"songsNews “10 Bourbon Street”: an album that transports us to New Orleans, under the command of Catfish-Howl “10 Bourbon Street” springs from the blues fountain in New Orleans. We have ten songs that are a delight. Here the instrumental presentation is a lesson in dynamics and rhythm, which Catfish-Howl delivers, for our enjoyment. The New Hampshire band rocks the percussion and upbeat, colorful vocals to win our hearts. “My Baby Has Me”, “Cajun Girl” are songs that already give us an idea of ​​what we will see in this collection: they exalt love and, of course, women. A perfect sound to dance and enjoy that atmosphere of undeniable romance, which they pour into the air. The accordion is a star: it's in every melody, every beat, and there's no lack of commitment to participate with excitement, even when the guitar presents its fingerings. For those who love this mix of brass, strings, percussion and vocals that drink from the blues waters, this work is perfect. There is a reinterpretation of “Tupelo Honey”, by Van Morrison, which we need to highlight, for the proposed emotion, and the vocal delicacy involved, which is surprising. “My Maryann” takes us to New Orleans, without having to go there! You may be in Australia, where music transports your energy as if by magic. Catfish-Howl puts us in a wonderful ball to wear out our feet and exhaust our strength, as it's impossible to sit still listening to "10 Bourbon Street." The blues magic really is irresistible. Listen and enjoy."

"The Cheers played at our party on Saturday evening with a set between 8.30-9.30 and 10.00-11.00. They were FAB, with many of our guests asking how we had found such a great band. There pre-party arrangements were very easy with us being able to select a play list of our own choosing. We had the 5-piece band which was terrific. I cannot recommend them highly enough."

"Have known members of the Free Radicals for decades, and decided to hire them to perform at my wedding in 2014. We had some unusual requests (i.e., to perform as a marching band for a second line) and also to play some quieter "mood" music for our reception, and they were 100% game and did a wonderful job--professional musicians who know how to work a crowd with minimal handholding from event organizers! Guests really enjoyed and would recommend!"

"Hi Abbie and Gavie, I want to thank you both so much for being absolutely amazing at Ellie and Charlie’s wedding on Sunday. You played so beautifully and created such a wonderful atmosphere. It could not have been more perfect. When I heard you on Radio London, all that time ago, I knew that I wanted you to play at Ellie’s wedding. Well, how right I was. I can’t imagine anything better. I’m only sorry that I didn’t get a chance to have a chat with you on the day. It’s remarkably hectic being mother-of-the-bride! I hope that you were well looked after and managed to get something to eat. The rest of the wedding was equally wonderful and we are all still floating on air. Many thanks again for making the wedding so special. "

"I arrived the reception hall late with 100 little worries on my mind, but as I walked up with to the melodious sounds of horn & bass playing "Take 5," I knew then that everything was going to be more than fine. These musicians are talented, flexible, professional with a good dose of personality. It was the easiest and best decision I made to hire a live band instead of a DJ for my wedding. I am holding onto their card for our next soiree. I would highly recommend these guys for any occasion."

"Tuve la oportunidad de escuchar a este grupo en una fiesta de mi trabajo y me encantó!! Tienen un repertorio muy variado, para todos los públicos, de temas en general bastante conocidos tanto en inglés como en español. Punto a favor también las armonías vocales de las cantantes; me sorprendieron mucho."

"Simon and Aden were fantastic, they flawlessly performed a wide range of songs that appealed to all ages. They even quickly personalised a version of Mustang Sally for the Birthday Boy based on what they heard minutes before in the speeches, very clever !! Simon and Aden were very friendly and fitted in so well that they appeared to be good friends or family. We highly recommend them and look forward to an opportunity to have them perform again for us in the future. Nice work guys !!!"
