Brian and Maxine Warner’s incredible career journey in entertainment
For Brian and Maxine, performing isn’t just a career; it’s a calling. With over 40 years of experience in the industry, their passion for music and entertainment remains as strong as ever. Their journey began in the golden era of the Lemon Tree Band, where their incredible stage presence and musical expertise quickly gained them recognition. Now, as a duo, they bring their decades of experience to any event, large or small, anywhere in the world. Alongside their passion for performing, they run Warner Entertainments with an additional office in Spain, offering everything you need to make your event truly unforgettable. Whether you’re looking for a full swing band, a celebrity performance, a disco or any other type of entertainment, they have it all.
Their love for performing began at a very young age. Maxine shares, “As a child, I would sit and watch Sunday Night at the London Palladium, and one day I turned to my father and said, ‘I’m going to sing on that stage.’ He laughed, but unfortunately, he passed away at 53 and never saw the success The Lemon Tree Band achieved.”
Brian and Maxine’s career is packed with amazing moments that most performers can only dream of. They’ve had the chance to perform at some incredible events, like Royal Garden Parties at Buckingham Palace, Her Majesty The Queen’s Golden Jubilee Garden Party, and the legendary London Palladium. They’ve also taken the stage at The Royal Albert Hall and made appearances on BBC TV’s Children in Need, earning them recognition as household names in the entertainment industry.
“Being able to work together, sharing our love for music, and seeing how we can make a difference in people’s lives is incredibly fulfilling,” Maxine says. “We’re not just performers; we’re partners in everything we do, both on and off the stage.” While working with your partner comes with its challenges, Brian and Maxine also enjoy hobbies outside of their work. Brian supports Manchester United and watches matches when he can. Maxine created The Tidderly Pops, a children’s book and CD about twins Nippa & Pippa, Oya Clog & Little Joe. Having things separate from their work ensures they can come together to run their business to the best of their ability, and they pride themselves on always having a backup plan for rare problems such as illness or breakdowns.

Warner Entertainment has been collaborating with the cast of Coronation Street for many years, and over time, many of the stars have become close personal friends to Brian and Maxine. With Book A Celebrity, Brian personally escorts most stars to events, ensuring that everything runs smoothly for clients. The stars themselves make a significant impact at any promotion or event, taking great pleasure in posing for photos and signing autographs for attendees.
While they’ve had an impressive career, their drive for excellence continues to inspire and fuel their work. Whether it’s rehearsing new songs, refining their vocal techniques, or staying current with the latest trends in the entertainment world, they are constantly looking for ways to improve.
The couple believes that perfection is something you can always strive for, no matter how successful you are. “We are always rehearsing, practicing or pushing ourselves to be better” says Brian. “Every performance is an opportunity to give our best and create something special for our audience.”
As they continue their journey, Brian and Maxine remain excited about the future. Their love for music and each other keeps them motivated to explore new creative possibilities, entertain new audiences, and create even more unforgettable memories. For them, there is no limit to what they can achieve together, both as a couple and as performers.
