Entertainment Cordination

We help guide you through everything you should consider when booking a jazz musician or band. We make useful suggestions during the planning process so you get the best out of your entertainment and are happy to liaise with your venue, and suppliers to help make sure your event runs perfectly, without a hitch.

Make Song Requests

When planning entertainment for an event we understand how important it is to hear the music you love. That's why we offer all our clients their say for the song list. That means you are guaranteed personalised music to suit you and your guest’s preferences.

Hand picked Performers 

We are professional Jazz session musicians who have worked with the best in business. We know the best jazz musicians and bands  becuase we perform with them and  unlike agencies, we work exclusively with our own acts in the south west. That means that unlike the national agencies we can offer you the best hand picked jazz acts in the area your event is taking place.

Entertainment Packages

We know how expensive entertainment can be and also know lots of people prefer to only work with one supplier for their event.  That's why we offer our clients a range of bespoke entertainment package options. We can provide everything from background music before a jazz quartet to incredible wedding packages that will dazzle and wow your guests.

How we work.

1 We believe the perfect event and entertainment requires a personal service. The first step is making an enquiry by emailing us at enquiries@westendduo.com or  phoning on 01872 672870. After receiving an enquiry we always recommend a phone call or face to face meeting to discuss. we have found this is quicker, less stressful and allows us tofind out all the detials of your event so we are able to recommend the best entertainment options for your event. 


2 After talking through your event we will send you an accurate quote with no hidden fees including several act options for your event. Our quotes clearly outline the details of your entertainment and the booking process and of course if you want to talk things through further we can spend as much time as you like making sure everyhting is perfect for your event. Once you are happy with all the details and wish to book the act you just need to email us stating you would like to confirm the booking. 


3 Once you have booked the entertainment we will send you a booking confirmation email and invoice oultlining the payment shedule for your event. Typically we take a 30 percent booking fee at the time of securing your entertainment and the remaining balance up to 28 days before your event. Once the booking is in place we will either meet again fae to face or have further phone meetings to ensure the entertainment is perfectly tailored to your event. 

The style and sophistication we were looking for…

West End Duo did it all: they learnt special pop songs for our ceremony, performed elegant jazz at our drinks reception and wedding breakfast. They also played our first dance and at our reception were joined by the spectacular band Licence To Swing. They were organised, efficient and certainly provided the style and sophistication we were looking for. Highly recommended.

A touch of class…

West End Duo performed at our wedding recently and they were absolutely fantastic. They provided  background music for our drinks reception & also learnt a song for our ceremony. Total professionals from start to finish and they really added a touch of class to our wedding in Cornwall. Many guests commented on how great they were and one even asked for their contact details to book them for an event. What a wonderful act to find, they made our day extra special.

a slick operation from start to finish….

We booked ‘License to swing’ for a friend’s birthday celebration and it completely blew everyone away by their professionalism and talent. It was a slick operation from start to finish and we would not hesitate to recommend for any event. Top notch!!!!

I wanted a band that could really get my guests dancing in true 1920’s style and Licence to Swing did not disappoint…

We have just had the absolute pleasure of having Licence to Swing play at our 10th wedding anniversary party. Our theme was Great Gatsby and I wanted a band that could really get my guests dancing in true 1920’s style and Licence to Swing did not disappoint. Not only were the band amazing but the DJ played the best songs before, during and after the band to keep the party going.

And I can’t thank Tim enough for not only making the booking and organising the process so simple but for happily offering his advice, expertise and understanding meaning me, my family and all my guests really did have the most wonderful evening.
