Mickey's Reviews

5 out of 5

From the very start Mickey was friendly , professional and very accommodating. A true professional with great charisma. He performed at our 90th birthday celebration and was so kind and respectful to my Father. We had such a fun evening. The music set was perfect. We hope to do it all again one day .

Mickey was an absolute pleasure to have at our wedding to sing at the afternoon drinks reception. A very talented singer and entertainer. He added some class and fun to our drinks reception and everyone was so complimentary about him. He was also very communicative and tailored his set to our preference (including learning one of our favourite songs). We would strongly recommend Mickey for any event.

Amazing Mickey is super friendly and flexible. He swooned and entertained a mix of ages at our recent wedding and we received many compliments about him. Would not hesitate to recommend. Many thanks Mickey for all your assistance and entertaining the crowds in our garden during storm Antoni . It may have been raining outside but there was definitely sun shining as we danced. Kind regards Paul and Barbara. Cambridge 8/23

Mickey was sensational! We loved him, our guests loved him! He did two fantastic sets for us and then played music for us all evening. We would not hesitate to book him for another event.

Thank you for singing so brilliantly at our wedding. All the guests can't stop commenting on how fantastic your voice is and how you really made the evening. Thanks also for DJing, you immediately knew the right songs to play and didn't talk like a lot of DJ's do. We really did have a perfect day." (Lorraine & Paul Currie)

Mickey was fantastic. Professional, timely, courteous, flexible, and of course very talented. A great night was had by all. Would highly recommend Mickey

Customer questions

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

No problem at all - We always try our best to be as flexible as possible for your event to proceed as smoothly as possible - just get in contact and we will accommodate accordingly.

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

Absolutely, this is something I offer for free before and in-between sets. If you are looking for a full DJ set to follow seamlessly until Midnight, I offer an additional DJ package playing a full mix of party music or whatever theme you may have in mind - I also accept playlists. This is an additional £250

How much time do you need to set up?

I always allow at least 1 hour and more if the set up is more complex. I offer an early set up fee where I can arrive earlier in the day to avoid disruption for an additional £100

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

You are more than welcome to choose songs from my repertoire. My sets are constantly evolving to aim for the best balance of songs, working from years of experience - However, I'm always happy to take any suggestions.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, I bring my own sound equipment and lighting if required for an audience of around 250/300 people

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

If a song is not included in my repertoire, there is still a chance I may know it and my repertoire is constantly growing. If there is a special song that you'd like me to learn, I'd be happy to do this for free as long as the song is suitable or adaptable to my vocal style.
