    Simon, Yes Management

  • Hugh Price played at our wedding and he was great. He has a wide repertoire of songs, including jazz, soul and Latin music, both ballads and more uptempo numbers. He was highly professional and there was fantastic feedback from the guests. He is also very easy to deal with, which made our wedding preparations that bit easier. We'd definitely book Hugh again!

    C Tennant, Wedding

  • We are delighted at the response we have received since adding Hugh to our database and website. Hugh is a popular choice, we often receive enquiries regarding his availability, unfortunately due to demand Hugh is not always available. Hugh is a personal favourite of mine and have no hesitation in recommending him to any of my clients.

    T Penn, Entertainment Agency

  • The music was excellent, and really made the occasion - it contributed amazingly to the ambience of the dinner (in a large hall). From discussing our requirements, through to setting up and the performance itself, he and his band displayed a very high level of professionalism and I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again or recommend him to others.

    M Dixon, Wedding

  • Hugh has played a residency at our Battersea Park gigs to crowds of up to 1000 at a time and over the four hours of the gig to listeners in the thousands. His repertoire is wide-ranging and I would gladly recommended him to anyone looking at using his services. If you would like to discuss this further please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
