Thanks once again for a wonderful time, the relaxed, informal and friendly environment made for an extremely enjoyable evening. Emily’s songs and poems were hauntingly beautiful. We are looking forward to the next one already! LISA

Thankyou for inviting me and for such a lovely evening - The music and company was lovely CAROLE

Thanks so much again for having us last night - we both had a wonderful time. Your house concert was perfect in every way... the staging, the lighting, the audience numbers, the accommodation and the catering. Thank you so much. EMILY MAGUIRE Mar 2026 (The artist who performed for us)

Just wanted to say thank you to you both for putting on these concerts. I thoroughly enjoyed the concert on Thursday evening and have since enjoyed listening to them on the cd.  Your next musician sounds fantastic too and I really hope to come. MARGARET

We had such a lovely time playing in your home - you took really great care of us and we loved the whole evening. Very glad you had good feedback, hope it helps for many more years of house concerts to come! Thank you so much for having us. ROSWELL ROAD Nov 2025 (The artists who performed for us)

Just wanted to say a big thank you for organising tonight’s concert, we really enjoyed it!  We thought Roswell Road were great, their voices were amazing.  It was lovely to meet up with friends as well as chat to new people all while enjoying delicious nibbles. Looking forward to the next one! MIKE

Yes, please book me in, again.  They look and sound great.  You do choose great artists.  Very well done. MARCUS

Just to say that we really enjoyed the concert with Anouska on Saturday.  It was great to be in your lovely new space, and she was such an accomplished singer and musician.  We loved her vibe, her easy way with the audience, and her music, and have been enjoying her CD in the car too!  We hope she gets more venues and other people get to enjoy her talents! CAROLINE AND MARTIN

I had a great evening and I am so pleased for you both that it went very successfully. What a wonderful addition to your home is now the new Home Concert room.  You must be delighted with the final result despite its the rather late finish. I really enjoyed the quite intimate atmosphere which really suited Anouska's set and her amusing chats.  MARCUS

We thoroughly enjoyed the evening and can’t fault it. Anouska was so endearing and I particularly liked the way she explained what she was doing and how she created her music. She was extremely talented and I felt she engaged us so well - great fun was had by all.  KAREN

Richard and Karen made everyone feel welcome. The atmosphere was friendly and cosy. It was hard to believe this was the first time they had hosted a house concert! Anouska was a delightful entertainer. She came across as an honest and appreciative performer. She is a fine songwriter and performed with heart and energy, getting her audience to join in on a few numbers. She took the time to explain how she used her tech to build up the backing tracks to her songs with musical loops. The time flew by and I enjoyed every minute. I would strongly recommend anyone who loves music to go and see Anouska perform. I would also recommend anyone who gets the opportunity, to attend Richard and Karen's next house concert BRIAN

Thanks so much for inviting me to share such a special evening in your home. I thoroughly enjoyed it. There was a very special, friendly vibe too.  I thought that Anouska’s performance was wonderful. She held the audience throughout with her amazing guitar playing and captivating voice. So talented. I also liked the way she interacted with us all by sharing snippets of her life and experiences with us.  I would love to join you again for another of your house concerts.  PAMELA

I thought that the music evening you both arranged was a huge success.  It far exceeded my expectations and I thought that Anouska was outstanding in every respect. I'm afraid that I can't offer any suggestions for improvement as I thought it was just right as it was. Please pass on my thanks to Anouska for her performance, I'm sure she has a bright future ahead of her. DAVID

‘Richard and Karen were such fantastic hosts. They made me feel very welcome and comfortable in their home. It was clear to see they were well-versed in how a good house concert should be run and what a musician might need in order to give their best performance. The audience was so attentive and appreciative — they were an absolute pleasure to perform for. Sharing your music with people who listen and engage is all that a songwriter and artist can hope for, and that was the experience Richard and Karen facilitated for me. I am extremely grateful for these opportunities. I hope you perform again sometime soon’ ANOUSKA ASSISI Sep 2025 (The artist who performed for us)
