Reviews

We had the pleasure of having the them play for my parent’s 40th wedding anniversary.
Both my parents are avid Jazz enthusiasts and there are numerous musicians (including professionals) in our family, so it was important to us to have a band of quality, and they delivered!
They were also very easy to deal with. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for high quality, unobtrusive live music to create an atmosphere and bring a touch of class to their party.

Heard about this lot at the the Regatta last year.
Gave them a shot recently at a work do.
They didn’t disappoint. Bravo. Wish them all the best.
