"A distinctive jazz artist will reflect the ingenuity of the tradition while presenting a fresh voice that is current, relevant and exhilarating. Michael Hudson-Casanova succeeds in every respect"

"Please accept our thanks for such a wonderful performance at the Battle of Britain Ball on the 19th September. The band were wonderful and fitted our evening to perfection. The feedback we have received has been nothing but complimentary, and we would definitely call on your service should we ever be brave enough to do something on this scale again."

"We had The Graduates jazz quartet at our wedding and they were PHENOMENAL! I cannot imagine the night without them, they added such great ambience and our guests really enjoyed them with several asking specifically where we had found the band! They were an absolute pleasure to deal with, we would highly recommend for any event!!"

"I hosted a Saga jazz holiday at the Merton Hotel, Jersey, at which The Brian White Quartet was engaged to play. This was a unique experience, being Saga's first jazz holiday on the island and also that we had not heard the band play before. What a wonderful evening we had, with the band playing a superb programme of smooth, sophisticated jazz to the audience's delight. The band was very professional in every way - with good time-keeping and performing to our specified requirements. I have no hesitation in recommending this band if you are looking for something special, modern, up to date and very entertaining. "

"Kevin and his incredible team took care of all the music for our wedding, and it was mind blowing! We met Kevin in Florence while he was playing the most beautiful music from Ludovico Einaudi, and I told my now husband before he had even proposed at the time “if we ever get married, he will play the violin while I walk down the aisle”. And so I did! Thank you Kevin for making our wedding one of the most memorable ever ❤️"

"Hitchen Jazz Group travelled all the way to Holland to play for my family at a party. There were going to be many jazz lovers in attendance, so I checked out the Hitchen Jazz Website, and loved what I viewed. Hitchen Jazz Trio played an excellent selection of Jazz Standards, and we all loved it. The guys in the group were super friendly, and David even gave an impromptu trumpet lesson to one of the guests. Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou! "

"Thank you Trip for Biscuits, you were amazing! From the after dinner duo, to the evening 5 piece band, it was perfect. With your unique style, your music added such great flare to our wedding. From randomly seeing you perform for the first time in the Bootlegger in Exeter, we absolutely loved your music & you certainly didn't disappoint for our big day!!"

"Nice to meet you at The Milton Rooms on Saturday night. Everyone enjoyed the evening. I loved all your sets. Love that Swing era music and the songs. You can dance ballroom and latin to almost all of them. So, thanks to everyone in the band and I hope to see/hear you again sometime. Good luck and take care! All the Best."
