Gemma and Yue, thank you both so much for making my 40th birthday party so memorable. Talented, polite, funny, warm, welcoming and professional are just some of the words I would use to describe you both. Throughout the whole booking process you were responsive, accommodating and helpful and I was really impressed with your ability to tailor your set to accommodate my requests. I was amazed by your ability to learn so many songs in such a short space of time, a real testament to your vocal abilities and dedication to your clients! On the night, you were punctual, organised and efficient when setting up before wowing my guests with 3 sets of top quality music! Your ability to gauge and read the mood of the crowd was spot on and you soon had everyone singing along with you, me especially..! All my guests have been contacting me this week to thank me for the party and all of them have commented about how impressed they were with you both. Ladies, thank you once again for a top night that I will certainly remember for a long time. Anyone out there thinking about hiring a band, book Gemma and Yue, you will not be disappointed…!!!

I originally found Gemma and Yue on a local recommendations Facebook group. Wanting a bit more proof I researched them on youtube and liked what I saw. I could never have imagined how perfect they we be for our occasion and I can honestly say all the videos on youtube do not do them justice. It was our 10 year wedding anniversary and we held a picnic for our friends and family and this was the special treat. They made our day so memorable. They agreed to any requests I had and everyone at the picnic commented on how good they were. I was grinning from ear to ear and I'm pretty sure they will be receiving more bookings from some of my guests. Gemma and Yue THANK YOU for making a great day unbelievably memorable xxx (10 / 10)
