Verified booking on FixTheMusic"What an amazing, talented young woman. We booked Sally for my daughter's 40th birthday party and she was a delight. She has the ability to play beautifully while moving in and among the guests unobtrusively. She was perfect!!"
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"Firstly, Sally is beyond amazing!! She performed at our wedding back in August and her unbelievable performance was the perfect touch to our drinks reception! When talking about the wedding, so many guests have commented on how fabulous she was and wanting to find out her details. Not only is she so talented, but she is also so professional and a lovely person! We cannot thank you enough Sally! As others have said, worth every penny and wish we had booked her for the evening too!! Recommend 100%!"
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"I can’t recommend Sally enough. She performed at my wedding over the bank holiday weekend in August. She conducted herself very professionally even after she had to extend the background ceremony music after the car company picking up my wife took over 20 minutes longer than they should of. The music she played was beautiful and exceeded our expectations. Unbelievably talented and worth every penny. The only regret was we wish we had booked her for the evening as well as the ceremony and drinks reception. Many guests have come and asked for her details and passed comment on how amazing she was.
Thank you so much, Sally."

She was a pleasure to work with, completely professional, poised, and absolutely gorgeous! It was so refreshing to hear classical renditions of popular chart music and you could tell the customers truly enjoyed her performance from start to finish. A pleasure to work with."
