Just WOW!!

The (now) husband and I had the pleasure of first seeing Andrew perform at my sister’s wedding five years ago and we absolutely loved him, so we were delighted that we were able to book him to play at our own Wedding. He did not disappoint! He exceeded expectations (which were already pretty high having already seen him previously) and his musical talents speak for themselves. We received so many compliments about his performance that I'm sure we'll see him at friends' weddings in the future!

Andrew’s sunny disposition and quick humour made him an instant hit with guests before he had even started his set, and he blended in perfectly to the surroundings, with his music entertaining everyone there. Luckily we had a beautiful sunny day, so Andrew could set up outside and perform for everyone in the grounds of our venue, to the delight of passers-by who also sang nothing but his praises to us as well. We opted for the Full Day Package from 24 Live and the additional Cajon Drummer for the evening reception, and that was also a massive hit! What a party!

In the build up to the wedding, on the day and even after the wedding, Andrew has been incredibly thorough, accommodating and just an absolute dream to deal with. He is so, so friendly and personable, and he goes above and beyond to ensure that the experience he gives you is the perfect one. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he made us feel completely at ease, he is a true professional. He leaves no stone unturned and his attention to detail is flawless.

Andrew really is a class act and an absolute gentleman, not to mention all kinds of talented. He made our day really special and our Wedding wouldn’t have been the success it was without him there. We cannot recommend him highly enough. We can’t wait to see him perform again in the future! Thank you so much for everything Andrew. 😊

All the very best,

Chantal & Tom xxx

Absolutely incredible

We got married in August 2024 and it’s taken us until now to be able to find the words to review 24Live because nothing we could come up with was good enough. We found 24Live through our venue, Skipbridge Country Weddings, and from the outset Andrew was so friendly, organised and totally understood what we were aiming for. We had a festival-themed wedding but love our 80s music so Andrew (and later Chris) brought the perfect mix of acoustic/disco which kept us and our guests dancing all day and night. The personal service we received was above anything we could have hoped for - from walking down the aisle, getting involved in speeches, our first dance outside under the sunset, to playing a rogue request of Tenacious D, they really can do it all. If you are considering live music at your wedding, these guys are far and away the best out there. Cannot recommend enough!

World Class!

We booked Andrew for the whole day and it was simply perfect! From first contact to saying Goodbye on the day. He was easy to talk to and just a joy to have there on our speacial day. Everyone complimented on the music and he did an excellent job in choosing songs for us. If you are on the hunt for music... stop right there and get him booked in! We hope to cross paths with him again soon somewhere so we can have a catch up and listen to his lovely voice once again! Mo & Ste

Outstanding Duo for a Wedding/Event!

Andrew was phenomenal from start to finish. Highly professional and so approachable. He gave us a call to talk through our needs, and as we were not sure he gave us lots of ideas. He reads the room with ease. We just gave him a sample of bands/Artists we like and he took it from there, playing music that suited what was going on throughout the day. He’s an amazing musician that can play and sing at length, bringing great energy to the room with everyone up on the dancefloor in the evening. I couldn’t recommend him enough, get him booked for your wedding!

Absolutely smashed it!


Andrew was just fantastic from start to finish! Straight from booking Andrew kept in regular contact and was so helpful - even recommending other suppliers for us.
On the day he was amazing. He learnt and performed the song for when I walked down the aisle and it was just perfection. My two other favourite moments were our wedding breakfast entrance and first dance both with Andrew performing. I lost count of the number of guests who came up to me and said how great he was and he has the best song list ever such a wide variety of music suitable for all tastes. Would absolutely recommend Andrew to anyone for their wedding absolutely incredible! Thank you so much Andrew for making our day so special and keeping our guests entertained 10/10 chefs kiss!

What a party!

I'm lucky to have known Andrew and Chris for many years, so there was no doubt in my mind when it came to choosing our wedding performers, who we would go for! We are so lucky and grateful to have had them perform on the most special day of our lives - they were incredible!!
Not only was Andrew attentive and professional during the event but in the lead up he kept in touch, which was really helpful and appreciated. We chose to have them play intermittently during the DJ set on the evening do, which worked really well as it added a bit of energy and fun in between the DJ's music. Andrew kindly learnt a few songs especially for us which we really appreciated! Guests absolutely loved their style and vibe - we've had so many positive comments about them and others wanting to book them! Even my Niece got onto the dance floor inside a cardboard Igloo which I think has to be a first as far as dance floor outfits go HA!
Thank you so much guys, for adding that special touch to our wedding day - you are part of memories that will last us a lifetime. There's a reason why these guys are award winners - if you are wondering whether to book 24 Live - JUST DO IT!
Thank you so much guys!!!

Out of this world!

I could not recommend Andrew more highly, his communication throughout the whole process was exceptional, professional and personal, nothing was ever too much trouble and we felt totally at ease. On the day, well wow, what can I say, the atmosphere Andrew was able to create was out of this world. When he started to play my song to walk down the aisle it brought a tear to my eye. Our guests absolutely loved him, the grooms mum thought we were playing from a playlist until she saw it was Andrew, he was that perfect! He was able to match the tone of our day amazingly, moving from ceremony and lounge style in to something more up beat after the speeches to get the party started, truly exceeding expectations, what a talent! Thank you so much Andrew from both of us, The Colleys x

Perfect from start to finish

When I first reached out to Andrew he was unavailable for our date but he was super lovely and sent us a list of other musicians. Luckily for us we never even got round to looking at that list before he emailed us again saying that the original couple had postponed thier due so he was now free! We were absolutely thrilled!

Andrews Communication throughout the process was amazing, always there to answer any questions, even took wedding jobs off me and contacted our venue himself directly to make sure they had everything they needed from him. He made the process so easy!

We booked Andrew for the full day with Chris joining him in the evening and we are so glad that we did. We are big music fans and one of the things we found so hard was narrowing down Andrews song list! Even with all of.the songs he already offers, Andrew was kind enough to learn our walking down the aisle song and our first dance song. Two songs that mean the world to us and we.are so glad that we got to experience his versions. The icing on the cake was when Andrew then played these songs again at the end of the night, when most had gone to bed, we will treasure that final moment of our magical day forever.

Every single person at the wedding has said just how amazing Andrew and Chris both were and we couldn't agree more. Thank you for everything.

Absolute top class! ✨️👌🏼

These boys were an absolute dream to work with! Upon hearing countless reviews and reccomendations, we booked 24Live for our Wedding reception. True to form, they did not disappoint. Beyond their talents and amazing artistry, these two are also genuinely two of the nicest people you'll ever meet. Andrew was with us every step of the way through the planning process and was so friendly, approachable and responsive throughout, ensuring that every little detail was accounted for and always reassuring us. They even arranged for me as the Bride to get up on stage to sing a couple of songs as a surprise for my now husband and they could not have been more accommodating of this. Our guests absolutely loved the music and were so complimentary all night! We would have absolutely no hesitation recommending these two and we are so happy we put our trust in them - they absolutely delivered and 100% brought the party! We will be forever grateful to 24Live, thank you from the bottom of our now, very full hearts. The Royles x

Excellent!

From the minute I saw a clip of Andrew singing on Instagram, I knew we needed him for our wedding. He was so kind and responded to emails really quickly, and sent us the different package options he had available along with his prices which we thought were extremely reasonable considering how talented he is! Once we had booked him for the Ceremony, Drinks Reception and Wedding Breakfast, Andrew kept in regular contact with us, always checking in and seeing if we had any questions, and he responded to emails quickly. Our phone call a month before the wedding really put us at ease and we are so pleased with the music we chose. The music choices on offer are varied and there is really something for everyone.
The wedding day itself was everything we could have dreamed of. Andrew was polite and friendly to everyone and even played one last song once he had finished when all our guests demanded it after the wedding breakfast! We got so many comments from our guests on how brilliant he was and we have to agree! I would recommend to anyone and everyone. Truly one of our favourite parts of our day, thank you Andrew!

Leah & Jamie- 9.8.24

We were absolutely blown away by Andrew & Chris' incredible performance for our wedding. We booked Andrew to perform for our wedding breakfast and Chris joined for our evening reception. The duo kept all of our wedding party entertained from start to finish. So many of our guests commented on how amazing the duo were!

Not only is Andrew a talented vocalist, but he was also incredibly professional and easy to work with. He was attentive to our requests, accommodating our musical preferences, and ensuring that everything ran smoothly on the day.
We would highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking for an exceptional acoustic singer for their wedding. His talent, professionalism, and dedication to creating a memorable experience made our special day even more magical.

We cannot thank you enough!

Amazing, talented & friendly people!

Andrew played throughout our wedding ceremony and drinks reception and was joined by Chris for a duo performance in the evening and all I can say is WOW!! Both boys were absolutely incredible! Andrew was amazing throughout our ceremony and also sent me a recording of my walking down the aisle song so I could rehearse this with my bridesmaids beforehand. I can’t even explain how many guests came up to us and told us how amazing Andrew was throughout the drinks reception too! Chris was a great finishing touch for our evening do and both boys kept ourselves and our guests up dancing and singing the night away. Andrew was very responsive and helpful via email from the point of booking over 2 years ago to even after our wedding, and also kept in touch with us often throughout the years. We cannot thank Andrew and Chris enough for making our day so perfect. What an incredible, friendly and talented pair of lads these two really are! 100% recommend to anyone looking for great entertainment throughout your special day!

Love these guys

From the off Andrew was so easy to talk to, his communication was great. I wish I got to see/hear more of them during my day but I was too busy floating around everywhere. All my guests have commented on how great they were.
Can the next person to book them invite me to their wedding so I can hear them again?! Haha!
I had Andrew sing from the start of my guests being seated all the way into the evening. I would 100% recommend them to anyone who is looking for someone to entertain their guests with some great singing
