A gem of a human and an incredible musician, Robert is the absolute BEST!

5 stars - Robert W are Highly Recommended
booked Robert W for their wedding October 2025

“Where to begin! Robert is beyond talented and truly was the highlight and most memorable part of our wedding! He learned multiple songs for our day and mastered all of them (sang Justin Bieber better than Justin Bieber himself). We already knew how amazing he was but our friends and family were blown away. We will never be able to thank him enough and he is an absolute must if you want great music at your wedding or special event. A gem of a human and an incredible musician, Robert is the absolute BEST!”

If you want someone guaranteed to bring joy to your guests for any event, get in touch with Robert immediately! Thank you again my friend, we shall be sure to be in touch for anything in the future and have already been raving about you to others. Look forward to having some of your music on my playlist soon.

Trying to work out when we can hire him again!!

5 stars - Robert W are Highly Recommended
booked Robert W for their wedding October 2025

“Robert was absolutely fantastic from start to finish! We hired Robert to sing during our evening wedding reception and added on his virtual DJ package too. He was so easy to communicate with, super flexible, and even took the time to get to know our music taste to put together the most fantastic set list. He also prioritised our daughter’s favourite songs so she could have a dance before leaving half way through the evening which was such a special touch and so appreciated. All of our guests have been raving about Robert ever since and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him over and over. Trying to work out when we can hire him again!! Thank you a million times over for helping us have the BEST night.”


He made the day that wee bit extra special!

5 stars - Robert W are Highly Recommended
booked Robert W for their event September 2025

“We booked Robert to perform at a Celebration of Life service for my sister in law Olivia. We couldn’t have booked a better singer for the day. We spoke on the lead up to the event, and I sent over some requested songs which he performed no problem at all - and the additional songs he performed for us all went down so well! He made the day that wee bit extra special and really helped us with Olivia’s final send off and celebration. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for live music!”
