Excellent weddinng drinks reception musician
Fabrizio F booked Huw Jones for their Wedding in London • March 2024
“We booked Huw to play for our wedding drinks reception. We made a fantastic choice! Huw was very professional, easy to get in touch with before our wedding and did a fantastic job on the day. I need to credit him with helping to create a wonderful atmosphere and I need to give him a lot of praise as he was very helpful and easy to work with on the day. Thank you Huw!”
Great set for my wedding drinks reception
Mat F booked Huw Jones for their Wedding in Hertfordshire
“We booked Huw to perform at our wedding during the drinks reception. Huw played a great set of acoustic songs, a mix of classic and modern pop, and created the perfect atmosphere. Huw was easy to work with, prompt to reply to message, arrived on time and liaised with the venue. I would certainly book him again and thoroughly recommend him to others”
Claire S booked Huw Jones for their event in London
“Huw came along to our Market Jubilee Celebrations and entertained the crowd. His music fit perfectly and created a really great vibe. Thanks so much Huw!”
Huw Jones review: 15 September 2021- Private house party for 30 guests
Jeremy S booked Huw Jones for their event in London
“Huw was everything we needed for our party on Friday. Hosting a joint birthday party for two visiting Malaysian dignitaries, we wanted someone who could play both professional background music as well someone who could also get the party going - and Huw was superb at both. Huw's repertoire was impressive, his range and pitch was spot on and he is an extremely proficient guitarist. He's also a great bloke! I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him and look forward to booking him again in the future.”
A sprinkling of magic added to a great event
Bharat P booked Huw Jones for their event in Surrey
“Huw entertained at my 50th Birthday party. He arrived on time, was set up within minutes, did a quick sound check and was ready to go. He absolutely understood what was required. It was an outdoor event and luckily the weather was kind. He performed tracks that he had picked and they were bang on for the kind of crowd that was at the party. Classics from the 80s (as per my brief), some well know jazz numbers and some modern stuff. All done in his own style and his own arrangements. The party guests (a few who are professional musicians) commented on his great voice and the quality of his own arrangements. Although it was one man and his guitar, he captured the mood, played a 2 hour set and even got the crowd boogeying. He helped make a great event into a magical and fun event. I couldn't recommend him highly enough.”
