"Everyone really enjoyed Kenny’s musical talents. He had the right mix of music for our crowd, it was loud enough to be enjoyed while we could still carry on conversations with our neighbors. He was extremely easy to work with, and very accommodating of all of our needs. He responded very quickly, showed up on time, and did a great job. We would definitely hire him again. ~Cindy B."

"Harmie brought his full Cockney repertoire to the cavernous Cavalier pub in Whetstone and he had to fight his way through the crowds to get to the stage, arriving with his guitar, a collection of harmonicas, his cloth cap and braces and a mug of jellied eels. This was a real Cockney knees-up evening for the regulars, who included in their midst the Pearly King and Queen of Purley, or was it Finchley? Kicking off with Chas 'n Dave's raucous toe-tapper, "The Sideboard Song" the cheeky chappie tackled a lovely bunch of Cockney ditties, including Tommy Steele's showstopper, "What A Mouth"; an entertaining version of the old Billy Cotton (now there was a good old Cockney) number, "The Marrow Song"; and the singalong tunes, "Maybe It's Because I'm A Londoner", "Show Me The Way To Go Home", "Meet Me At The Church" and the tasty, "Hot Meat Pie, Saveloys And Trotters". Highlights of the first set were Harmie's harmonica-led rendition of the Shadows' classic instrumental, "Apache" and, following a request from a punter, a countryfied version of "What Made Milwaukee Famous", which was part made famous by Rod Stewart. The lovable Cockney character was in humorous form too calling for 'security' when a man approached him for a request, and in telling the audience: "As this is Whetstone I thought we ought to do a song about infidelity," before launching into Gene Pitney's, "24 Hours From Tulsa", complete with harp solo. The second set brought more Cockney treats with Bernard Cribbins' "Right Said Fred"; Mike Jerome's clever, "Sling Yer Hook" and Chas and Dave's weepie, "Ain't No Pleasing You". The audience were loving Harmie by now, but soon he had to battle his way through the masses again to get to the Harmie-mobile and a trip home to the Old Kent Road."

"Maria-Soledad is a very good singer. She is very cheerful and gave us a very good musical performance during our religious ceremony at the chapel of Notre-Dame des sables (Fréhel). She gave us good advice on how to choose musical moments after sharing with us the list of possible music for each moment of the ceremony. She has a very complete YouTube channel with recordings of her interventions. She accompanied us on guitar and organ. Her husband Benjamin was also able to play the trumpet. We highly recommend Maria-Soledad for your religious ceremony. She has very good knowledge of liturgical chants. Thank you again Maria for making this moment so magical."

"Great communication from the beginning. Damien asked for certain requests before the event and has a great catalogue of songs to choose from. He arrived on time, was unfailingly polite and friendly and patiently moved all his gear once set up to allow for a minor change of plan. Would highly recommend. He helped to set the mood for our party. Great music from a great guy"

"What a fantastic night we and our owners have had with the superb performance from Stevie M.  We booked him for our charity event and I knew from previous reviews and listening to his video on YouTube he was going to be good.  Good was an understatement - he was amazing and exceeded our expectations, everyone had a brilliant night and made our night extra special.  We will certainly be rebooking and recommend anyone holding any functions to have Stevie M as you can relax and know that a great night will be had by all, he gets everyone dancing with his selection of songs and brilliant performance. Thanks Stevie M and see you again soon"

"JUSTIN MADE OUR WEDDING SO SPECIAL! 💕 We absolutely love Justin! Without him, our wedding would not have been nearly as special as it was. Our experience with Justin started with a an online search for a ukelele player to play & sing “ Slow Boat to China” by Jimmy Buffett instead of “Here comes the Bride” ( as a surprise for my soon to be hubby, Rich). I GOT ZERO HITS WITH THAT SEARCH-but some general guitarists/musicians came up. When I saw Justin’s videos online and heard his incredible voice and easy demeanor, I contacted him. He said he DID play the Ukelele and could play that and 2 other songs I hoped to include in the ceremony. Justin learned and mastered those 3 songs just for our wedding! PLUS he also added a bunch of other Buffet songs to his already extensive and eclectic repertoire. As Justin and I messaged back and forth with plans, his enthusiasm, effort, planning and desire to make our day really special was astounding. Within hours, I knew we had found not only a very talented young musician, but a very special “old soul.” Rich and I are “Old-ly Weds” and just had a small ceremony and reception with friends and family. Whether they were 8, 18, or 28 to 88, Justin delighted our guests. When we insisted he take a break our guests couldn’t wait to talk to and get to know him. Justin is an absolutely amazing musician as well as a great person. He feels like family now! You’d be hard-pressed to find a more talented musician and all around wonderful and fun person as we found in Justin Turk! We give him 100 thumbs up, and we encourage him to raise his prices!"
