The Fortes were incredible

Wow! We booked The Fortes for our wedding and they blew the roof off! Absolutely outstanding. We could not fault them. Incredible musicians and fantastic vocals. The dance floor was packed all night long. The songs they sing are perfect for a crowd. Everyone at your wedding will know a song and have the chance to dance the night away. I would book them again in a heartbeat. Thank you for being so brilliant, you made our night.

Very fair with no hidden costs

Very fair with no hidden costs. A great way to serve the music industry without charging percentage cuts and trying to get in the middle as most other agencies do. Last minute musicians are simply a platform to post your own card on with one simple listing fee.

Tom the Bagpiper was excellant with a wide knowledge of the tunes that my elderly parents asked for and a kind, patient manner. His bagpiping had them tapping their fingers and toes, my Mum sang along and he was impressed that she knew all the words (as were we).

Great Service at every step

Last Minute Musicians really have the artist at heart in their process from start to finish you know exactly where you stand with a great online booking process. Can’t speak highly enough of them. For this particular gig they acted in our best interests ensuring we were fully informed every step of the way.

Last minute musicians were really helpful in finding a band for a 70th birthday party. After making a few enquiries, Sarah-Jane contacted me and helped find a really great band for our event. Highly recommend!

I found this company online when searching for a singer for a private birthday party.
The website is easy to navigate and communication was great throughout, I had lots of questions and replies were quick and informative.
Our chosen artist was a huge success, thank you.

Great performance and service

We came across Last Minute Musicians when searching for a harpist for our wedding.

After a bit of research, we chose Bethan Gillard.  Her music was beautiful and just what we wanted.

She played four or five songs that we selected for the ceremony, and then she magically moved rooms while we were having the group photo's, so she could play for the duration of the drinks reception.

The comments from our guests afterwards were highly complimentary.  Bethan was lovely, very talented and really made our wedding special.

The booking process was nice and easy, as were the payments.
Sarah-Jane was always in contact with us, and has been great all the way through.

Overall, 5 stars for both.  We couldn't have been happier.

I wanted to leave a 5* review for Daniel Brennan, Saxophonist

I wanted to leave a 5* review for Saxophonist Daniel Brennan. He played for us at a hen party last weekend and he was absolutely fantastic. Daniel accommodated all of our needs, including making sure he was a special surprise for the bride to be! Daniel has an extensive play list and is very talented. On top of that he was friendly, approachable and professional at all times. Can’t recommend him enough!

Musician For Funeral Service

We recently hired Mark Burton to play at our Father’s funeral. Mark was amazing and he added a beautiful touch to a very sad occasion. It was a pleasure to work with Mark, he really understood what we wanted and absolutely delivered. Thank you Mark, you did a great job! Christine Purcell.
