Review Centre: 1930s Era Musicians & Bands

"We booked Vanessa some time before our wedding, As we knew how busy she gets. We couldn't fault her. He post modern juke box show was absolutely amazing. It was perfect for our Great Gatsby themed wedding. All of our guests commented on her superb performance. Her vocal talent is outstanding. And her costumes are so glamorous."

"Brian and his band provided us with the most wonderful entertainment for our wedding this month. Right from the start Brian was easy to communicate and organise things with, they hardly required anything from us in order to come & play and where very flexible even when our plans changed at the last minute. We thoroughly enjoyed the music they played and would highly recommend them to anyone considering a band for a wedding."

"We would like to thank you and the swing band for making our silver wedding anniversary so special and such a memorable occasion for us. We had such a perfect evening and we are sure all our family and friends enjoyed themselves as much as we did. We would like to think if in the future we have another occasion to celebrate that Mr Swing would be there!"

"Thank you so much for a wonderful evening. After a stressful 2 hour drive it was truly a relaxing evening listening to Carolyn's wonderful voice and the musicians behind her. We missed the band 4 years ago at beginning of lockdown. Truly worth the wait. Thank you Carolyn for heads up email to say you were performing. We will be back. "

"We booked Mike for a solo set for a birthday party. He walked around and interacted with the guests and was wonderful. After his solo set, we booked his trio who played some lovely jazz. It was all totally acoustic so didn't disturb our very close neighbours at all."

"Thank you so much for a fabulous weekend, the feedback has been amazing. We will start looking at the other themed nights very soon so I’ll get back to you on some ideas and dates. Are you free NYE 2023/24 as this would be a great evening to do “Gatsby” in our new events space? "

"Mark Sensinger performed background music at my daughter’s bridal shower lunch at the Andover, Inn in Andover, MA. To say that he was amazing in an understatement. He did it all. As guests were arriving and mingling he played sax - a bossa nova vibe. Then, during lunch, he played background piano music, including some of his own compositions, which were creative and easy listening. Then, during dessert and coffee, when people were moving around the room again and mingling, he played keyboard and sang - mostly older and classic love songs by Frank Sinatra, Cole Porter, etc. It was unbelievable, so much like the real thing. Having live music made for a really special day. Mark is a talented and versatile musician with a varied and sophisticated repertoire and an agreeable disposition. He even came to the Andover Inn two weeks before our bridal lunch to do a sound check. He would be great at any event associated with weddings, special anniversaries and milestone birthday parties."

"The band were incredible and left everyone speechless with their gypsy and sparkling sounds. The violinist was a real highlight. After the wedding, many guests asked about the group. I can’t recommend them enough!"

"Well, where can I start! From initially stumbling upon Dr Jazz and realising that there was something rather special about their approach and unique sound, to the very first email and phone calls to discuss our plans for the day, all the way through to our Wedding day itself – Dr Jazz and company were brilliant. Helpful, friendly, and wonderfully entertaining, we could not have asked for anything more. The set itself was fantastic – we were blown away with how much of an impact they made, not only in terms of everyone feeling the urge to get up to dance (which was a slight worry for us before the day!), but also with their spot on interaction with the guests, and overall management and ownership of the evening. We really knew we’d made the right decision as soon as the first note was played – talk about creating a spectacle!! In terms of a front man Matthew is absolutely superb, and his supporting crew of brilliantly talented musicians helped make our day one to remember for both us and our guests. Thank you all so very much for everything. We know what it’s like trying to find the ‘right band’, ourselves having trawled through many hundreds of sample tracks from other people and groups, and the worries that come with it regarding whether people will like it, whether it’ll be well received etc. The best advice I can honestly give is that if you are sitting there reading this review, and you have enjoyed the sample tracks you’ve listened to, then please don’t hesitate to book these guys. You will not regret it, and you and your guests will certainly never forget it. They were nothing short of marvellous. Once again we wanted to say thank you very much for everything – we really had a fantastic time, as did everyone else in attendance, and it is all thanks to you and your crew. You certainly made the evening, if not the day for us, and we are so pleased and lucky to have been able to book you to play for us. You were nothing short of brilliant, and we can’t stop talking or thinking about how amazing you were (and nor can anyone else!) It was so lovely to meet you all in person. All the best for the future, and please rest assured that we’ll be singing your praises for the years to come!"

"“Wonderful music that everyone can hear without being disturbed. We got in touch with Jazz Centrale and, after consultation and clear explanations, chose a jazz trio. The performance was punctual and exactly as agreed. Given the composition of our guests, this trio was the perfect choice, and we received many compliments. A breath of fresh air after attending many receptions where the music was a disruptive factor (hard to converse, unsuitable repertoire, etc.).”"

"These three (Nuance Trio) were perfect! They were dressed impeccably, sounded beautiful, and made everything seem very easy. Our garden ceremony wouldn’t have been the same without their touch of class. "
