Birthday party Singing Guitarists for hire in Barnsley
Latest reviews of our Birthday Party Singing Guitarists in Barnsley
"Write a review for a a guitarist that did our ceremony and reception music at my wedding this weekend. Let me tell you about Leon Marshall... What a legend. Super chilled, very flexible and incredibly talented ... there were so many "oh he's good isn't he" "What a lovely tone to his voice" and "gosh where did you find the guitarist, he's brilliant". Such a big repatoire of songs and letting you select the ones you want is fab allows the day to be even more personal. Leon very kindly learnt a couple of songs for us, one as a suprise to my now HUSBAND which was a really precious suprise as we signed the register. But also our aisle song.... Oh my god did Leon nail that. Successfully getting the normally very stoic groom to absolutely lose it was great work. 🤣 Finally, the communication was brilliant. Leon was really responsive and nothing was too much he sent a recording before the big day of the song he'd learnt and I had a little excited cry of anticipation which was a lovely extra little moment. Thank you for everything Leon, we will be on the look out to come to a live gig some time to continue to enjoy your wonderful talent. 🩵"

"Tim was fantastic. From the beginning, he was great with communication and allowed me to choose songs from his set list. He arrived in good time, set himself up efficiently and entertained the crowd for two sets. Tim was just what we were looking for; background music with fingerpicking style and certainly no thrashing! I would highly recommend Tim and would book him again. Thanks so much!"
