We booked Martin for New Year’s Eve and he was absolutely amazing — he totally exceeded our expectations. He adapted beautifully to the night, starting with a relaxed ambient set while guests ate, then moving on to singing and getting the whole restaurant involved with games and dancing. As the evening progressed, his guitar performance was incredible, followed by a DJ set that carried us into the New Year in the best possible spirits. Martin was genuinely outstanding, and we’re already talking about booking him again this year. More...

Martin provided the music for my 60th Birthday Party last night and once again he was fantastic. This is the second time I have hired Martin, the first time being for our wedding. He has a wonderful voice (he sings live music as well as providing a disco) and he played exactly the music I wanted. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Thanks again Martin! More...

Martin is amazing!! Honestly if I could give more stars I would. What truly made our wedding day special was that Martin was able to play the song I requested for my entrance on the piano! ! It will be a moment I will cherish forever. Martin is truly amazing at what he does, and everyone at the wedding spoke highly of him. Martin done the music for us all day and evening, mixing it up with piano, guitar acoustic and also the disco. Thank you for making our day amazing MC More...

We had an amazing night at Tivoli with Martin. He involved us in the gig, we borrowed instruments and played them (badly) and he indulged in more than one “one more”. Great night!

Martin John made the finishing touch to our wedding day! Martin was informative, helpful and so great at adapting to our wishes throughout the wedding preparations. It was excellent getting a live demo for each of our ceremony pieces, which made us feel very relaxed and excited for our day. The evening part of our wedding was even better, he just read the audience perfectly and kept everyone on the dance floor, especially throughout his ‘live’ act - to which he has a wonderful voice! We would HIGHLY recommend him for any event! More...

Martin provided the music for my 40th birthday party over the weekend and I am so incredibly pleased I hired him for it. He was absolutely brilliant in the run up to the party, communicating with me about the music I wanted months in advance (he provided a survey for me to fill in with what sort of experience I wanted my party to be) and was incredibly professional and very warm and friendly. If I need a DJ for future events I will definitely ask Martin again. I've also had some lovely comments from my guests about how great the DJ was and what great music he played so he was very popular amongst the guests too. More...

Wedding DJ
Martin is an absolutely FANTASTIC DJ.
Martin hosted our wedding evening reception disco on 27/04/24 and he was everything we could have wanted and more.
His enthusiasm, ability to accommodate specific requests of ours (not just music, but prior to the event asking for shout outs/themed song blocks at certain parts of night), reading the dancefloor, his friendly manner, and overall he is a fantastic person you can trust.
He was on time, set up without any worry, and played our specific playlist only which was exactly what we wanted.
We were so grateful to have Martin facilitate our wedding, and we will certainly be using Martin again. Would strongly recommend for all occasions.

We booked Martin and his colleague at short notice for our Presidents day at Huntingdon Rugby Club. The guys were fantastic and put an exclamation mark at the end of a great day. Not only brilliant singers and musicians they understood the crowd and once the first dancers took the floor they didn't sit down for the 3 hour set. (It was meant to be 2 hours, but the repeated chants for one more song were received with good grace and flexibility) Huntingdon Rugby Club would highly recommend Martin, for professional delivery of a great product More...

Reflecting back on 2023 and those that had the biggest impact. Martin played at our wedding at Sheene Mill, Melbourn in October and was outstanding. Martin did some instrumental piano pieces during ceremony and then acoustic guitar. Also played during the wedding breakfast and disco and joined in with the band. Martin is a very talented musician and would definitely recommend . More...

I'm not sure where to start. We booked Martin as one of our first vendors and was absolutely fantastic. From the get, Martin was really engaged and made sure all our boxes were ticked.
Even accommodated our last-minute changes with ease and took off a lot of stress. The whole day was so smooth with regard to music and sound. We asked Martin to sing the main song for the bridal walk and accommodate a guest to sing during the ceremony (arranged prior consultation with the guest), help me sing a song for my wife (encouraged me when the nerves kicked in), and well as all the MC tasks. Superb work and all the guests loved the music during the disco session. Thank you for the great work, definitely recommend Martin, and will most certainly book you again.

We booked Martin for our wedding and what can I say, he did not disappoint. From the start to finish the whole process was so smooth amid the constant changes. Everything we asked for was catered for, and not only that it was done with passion and joy, which made our day and evening even more enjoyable. The bridal entance song was performed acoustically, beautiful, and the music matched the theme and setting. All the MCing for the day which again was done so well, kept the guests entertained and laughing. As a special surprise, I asked Martin to help me sing a song to my new wife and he not only helped but also motivated me to do and it was really good, everyone enjoyed it and sang along. Finally, the music for the reception. All the set up was also completed smoothly, we do not know when but it was set up ready to go, coordination with the photographer to ensure it went smoothly. Thank you so much, definitely recommend and will most certainly be back for more. Love Louise and Jay More...

Martin provided he services for my wedding this week and he was absolutely amazing.
He had brilliant communication leading up to our event to get a feel of the music and style we wanted.
His live sets were brilliant. It was an amazing atmosphere with him singing and playing the guitar then later on, the keyboard. It was just so perfect and made the day feel magical with live singing and music.
All of my guests commented at how lovely it was and what a lovely touch having live music was.
Martins timings were perfect and everything on the day just flowed so well.
Thank you again for helping our day feel so special. I would definitely recommend Martin for any special occasion.

We hired Martin with really short notice and he was brilliant. He was able to source the music that we wanted, and was highly adaptable on the fly, but alway make sure we were happy with any changes first. It was so perfect. Martin also did the Anniversary Dance Game, which he didn't know before but learnt and which went smoothly. For that Game I had also requested a song which wasn't going to long enough and he was able to source another which went with the first choice to enable songs to be played for the whole game. 10/10 would highly recomend Martin More...

Martin was the most accommodating, polite and professional musician and DJ we have ever met. We are so grateful for everything he did on our wedding day making it so special.
From the moment we made our initial enquiry to the final hours prior to our big day, his communication was incredible. His
repertoire of live music is extensive and beautifully performed. Martin went out of his way to best suit our day.
He read the room very well when DJing in the evening and guests dancing right till the end knowing when to play the right song and taking requests. Our guests were very complementary of his performances and music.
We cannot thank you enough Martin for making this aspect of our day so memorable and easy. We cannot recommend him enough for your upcoming events!!

rtin is Brilliant entertainer! We hired him for my mother’s birthday celebrations in November and from the start he was friendly and professional, asked what kind of genres of music we liked, kept in tough re times and requirements. On the night of the party Martin turned up early, set up a brilliant set with lights and speakers. Martins live music is wonderful, he has an amazing voice and the set was something for everyone, young and old! In between live music sets Martin played all the music we has suggested. During the second live music set Martin involved the crowd, with instruments and laughs it got everyone involved, the children particularly enjoyed this. By the end of the evening the dance floor was full, everyone commented on how good he was and it made a special night even better. We will definitely look to hire Martin for other events, brilliant 🤩 More...

Martin made our wedding
Every single one of our guests commented on how amazing he was. We had Martin all day, he sang and played guitar during our drinks reception, played piano during our wedding breakfast, DJ’d in the evening and played live sets to get our guests on the dance floor.
That is exactly what it did, the dance floor was full, everyone had an amazing time and everyone commented on how incredible he was. We asked Martin to sing an acoustic version of our first dance, which our wedding video will be set to and he did such an amazing job of it. There is no doubt that he was a huge part in making the whole day a huge success. We cannot thank him enough for the atmosphere he created throughout the day. Do not hesitate in booking Martin for your event, you will not regret it.

Martin was helpful and flexible when covid disrupted our plans. He was efficient and communicative at all times and, on the day, arrived on time. During the event he judged the level of music needed, and the style of music, to suit the people dancing. It was ages 4 months to 88 years and they all loved the disco! Highly recommended and would book again. Thanks! More...

Mark Osborne
We hired Martin for our wedding in June 2022 and can't recommend him highly enough. We had him there all day and really worked him hard, playing classical music on the grand piano prior to the ceremony and pop songs afterwards, then more pop songs on the guitar all afternoon and finally DJing in the evening until the end of the night. Of all the people we dealt with in arranging our wedding, Martin was by far the friendliest and best at communication, discussing what we wanted and what he thought would work better from his experience. On the day he was adaptable, switching to playing the guitar outside as it was a beautiful day, rather than indoors as we originally planned and even after playing for 2 hours in the blazing sun, he offered to play even longer as it was still such a lovely evening (an offer we gratefully accepted). Many of our guests commented on how good Martin was and how much they were enjoying his playing. He really helped to make our day even more special than it already was, so I'd like to say a huge thank you to Martin. More...

We were so impressed by Martin who was the DJ at our special Safari themed birthday party at the Wisteria Hotel in Oakham. He provided a mixture of great disco music with live singing and guitar playing which helped to make the party a magical event to remember. He had everyone joining in and up on the dance floor...and outside for the Conga! Martin has the skills to read the audience and adapt his repertoire accordingly; he had us line-dancing, being part of the orchestra with percussion instruments and enjoying every minute of the music. He is a talented professional. Thank you Martin. More...
