"This Piper was a God-send. He became involved in the Commemoration of Outbreak of War service at the last minute, stepping up to help in an emergency, and was a real asset to the Church. His playing is exemplary- and the moving, haunting sound enabled everyone to connect deeply with the poems and readings, the honouring and remembering, and the moving of all of us on to commit ourselves to peace. I have no hesitation in recommending him for church services and hope to see him at weddings in the Upper Kennett Benefice. "

"Michael was the best decision we could have made for the wedding! His communication was incredible. He helped us think through things that we hadn't even considered and really made the schedule as smooth as could be. He was able to accommodate for our ceremony that did not have a power source. We even had our generator go out during the reception and he didn't hesitate to keep the vibe going. He started up his battery powered speakers and many guests didn't even realize the power was out. Michael was on board with our creative song choices and made them crowd pleasers. Majority of our guests complimented the DJ choice because we had the best dance floor ever. Thank you Michael for everything!!!!!"

"Bob was booked for a Burns supper. He was really flexible in what he could offer; I was asking him to play over a prolonged period of time, not a 40min 'set'. He engaged with the crowd brilliantly, and really brought the songs to life. I would absolutely recommend to anyone and would absolutely use again, thank you Bob."

"Our experience through booking with Encore has been so smooth and easy. However Abigail made this booking even more perfect and made the process before the wedding stress free and easy. Abigail communicated with us superbly and granted every wish we had for our wedding ceremony. No song was too much and never made us feel like we were asking for too much. Would not think twice about booking Abigail as she was professional, kind and above all else a great violinist. Thank you again Abigail!"

"The Swinton Folk Festival was a little wet, due to howling gales, but it didn't seem to dampen the enthusiasm of those inside the Lancastrian Hall, Best gigs of the event went to Stanley Accrington and a new bunch to me called Beer for Breakfast, (what an awful name,) but nothing awful about their Celtic influenced folk and swing. They did doubly well as their regular fiddler was absent having chopped off his fingers; very bright. Get in touch people if you read this."

"DJ Brian Bender was exactly what we wanted and needed for our wedding. He played incredible jazz piano throughout our cocktail hour and reception, following with a brilliant mix of our wedding playlist. He knew exactly when to play the right songs and the vibe of our wedding flowed perfectly all night. He was kind and courteous in every exchange we had with him and we felt we received work above and beyond especially for the price, absolute bargain. Would recommend to anybody. "

"Over the top entertainment was provided by Mr. Murphy, aka Billy Gumbo. He started with traditional Oktoberfest music, mixed in Cajun songs, some Tex Mex and even some Rocktoberfest music! He is very personable and entertaining, getting the crowd involved and even winding them up into a screaming frenzy! He met the odd requests of Italian songs and Irish punk polkas. It was a 4 hour event and he squeezed every ounce he had into the show. Highly recommend. "

"Many thanks to Casado Jazz Quartet for a superb evening’s entertainment at Sutton Arts Theatre on Saturday 13th April. They are SO talented! We enjoyed the musical diversity of their programme and their skills on the different instruments - that was a WOW and really contributed to an outstanding evening of entertainment! Lovely banter too! Highly recommended. Many thanks to all involved."

"A FANTASTIC afternoon/evening at The Golden Eagle with Father Jack. The Guiness flowed along with the songs, tunes & dancing which made for a brilliant St. Patrick's Party."
