Becky & Josh's Reviews

5 out of 5

They were amazing from start to finish! Can’t recommend more!!

5 out of 5

Becky and Josh were very professional. They communicated well and were set up well ahead of the evening event. Becky sang really well and Josh was great on the guitar. They were responsive to the audience turning the volume down during the dinner so people could talk then playing music that got everyone up onto the dancefloor. Perhaps a little more banter with the audience would have built up a better rapor but this didn't detract from a great evening.

5 out of 5

Absolutely brilliant, lovely to deal with, talented and really accommodating of personal choices. Thank you so much

5 out of 5

Absolutely first class. It was a corporate event and they were fab. Easy to contact & helpful with timings, their advice on how to split sets for this kind of event was really well received. Really good at judging the vibe, and massively talented musicians. Highly recommend.

We found Becky and Josh after Googling 'Wedding entertainment' as we wanted something different to what you 'normally' have at a wedding. After watching videos of them performing songs and hearing Becky's amazing voice we knew straight away we wanted this talented young couple to play at our wedding. Great communication during organising our big day, very responsive, polite and thorough with our requirements. Our big day arrived and we weren't disappointed. Hearing Becky's voice live is exactly what you'll hear like in their videos. Not to mention Josh's guitar skills, such a talented man. Very hard workers and worth every penny. As our guests moved around our venue at Rowton Hall, Chester to different parts, so did Becky and Josh! They moved their equipment to wherever our guests had settled, even in the outside walled garden! If you decide to have them as your Wedding entertainment you will not be disappointed. They really did make our big day very special. Thankyou once again guys, Graham and Rachel x

We booked Becky and Josh for our wedding on 25/06/21 - all we can say is we were BLOWN AWAY. We honestly couldn’t have asked for more. They were a dream to communicate with, so flexible on our song choices, and made them their own and turned them into absolute wedding gold 🤩 All the guests commented about how lovely their performance was! Can’t thank you both enough! 100% would reccomend to anyone!

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

For Trainline in September 2021, at their offices in Edinburgh for their welcome back to work party! It was such a success that we've performed again recently in March 2022.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

Not to worry, timings are always due to change! We try our best to be as flexible as possible for all events, so please do let us know if you think timings will change.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Definitely! This is a service we often provide. We supply a playlist service between our sets for free.

How much time do you need to set up?

It all depends on the booking! For any private events, and corporate events, we need one hour before guests arrive to set up, and soundcheck, and for weddings we require anywhere between one hour and two hours to be set up and sound checked depending on which part of the day you've booked us for. We'll confirm our arrival time with you closer to your event!

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Our songs are often chosen during the performance to ensure we're playing songs that suit the atmosphere and audience, however, we're always happy to hear your preferences so we can ensure you're listening to the music you love! We also offer to learn three new song requests for every booking.

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

PA is included with every quote, and lighting is included with any evening/party bookings. We'll discuss with you ahead of your event your requirements to assess which PA system is best to bring, and also if we need to bring our lighting.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Definitely! For all events we offer to learn three new song requests, so you can choose a couple of your favourite songs for your event.
