Testimonials
'Ian was absolutely fantastic. All of our guests thoroughly enjoyed. He was extremely professional keeping in contact prior to the event and arriving within plenty of time to set up. Will certainly look to use again for future events.' Rebecca Chandler - McCarthy & Stone (Private party - London)

'We organised an Indian music show and Ian played the sax for us. He was the star of the show and no one would ever say he was playing those songs for the first time. He is very dedicated, talented and an amazing person to work with. And when he is on stage it's like magic..!!'
Sandhya Anantharaman - Blue Feather (Devan Ekambaram & Diluckshan Jeyaratnam LIve show - Ilford)
'Absolutely First Class!
Ian played for our annual dinner and dance last week, he is a genuine and professional musician. The evening was such a success, and as a result, the future captain booked Ian for the following year on the evening! Leading up to the event, communication was second to none and the reassurance from Ian of his experience of playing at events was welcomed. It was great to work with Ian, who was organised and friendly. I really cannot thank you enough for helping make the evening a success for the club.' Kristy & Steve Dowman (Belhus Park golf club - Gold Club Dinner)
'Ian literally hit all the right notes. He was totally flexible and our guests loved the laid back style and choice of music. Many thanks for helping us make the opening successful.'
Penny Brown - Inn-telligence ltd ('La Bocca' Italian restaurant opening, Portsmouth)
'FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!' Bianka Dontas - Elavon merchant services (Xmas corporate event)
'Ian is an extremely talented musician with a wide repertoire. He is a consummate professional who was a pleasure to work with. He kept in regular contact prior to the event and was happy to accommodate us in any way he could. His set list was perfect for the occasion and he also ensured that the sound levels were kept to a reasonable level, so as not to impinge on people who had to continue with their business day. We would have no hesitation in recommending Ian for any occasion and we look forward to dealing with him again in the future' . George Yard Shopping Centre (Summer music event)
'We recently asked Ian to perform at an awards evening for us. He did a wonderful job and his music really gave the event a great atmosphere. The variety of songs played, were fantastic and were well received by our guests. A hugely talented saxophone player that we will be asking back to our future events.' Paris Baker - Davis Group Loss Adjusters (Award ceremony)
'Thank you for such a lovely start to our working day! It was a real treat to come into our building and hear the sweet sounds of your saxophone and you playing lovely Christmas music. I wish we could have that every day ~ Thank you!' Andrea Whitfield - Canada Life Ltd
'Ian came along to our office Christmas party to provide the background music during our sit-down meal. Throughout his performance, Ian created the perfect ambience with his wide-ranging repertoire and had diners singing along, enjoying the vibe. We would thoroughly recommend using Ian to provide the entertainment at any party. He is fantastic!'
Becky Woods, Head of Central Operations - Orange Group in UK
'We were all very pleased with Ian's performance last night. He arrived with ample time and was extremely friendly. Ian played throughout the reception continuously and was very upbeat. We would definitely consider using Ian again for future events. Thank you very much!'
Charlotte Barmby - Event Executive Collective Minds - (Patek Phillippe anniversary dinner)
'Ian was booked to play at a private Christmas party and then a couple of weeks later for Christmas lunchtime entertainment in a large outside covered courtyard - There were many comments after on how good Ian was and the choice of music.
Ian was equally as good the second time he performed. It was a totally different venue and occasion. It shows how versatile Ian is. He can perform in any venue and for any occasion. Similarly, the comments were as good after this performance too - I would definitely recommend Ian, he would certainly enhance any occasion!'
Sue Halliday Access and permits manager, Devonshire Square EC1
'Ian was extremely professional throughout the event. He arrived early in order to work with us to find the right location to arrange his equipment so that it did not impede on the event's proceedings and was safe around other guests.
Ian was dressed extremely smart and was very personable, working with our team at all times to ensure we were happy with the output - which we were ecstatic with. His set was perfect
for the occasion and we received numerous compliments throughout the night on his performance. He has an excellent understanding of what to play for the occasion and was very mindful of the output levels so as not to drown out conversations but perfectly compliment. I wouldn't hesitate in booking Ian again and he was a joy to work with.'
