"31.12.2023 This is to confirm that Chrissy and Ray (Obsession Duo) worked for me as musicians / entertainers onboard the TUl river ship TUI ISLA in 2023. I found them to be extremely professional, friendly, talented, punctual and hardworking, having a large repertoire suited to all genres. I would highly recommend them to any employer and would have no hesitation working with them again. Yours Sincerely Jean Williams Cruise Director TUI ISLA"

"Grupo Azucar performed at my daughter's wedding. They were fantastic, with a wide range of songs to suit the age range & musical preferences of the guests. I would highly recommend booking the group for any celebration, a classy, very well attired, fabulous musical addition to an event."

"Chris was fantastic! Chris was fantastic! We hired Chris just 24 hours before a wonderful large graduation party. He came all the way from Reseda to Newport Beach and played for over three hours straight. Everyone commented how great it was to have live music and his drums were beautiful sounding and his backing vocals made it much more fun and lively than just a steel drum presentation. We highly recommend Chris. He’s courteous, he showed up on time, he cheerful but most of all he’s a great entertainer for a classy party. Thank you Chris!"

"Maria Perdiki, known by her stage name Jammaroots, is a talented singer, songwriter and musician hailing from Athens, Greece. Growing up in a musical family, Maria’s passion for music runs deep in her veins. Throughout her career, she has explored various genres through collaborations, but she has found her true calling in reggae. Combining her diverse musical roots, Jammaroots has developed a unique sound that blends reggae with elements of soul, dub, and improvisation. In addition to performing with her band, Jammaroots, she also showcases her skills as an acoustic guitarist and as a reggae selector with live vocals. About a month and a half ago, Jammaroots released their self-titled EP, consisting of six tracks that were recorded live at Wannabizz Studios in Piraeus, Greece. The mixing and mastering of the tracks were done at Studio 10 in Thessaloniki, Greece, focusing on enhancing the heavy bass and delay effects to create a unique dub atmosphere while preserving the live band experience. The powerful sounding EP includes original compositions by Jammaroots, alongside a reggae rendition of Hooverphonic’s Mad About You. Doing a cover of this popular 2000 hit single in reggae style definitely requires a certain level of bravery. Although it may not be among the best tracks, it is still a commendable attempt overall. When it comes to standout songs, the enticing introductory track I Know A Place leaves a lasting impact. Similarly, the thought-provoking song Problems also grabs your attention with its meaningful message. Additionally, Wise Mind, a tune that will make you bob your head, is definitely worth multiple listens, especially due to its surprising twist in its final 3 minutes. This remarkable Jammaroots EP reaffirms that reggae music is a genre that transcends borders and can be created in a notable way by people all over the world."

"Legend were absolutely spectacular. They really brought the party and we felt as though they were genuinely enthusiastic. What's more, they were super flexible and accommodating with the usual delay in schedule that comes with weddings. Wish I could do it all over again!"

"We've booked Chronicles of Zee several times for our annual ball, and they never let us down, applying a funk, soul and ska twist to a range of classics to get the dancefloor rocking with something for everyone. Des and the band are great guys and we'd happily recommend them. "

"Le Mixx absolutely nailed the music to our wedding. Myke and his crew were on fire - they had everyone on their feet dancing the entire time they were playing. Communication was excellent with Myke, he took time to fully understand what we were looking for and then executed flawlessly. Guests were raving about the music and quality of the band - do yourself a favor and book Le Mixx, you will not regret it! (groom-Wedding: 06/07/2019 The Knot) "
