Rhian sang and played piano at our wedding reception and during our ceremony. We are so happy we found Rhian quite last minute (less than 2 months before) as our previous musician had to cancel. Rhian was quick to send us a quote and was happy to learn a new song we requested to be played at the ceremony. Although she was very busy during the time we contacted her and some communication was understandably delayed, we had no problem promptly booking her for our day. Lots of our guests happened to work in musical theatre and are professional singers, and they all commented to me how great Rhian was and they thoroughly enjoyed her singing at the ceremony and during the reception drinks. As everything was completed virtually I briefly met Rhian on the day. She was lovely to chat to and I also knew I could trust her on the run up with communication with our wedding coordinator at the venue. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Rhian or book her for future events. Thanks Rhian for being part of our day!

Wow what can I say... Rhian was absolutely wonderful, we had the most amazing nights listening to her sing in the Martinis lounge. She was without a doubt the highlight of our cruise.

Oh what a night! I recently celebrated my 50th birthday and was searching for a keyboard/vocalist with a good PA system to provide the entertainment. I did an extensive search but was about to give up when I came across Rhian. She is an amazing vocalist and keyboard player with an incredible vocal range and a genuine friendly and approachable personality. Her huge repertoire of material from all time classics to contemporary songs left everyone very happy. She was asked multiple times for requests and played every one of them without batting an eyelid! Having Scottish roots myself, I asked her if she could play a couple of Scottish ceilidh tunes. She quickly found them on Spotify and offered to instruct the guests how to dance them. Rhian has a unique set of talents which she displayed on the night. She turned the whole evening into a joyous celebration of my birthday. Look no further than Rhian if you are looking to book a wonderful, friendly and multitalented performer.
