  1. booked Colette O'Leary for a private event

    Verified

    Colette performed at our work event for around 270 people. She arrived in good time, familiarised herself with the venue, before finding a good spot to be seated and play the accordion. Everyone thought it was a lovely touch to our French themed event. She played beautifully and added a lovely ambience. I would recommend booking Colette.

    Thom was BRILLIANT. I had been highly anticipating his playing italian-french canal-side vibed accordion during our wedding dinner for months and it was better than I'd even imagined. Guests were very impressed as well -- Highly highly recommend!

    David piped for us at my father's funeral in August 2024. He was a total professional and lent a touch of class to the whole ceremony. David was very helpful with planning the arrangements, working very effectively with our funeral directors. He was kind and friendly with our family and all the attendees. Highly recommended!!

    Hi I’m very pleased to write this review about David what an amazing Scottish man he played beautifully at my friends funeral, David piped my friends coffin in which was so emotional afterwards David added a couple of tunes for us all which was such a lovely touch! My friend would have loved it. I highly recommend David he knows what he is doing and set everything up which was one less thing for me to worry about. Big thanks David Fiona..
