Simon Atkinson & The Ben Marcato Trio Testimonials

Simon Atkinson was delightful - friendly, warm, considerate and thoughtful.  He made the run up to the party stress-free with regard to the entertainment.  He and the band are also excellent musicians and the choice of music was just what I wanted.  Catriona Ross, Blairdrummond Community Hall, March 2008.

The band were excellent and 'made' our wedding reception!  Especially our first dance - adapted beautifully for us.  Thank you so much!  We would recommend Simon Atkinson & The Ben Mercato Trio & Hireaband to anyone!  Wedding, October 2006, Cringletie House

The band were superb throughout.  I cannot recommend them highly enough.  All of our guests enjoyed every second of their performance.  Wedding, Dundas Castle, February 2006.

I'm just writing to say thank you for kick starting my 21st fantastically.  In the run up to my party, Simon made regular contact with me, which was great and very respectful. The were brilliant - a lovely group of guys and talented too!  The asked me before and during their performance about volume levels as they were willing to make changes if required.  Their repertoire was lively and varied - perfect for the party!  All, or a vast majority of my guests were from the RSAMD in Glasgow and were equally impressed, a number of them asked for details. Thank you so so much to Simon and The Ben Marcato Trio!  The whole night was amazing - see you at my wedding!  Nicola Turner, Elphinstone Tower, September 2005.

I would just like to convey my sincerest thanks to Simon and the band.  Many of our guests commented on their excellent performance.  They were fantastic from start to finish and really helped our wedding day to come to a memorable conclusion.  Alan and Lynn Morson, Montgreenan Mansion House Hotel, September 2005.

We'd just like to pass on our thanks to Simon Atkinson &  The Ben Marcato Trio for the incredible night they provided for our wedding.  The band was very professional and tailored everything they did for our needs.  Just three days before the wedding itself, I mentioned our first dance to Simon.   It was a complicated fast number which Simon hadn't heard before and I suggested we play it from CD.  However, on the night of the wedding, the band delivered a spot on live rendition of the number. Not only were they professional, but a very likeable bunch.  We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for any event.  Simon Atkinson & The Ben Marcato Trio were astounding.  They were friendly, approachable and incredibly flexible in providing us with a perfect evening.  Mr & Mrs Blandford, Monachyle Mhor June 2005.
