Testimonials

Hi Richard,

It’s taken me a good 8 weeks to write this email but I just wanted to let you know how incredibly impressed we were with Tim Watson and his band Deluxe, who played at our wedding at Circa on 1 September last year. I really didn’t anticipate what value for money we were getting. They were the highlight of the evening for both my husband and myself and everybody at the wedding commented on what brilliant performers Tim and his band were. I can’t dance at the best of times, let alone in a dress weighing a tonne, but I was on my feet on the dance floor, along with the majority of other wedding guests, for the entire performance. I was so happy! It just made my evening.

If you’re talking to Tim, please pass on Justin’s and my gratitude. Will definitely be recommending your services and Tim’s performance for a long time to come.

Hi Richard

Just a quick email to let you know Tim & his trio were absolutely fantastic.

Thank you so much for your suggestion, they were perfect. Tim was incredibly professional but also just a really great warm and friendly person. I hope they enjoyed the night as well.
