"Billy Gumbo is one of a kind musician, he surprised us with his versatility and technical musicianship. As an international show he amazed us with his command of a variety of skills and songs. French, Italian, German, Polish, Russian, Irish and even Greek, it was a wonderful 2-hour performance that sent our hearts aglow. Well done sir!"

"My husband surprised me with a visit from Johnny for our wedding anniversary. I was born in Scotland and we both love the sound of the bagpipes. Johnny was amazing and pulled off the surprise with ease! He plays beautifully. A very memorable evening and we will for sure have him back again as soon as we find an excuse!"

"Angie was such a pleasure to work with! I am an international bride (USA) and held my wedding in Barcelona, Spain. Angie was so enthusiastic about being a part of our special day and worked her schedule to fit our wedding timeline. She and her partner's talent contributed greatly to the overall feel of our ceremony and guest's experience. I can't thank her enough! It was such a pleasure to have her on our special day! "

"Have just returned from a cruise on Fred Olsen’s Balmoral, Boogie entertained us every evening. He played all the right music for the age of the passengers on the ship. Really enjoyed his performances."

"I booked GeO Gospel Choir for my wedding after hearing them perform at Glasgow's SECC wedding exhibition. They were the absolute highlight of our day and without a doubt one of the best decisions we made. Our guests still talk about their performance to this day. I can't recommend them highly enough and would love to book them again for another special occasion! - Mr & Mrs Haig, Lochside House Hotel, Ayrshire "

"Jahangir is a good musician. He played during the opening of our Boetiek 66 in Loppersum, which was on September 30, 2022. The guitar playing and vocals were very good. He has sung a beautiful duet with his girlfriend. The communication with Jahangir is also very correct and friendly. In short: highly recommended, it gets a 10 from"

"Jools composed and remotely recorded violin sections for 3 of my tracks: Just For a Day; Roman 7; Boneyard. The tracks have an American influence but would fall under the indie genre. Essentially, the remit for Jools was to 'bulk them out' with strings. Although I had not actually met Jools in person (and still haven't), he was extremely responsive when communicating via email and therefore didn't need to meet. Before agreeing, he encouraged me to listen to his back catalogue - I was impressed with the breadth and depth of genres that Jools had worked with and I was pleased to learn he had worked with a couple of acquaintances of mine- namely The Birmingham Philharmonic Orchestra and Chris Tye. Listening to his work, I was impressed by his knack around texturising songs- in my experience, strings can sometimes feel isolated from the rest of the instrumentation and I am aware that some string players find this aspect of composition challenging. Throughout the process, Jools ensured he had a secure understanding around my expectations. This brought about discussion around dynamics, chord progression technique (tremolo, tied sections etc). Although he was happy to read from transcript, I felt that his take on composition would be much better than mine, so he kindly agreed to compose the parts himself. After recording the first version, he sent me recordings via YouTube- he even went to the trouble of including a running text commentary of his thoughts within the video itself. This meant that I could give better feedback and bounce off his ideas. I was especially amazed by the turnaround (3 days to complete the process) as I had not set any deadlines or ball-park timeframes. Jools' playing is technically perfect and he has an exceptional ear for harmony and dynamics. e.g. He knew not to play for the sake of playing, and when to build to crescendo. He was able to add a range of chords, hooks and new melodies to the song. In Boneyard, the melody in the instrumental chorus ended up becoming the dominant hook- this was totally unplanned. Much like his violin playing, the overall recording quality was very professional. If you are looking for an outstanding string player who is both technical and visionary, Jools would be my number one recommendation."

"Abbiamo scelto Luigi al sax e il suo collega al pianoforte per il matrimonio di mia mamma ed è stata una decisione apprezzatissima! La loro musica ha creato un’atmosfera coinvolgente per tutti gli invitati. Oltre al grande talento, si sono dimostrati disponibili e flessibili con gli orari, il che ha reso l’organizzazione ancora più semplice. Tutti gli ospiti hanno fatto i complimenti: davvero una scelta che rifaremmo senza esitazione."

"Edward performed on our wedding on the 31 May 2021 and we could simply not have asked for a better choice! When you plan a wedding, you are literary dealing with a million things and various suppliers at the same time and this can be very overwhelming and stressful. As soon as we connected with Edward, we immediately felt reassured and that we don’t have to follow up with him at all, as he is extremely professional and responsible. The communication with him was very smooth and easy and he was also, very fast to get back to us - we just knew for sure, that the music will NOT be one of the things that we would have to worry about on that day! Also, apart from the fast that he is greatly talented in what he does, he was very flexible with our special song requests too, which also made our planning easier and of course our wedding day, even more special! Edward - Thank you so much for your great performance during our wedding and your overall help! We could not recommend you more to any one who is looking for an amazing and stress-free music option either for a social or corporate event!"

"We’ve had multiple bands play at our events and this one by far was the best. Sounds the best, plays the best cover, nice and easy to work with and willing to accommodate our needs. Highly suggest. The combination of great vocals and great instrument sound was fantastic. "

"Best wedding musician! Ricky is AMAZING! When my husband and I walked into our cocktail hour after photos, we couldn’t believe how beautiful the music was. Ricky creates the perfect atmosphere for any event. He sets up and tears down so fast and efficiently. He also continued to play all night, playing the songs from our reception from memory on the dance floor to get everyone up and dancing! Can’t recommend enough!!"

"Jahangir played at our engagement dinner party. Hiring him was super simple because he was able to bring his own equipment, then he played the guitar and sang. I loved the romantic songs by Ed Sheeran the most and my fiancé was happy with all the “oldies but goldies”. All our guests said how they liked the cozy, acoustic mood the live music created. We definitely recommend him!"
