Verified profile

I have always enjoyed playing music from a very young age where I learnt the piano and then went on to learn the guitar. I enrolled into various musical productions and found a true love for singing and performing. I went on to learn the ukulele and continue to enjoy bringing my various instruments into my performing. I love playing songs people know so try to bring a variety of well known covers from the 60s onwards. With my own PA and lighting I will bring the show and you can sit back and enjoy it knowing that you and your guests will be thoroughly taken care of!

I am not quite sure where to start because Bethany is amazing!! Me and my (now) husband found Bethany online and we loved her so we got in touch and managed to see her locally before we confirmed booking and within a minute of her first song we were sold and knew we had to have her! From that night to the wedding day, Bethany was a dream to work with and so easy to contact and so helpful with timings etc and how things work! She sung and learnt our walking down the isle song which is so special to us! If I could give Bethany 10 stars I would as she is fabulous! If you are thinking of booking her, just do it! You will not regret it! Thank you for such amazing memories Bethany, Adam and Emma xx
