Dan was absolutely excellent and a perfect choice for my 60th birthday celebration. He was on time, looked great and was a good communicator. He played background music for his first set, then moved to a more upbeat tempo set for his second set.
Lots of people commented how good he was.
I would highly recommend him.

“We loved having Amiss Tori perform on our special day. We’ve lost count of the number of people who came up to us and said they wanted to have a drag queen piano singalong for their party after this weekend. Wonderful memories from a gorgeous day.”

We hired the DeeVines for our wedding, and I could not have been happier with the service received. From the initial communication and ensuring we were happy with the proposed set, to them singing our first dance song, absolutely phenomenal. I had so much positive feedback from guests, and the dance floor was packed for the whole of their set. If you want a professional, captivating, talented band, look no further, they made the night - cannot thank them enough!

I’ve seen her with her full band, as a 2 piece and as a solo acoustic, like tonight. She honestly excels at all 3. With an indie folk, verging on dream pop style, it’s a set full of her own originals tonight. She is very natural on stage with immense presence and is instantly likeable, giggling and talking about her excitement to play.
The appreciative crowd have embraced this set wholly – shouts for more, whooping and rapturous applause follow each and every song, and it’s obvious to see this means the world to Jessica.
An absolutely beautiful set from start to finish, honestly, we could listen to this all night. I urge any live music fans to go see Jessica Luise, a truly special vocal and real talent for song writing.

We booked Daisy Kate for our wedding in July, held at Mere Court Hotel, the best decision we have ever made! From first contact she has been a breath of fresh air, listening to all our choices of music, she arrived on the big day, and played through the ceremony, perfectly, a voice like an angel! Brought tears to our eyes, a joy to listen to. She played throughout the day and night, entertaining everyone, the dance floor was buzzing! I personally never left the dance floor! ????Daisy couldn’t have been more perfect, she made our day, and we would not hesitate to book her again. We love you Daisy Thank you for your time and all your energy!
