Review Centre: 1990s Era Musicians & Bands

"I hired EUPHORIC for my friends surprise birthday bash and they delivered a great performance all around. They had a versatile range of songs to choose from and were also happy to take on some other tunes which were not in their list. They were easygoing, dedicated, hardworking personas and also a funny bunch to hang out with. I would definitely love to work with them again!! ❤️"

"“Petty Party put on a fantastic performance that our community truly enjoyed. We estimated the crowd at between 3,800–4,000 attendees—our biggest turnout of the year so far—and the energy was incredible. They delivered an engaging and high-quality show that clearly resonated with the audience. We’ll definitely be keeping them in mind for future years of our Concert Series.”

"Wir haben Martina Music für unsere Hochzeit engagiert und wir waren von Anfang bis Ende sehr zufrieden. Martina und ihre Band waren Mega sympathisch und haben musikalisch echt was drauf. Auch bei unseren Gästen kamen sie sehr gut an. Es hat einfach alles gepasst. Martina war sehr zuverlässig und ist auf alle Wünsche die wir hatten eingegangen. Sie hatte sich stets Zeit genommen, wenn wir Fragen zum Ablauf hatten und sie hat immer zeitnah geantwortet. Sie haben eine große Auswahl an Liedern. Es war einfach alles dabei, von Lounge, Jazz bis hin zur Party-Music aller Musikgenre. Und alles was sie gespielt haben klang echt super und hat eine mega Stimmung verbreitet oder hat zum entspannen eingeladen. Es hat einfach Spaß gemacht zu Tanzen und zu feiern. Alles was wir vereinbart haben, wurde von Martina und ihrer Band auch so umgesetzt. Trotz dessen, dass sie sich einen sehr weiten Anfahrtsweg hatten. Wir können Martina Music zu 100% weiterempfehlen und danken euch, dass ihr unseren wunderschönen Tag mit eurem Gesang und Instrumental verschönert habt. Liebe Grüße Johanna & Marco"

"We asked Simon and Aden to play music for our surprise wedding and we could not be any happier. Many comments from people who attended complimenting them and their music. Simon and Aden are terrific people, easy to talk and deal with when it came to arranging everything. If you want a great duo the you the. We highly recommend them. Thanks for helping make our night memorable. Cheers Tata & Mark"

"Booked the band for our wedding, they put on a wonderful show and Harrison was extremely helpful in the prep, leaving me relaxed on my wedding and sure that the night would go to plan. Would happily recommend!"

"As a music journalist, I am someone well used to hearing performances covering the whole spectrum of ability, from very talented, to no talent whatsoever; mainly on the working circuit, encountering much from the bottom end of the scale, the flaws of which seemingly pass by, or go over the heads of the audience, mediocre musical acts often gaining acceptance despite (or because of) their lack of any talent whatsoever. So, when on a random whim, I booked MAYHEM into The Old Crown, Hayes, I was pleasantly surprised to come across that jewel one constantly seeks: a light hidden in the bushel, an act of great quality. Don’t get me wrong, on the surface, MAYHEM are basically just another covers band, with certainly not much more to offer in terms of choice of material than others treading the same circuit. The difference though, is in the depth of thought in the vocal arrangements, and the attention to detail in the performance of the songs. Someone in the band has true musical knowledge. The way the vocals are arranged and used is no accident, and the music has a depth and surety that is pure class. Carol’s voice is unique, and at many points conveys rare emotion for those who can hear. The two voices are a happy accident of coincidence; Carol’s rather treble voice, Billy’s gruff baritone, both interesting voices taken in isolation, but together producing a sound that is perhaps greater than the sum of its parts. The quality of both singers shows itself also in the faultlessly correct intonation, the thrilling blend and invention of the harmonies, the search for expression in the vocals, the subtle use of the arrangements to produce expression. Most of these subtleties are of course lost on the general public, but the band still have enough battle-hardened experience and know-how to ride out any waves of indifference, and overcome the hardest heart with a friendly approach to their clientele, patiently trying out various styles and eras, constantly striving to reach their listeners, despite a kind of yearning in the music for serious recognition. Personally, I found it somewhat sad that a talented band like this has to resort to some popular (and bland) material, but one must bow to reality, and work is work. Still, the musicians didn’t just accept the status quo of this material; they always had a few surprises in store in the way they approached any song, however scraped from the bottom of the barrel. Carol’s voice sounded at its best on songs like “SUMMER OF ’69” and “I DON’T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT”, but she shone through on harder songs too, like “LIVING ON A PRAYER” and “DON’T BRING ME DOWN”. Billy didn’t sing quite as many lead lines, but when he did, it was with a power and confidence that knew just how best to carry the melody, and the strength of harmony singing was in a different league from the average one would expect to hear in a situation like this. On “Living La Vida Loca” the dual vocals were outstanding, perhaps the most equal blend of the day, with other such highlights for me being “Don’t Stop me Now” and “I Wanna Know what Love is”. The locals however enjoyed some of the lighter material more, such as “Rockabilly Rebel”, square dancing their way through the afternoon with great whoops and hollers, playing their part in a very pleasant day in a very pleasant pub. There was a humorous moment when the lads at the bar joined in with “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’” all pointing and dancing in the manner of Tom Cruise in “Top Gun”! A vivid sight to behold, for sure! The day ended with a raucous rendition of “Rockin’ All Over The World”, the two singers showing that they could rock it with the best of them when the chips are down. Can’t wait to see this band again. (10 / 10) Andrew Staines "

"I can't recommend rough justice highly enough. When booking my wedding entertainment, Noel was professional and friendly and the quote was very reasonable. On our wedding day, many guests said how much they enjoyed the live band, which started with soft music to more lively, singing great modern tunes. Really pleased, would book again!"
