Helpful & wide range of great acts

Working with Sarah-Jane, Lucy and Alex was great in the run up to our corporate drinks reception for 1000 guests. Online they have a great range of musicians, and we found Emily, a Manchester-based pianist, very quickly, who was available and fantastic. Paying the deposit and sharing event details was incredibly easy from start to finish. I will absolutely be coming to LMM again in future.

Professional expert assistance with finding appropriate musicians

I discovered Last Minute Musicians online while trying to find someone to sing carols for an elderly, housebound friend of mine. Communication was prompt and professional at all times and I ultimately employed Sarah Dunbar to deliver the concert and she was excellent. She was kind and caring and sang like an angel. She certainly made my friend's & my Christmas - we will never forget her performance!
I have no hesitation in recommending both LMM and Sarah to everyone.

Recommend to ALL

I found last minute musicians during a really difficult time , whilst planning my grandfathers funeral. And what a pleasant find you were. Right from the initial contact I felt as ease, it was so straight forward ( I needed that as my head was focused on 100 things ) , communication was fantastic , Sarah Jane was a delight to work with, paperwork was punctual and all was booked and sorted in two days ! And then we had the pleasure of meeting our preformed …Wow. I knew Lara was a very talented vocalist but she exceeded our expectations. The has the voice of an angel and we were all blown away. I’m confident my grandad heard the songs sang to him and Lara has provided us with a beautiful memory we shall treasure forever from a tough day. Right from the start of our communication Lara was just the right balance of professionalism but also approachable human with a really kind heart. No matter what question I had or request I made she always went above and beyond to make it heard and we can’t recommend or thank her enough. What a talented lady overall a kind human being with an angelic voice . We as a family can’t thank Lara and last minute musicians enough and will be recommending to ALL !

Great Service!

We booked a band called Jazz You Like It for a corporate Christmas Party and we were very pleased with the whole process.

Firstly, Sarah-Jane was very helpful with arranging everything that we wanted from the band. This included timings and songs that we preferred as well as adjustments to how many people we wanted in the band and what instruments we wanted as well.

Secondly, the band itself was lovely and was exactly what we wanted. They were all really friendly and the music was just as described and showcased on the website.

I would 100% recommend to anyone who is thinking of booking live music through Last Minute Musicians as the service that we were provided was exceptional.

Highly professional with personal touch

We booked the wonderful singer, Becky Shell, through LMM for a big party which was a new experience for us. LMM were very approachable and reassuring, and also very professional. Everything was completely smooth, well organised and went like clockwork. Highly recommend them as a company.

Highly recommended

Thank you to Sarah-Jane and her team for their fantastic assistance in arranging a performer for our company's annual long-service lunch celebrations.
As a past user of Last Minute Musicians, for a family occasion, I know that they would be perfect in finding a suitable, high quality performer for our event. They did not let me down - thanks, again.

Incredible Experience!!!

I spoke on numerous occasions to Sarah-Jane, who was incredibly helpful & informative.
She recommended a lovely lady called Camilla to play the harp at our Mum’s funeral, I spoke with Camilla who was fantastic in making suggestions with our music choices.
Camilla was phenomenal & I’m so pleased that the service was recorded, so that we can play back the music to listen to time & time again,
Thank you.

Last Minute Musicians delivered above and beyond!

Last Minute Musicians delivered above and beyond for my Hindu mandap wedding ceremony. I was after live classical music to supplement and compliment the wedding ceremony with the priest, for the guests and audience to enjoy and immerse within the religious ceremonies. Sarah-Jane and the team at LMM were very responsive to all queries, and found a suitable act, Royal Bollywood Fusion Strings, for the big day. They were communicative, transparent and addressed all queries promptly, establishing rapport and a line of trust as a wedding client. The musicians themselves, led by Sandeep, were classy, and promptly addressed our questions with the music and coordinating with the priest to logistical issues. The guests enjoyed the music and we loved it!

Helpful and professional, highly recommend

I contacted Last Minute Musicians to book a cellist for my wedding. They were incredibly helpful in suggesting potential performers and the customer service was excellent as we went through the booking process. They also stayed in touch throughout the period ahead of the event to ensure all went smoothly and contact just ahead of the day to wish us well was a lovely touch. It was a wonderful experience and we couldn't be happier with the act that we booked for the day, Cello Magic. Thank you Sarah-Jane and the team!

Saxophonist - Millicent, will not disappoint

Last Minute Musicians were recommended by a friend and the Musician did not disappoint. The company was professional, communicated regularly, and was organised. Milicent, the saxophonist who played at my son's wedding was excellent. I definitely recommend anyone thinking of using this company to go ahead and book for a wonderful musical experience.
