Decatur Street Jazz
"Rosie was an absolute star. She was technically brilliant (beautiful voice) and when she was let down by the sound system completed her set unaccompanied. Her professionalism and un-flappability in the face of difficulty was very impressive. Would strongly recommend."
Oh la la!
"The residents of Norton Place were delighted to welcome Fifi and Olly to perform at our summer soirée on 16 August. Their performance was uplifting and wowed the audience over three sets with their fabulous range of familiar and not so familiar french music."
Brian Clemens
"From start to finish Brian was nothing short of epic! We wanted a pianist for our wedding ceremony and from the moment we booked Brian he was very communicative, super friendly, listened to all of our slightly strange requests and made them all happen, down to the last detail.
On the day, Brian arrived well in advance of the start this, and was playing his gorgeous music to the guests (and putting me at easy) well before the start of the ceremony.
Yes his music is SUPERB, but for me, what made Brian most incredible, was he ability to read the room. We had a song mid-ceremony (which we thought could potentially be badly sang by guests) but not on Brian’s watch… he lead us all in, adding fun bits into the song, picking up the pace when needed and giving us all the confidence to “belt it out”.
Just a true professional with a personal touch. Brilliant Brian!"
The London Jazz Duo
"Robin’s music is all about lyrical playing informed from ‘the source’, delivered with a warm joyful sound."
The Bluebelle Trio
"Thanks for coming again to help us with this event, it added so much and we hope to see you again soon"
Marcella Puppini
"As Director of Wheathill Music, I've booked Marcella for many events over the years, including weddings, Christmas parties, corporate launches and special occasions at London's five star hotels and restaurants. She's a delight to work with, and feedback is always highly complimentary.
A formidable artist with a wonderful voice and fabulous style. Marcella's a perfectionist who genuinely puts her heart and soul into every event. It's amazing to have a multi-instrumentalist singer who is also a top notch DJ. She's the complete entertainment package!"
