"Dear Camino Sonoro gorgeous band! You were absolutely marvellous at our party at home and how everyone has been raving about you since then. Everyone commented on your unique trans-generational appeal. You are loved by all! Thank you so so much!! And you allowed our daughter to improvise with you - it was marvellous. :))"

"Let’s face it. Music soothes, heals, excites, entertains and inspires. Legendary Jazz Drummer and Bandleader, Art Blakey even said “(it) washes away the dust of everyday life.” I’ll go with that. That very moment when any artist starts to sing or play, is critical. We all want to be entertained, not just played to. And one more observation, if they look like they’re having fun - I am too. The Jazz Kings performed to a sell-out audience at the Brisbane Jazz Club: they brought their musical goods right through the front door and into our hearts and souls. The key difference is in the delivery. It’s called engagement, the sparkle in their eyes as they share their love of Jazz with everyone in the room. The Jazz Kings' repertoire is wide, impressive and constantly updated. It includes a couple of original pieces, but you can’t quite tell as they are very cleverly cloaked with the fabric of that particular era. What makes their evening different is their cheerful unpredictability. Not every song has each person doing an instrumental. (Which often can be tedious.) Two tunes might even be performed one after another without a formal introduction. Look out for some gentle fun inclusion with the audience – that’s the chance to sing along. It’s an old-fashioned but proven concept that has you laughing – and wondering where the night went. All-in-all, a thoroughly entertaining night. I’d go again. And again!"

"Fleur sang at our wedding this month and she was awesome. She sang me down the aisle - Etta James' 'At Last' and it was absolutely perfect. It was a beautiful way to kick off our wedding and all of the guests commented about how amazing Fleur's voice is. After the ceremony Fleur played at our afternoon reception, accompanied by her brilliant pianist. It was a lovely atmosphere and lots of the guests were joining in with the songs. I loved every minute of it. Fleur's voice sends shivers down your spine and she sang some of my favourite tunes. She puts her own spin on the songs and this is why I wanted her to play at our wedding. I would highly recommend Fleur; she adds that little something different, perfect and unique."

"Tracy made sure that all her songs were what we wanted - even adding songs in and learning them for the evening - above and beyond. She instantly got our guests singing and dancing her empathy was outstanding. I have no hesitation in recommending her to get any party going - all you want in a live singer. Thank you so much Tracy."

"We saw the Tom Harvey Trio at the Penny Royal for an intimate jazz night. Some of the best live jazz music I've seen in Cardiff! Can't wait to see them perform again"

"Perfect accompaniment We were a bit nervous because we hadn’t been able to see you perform before Saturday, but those nerves disappeared quickly. It was the perfect musical backdrop to what was a perfect evening for us. You struck exactly the right tone — not too heavy, not too light. Even the non-jazz lovers among our guests liked it very much. I’d have no problem recommending you to others. "

"The three-piece jazz band that graced our Holiday Soiree on Friday night delivered a truly memorable performance. Their skillful interplay and smooth transitions between classic jazz standards and festive favorites set the perfect tone for the evening. A true highlight of the evening, the jazz trio added a sophisticated yet joyful touch, making the holiday soiree a resounding success. We would highly recommend them for any event seeking a blend of elegance and entertainment."

"Ed and Paul played at our drinks reception at the Beverley Barn on 10th Aug. They were very professional throughout the afternoon and we couldn't have asked for any more. Everyone enjoyed the jazz and they really helped the afternoon to go smoothly. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for music at their wedding."

"‘Thank you so much to Chris who performed at my birthday party. Such a wonderful performer and great singer. He performed all of the songs I requested and nothing was too much trouble. By the end of the night everyone was up dancing and I received many compliments about Chris. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him for another event – he really was brilliant!' "

"The Swing Quartet played wonderful music at the vernissage of my exhibition in De Breek in Oosthuizen. High quality. And especially for me, my favorite song from the Andrew sisters ' bei mir bist du shein' . Fantastic."

"The Uptown Society Orchestra may have had six members, but it sounded as if it had twice as many as members blew triumphantly throughout New Years' eve night.
