"Hi guys, I just wanted to drop you a quick message to thank you so much for playing at our wedding, our guests kept telling us how amazing you were throughout the evening, right from the first dance to the very end you kept all ages up and dancing….exactly what we were hoping for when booking a band, you certainly delivered…and then some!"

"`I have had the privilege of hearing the wonderful music Ryan creates for many years. His sound is unique, as are the deep messages that are embedded within his songs. His experiences have crafted him into the musician he has become. As with all true artists, there is profound meaning and intentionally behind all he does and creates. Not only is Ryan a talented musician, but he is also a very generous person. In 2016, my son Jacob was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. In 2018, Ryan donated his time and talents to play at a fundraiser for Jacob and our family. The crowd loved Ryan’s powerful music, and the enthusiasm he brought to the room was electrifying. He truly had the audience in the palm of his hand.`"

"These lovely people played at our wedding in August 2019 and they were amazing. Excelled our expectations & were an excellent choice to play live music for our evening. The band were brilliant and we had a wonderful time dancing the night away with all our friends. Very helpful and flexible enough to fit around the rest of the wedding reception plans. Professional from start to finish, I would have absolutely no reservations in recommending and hope we can find an excuse to book again."

"So talented! So fun! Great addition to our party! Number 9 Coal played for 3 hours at my brother's rehearsal dinner and welcome party in November '21. They were fantastic! They were on time, communicated great, were professional and the music was excellent. They even took the time to learn a new song to surprise my brother and his fiance. They really were the perfect touch on an excellent night! Thanks so much guys! I look forward to hearing (and hiring) you again!

"(With Sarah-Jane singing) What an excellent evening ! The guests had a fab time. I am enjoying taking all the credit for the choice of band. The lads and yourself fitted in perfectly The music was excellent and very much enjoyed by all. But even better the lads and yourself are as charming as you are talented. Thank you for indulging my demands for the mic and flexible timings I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you to other events organisers and you can quote me on that. So..a big thankyou for agreeing at short notice and being such a professional, charming and talented band"

"The best decision we made was hiring Music&Soul! They brought elegance, fun, and incredible talent to our wedding. From the ceremony to the final song, they had everyone engaged and entertained. The mix of live instruments with DJ was just perfect!"

"Many professional musicians through the years I have called Seminole Jackson, “the real deal”… church musicians have always called him ‘doctor” or “professor”. He is a real student of all traditional music styles-blues, rock, country, funk, soul, R&B. Check him out and you’ll see!"

"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!"

"Aangenaam verrast door hun optreden. De zangeres is een ware ontdekking. Haar stem is zowel krachtig als kwetsbaar en ze weet elke emotie perfect over te brengen. Of het nu over liefde, verlies of vreugde gaat haar interpretaties zijn oprecht. De chemie tussen haar en de gitarist is voelbaar, dit zorgt ervoor dat elk optreden fris en verrassend is en het publiek steeds geboeid blijft."
