5 stars - Nathan James are Highly Recommended
booked Nathan James for their Wedding August 2024

“Nathan played at our wedding in August. He played the piano as guests arrived providing a warm and relaxing vibe. His ability to play from memory always amazes us, he is such a natural. He then played again at our evening reception, joined by band members carefully selected to compliment our favourite music. They put on a fantastic show! Nathan clearly took note of all the music we had suggested and put together an excellent set list. Our wedding guests were full of compliments for their performance and were asking when and where they could see Nathan again. We couldn't have wished for better!”


The guests were charmed by his performance.

5 stars - Nathan James are Highly Recommended
booked Nathan James for their Wedding July 2024

“Nathan performed a solo session at my daughter's wedding held at our home on 19th July 2024. His involvement and professionalism contributed to making the event a complete success, and the guests were charmed by his performance. He was most accommodating, set up well in advance, and entertained us all throughout his session. I have no hesitation in recommending Nathan as a high-quality musician/entertainer.”
