a friendly approach to their clientele, patiently trying out various styles and eras, constantly striving to reach their listeners, despite a kind of yearning in the music for serious recognition. Personally, I found it somewhat sad that a talented band like this has to resort to some popular (and bland) material, but one must bow to reality, and work is work. Still, the musicians didn’t just accept the status quo of this material; they always had a few surprises in store in the way they approached any song, however scraped from the bottom of the barrel. Carol’s voice sounded at its best on songs like “SUMMER OF ’69” and “I DON’T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT”, but she shone through on harder songs too, like “LIVING ON A PRAYER” and “DON’T BRING ME DOWN”. Billy didn’t sing quite as many lead lines, but when he did, it was with a power and confidence that knew just how best to carry the melody, and the strength of harmony singing was in a different league from the average one would expect to hear in a situation like this. On “Living La Vida Loca” the dual vocals were outstanding, perhaps the most equal blend of the day, with other such highlights for me being “Don’t Stop me Now” and “I Wanna Know what Love is”. The locals however enjoyed some of the lighter material more, such as “Rockabilly Rebel”, square dancing their way through the afternoon with great whoops and hollers, playing their part in a very pleasant day in a very pleasant pub. There was a humorous moment when the lads at the bar joined in with “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’” all pointing and dancing in the manner of Tom Cruise in “Top Gun”! A vivid sight to behold, for sure! The day ended with a raucous rendition of “Rockin’ All Over The World”, the two singers showing that they could rock it with the best of them when the chips are down. Can’t wait to see this band again. (10 / 10) Andrew Staines "
