  4. booked Nadia Violin for a wedding

    Absolutely amazing experience. Nadia learnt new songs for us and our ceremony. We changed things up to a week before which she was fine with including timings, songs and the order. Nadia looked great and suited the wedding, she was professional, set up early and played amazingly. We couldn't of asked for anything more. All of the guests loved her and so did we

  6. booked Elliot Porter for a wedding

    Verified

    Oh my god Elliot made the reception, with his ability to switch between a bit of background music to creating a sing along culture during the reception of our wedding, he really did smash it! The build up to the wedding was really easy and Elliot reached out to ask if there were any songs we did or didn't want him to play and he followed this brief perfectly. All of our guests loved his range of music which was incredibly varied and all those with upcoming weddings were questions how they could do something similar...I have already shared Elliot's details. Thank you Elliot, you are a star!

  7. booked Slav Franasowicz for a private event

    Verified

    Slav's performance at my son's party was amazing. He is a professional saxophonist and plays the instrument with passion. He is conscientious and made contact prior to the event and conscientiously prepared pieces I suggested. His versatility and flexibility is to be reckoned with. Everyone old and young had the best time! He is a true professional, with an extraordinary skill to gauge the crowd and choose pieces to suit. His talent to improvise is second to none. He has a wide repertoire. I would highly recommend Slav as you know you will get the best musician when you hire him. Thank you again Slav for making our celebration a memorable one!

  15. booked The Maxy Collection for a hotel / restaurant event

    Verified

    We booked Maxyne as part of a jazz trio for a 60th birthday celebration at a local restaurant. Along with two musicians on bass (Cameron) and guitar (Joao) they put on a fabulous gig throughout our evening and provided the perfect atmosphere and vibe for our party. Maxyne was great on the communication front and I had several calls with her before the event to talk through the space and layout, timings,sets,style, song preferences, etc. The band were also very accommodating in performing in two different spaces which meant setting up twice. As fellow Guildhall Students it was a joy to see them so at ease and enjoying performing and making music together. They also set the right tone from cool and understated whilst guests arrived and had dinner to livening up towards the end. Highly recommended and would definitely book again.
