booked Paper Planes for their event at Luton Hoo Hotel Golf & Spa in Bedfordshire

“Paper Planes entertained our audience of an age range of 25 to 75 with an equally broad range of music. Sam is a talented musician, who has a great rapport with the audience and makes the most of their ability to be flexible with a totally live performance. I would certainly be very happy to recommend them.”

“Thank you so much for taking part in my 50th birthday celebrations – you lived up to all my expectations and more. Your swing set was amazing, followed by some really great songs including my all time favourite 'wherever you will go'. I totally loved it and it made the evening so so special. Thank you for learning it especially for me. As you know I have always loved your singing and guitar playing but tonight you excelled. Everyone loved your performance . You are a true professional and fantastic musician. I can’t wait to hear you play again soon. In fact I will follow you wherever you go!”

“I can’t thank you enough for the fabulous show you put on for us on Saturday. The atmosphere you created and the momentum with which you performed all evening was awesome. Everyone felt the same and I don’t think the evening would have been quite so brilliant if we hadn’t had you and your talent. I hope you weren’t too tired, I was conscious that you did all the setting up/and packing away as well as performing for hours. Thank you so very much.”
