Jayne entertained the ladies of Kimberley WI at their Christmas party. From my initial enquiry to leaving at the end of the night, everything went very smoothly. We were entertained with a good range of festive songs from the 1940s onwards plus a bit of humorous banter and were all up dancing. The show was just great and Jayne's outfits delightful. Thank you so much! Highly recommended!

Jayne , thank you so much for making our day so special 💖 you are amazing at what you do and just what we wanted. Great voice and nothing was to much trouble, mixing the 1920s with the new was great we had guests that could sing to the old songs then their kids singing to the new once the heard the lyrics in a 1920s tone. So many memories of the night. Loved the chalston teaching session too. All the guests on their feet thank you. X Your communication through out kept us both relaxed and ready for a good time. If you want a singer to remember then Jayne is the one xx

Jayne came out to our nursery in Hucknall completely free of charge and spent a morning with our staff and children. She took part in our Remembrance Day hand prints activity and sat and listened to stories about the war. We had a parade and Jayne sang war time songs and serenaded us all! It really was such a lovely occasion and Jaynes performance was amazing. We had so many local residents complimenting her as they had listened from their gardens! If you get the opportunity to go and see Jayne do it! If you are considering booking her you won’t be at all disappointed. Our children were mesmerised with her performance and she made it a day that we will never forget.

Jayne is absolutely incredible! Her voice has that beautiful, classic 1940s sound — smooth, soulful, and full of emotion. Listening to her feels like stepping into a vintage jazz club, with all the charm and elegance of a bygone era. She brings so much style and authenticity to every performance. Whether it’s a slow, romantic ballad or an upbeat swing tune, Jayne captures the heart of the music and keeps the audience completely captivated. I really look forward to the next performance.

We have booked Jayne Darling to sing for our late mums last four Birthdays at her Nursing Home.The memories we have of the joy she shared singing to our Mum and the residents are irreplaceable. She is an entertainer and walks round to include all the audience with her large and varied repetoire. Jayne is a true professional who dresses up to match the occasion. If I ever need a singer again Jayne would be the one.

Jayne performed at Carpenter Court, a 60+ development in Stapleford, on December 12th, 2023. It was our Christmas Party and it was a fabulous evening. Jayne is a fantastic performer and entertainer with a wonderful rapport with her audience. She looked fabulous as she performed her Vintage Christmas Show. She chose an excellent range of songs and my wife and I thought that she sang some of the songs better than the original artists. She was a class act, made our evening and put us all in the mood for Christmas. We will certainly ask her back again. Tom Dowers Stapleford
