"Fabulously talented. Her brilliantly realized comedy shows maturity well beyond her years. Her psychotic yet sexy American singer is a thing of hysterical beauty."  
 
Time Out
 
"Like Dolly Parton seen through the lens of Mike Leigh; she performs brilliantly observed songs about love, loss and violent revenge."  
 
Guardian 

“Pippa Evans over-delivers big time as a presenter. She’s smart, funny, intuitive with an uplifting demeanor that means she can easily hold the attention of the audience.  But more than this, it was the way that she completely tailored her performance to the event that meant she was a fabulous success at our retailer awards event. The song she wrote specially about specialist retailing, even down to the timbre of tune (which fitted in with the Great Gatsby theme) was impressive and highly enjoyable. She is one talented lady and I would have no hesitation in recommending her.”

Jakki Brown, Joint Managing Director of Max Publishing

 

“Pippa went down absolutely brilliantly and I was very impressed with her professionalism and all the research and work she had done beforehand to prepare.  Lots of staff are saying how good she was, and everyone is talking about her song! A few of my directors have also passed on their praise about her hosting, which is high praise indeed!”
