  9. booked Jessica Boyd for a wedding proposal

    Verified

    I hired Jessica for a surprise 30th Birthday & marriage proposal for my partner. She was an absolute pleasure to work with. She replied almost immediately to my enquiry online and was pleasant and very helpful. We had a lovely initial conversation over the phone she was incredibly helpful with song choices and recommendations both over the phone and on WhatsApp for the entire duration leading up to the event. She was enthusiastic and keen to play the songs I requested even though they were not listed on her profile. On the day she arrived 30mins before the booking and was incredibly friendly & organised. The location was outdoors and she was able to find it using just a drop-pin that I had sent her via WhatsApp. Jessica brought all her equipment and set up with no inconvenience or distractions and even took selfies with my sister who was helping to plan the event! Once my partner arrived she played for us for an hour which was absolutely wonderful, she wished him a happy birthday and we and a nice chat once she had finished playing. Absolutely superb musician. We will definitely recommend her to friends and family and I would book her again for future events. Thank you Jessica for making the day so special. It wouldn’t have been the same without you. 5 stars.

  11. booked Gemma Louise Doyle for a birthday party

    Verified

    Just Wow! Amazing Surprise for me. Gemma had an amazing voice and a great presence. Would definitely recommend and we are desperately looking for an excuse to have her back! Our choice of music was not all the songs that she would usually perform but she was very happy to learn my favourites to make it all the more special. She was very sweet and looked fabulous. Gemma was booked as a surprise for my 40th birthday during lockdown so she only performed to a small gathering of socially distanced friends in my garden but she certainly made an impresson and the neighbours thouroughly enjoyed also.

  14. booked Samuel Warner for a private event

    Verified

    A huge thank you to Sam for his support, musicianship and time for such a tricky brief. We are so grateful that Sam was able to help us form the assembled quartet for this Celebration of Life service. Everyone was blown away by the music, and we have had so many comments about the high quality and the immensely moving nature of the performances. We are indebted to Sam for assisting us with this, and all the prior preparation, at such a difficult time. His positive nature, extensive repertoire, willingness to work with our pianist & singers and ‘can do’ attitude to everything we were asking for was just the most calming thing for us, and we are really so pleased that we found him! He was polite, professional, super respectful & a delight to work with throughout – thank you Sam, you’re a superstar.

    Edi was a wonderful addition to my wedding. He really set the ambience for the drinks reception. he was always communicative and flexible when requesting songs. Many people commented about what a nice touch he added to my wedding. It was just a shame that I was so busy talking to people I didn't have time to enjoy his musicianship fully!
