"I highly recommend The Crotchet Club. They created such a classic atmosphere with their music repertoire and performed amazingly. They delivered excellent service on my late husband’s memorial event. Thanks you so much."

"We came across the band Hot Wings quite by accident and we are incredibly happy about it. We couldn't have chosen a better musical accompaniment to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Schrack Technik. At an event for hundreds of people there was dancing, guests were having fun and the dance floor was empty at most during the breaks. The chosen repertoire was excellent, with both younger and older ages coming into their own, and the band was one of the first things guests praised after the celebration. The communication before the event was also great, quick, everything was fine-tuned at the joint meeting in the space, and there was not a single problem on the day of the celebration. Thank you for the amazing music at our party, it was a great experience for everyone!"

"I've seen many tribute acts, but Greg Ballad's performance stands out as exceptional. His dedication to honoring Luther Vandross, Barry White, and Teddy Pendergrass was evident in every note. The passion and respect he brought to each song made the evening unforgettable"

"Greg Ballad's tribute performance was pure magic. His ability to capture the essence and nuances of Luther Vandross, Barry White, and Teddy Pendergrass was astounding. I was transported back in time, reliving the soulful melodies in the most authentic and heartfelt way."

"My rating is based on the amazing interaction and service provided by S&R Music. I dealt with Clyde Visagie who from the first interaction was professional, upfront and very accommodating. My request was late, we had some limitations to deal with but Clyde and his band members were professional and accommodating and the evening was a great success. Compliments all round and my colleagues were very appreciative of the offering by S&R music. Thank you Clyde and the rest of the team."

"Chloe's Wedding in Pentland Hills, Nov 2024 Andrew was incredible. We hired him for both my dad's 60th and then my wedding a few weeks later and both times he blew us away. All of our guests were commenting on how good he was. We just let him do his thing and he gauged the audience and played the perfect music. We not only love his style and voice but him as a person, he was an absolute delight to have on our special days. "

"Everything was perfectly arranged Everything was perfectly arranged! What appealed most to us was how quickly everything could be organized and scheduled. The saxophonist was a huge added value to the whole event. We’re already looking for an excuse for our next party! "

"Where do I begin? In a nutshell, Mike Goudreau Trio put our event over the top. He communicated with me prior to the event to iron out the details, they arrived promptly to set up, and my guests are still commenting on how wonderful their music was! I used Gig Masters for the first time, and they delivered the best! Mike, you and your group made my parents anniversary party extra special. I told you in person, but once again you did an amazing job. Anyone looking for a talented, reliable, exceptional group for their event should look no further than Mike Goudreau!!! See you at our next family gathering. Your fan and very satisfied client, "

"Kenny Kirby [2021] - Playin' The Cracks (Selected Tracks) [Philly Fillet Records] I came across this artist via DJ Melismo's (aka Mats Olofsson) latest podcast in which he played "Someday We'll All Be Free" (and what a version!), so decided to check out the rest of the album Kenny Kirby's name may not be well known but he has been performing for over forty years with top acts such as Van Morrison, Charlie Grace, Sly & The Family Stone, Delfonics, Three Degrees, Major Harris, Billy Paul, Intruders, Blue Notes, Soul Survivors and was conductor for The Tymes. He is a piano player from Birmingham, AL, and released, what looks like, his debut album "Playin' The Cracks" in April. It is mainly covers, smooth jazz, some instrumentals and some quite MOR tunes, but three tracks did get my attention. I'm fairly sure it's not Kenny singing as some of the vocals are female. No one else is credited on the album, so I'm guessing they are unnamed guest vocalists on the vocal tracks. The three tracks are a cover of Donny Hathaway's "Someday We'll All Be Free", "Some Things Never Change" and "Ultimate Lover" a song written by Linda Creed and Dennis Matkosky."
