"We had a fantastic day, thank you. I have to say how fantastic Russell was
on the day, even better than we imagined. We had several comments from
people who were very impressed with Russell and a cousin of mine even asked
for his card for future reference so we can safely say he went down a storm!
On a personal note, we found Russell to be a lovely guy, very friendly and
very talented and he certainly helped to make it a perfect day for us. I
would be grateful if you would pass my email on to him or provide me with an
address as we would love to send Russell a personal thank you.
Line up:Standard line up: Solo vocalist with high quality backing tracks.
* Optional duo to 12 piece big band also available (please see booking options).
With swing music literally coursing through his veins (Russell is the son of an ex B.B.C. big band recording artist) he grew up with the sounds of Frank Sinatra Dean Martin Tony Bennett and Nat King Cole filling the air and so it came as no surprise that he followed in his father's footsteps and he has carved out a successful career performing across the UK and Europe.
With clients such as Ferrari Bentley and Jaguar amongst many other blue chip companies having him perform at corporate events along with private parties for David Beckham and many other celebrities his talent has remained in great demand.
Russell was also chosen to sing at the wedding of England and Manchester Utd footballer Wes Brown and his performance was highlighted in OK Magazine.
Recent television appearances including the hit reality show "four weddings" along with guest artist slots on Granada daytime TV have raised Russell’s profile even higher making him one of the most sought after performers around.
As well as remaining faithful to the ‘crooners’ of the past Russell’s repertoire includes many songs from the Robbie Williams swing album and also new tracks performed by Michael Buble such as Home Everything Lost Haven't Met You Yet and Hold on.
Available with live musicians from a duo to 12 piece big bands or big band backing tracks.
After 15 years in the business Russell’s professional approach is second to none!

"Hi Gemma
We had a fabulous wedding day, everything went perfect (even the weather which you cannot plan!!!!)
Firstly I would like to mention how down to earth and friendly Russell was, my Dad also commented on this.
His performance was absolutely excellent throughout, (I was dancing from the very beginning). He finished his performance on a real high, by firstly inviting myself and Alan onto the dance floor and then encouraging most of our guests to join us at which point he went on to perform a real up-beat song which really got everyone in the party mood.
I have seen quite a few of our daytime guests since our return from honeymoon and every one of them has made comment about Russell, one of my close friends also commented 'he was worth every penny'!!
Please pass on our sincere thanks to Russell for contributing greatly towards the best day of our lives.
Thanks again."

"Just a brief note before we head off on our honeymoon to say that we thought Russell was fantastic and went down a storm. In fact I believe he was so good that some of the guests would not let him off the stage, for which we apologise. Please thank him for going that extra mile to make our day so special."

"Now we have been brought back to earth after our honeymoon, we just wanted to write to you to express our immense gratitude in regard to our wedding reception. We really appreciate the distance you traveled for us and the discreet way you handled being a surprise to everyone.
The evening proved to be a great success with your help and all our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the music. The set you performed was excellent and really made the day special.
Thank you once again and we look forward to booking you for our future anniversaries! We would be pleased to recommend you to anyone in future"
