Review Centre: Blues Bands

"Thank you so much to you and the singers on Saturday, the feedback from all staff is that they ALL had an amazing time! This is now the 3rd time we have booked the singers for our company annual party and they have never disappointed. Its hard to distinguish their voices from the original artists, the interaction with the participants is great. Maybe the 3rd time we have booked them, it certainly wont be the last! I would highly recommend to anyone!"

"Now look, getting to witness a musician like Neil playing his first solo show in this format, bare foot, and to a crowd at a packed out pub, is one thing... the crowd (including us) were absolutely blown away, elevated, and swept off to space, throughout Neil's set. This has become a real highlight for us as a band, something we didn't stop talking about the whole way home on Sunday... but then we had to follow this act with our own headline set! Neil was absolutely incredible, sharing a stage with such talent was an honour"

"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."

"Here's more clear evidence courtesy of Italian-born saxophonist Mirko Fait's quintet that tasteful jazz doesn't run its course at America's borders. These are accomplished musicians who know how to swing and can hold their heads high in any company, foreign or domestic. On the other hand, there is nothing here that sets Fait's group apart from many others of its size and makeup; it is simply a well-schooled working ensemble doing its thing, no more and no less. Fait, who plays soprano and tenor sax, is joined on the front line by flugel Roberto Piermartire, who, like Fait, is an accomplished musician whose solos are invariably polished if not otherwise exceptional. Pianist Antonio Zambrini is another strong soloist, while bassist Rodrigo Amaral amplifies the group's persona by adding his husky baritone on four selections. The quintet's other member, drummer Roby Giannella, is a solid timekeeper who tends to his duties without stepping on anyone's toes. Guitarist Giampiero Spina adds a pastel solo voice on "Sad Eyes Child," "B Mine" and "Funny Day." The program is composed primarily (eight of ten tracks) of compositions by Fait, and they are melodic and charming if less than memorable. Several are in a Latin mode including Amaral's vocals on "Quanno Chiove," "Rebecca Smile," "Nada Mais" and "Aquarela." While the quintet is pictured on the inside jacket performing at the Sant' Elpidio Jazz Festival, Confidences was recorded in a studio, most likely at Fait's home base, Milan. Other particulars are elusive, as the liner notes are in Italian. What is most germane, of course, is whether Fait's quintet is proficient and worth hearing, and the answer to that is yes. The songs, all originals, are for the most part bright and charming, and the quintet plays them well. Although there is nothing here that blazons superiority, neither is there anything that is less than well-managed. Track Listing: Lastlove; Sad Eyes’ Child; Quanno Chiove; Never Alone Melita; Rebecca Smile; All I Missed; B Mine; Nada Mais; Funny Day; Aquarela. Personnel: Mirko Fait: soprano, tenor saxophone; Roberto Piermartire: flugelhorn; Antonio Zambrini: piano; Giampiero Spina: guitar (2, 7, 9); Rodrigo Amaral: electric bass, voice; Roby Giannella: drums. Title: Confidences | Year Released: 2017 | Record Label: Jazz Di Marca"

"A friend of ours told us about this duo. We checked through the web and immediately called them for our wedding party. They were even better than we expected! As a guitar player myself, I appreciated Andrea's skills, but you don't need to be a musician to be charmed by Martina's stunning voice. We are Diadema fans now and follow them live, every time we can! "

"I have been meaning to message you directly also to thank you. What you produced the night of our wedding was nothing short of magical - and I do not say this lightly. I am very happy to hear the band enjoyed the evening - I think their enjoyment and energy showed through their music. The feedback we have had from guests is overwhelming, particularly that the band and the singer (I don't remember his name) was the best they have ever heard at a wedding. You guys nailed the performance. I am so happy that we decided to do a live version, you could not have gotten the same energy and vibe with just a recording / original version. Your two sets were also perfect. There were a few times that we all stopped in the marquee to listen and appreciate the music, particularly My Way - I remember looking around and quite a few people were singing along! I think another sign of a success of a wedding is the number of people on the dance floor, and there was not an empty space during the second set. The amount of people of all ages dancing was a true highlight for me as we wanted this to be a wedding that everyone would enjoy - not just us. "

"This band has a really good sound. Quality rock music. They play music that has great beats and rhythms. They cover the classic rock bands and their original songs have a real bluesy feel. "

"Ho chiamato i ragazzi per una festa privata e ne sono rimasto alquanto sorpreso! Sono stati in grado di coinvolgere tutti i miei invitati con il loro format del viaggio della musica! Le canzoni del passato presente e futuro ci hanno fatto scatenare, ballare e anche commuoverci! Divertimento garantito e professionalità al top! "
