Testamonials

"Idle Words have a natural chemistry, with Jenifer's charming and melodious voice accompanied by Tom's rhythmic guitar chords.The duo has a calm performing manner which connects well with their audience." - Grant Barnes (Swindon 105.5)

"Idle Words (Tom and Jenifer) have become an accomplished and stylish jazz-influenced duo in a very short space of time. Their music ranges through the American songbook with other delightful forays into more esoteric areas. The combination of Tom's creative, subtle guitar playing and Jenifer's soulful, evocative vocals is a very attractive one, pleasing audiences wherever they play."- Adam Kotz (Newbury Unplugged)

"Thank you both so much for Saturday evening. It was such a treat to have live music in our own garden and all our guests loved it. Every party should start this way." - Keith Cahoon

"Idle words played at our wedding in September this year. Without doubt Idle words made our day that much more memorable! Every guest to a person commented on how fantastic the music was and we were so lucky to have them play for us.
You bring style and quality which is rare to find with live music, your range of songs impressed us both.
Myself and my husband cannot thank you both enough for playing at our wedding and we are so pleased that you are both able to play at our next family wedding where we know you will make it it just as memorable for them as it was for us." - Rebecca & Andrew Bayliss

"The sound of sunshine - Tom and Jenifer (a voice comparable to Lisa Ekdahl) brighten any event with their upbeat melodies, sense of fun and great style." - Caroline Paus, Newbury Events
