"Thank you Martyn and Jack for a fantastic afternoon of music and entertainment for Graham’s 70th. We may have been one of your smaller audiences (9 adults and 5 children from 6 months to 16 years!) but our excitement, enjoyment and involvement was immense! Your programme was ideally suited to our family gathering in a house in the Lake District, also the guest of honour was delighted to be able to join in with his banjo! You were highly professional and very flexible and even helped to rearrange the furniture to create the best space to play in! We have some splendid video footage had a great and memorable time, and we hope to welcome you to West Sussex for a fundraising event in the future! Thanks and love, Vanessa, 7th August 2019"

"Small Days guitarist Dave Merrick was the master of ceremonies, with vocalist Natalie Davies and sax player Brendan Whitmore joining him for the live songs. Dave unfolded the story at a well-judged pace, with records of Bessie Smith’s evocative voice even drawing applause from the attentive audience whenever they were included. The live contribution was important, too, and Natalie wisely steered away from imitating Bessie’s full-throated contralto to emphasis the singer’s lyrics with an upbeat swing on numbers like Need A Little Sugar and Send Me To The Electric Chair. Brendan Whitmore switched between soprano and tenor sax, the former particularly eloquent on Need A Little Sugar, the latter coming to the fore on T’Aint Nobody’s Business If I Do. All in all it was a satisfying journey through blues history with one of the great women who made the music what it became. Impressively, this was its first performance – and hopefully it will be seen again. - Tony Benjamin, Bristol 24/7 (Apr 08, 2017)"

"I booked Luke with 3 other guys (keys, drums, double bass and vocals) for my corporate event last Friday and I was very pleased with my decision. They were very professional, played great music and were greatly complimented by the guests. "

"The Spinettes were amazing! Beautiful ladies on the inside and out. True professionals at the top of their game - great voices and superb dancing. They were Happy to adapt set lengths to fit in with our day and guests which helped as we had a variety of different parts to the day. Our guests were blown away and by the end of the night everyone was up dancing! "

"We've had Sonia play a number of times at the bar and it's always a lovely night. She reads the crowd very well and plays a good mix of popular jazz tunes, all beautifully played and Sonia's vocals are warm, silky and wonderful. I would definitely recommend her!"

"On behalf of myself and the bride and groom, I wanted to thank the band for providing such fantastic music during the dinner service and for being so flexible with timings. The whole band were a pleasure to work with, extremely polite, helpful and not to mention very talented! It was wonderful to see people up and dancing before the dinner started and the style of music was completely in keeping with the Wedding theme. It would be a pleasure to work with you again."

"We are so happy that we made the decision to book The Pharaoh's for our wedding on the 3/09/22. Our guests are still talking about how good the band were 2 weeks later. We knew from the early stages of planning we wanted a band and fortunately the band were able to make our rearranged date. They stayed in touch throughout what would become nearly 2 1/2 years since making the booking and responded to our questions throughout the time period. They even went the extra mile and learnt our first dance song as it wasn’t one which they had played together before. They were fantastic on the night, the dance floor stayed full and they even let a few of our guests get up and perform with them. We were married in Yorkshire with the band coming from Essex. Everyone at first wondered why we hadn’t gone more local, but once the band started playing they understood. Would recommend to anyone wanting a band who can perform songs across the decades."
