Funeral Bagpiper

I contacted LMM looking for a 'bagpiper' for my Scottish father's funeral. From start to finish, throughout the whole process, I was kept up-to-date with what was happening, how to complete the booking, making sure I was happy with everything to finally being put in touch with the piper himself. I have no hesitation in recommending LMM and will definitely be using them again if needed.

We would definitely book her again!
Sarah-Jane’s contact with us was brilliant and we were confident in making our booking.
Thank you so much LMM

They played during our wedding

They played before, during and after our service at our wedding and they were incredible. They were able to play all the songs we requested. It added such an incredible element to our wedding. Excellent service and excellent price!

Absolutely brilliant tribute singer! We booked Sinatra my way as a last minute due to being let down by another act and he was absolutely brilliant, interacted with everyone and his voice was amazing! Our members are asking us when can we get him back already! last minute musicians were also great as they really helped us and were such an easy way to find and book a musician 1st class service!

Steel band The Emeralds

We had The Emeralds play at our wedding reception in September, and they were outstanding. It was raining in the morning on our day and we didn’t know if we’d be able to have them play outside but they did. They brought warmth, energy and laughter to our cocktail reception and we’re so grateful. We were whisked off for pictures so we never got to say thank you in person. But we loved the music they played and our guest were very impressed. So a big thank you to The Emeralds!

Communication excellent!

Communication between Sarah-Jane and the artist Mark Pearson was excellent. Couldn't fault it. The booking process was so straight forward. Mark's performance at our birthday celebrations was fantastic. He read the audience well and made our evening a huge success! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

We had Will play at our wedding on 23rd September 2022 as we love the looped guitar sound. Will had a varied repertoire and boy did we make the right choice.
He was amazing and all our guest without exception absolutely loved him. He has an amazing range of songs from classic to rock and will taylor his play list to whatever choices you choose. 100% thoroughly recommend him and hope we will be able to find somewhere where we can see and listen to him again.

Great Sax and easy booking process

Mark was super for our event as a roaming saxophone. Easy booking process. Would have liked to have known about the amount of space required for the musicians equipment setup beforehand, but we made a plan. I imagine that could be tricky for smaller venues. All in all, would recommend and will use again!

Perfect and attentive service

Perfect and attentive service! We hired Georgia (Dee) Thursting through last minute musician for a small private party at our home. They made contact several times before our party to make sure they had everything they needed and that we were happy everything had been covered. Georgia was incredible, and truly made our service. Would thoroughly recommend last minute musician, and Georgia, again and again!

Ceilidh with Ardverikie Ceilidh band

We booked a Ceilidh with Ardverikie Ceilidh Band last year. Had to postpone but they were good with that. The party could not have gone better. Everyone dancing from the first dance. The band responded well and the calling was good as there were a number who had not been to a Ceilidh before. Organisation and communication was good. Thoroughly pleased with the how everything went.

Friendly, Helpful and Efficient Service and Excellent Musicians

LMM organised the setting up of the event in a very efficient friendly and helpful manner. Even when our original act pulled out unexpectedly Sarah-Jane bent over backwards to ensure we got a similar act at a similar price, all at relatively short notice

We were delighted with tremendous set which Martin and Anna of the Ardvierikie Ceilidh Band performed for us all on our son’s wedding night; it exceeded all of our expectations!

Memorable Event

I contacted Last Minute Musicians to book The Midnight Due who sounded perfect for the 30th birthday I was organising, and they couldn't have been any better from start to finish. I felt supported, the booking was straight forward, payment was easy and the band themselves were absolutely amazing. They genuinely wanted to be there, they were accommodating, played the right music and at the right level for the atmosphere. Mid Night Due regularly checked in with us and all the guests couldn't be more complimentary of them, one couple whom asked for thier details as they were thinking of having them play at their forthcoming wedding. I'd certainly book them again.
