Lucy and Jacob's Reviews

Very grateful for this kind review from Sarah C: "We had Lucy sing for us at a garden party last week, and she was brilliant! She really created a warm atmosphere with her fabulous vocals and suited the intimate feel of the afternoon. She was very professional and we would definitely recommend booking her !! " Rated ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

As Events & Activities officer for the Residential Experience team at the University of Nottingham, I have been fortunate enough to hire Lucy and her "breakaway" band. The band were incredible created a really amazing relaxed jazzz vibe with Lucy providing the lead vocals, sublime scintillating and seductive. They are incredibly professional really easy to work with and enthusiastic. Their musicality and vocals are amazing. They performed at the Queens Patinum jubilee picnic on the downs where they performed infront of nearly 3000 students. They then performed at three end of term BBQs brilliant and really happy with their performances and Lucy is a dream to work with.
