Review Centre: Roaming Musicians

"We had the pleasure of having Yohan perform at our wedding, and he was absolutely fantastic. He played a beautiful mix of western pop songs, both old and new, which created the perfect atmosphere for our celebration. Many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the music, and it really added a special touch to the event. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a violinist for their special occasion."

"Nos recomendaron esto grupo una pareja amiga que se casó el año pasado y no podemos estar más contentos. Nos encantó el show, las voces, el batería un máquina, el cantante con su piano guitarra, espectacular todo. Teníamos pensado contratar un grupo de versiones, pero no encontrábamos nada novedoso, la gran mayoría eran o grupos de rumba o muchos integrantes y se nos iba de presupuesto. Ellos fueron perfectos, sonaron increíble y solo eran 3. Un lujo! Además se encargaron ellos de la parte técnica y del sonido que la verdad nosotros no entendíamos nada. Les deseamos lo mejor y gracias por formar parte de nuestra fecha tan especial "

"Hola! Per fi he trobat un moment per escriure-us. Hem tingut les nostres anades i tornades, però finalment va arribar el dia del concert. Heu estat genials: professionals, simpàtics, puntuals, tot. Els meus convidats s’ho van passar d’allò més bé i no paraven de repetir-m’ho durant tota la festa."

"12/10 For This Group!!! I was in charge of booking a 15 person marching band for a company trade show and WOW did The Sidewalk Crusaders impress!!! Not only was Peter incredibly professional and easy to work with, the music and band was exactly what we were hoping for. They were punctual, friendly and dedicated to making the best show possible for us. I can't recommend them enough if you are looking for an amazing band to liven up an event/show. Their music was on point and made for a very memorable event. Thank you Peter and team for doing such a great job!"

"Jools composed and remotely recorded violin sections for 3 of my tracks: Just For a Day; Roman 7; Boneyard. The tracks have an American influence but would fall under the indie genre. Essentially, the remit for Jools was to 'bulk them out' with strings. Although I had not actually met Jools in person (and still haven't), he was extremely responsive when communicating via email and therefore didn't need to meet. Before agreeing, he encouraged me to listen to his back catalogue - I was impressed with the breadth and depth of genres that Jools had worked with and I was pleased to learn he had worked with a couple of acquaintances of mine- namely The Birmingham Philharmonic Orchestra and Chris Tye. Listening to his work, I was impressed by his knack around texturising songs- in my experience, strings can sometimes feel isolated from the rest of the instrumentation and I am aware that some string players find this aspect of composition challenging. Throughout the process, Jools ensured he had a secure understanding around my expectations. This brought about discussion around dynamics, chord progression technique (tremolo, tied sections etc). Although he was happy to read from transcript, I felt that his take on composition would be much better than mine, so he kindly agreed to compose the parts himself. After recording the first version, he sent me recordings via YouTube- he even went to the trouble of including a running text commentary of his thoughts within the video itself. This meant that I could give better feedback and bounce off his ideas. I was especially amazed by the turnaround (3 days to complete the process) as I had not set any deadlines or ball-park timeframes. Jools' playing is technically perfect and he has an exceptional ear for harmony and dynamics. e.g. He knew not to play for the sake of playing, and when to build to crescendo. He was able to add a range of chords, hooks and new melodies to the song. In Boneyard, the melody in the instrumental chorus ended up becoming the dominant hook- this was totally unplanned. Much like his violin playing, the overall recording quality was very professional. If you are looking for an outstanding string player who is both technical and visionary, Jools would be my number one recommendation."
