"Thank you so much for playing at our wedding! We feel so lucky that we found you guys. From the moment we found your website and heard your clips, we had a good feeling about you and we weren't disappointed. The music was fantastic, you are both so talented and Lucy, your voice is just stunning! We had loads of great comments from our guests and Laura and I were particularly impressed with your version of Wings by Birdie which you learnt just for us! Thank you! Best of luck to you both. You deserve it!"

"This man is a legend & a true artiste. I got in touch with this gentleman to perform a few nice songs while I propose to my girlfriend. Not only did he put his heart out in his songs but he also helped me arrange everything that went into the proposal. From the selection of his songs to the texture of his voice, everything was just outstanding and I'd be ever so grateful to him for making that special moment and evening so memorable!"

"It’s March and still raining. I’ve trawled through some serious procrastination to decide where I’m going tonight; at least three decent live music offerings in Chester that I know of. And I’m sure the others were brilliant. Marblehead Johnson are, in their own words, a “tribute to the British Britpop music scene” and a “powerful combination of passion and quality.” A tribute band, to me, equals lunatic professionalism. To tribute a whole scene is a big ask. Good covers bands are rare enough, taking that enormous and unlikely step beyond random amateur recreation. But these guys really do tick the box of perfectionist, professional curators though. Friday night was time travel night with a set list that captured the point where British alt-rock got (largely) happy and popular (in a good way). A guitar dominated, looping and lurching opener with Ocean Colour Scene and The Riverboat Song; polished and convincing. Second song in and I’m braving the dance floor with the pointy shoed brigade. A few songs further and they offer me proof of their professionalism. A very-very-very long time ago I was lucky enough to make it into Brixton Academy and unfortunate enough to catch James on a sincerely off night. And I’ve heard James and Sit Down many times since: at home, on the radio, in DJ sets and covered-more-than-it-should-be. One of those beautiful songs that gets tired through over use. And on this particular Friday night I heard it come alive; all vitality restored. There were the things I expected; a good dose of Blur and Oasis both, Stereophonics, Bluetones and more, then some referencing back to foundation stones with The Who and The Jam. Marblehead Johnson switched between styles and musical voices with conviction; into acoustic things and seamlessly back out again. The magic of seeing grown men dance without a pint in hand happened repeatedly through the two sets. On any given set you pray for that one song you don’t see coming; the track you might flick through on the album that becomes something else entirely live. So it was with Blur’s Charmless Man. That perfect Blur poetry, simple, direct and delivered with energy. Marblehead Johnson are a good distance from being charmless. They are careful collectors and curators of songs; fine musicians and performers.!"

"Ant was absolutely fantastic. Aside from being a very talented singer and musician; he is incredibly, polite, versatile and overall lovely. He had fantastic communication, we spoke on video before the wedding, emailed and whatsapp’d, he’s very responsive. We discussed song choices and he was very receptive to the specific songs we wanted, including learning to play some new ones. Ant took the initiative on our wedding day, setting himself up and started, before we arrived, for our guests. He was able to be flexible when our timings changed on the day (we had an outside wedding in the UK… It rained when we were supposed to be walking down the aisle still went great, don’t worry). He ran across the field and played without his equipment for the ceremony when we had a break in the rain. We would defiantly recommend him and 100% hire him again for any other musician needs we may have!"

"I had the most amazing time last Saturday and this was due to the amazing Kids at the Back. They were simply amazing from start to finish. Jim and his fellow band members kept the whole party entertained! So many of my friends and family complimented around their amazing performances, engagement with the crowd and amazing mixture of songs. They catered for all the crowd! I cannot thank them enough … 100% will recommend them. Just superb! One of the best live bands we have ever experienced. So talented in every shape and form. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Love Ruth and John xx"

"Taylormade Live Band were all fantastic! We had really great feedback about the band from everyone. They created a superb atmosphere on the night at our wedding reception and had a great quality sound. They were also very professional from the booking stage through to the event itself and I would highly recommend them for a wedding or any other function!"
