Review Centre: Singing Groups

" John V. • July 3, 2019 What a wonderful show for us Johnny Cannella recently DJ'd and performed at the scholarship awards lunch for the Grumman-Northrop Grumman Retiree Club. Johnny was great. He prepared well, planning in advance with music for the audience we described to him. He had the audience, both young and old, dancing to the tunes they loved and enjoying his singing. He brought attendees, both retirees and the high school graduates and their families, into the fun of the event, but in an unembarrassing way. We've never seen so many attendees say how much they loved a DJ and asking for his card. We certainly hope to bring him back."

"Hiring Collectives Gospel Choir for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made! We first saw them at a wedding fair and were blown away, we emailed for a quote thinking there was no way they would be within our budget but we couldn't believe how reasonable they are and instantly booked. From start to finish Laura was super helpful and responsive with emails, nothing was asking too much and they were happy to do anything we asked, she made the whole process really easy and stress free. On the day our guests were so shocked (in a good way!) when they walked into the venue to them performing. We had comments all day about them and are still getting people now texting us about how amazing they were. People were literally gasping at some of their vocals and people were in tears. The whole choir were also super friendly and smiley, I was petrified stood at the bottom of the aisle but each time I glanced over at them I was given the biggest smile and it really put me at ease. If anybody's ever debating to book please take my word for it that they will be, by far, the best decision you make."

"EVERYBODY needs to have Collectives Gospel Choir for their wedding/events. When I first saw them at a wedding fair I couldn’t leave the room I was that drawn to them. We booked them for our wedding day for welcoming, ceremony and drinks. Throughout the day numerous guests came up to us to say ‘wow they are good where did you find them!!’ and messages after to ask for their details to pass onto family and friends. They truly sound and look perfect. We can’t thank you all enough for your professionalism, ability to adapt and being the most special part of our day. 💗"

" Jennifer F. • November 22, 2016 Great Sinatra BirthdayPresent For Mom Johnny entertained at our mom's 80th birthday surprise party singing songs of Frank Sinatra who mom absolutely adores..He also sang dad's favorites of Tony Bennett & Elvis and did many guest requests. Johnny sang an absolutely beautiful rendition of mom & dad's wedding song called "Because of You" to which they danced again. FANTASTIC !! Johnny is a super sweet guy with a great sense of humor and had mom and our guests laughing with his jokes and audience participation stuff. He turned a restaurant cocktails and dinner gathering into a festive party event. Mom was blown away and we all had a terrific time. Johnny made mom's B'day super special and one that we'll always remember. Mom says you brought back wonderful Sinatra memories and she keeps referring to you as Frankie often saying " that Frankie was really great" ..And so I guess she really bought your Sinatra impression. Special Thanks from All..Jennifer PS My uncle says he wants to buy your Elvis wig to keep his head warm this winter lol"

"The choir added such a personal touch to our ceremony learning new songs at our request that meant a lot to us. We will forever remember those moments! And they got the crowd in the mood for drinks and dancing with the upbeat songs during the drinks reception. Everyone loved them and has asked how we found them!"

" Review by Robin R. Retirement Party • Reviewed on July 24, 2021 • From Seaford, NY Johnny was an absolute pleasure to have at our retirement party. To say he was prepared is an understatement! I provided him with information prior to the party and he executed it to perfection. He included some of the guests into his performance which was a blast, made jokes, gave a gift to my husband and our son due to his recent engagement. Kudos to Johnny for being so professional, personable and most of all making our party a success. I would not hesitate to hire him again for a party in the future. Don’t think twice book him now - you won’t be disappointed."

I just wish we could do it all again. Thank you SO much for being part of our day and being so amazing. Music is the most important thing to me and you created exactly what I dreamed of. Laura & Steffan xx"

"Direct descendants of a 300-year old gypsy tradition... wild and glorious... armed only with two fiddles, a guitar and the dramatic haunting power of their singing...this music that verges on theatre - virtuoso scarcely covers it.'"

"We can honestly say that The Southern Sons made a huge impact at our party. The band played many notable covers designed to get the party in the mood for dancing. With their own folk twist to songs, The Southern Sons got everyone on their feet. It was obvious that the band members were accomplished musicians and the lead singer provided an excellent vocal performance. We would definitely book the band for future events at Lower Tregiddle."

"A FANTASTIC afternoon/evening at The Golden Eagle with Father Jack. The Guiness flowed along with the songs, tunes & dancing which made for a brilliant St. Patrick's Party."
