"One of the best singer/performer in La Costa del Sol. Every time she takes the stage, it’s pure magic. Her voice is so powerful with such emotion and authenticity. She knows how to animate the crowd and keep them dancing and singing all night long. I’ve had the pleasure to work with her and it’s such a joy for me to say so! Highly recommend catching one of her shows if you ever get the chance!"

"Absolutely Fantastic David and I thoroughly enjoyed your performance at our 25th Wedding Anniversary. We saw the guys perform at the County Show and have been waiting to find something to celebrate and have them perform. I have lost count of how many of our guest have congratulated us the choice of Band and Entertainment. "

"Vi hadde gleden av å ha Pedro som underholdningsinnslag til ansattjulefesten vår på jussfakultetet ved UiB. Vi kunne ikke vært mer fornøyde med trylleshowet han leverte. Han imponerte oss med fantastiske kortriks og en karismatisk opptreden, som satte standarden for en kjempefin kveld! Pedro er svært dedikert til det han driver med og viste stort engasjement i planleggingsarbeidet for å skreddersy et underholdningskonsept som passet ønskene våre. Gjennom kommunikasjonen vår i forkant var han imøtekommende og ryddig, og han viste stor fleksibilitet når vi måtte gjøre justeringer i våre opprinnelige planer. Pedro tilbyr et bredt spekter av ulike konsepter, som fint kan tilpasses det meste av forsamlinger og arrangementstyper. Vi anbefaler Pedro på det varmeste til alle som ønsker å tilføre litt ekstra magi til sine arrangementer!"

"The performance added tremendous value to our event. Despite the large number of guests, the live jazz created the perfect atmosphere. We especially appreciated how quickly everything could be arranged."

"Serendipity is what you’re aiming for in Edinburgh: a happy discovery out of the blue. Yes, it sounds like a paradox, like “expect the unexpected”. But up here, you must not just expect it, but welcome it. So if you hear, for instance (in a genu-ine example from a few years ago), of a 15-minute musical about a stewardess called The Jolly Folly Of Polly The Scottish Trolley Dolly playing in a minor venue towards the bottom of the Royal Mile, well, it’s not much time or money, so you’ve nothing to lose by taking a punt on it. And if you’re staggering across the Royal Mile in the small hours and meet a crowd of drunken loud¬mouths, wait for a couple of minutes before writing them off: it could be comedian Arthur Smith’s legendary Alternative Walking Tour. This event, though, is now in semi-retirement following an incident in 2000 when the reeling mob was mistaken for a bunch of nocturnal anti-Ann Widdecombe protesters (no, honestly), which led to the arrest of comic Simon Munnery for assaulting a police offi¬cer . . . “assaulting” in the sense of getting in the way of the cop’s body- charge. (Munnery’s tried and acquittal were amusing, too, but took place outside Festival season.) The true Edinburgh expe-rience is being knocked side-ways by a show, trying to explain it to others and real-ising that there’s no way you can do so and still sound remotely compos mentis, such as the piece about 10 years ago which consisted of a Hungarian woman in a sealed Perspex tank, per¬forming a dance routine whose duration and moves were limited by the available air in the box. If I were to say that last week I was affected beyond words by a Polish theatre company singing the ancient Sumerian Epic of Gilgamesh in the strange polyphonic harmonies of southern Albania, you’d no doubt wonder whether I’ve been getting enough sleep lately. Yet Chronicles: A Lamenta-tion by the Piesn Kozla com-pany is a remarkable piece admirable and impressive, though hardly shattering. And then, walking away from the venue a few min¬utes after it was over, I had to stop in my tracks: I was fighting back tears, for no reason I could identify. Somehow the piece had bypassed the conscious areas of my mind and tapped into the well of basic emotion. Harrowing stuff. But the main discovery of the month so far is altogether more joy-ous: a bunch of Ukrainian paper-tearing clowns: Around 1990, Italian “ori¬gami impressionist” Ennio Marchetto was the hit of the Fringe, performing a series of mime impersonations while wearing amazingly intricate costumes he had constructed out of card¬board. Marchetto returns this weekend for the first time in several years, but he may find his thunder already stolen by the Mim-I- Richi company and their show Paper World. Not that their show is as painstakingly designed . . . dean me, no. They sim¬ply tear loads of plain paper up and play with it. And I mean loads: possibly around an acre of the stuff per show. You walk into the theatre, see a huge paper backdrop and think, “Ah, that’ll be the climax of the show.” Not a bit of it: it’s already in shreds after half an hour, and the fun keeps coming. Mim-I-Richi’s discovery is a simple one: tear paper, crumple it up, and you can pretend it’s just about any-thing: a football, a baby, a maneating monster, what¬ever. It’s the same sort of aesthetic which has informed many of designer Julian Crouch’s projects in the UK with Improbable Theatre, but more endear¬ingly ramshackle. Also like Improbable, Mim-I-Richi relishes the spontaneous and unexpected; it’s that shared delight in the moment which is at the heart of the best clowning. The players go to great lengths to involve the audience in their show, and are happy to take ideas and run with them, even when the “idea” is an uncontroRa- ble little boy in the front row who won’t stop flinging balls of paper back at them. For this isn’t enforced audience participation of the “let’s pretend we’re having fun” kind. The four perform-ers manage to get hundreds of people in the Pod Deco’s main space all pratting about gleefully like kids in a playground; they create an atmosphere of free play that is intensely liberating, and make sure that every single person in the house is car¬ried along. All that without a single word of dialogue. People by the hundred are discovering Mim-I-Richi up here, but that doesn’t make the joy of serendipity any less when you find them yourself."

"A few days before the event we sent him about 80 songs we wanted him to play. He made a wonderful effort to play all. Many of our guests complimented him and want to book him for future events. His prices are fair and he will make sure your guests have a great time! Good communication skills as well. Highly recommended!"
