Booking Pippa for our book launch event was one of the best decisions we made! Pippa was absolutely fantastic - and seamless to work with from start to finish. She is super talented, versatile to any music and all the guests loved the vibrant atmosphere Pippa brought with her music. Highly recommend! Thank you, Pippa.

I thoroughly recommend Christine for any event or occasion, weddings, corporate or live music venue. She is superbly talented with a beautiful voice and an ability to engage her audience. Our guests commented as soon as they walked in the room, that Christine was amazing. We booked Christine to provide some engaging background music to add to the ambiance of our informal celebration event. And she certainly delivered. The volume was perfect and it made guests feel relaxed, listening while also able to chat. Great communication before the event regarding PAT testing and what was required. Christine arrived fully prepared and happy to tailor the set up and performance to our audience. Thank you for helping to make our event special and memorable for our community.

"Dan and the Beskydy band, you made our celebration so much fun and memorable. From the start, you answered every query promptly and were so accommodating to all our needs. We only had the hall for such a short time and you played for as long as you could. You saw when the guests needed upbeat music and when we needed a rest! Thank you so much for giving so much energy and warmth to the party, everyone loved it so much and the music was so beautiful and created the perfect atmosphere. "

Thank you for everything you did at Café Con Ron.
From our very first call, I felt the energy was exactly right, you immediately understood what we were trying to create and came back with great options on how to deliver it in a way that felt authentic. That made the whole process easy and genuinely enjoyable from the start. Across all four days you were consistently fantastic: always on time, kind, respectful, and dressed perfectly for the space. I also really appreciated how flexible and accommodating you were with playing acoustically and adapting to how we wanted the music to sit within the experience.
Most importantly, you entertained the guests brilliantly. You got people singing, dancing, and fully in the moment and the feedback we had from guests (and from the client) was genuinely amazing. Your performances played a huge part in making the activation feel alive, welcoming, and memorable. It was a pleasure working with you, and I’d love to find ways to collaborate again.

Wide Selection of Bands For Hire in London
For a flavour of the Caribbean, we've got rhythmic Steel Drums to sway and lilting Calipso groups to take you to an island paradise. The diversity of groups in London is a reflection of the multicultural mix of communities in the metropolis.
What about Lindy Hop and Swing Bands? They'll even provide a compere to talk you through the dance moves for an unforgettable night of jiving.
If you're feeling a bit rusty as far as your dance moves go, but still want to give it go - why not consider having a few dance classes? There are some excellent centres in central London specialising Jive, Swing and Lindy Hop - and the classes run at the weekend and after work - so it's easy to fit in few lessons prior to donning your dance shoes!
If you fancy something a bit more specific, turn back time to the 80's and get out the two tone gear associated with Ska - this fun, happy musical genre is alive and kicking and there's a whole world of Ska music and dance nights operating in London.
If you enjoy Jazz music, remember there is one light in London that never goes out - namely the great Ronnie Scott's. It's one of London's most iconic and revered music clubs - perfect for an evening of decadence.
Of course any mention of Jazz in London has to be paired with reference to legendary Jazz Cafe in Camden NW1 where they also now play House, Disco and Soul on Saturday nights.
There are hundreds of live music venues in London to inspire you, so treat yourself to a night out and sample the best live music in London and see where it leads you!
