My passion has always been singing. I couldn't believe my good fortune when I had the opportunity to sing and dance in musical theatre. After joining a choir it enabled me to sing solo in some wonderful venues like the Symphony Hall and the Warwicks Arts Centre.

One of my most memorable nights was to sing at the Royal Albert Hall.

The Classics from Connie, Judy and Brenda have always been on my personal playlist of tunes to singalong and dance to. The Rat Pack of Sinatra, Davis and Dean Martin when it was all about class and style...I love them all.

Sometimes at every Wedding there is that awkward time when the Sit down meal has ended and the evening guests have not yet arrived and there is not much to do, then let me entertain your guests with some Vintage Classic songs that will not only relax all your guests but also bring back fond memories of golden days of the past.

Call me or email me for further details and I can put a collection together that will make your Wedding one to remember !

I booked Martin to DJ for my 40th Birthday party on the recommendation of the venue and he did a fabulous job!  Martin contacted me before the party to find out what songs and genres i would like to be played. I wanted a real mix of music from 80's up to current charts as well as some special requests. As we had invited children of all ages to the party i needed a real mix to keep everyone dancing!  Martin was awesome and so friendly interacting with the kids and the adults which gave the party a really great vibe and kept people dancing even after the bar had closed and the music had stopped. Definitely the sign of a good party. Well done Martin and thanks for the great tunes! 

Hi Martin hope you're well? 

Class 1 DJ's played my wedding on 18/03/2018 and did a wonderful job!!! Music was on point and we had a lot of compliments from our guests at the variety of music that they played. 

They smashed our entrance to the evening reception hosting the cake cutting and introducing us to the room. The team made sure everyone had a great time and something to dance to and were very accommodating with song requests.

My wife and I Would highly recommend these DJ's for any occasion and we will be booking again for future parties!

Thanks again

Very entertaining, charming person. Thoroughly enjoyable evening.

We are four glamorous ladies with a wealth of musical experience between us. Add some close, spine tingling harmonies and a sense of fun and you have "Tickled Pink".

We would be the perfect choice for that ‘hanging around’ period before the wedding breakfast, perhaps during the queuing for the reception line, to accompany the champagne and canapés and to entertain during the (often quite lengthy) time needed for the photographs..

We would hope to bring a warmth and personal touch to your special day.

Our repertoire consists of traditional barbershop songs, modern arrangements of old favourites and some ingenious takes on current chart hits. We are, of course, adding new material all the time. Given some notice, we are also able to consider special requests. Having no musical instruments to worry about and the capacity to sing with or without microphones, we feel that we provide a pretty unique and versatile entertainment that will appeal to a wide audience. We have performed in a variety of venues from hotels and marquees, to pubs, coffee shops and even in private homes. 

We are available for daytime or evening functions and can provide references relating to past performances if required.

Please check back in 7 –14 days when the link to our website will be available. You should then be able to listen to some example recordings.
