"Best entertainment I've seen in a while. He really had the audience engaged, played the oldies and had seniors up dancing to the fast songs as well as the old. Can't wait to see where he's at next."

"An award winning, talented singer/guitarist with an angelic voice! I book her regularly for venues & events. She has proven she is reliable so now I book her for weddings too. She is well advanced in her maturity for her years and takes her music career seriously. Her performance doesn’t demand attention and isn’t over powering, she sings beautifully with restraint to create ambience at events. Highly recommended!"

"We had johnny play for our opening night and he did not disappoint. He had the crowd singing along with him and out dancing. He took requests on the night, He never stopped playing from start to finish. He was professional and easy going. He had the place rocking from start to finish. We have already booked him for another event in the bar and one of our customers even booked him to play for his birthday party. Book Johnny Guitar he is a rockstar ⭐️"

"We booked Ben for our wedding evening party ( 26/06/15). We left him to sort his own playlist apart from a handful of songs we requested. Wow what a brilliant choice we made booking him. His vocals were amazing and he performed flawlessly. Everyone was asking where we found him and commented how good he was. He entertained us all and made our evening just that more special. We will be going to see him play again. Many thanks Ben, Andy & Paula "

"Had Chloe to play at Tommy's, our venue in Filey, an Americana Bar and Eatery. The evening was perfect and Chloe sold out the event. A wonderful person with an incredible talent; voice, musician and song writer. She shared stories in between her songs and was a joy to listen too. I hope she joins us again in the future, we have many patrons eagerly awaiting her return!"

"I hired Matthew for my 50th birthday party and am so pleased that I did - he was exactly what I was looking for! I selected him on the basis of the quality that I saw on the website, and felt that he was even better in person. Being somewhat fussy, I was apprehensive about finding someone who could meet my needs, but Matthew suggested that we had a meeting before my event and we chatted through my ideas and preferences - as well as the things that I did not want! I came away feeling that he understood me and that we had connected, which was incredibly reassuring, and I was not let down on the night. Matthew is an incredibly talented singer and guitarist - recreating songs in a way that not only reflects the original, but often putting his own twist onto them in a way that keeps them fresh and interesting. His use of the loop pedal was particularly impressive! It was of note that so many of my guests commented on how good he was - they had a great time and really got into the swing of things as he gradually turned up the tempo and got everyone dancing. In doing so, he took requests, interacted with the crowd, showed a good sense of humour and came across as a fun, friendly and approachable guy. He played a wide range of songs, all of which reflected our discussion beforehand, with a great balance between those you might expect at a party and some 'surprises' that may be less common but worked equally well - if not better! I would definitely hire Matthew again, and would recommend him to pretty much anyone: he has a list of nearly 500 songs to choose from, and has a strict policy of not having a 'usual' setlist - instead preferring to engage in a discussion of what you'd like, so would be able to cater for all tastes - even mine! Thanks so much Matthew - you turned a great night into an incredible night!"

Thank you so much for your review Ian - I was genuinely touched! I’m so happy that you enjoyed yourself, especially as I know how anxiety-inducing it can be to organise your own birthday party and feel responsible for everyone’s fun! I loved the atmosphere created by your guests and it was such a pleasure to see you and your friends all dancing together. I hope I can play for you again one day! - Matt

"I booked Ben through this website as I loved his voice and his skills as a guitarist. His sound was just what I was looking for for my wedding in May. He is fast to respond to queries and is extremely good value. He played 2x sets for us, one for the drinks reception and one during the wedding breakfast. You could listen to people talking easily whilst having Ben play in the background. His playlist was spot on and so many of my guests commented on how lovely it was listening to him sing. He does a lot of pub gigs in and around Lichfield so definitely go and see him! I would highly recommend!"

"OH MY GOD!!! Undoubtedly the BEST ceilidh I've ever been to. The music was world class - and Patricia the caller managed to coordinate 300 people of 48 different nationalities to dance together!! The craic was mighty - my calves are still hurting 3 days later. Thank you so much for making our night magical and giving all our European counterparts such a good impression of Celtic Culture!"
