"We couldn't recommend Will more highly as a wedding guitarist. As well as being a fantastic musician with an excellent repertoire, he was easy to contact and very flexible to our requests. "

"We had an amazing time with Karianne at our wedding. Her performance was fantastic. What a beautiful voice! She even extended her stay to allow our guests to have some music background. Her professionalism and communication skills are unbeatable. She kept in touch before the wedding to cater to any last minute changes. She made it so easy for me and Stuart to work with her and enjoy our wedding. Thank you Karianne for the amazing songs selection!!!"

"We felt very lucky to have Jonathan playing on our special day. The music he played at our wedding reception was a perfect mix of ballads and upbeat songs. What made it so special is that Jonathan asked us before the day if there were any songs that were significant to my husband and I. He played and sang our requests beautifully. I would definitley recommend him."

"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!"

"We hosted an afternoon Christmas event are our pub. Ben was not only incredibly talented and entertaining, but very professional! We thoroughly enjoyed having him perform, and our customers in the pub really enjoyed the entertainment- many asked if we will host the same event next year, with Ben. it was a lovely afternoon, and Ben gave a fabulous performance. We have recommended him to other pubs in our area who host similar events."

"Sound of cello. Congratulations on the choice and on the perseverance that give such effect. What can I, Poor Beetle, can say about what I am hearing here. I can just stand up and clap my hands when the right time comes, and to give flowers. I also congratulate you on the success which is already the sole possibility to perform solo pieces before the audience and I wish you as much as it may for you to be given the position of a solo performer. It was mostly pleasant for me to listen to your repertuar here. When it comes to Beethoven, Andrzej, [a reference to a previous comment] has “Ode to Joy” become tasteless for what was done to it??? More horrendous things were done to “For Elisa” – all the postcards and musical toys. Good they have calmed down and stopped the such banging away with “Moonlight Sonata.” Once again bravo Ursula the cellist for exposing these sounds. All the best, Darek”"

"We had a wonderful time! The music definitely met our expectations. I'm glad I chose you, and that it turned out so well. Without ever meeting you, without hearing the music beforehand (unlike on the website), the performance was exactly what I expected. I can confidently recommend booking you this way. Friendly (phone) contact."

"If your ideal evening out includes live music in a setting that offers a wide variety of food and family friendly shopping options, you’ve got to stumble on the Mercado Dist Food and Live Music on Tues nights. Dr Saxy puts on a great show playing both Alto and Tenor sax and an extensive playlist! Very interactive without being intrusive, what a great evening. Tuesday may have just become my favorite evening of the week. "
