"Johnny White and the Elite Band is amazing! They played at my Retirement Legacy Ball celebrating my 35 years of service in Theatre Education. The variety of songs and energy made the evening spectacular! Bravo! You can never go wrong with Johnny White and the Elite Band". ----Wendell Tabb, Retired Educator"

"We were delighted with Raphael and the Blue Moon Jazz Band who provided a wonderful soundtrack for our wedding reception at the Hotel Kolbe in Rome less than two weeks ago. The band played during the aperitivo and then again after dinner when they were joined by their fantastic singer. We loved their sound and wished they could have played longer. As one of my dearest friends said, whose brother is a jazz musician, when the band was playing it was more like being at a concert than “only” listening to background music. Raphael was always very prompt in all his replies and as kind and considerate as possible, while the musicians as a whole, including the singer, impressed us all with the quality of their sound. All our guests remarked on how wonderful the band was, including our younger guests who greatly enjoyed dancing away at jazz pieces they would not normally listen to, as well as the jazz buffs amongst us of which there were many. We would not hesitate to contact the band again for future events and therefore would also wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone else! Thank you for a beautiful jazzy evening… Enrica and Rombout"

"I highly recommend the Blue Moon Jazz Band. We booked them during the pandemic and had to move our date – Raphael was so accommodating and understanding which made it very easy. On the day the band played at our ceremony, apperitivo and dinner. Raphael had reached out to me to ask about our preferred songs and they were all played perfectly on the day. He even was able to make some fantastic suggestions when we weren’t sure what to go for. All our guests also loved the band and we received so many comments on how lovely an atmosphere they managed to create. THANK YOU Blue Moon Jazz band! You really made a huge difference to our wedding day and I am so glad we had you there."

"We asked Central Avenue to play at David Lloyd Clubs annual management awards in Glasgow in December 2021 and were certainly not disappointed with our choice!!!! The band were fantastic, the choice of music and genre was extremely fitting for an audience that spanned generations and the sound made for great listening keeping our team dancing well into the early hours. I would recommend Central Avenue for any function that you are planning, we will definitely be using them for future events. Thanks for a great evening"

"The Cheers played our wedding on 4th July 2026 in Greenwich London and were fantastic. Everyone had a great time and commented how good the music was. For us the interaction was easy in the build up to the day. Communication was clear and the band were very accommodating with music choices, learning our first dance and music schedule. When you’re organising many things is nice to work with people that are friendly and helpful. One highlight for us was our 8 year old daughter joining the band on stage to sing love story. It was a lovely memory for her and us as a family and we a thankful to the band for allowing that impromptu moment. In short - we would definitely recommend The Cheers for weddings and any other functions for that matter."
