“City Strings delivered an absolutely unforgettable performance at my 80th Birthday carvery lunch at Leeds Castle; the kind of musical magic that doesn’t just accompany an event but elevates it.

From the very first note in the garden during pre-lunch drinks, they set a tone of elegance, warmth and celebration. Guests arrived to a soundtrack that felt perfectly curated for the moment - light, joyful and beautifully played. Their presence immediately made the occasion feel special. As we moved into the Long Gallery and then the Tudor Hall, City Strings handled the transitions with total finesse. They seemed to read the room instinctively, adjusting their energy and repertoire to match the flow of the afternoon. Whether guests were chatting, moving between spaces or settling in for the first part of the carvery, the music always felt exactly right. Their range was astonishing. From musicals to pop favourites to classical pieces, every performance was polished, expressive and full of personality. They didn’t just play - they connected. The guests adored them and the atmosphere they created was nothing short of brilliant. City Strings were, in every sense, outstanding. Professional, intuitive and musically superb, they turned a special birthday into a truly memorable celebration. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.” Read more

This all-acoustic band delivered something truly special. With no microphones, no amplifiers, just pure musicianship, they filled the garden with a warm, rich tone that technology simply cannot replicate. Their instruments blended beautifully with their voices, creating a sound that was perfectly balanced — lively enough to set every foot tapping, yet gentle enough that people could still converse comfortably. It was the ideal atmosphere for a summer celebration. Guests were captivated from the first song. Many commented on how refreshing it was to hear music performed so naturally, with such clarity and charm. Even the function management and catering staff were impressed, asking where on earth this remarkable group had come from. The band’s ability to engage, entertain, and elevate the mood without ever overpowering the event was exceptional. The Roaming Numerals brought joy, rhythm, and a wonderfully human touch to the evening. They were brilliant, and they deserved every accolade that was offered. Well done, Roaming Numerals — you made the party unforgettable ” Read more
