"I booked Catherine as a tribute to a serviceman departing the military after 35 years. She played as he entered the room and throughout. She was exactly wat I had hoped for and provided the perfect start to the evening. Her music was lovely throughout the meal and I couldnt recommend highly enough"

Catherine Ashcroft
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"Catherine's professionalism was brilliant. She was unable to perform for our wedding. However, her husband stepped in and he played beautifully. We were grateful that she was able to organise an alternative for us and that her husband Steven could play just as well. We had so many comments at our wedding about how lovely it was to hear the pipes being played. We would highly recommend both Catherine and Steven for their communication, professionalism and flexibility to ensure that ‘the show must go on’. It has been lovely working with them both over the last year. "
