Tim Payne
"Tim played at my 60th birthday party and was absolutely fantastic. He started with a brilliant acoustic set and then moved into more guitar-driven music as the evening went on. He’s a great singer, really got the party going, and is also a genuinely nice guy. I’d highly recommend him for any party or event."
Trumpet for events
"Many people came up to me after the service saying how genuinely touched they were by your performance. My Uncle and my Dad were sat behind me during the service and you literally reduced them both to tears. I have never seen either of them cry before. It was extremely moving, your performance was beautiful and perfect. Rob would have absolutley loved it. Thank you much for performing for us and for your professionalism and sympathy. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone"
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."
Jack Barnes
"Jack was amazing. From early communication planning the play list through to performing on the day, Jack delivered! Jack is personable, polite and does not intrude. Thank you Jack for making the birthday celebrations special."
The Backbeats
"The Backbeats were fantastic to work with and were thoroughly enjoyed by the guests at Frances's 60th birthday party. Martyn was very easy to communicate with in the lead-up to the party, and when we needed to change their set times, they were happy to adapt. I would be more than happy to book them again in the future.
