If you're lucky enough to have Nicky Mitchell performing at your venue, you'll be hosting one of your best nights ever! Musicianship and a voice to die for. She oozes talent and personality, and her easy delivery of your favourite - and lesser known - songs, will have you cheering for encore after encore...

We employed Nicky for our wedding on 15th July 2017 and we were not disappointed. From the first email contact until the two performances she did during the day, the communication was seamless. When we met with her to discuss songs for the ceremony, she was cooperative, encouraging and supportive in our choices, suggesting adapting lengths of songs and words to suit our requirements. She was so approachable and pleasant about our special day. Additionally, she offered to contact the venue where she performed in the evening about sound checking and arrival, alleviating us from one more job to do. She was thorough and we were very lucky to be able to be in a position to trust her 100% as we at no point had any doubts about her suitability or ability to deliver. On the day she was there without any prompting, she was engaging with the guests in the ceremony and had a fantastic timely presence. When she arrived in the evening she blended in with the occasion and was able to entertain the children and woo the adults. It was a suitably fitting performance with subtle control without lack of continuity. She is very professional performer and that was evident in how she adapted to the scene she was in. All our guests were amazed by her range, engagement with them and the pure enjoyment she conveyed. I would recommend her in any performance situation; she is a very talented, giving and honest performer, perfect qualities for someone of her calibre. Finally, we secured her attendance with an initial deposit and then paid the outstanding balance a few days before the date. However, there was no pressure on her part and she was flexible but professional about signing a contract ensuring both parties’ protection.
