A very personable performance -- intimate, and genuine. Loved it.

They were absolutely superb! Loved the show, as did my friend who accompanied me.

This is easy......a 5+. We absolutely LOVED them both. Nicky is so spontaneously comfortable and confident on stage and super talented. She performs with such a passion and makes it look soo easy!! A true priviledge to see James Scholfield live - he is such an amazing musician. Would love to see both of them back again. Venue too was great and perfect for this act. Many thanks

Brilliant!
