Good Website & immediate communication

Last minute musicians web site was easy to navigate and find a suitable band. Then Sarah Jane was brilliant in booking the barn dance and all communication was clear and immediate.

100% recommend Last Minute Musicians for any event!

Sarah-Jane was super helpful in finding me a band to play Brazilian music for my birthday party! Last Minute Musicians was a great platform to help me find a band that fit my requirements & budget and then seamlessly managed the whole process of contract & payment. I would definitely recommend and would use them again for future events!

Lastminutemusicians made it easy to find an appropriate artist in a seamless and intuitive way. The administration support was exceptional, andthe fact that they emailed me two days before my event to check everything was ready was excellent service. The team are very quick to respond and make it straightforward to communicate with the artist to personalise requirements for the event.

Easy and Stress-free

Sarah-Jane and Alex were amazing at helping me find the perfect saxophonist for our work Christmas party. They handled all the communication on our behalf right up until the contracts were signed, which made the whole process stress-free. They even took the extra step of texting to let me know the musician was running slightly late, which was really reassuring. Their knowledge and experience made coordinating with the venue quick and easy. I would highly recommend them for anyone looking to book live music for an event.

David Pullen the bag piper

We hired David Pullen the bag piper from Rochester yesterday for my fathers funeral and he was outstanding, he listened to everything we wanted and contacted both the celebrant and funeral directors beforehand to ensure smooth running and organisation on the day, because of David being so professional it took allot of strain of us as a family on the day. We want to thank David for not only agreeing at such short notice but for his incredible playing and taking my dad home to Scotland. As a family we were honoured to be able to give dad the send off he deserved.

Thank you again to David

We would highly recommend

I wouldn’t use this group, Bullied whilst grieving

I wouldn’t use this group! They are associated with a Facebook group called UK music teachers . I posted on there as a completely new inexperienced person asking for a piano tutor , I provided a rough guide on budget which was lower than some people thought it should be , before I had a chance to mend , I was set upon by dozens of members, all tutors who use this site for work, I was ridiculed, insulted and publicly shamed particularly by the Admin Cathie who then blocked me from responding.

This came three weeks after the death of my mum and the money was from my mum, I just wanted to use it for some piano lessons ! I would have increased my budget if I’d known it was to low!
Thankfully I found a lovely guy outside the site who was able to work within my budget!
I probably wouldn’t like my children around tutors like this who feel it normal to bully another person who they don’t know and have no way of knowing what hardships I was going through, and they’re meant to be teachers.
The Facebook group is Uk Music Teachers and are the Facebook platform of this company !

Edit to add - They are now trying to disassociate themselves with the group that proudly announces that they are “ in association with Last Minute musicians “
I have the screenshots and will happily provide these , sadly there’s no way of adding images to reviews

We’re sorry to hear about your upsetting experience on Facebook.

This review isn’t about our business.

Although we originally created the “UK Music Teachers” Facebook group years ago, we no longer run or moderate it. It’s now managed entirely by others, and we have no control over the admins, members or behaviour in the group.

Any “in association with Last Minute Musicians” wording is legacy text from when the group was first set up. We’ve asked the current admins to remove outdated references to us.

Your experience happened within that independent Facebook group, not through our website or service.

A first-rate experience!

A first-rate experience! Sarah-Jane and her team at Last Minute Musicians were extremely professional and on the ball right from the get go! The team were approachable, friendly , reliable and knowledgeable throughout our party planning, enabling us to have a totally stress-free run up to our son’s 21st birthday celebration. Thank you so much for making the party planning experience such an enjoyable one. I will be recommending the team to my friends and work colleagues and will undoubtedly be requiring their services again in the future.

A fantastic and smooth process all round!

Just wanted to drop you a line and say thank you for arranging 'Noteworthy' for our wedding drinks reception. They were the ideal choice. The setting on the railway platform along with their choice of pieces were absolutely spot on. So many of our guests commented on how good it was.

A fabulous 1940’s night

Our bowling club was celebrating its 90th anniversary and we were looking for an act to perform at a 1940’s themed party. The website offered suitable suggestions but chatting directly with Sarah-Jane made the decision easy and the process simple. The Dulcet Tones were absolutely fabulous. So professional and friendly and made our evening perfect
