"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Scott on multiple occasions, most recently for two student voice recitals featuring singers of various ages and skill levels. His sensitivity to phrasing, breath marks, and fermatas demonstrates a deep understanding of vocal nuance, and he consistently supports singers with both musicality and grace. Scott arrives prepared, presents himself with professionalism, and adapts seamlessly to the needs of each performer. Whether accompanying classical repertoire or lighter selections, he elevates every performance with refined technique and collaborative instinct. I would hire Scott again and again—he is a consummate artist and a trusted musical partner."

"Hype Magazine USA Cure For Jealousy A perfectly polished storyteller in the literal sense, Dar.Ra goes for this wild swing of ‘80s dance-rock infused with edge on the stomping sweetness of “Cure For Jealousy.” The track combines a range of periods and influences, ensuring the sound works seamlessly as a cohesive, concise whole. Volume is a given; he brings it, and it is a physical sound, like the way blood rushes through the ears with the first few traces of jealousy. Looking through his track record, he’s managed to touch upon every iteration of dance and rock within the last forty years, and has done it well. Outside of the music, he’s the author of two books, which also inform the character studies that he graces with his sound. It is catchy, addictive, and liberating stuff, the sort of thing that the music world needs now – something unique, experimental yet accessible, and overflowing with ideas. Sonically, Dar.Ra’s sound draws on the revivalist traditions of DFA Records, specifically on LCD Sound-System’s earnest pleas and search for meaning. Like James Murphy, Dar.Ra does have a love for the aesthetics of just a gigantic canvas, letting the whole arrangement feel enormous. On the classic side, the insistent bass has an ESG quality, with the groove absolutely dominating. It is easy to get intoxicated by the atmosphere, and the vocals further sell this idea of breaking free from this impairment. The tautness of the groove even delves into Parliament’s most unhinged experiments, as the track sparkles with endless creativity. For all these reference points, Dar.Ra continues his fine tradition of marching to the beat of a different drummer, going for this life-affirming, soulful stance. The stormy mix of keyboards and the tight rhythm section work their magic. Before his voice enters the equation, the mood is already set. When he takes center stage, the song transforms into an inner turmoil. He’s conflicted, and the verses cascade downwards reflecting exactly that. It stuns, and the track’s length makes the atmosphere almost psychedelic. Of course, this is what good dance music is meant to embody – endless expanses, endless possibilities. There is a reason so many dance-floors adhere to that sixto-seven-minute mark, even exceeding it when necessary. The band's interplay feels spirited, as if possessed, and this is what carries it all the way to the finale: a contemplative commotion. “Cure For Jealousy” shows that Dar.Ra is what music needs right now – a sound that draws and builds on the past while pointing a way forward, in a purely hedonistic, funk/dance/punk flavour."

"Für unsere Hochzeit in Luzern suchten wir einen Pianisten, der Eleganz und emotionale Tiefe vereint – und wir haben ihn gefunden. Vom ersten Moment an überzeugte er durch Seriosität, Engagement und große Aufmerksamkeit für unsere Wünsche. Er half uns bei der Auswahl der passenden Stücke und beriet uns mit viel Erfahrung und Stilgefühl. Die musikalische Begleitung während der Zeremonie war schlichtweg perfekt. Jeder Moment wurde einfühlsam unterstützt, wodurch eine feierliche und berührende Atmosphäre entstand. Auch während der Feier und beim Dinner beeindruckte er durch seine Vielseitigkeit und sein harmonisches Spiel. Sein Repertoire reichte von klassischer Musik über Jazz bis hin zu modernen Stücken, alles mit höchster Präzision und Eleganz. Unsere Gäste waren sehr beeindruckt und lobten die Qualität der Musik mehrfach. Wir sind dankbar für seine Professionalität und sein Talent und empfehlen ihn allen, die einen herausragenden Pianisten in der Schweiz suchen."

"Bruddah Vince is a talented musician that brought the Hawaiian islands to our event with his delightful presentation. His punctuality and friendliness brought a sense of ease to our event that meshed well with our relaxed ALOHA atmosphere. Our guests (many of them from Hawai’i) throughly enjoyed his sounds, his voice and his music selections. It was a truly a memorable and entertaining experience."

"Vince is the best! I can't recommend Vince enough. I hired Vince to celebrate my 13 year old daughters life. Everybody was highly impressed by Vince. If you are looking for a traditional Hawaiian ukulele or guitar player for your next event, don't hesitate in booking Vince. A1 *****"

"Tuvimos el inmenso placer de contar con Mónica, una saxofonista excepcional en nuestra boda, y no podríamos estar más felices con su actuación. Desde el primer momento, su profesionalismo y calidez marcaron la diferencia. La música en vivo con el saxofón le dio un toque mágico y elegante a cada momento del evento, desde la ceremonia hasta el cóctel. Su interpretación fue impecable, con un repertorio muy bien seleccionado que conectó con todos los invitados. Supo leer el ambiente perfectamente y adaptó cada nota al ritmo del evento. Varias personas nos comentaron lo especial que fue escucharla, y sin duda fue uno de los grandes aciertos del día. Recomendaríamos su trabajo con los ojos cerrados. Si estás buscando a alguien que aporte emoción, estilo y calidad musical a tu evento, ella es la indicada. ¡Gracias por hacer nuestra boda aún más inolvidable!"

"I would 100% recommend Kev! He performed at our wedding this weekend and he was excellent! From learning our favourite song for the ceremony to putting together a perfect choice of songs for the cocktail reception, he really made our wedding so special! He was so lovely and had great communication in the lead up. Our guests loved it and we had many compliments. Would happily book him again :) "

From our first meeting to the day itself she was professional, organised and helpful. A pleasure to deal with. We would highly reommend."

"Mr. Hoffmann Farré opened our event with a fabulous solo performance and played during the champagne reception and dinner. He accompanied the speeches with wonderful interludes. Our guests were thrilled—it couldn't have been better!"
