Review Centre: Wedding Bands

"Michele is wonderful to work with. He is an amazing musician and singer, as well as DJ. He executed all of the music on our wedding day. For our ceremony, we had songs that we wanted played at specific moments from our playlist, and he nailed the timing. He and his band played beautiful music during cocktail hour and kept the energy up. He then DJed the music from our playlists of favorite songs for our reception and afterparty disco. Our friends were having so much fun and didn't want the evening to end, they even chanted "one more song" at the end of the night and Michele was kind enough to stay and oblige. We really enjoyed working with him and his band! "

"Saxophonist Lina and her band were performing at Alstom's 115th anniversary celebration in Hennigsdorf. We joined them spontaneously and were immediately captivated by her intense and emotional playing, which deeply touched the audience! Despite the very changeable weather and the rather austere setting, she managed to create a special atmosphere and a wonderful mood. Simply fantastic!! German: Die Saxophonistin Lina mit ihrer Band hatte ein Engagement im Rahmen der 115-Jahr Feier von Alstom in Hennigsdorf. Wir sind spontan dazu gestoßen und waren von ihrem intensiven Spiel voller Gefühl, das die Zuhörer unmittelbar berührt, sofort begeistert! Trotz des sehr wechselhaftem Wetters und des eher nüchternen Rahmens hat sie es geschafft, eine besondere Atmosphäre und wunderbare Stimmung zu erzeugen. Einfach klasse!!"

"In the balmy evening air of Stuart, Florida, on April 26, 2025, the Terra Fermata Tiki Bar transformed into a time machine, whisking a crowd of over 500 fans back to the legendary 1971 Fillmore East concerts. Brothers After All, the premier Allman Brothers Band tribute act hailing from Southeast Florida, took the stage for a meticulously crafted recreation of the iconic live album At Fillmore East in their first set. What unfolded was nothing short of a magical performance that captured the raw energy, improvisational genius, and soulful blues-rock essence of the original Allman Brothers Band, leaving attendees buzzing with nostalgia and awe. Terra Fermata, with its open air tiki vibe, palm trees swaying under string lights, and a stage backed by the Florida sunset, proved to be an unexpectedly perfect setting for this tribute. The venue, known for hosting eclectic acts from reggae to jam bands, was packed wall-to-wall by 8 PM, with fans spilling onto the outdoor patios. Drawing a diverse crowd: die-hard Allman aficionados in their 60s and 70s, younger jam-band enthusiasts discovering the classics, and even families introducing the next generation to Southern rock royalty. The atmosphere was electric, fueled by cold brews and the anticipation of hearing those timeless tracks come alive. Brothers After All kicked off the set with Statesboro Blues, the opener from At Fillmore East, and immediately set the tone with dual guitar harmonies that echoed Duane Allman and Dickey Betts' legendary interplay. Lead guitarist Pete Quigley channeled Duane's slide guitar wizardry with precision, his fingers dancing across the strings in a way that felt both reverent and innovative. Opposite him, rhythm guitarist Dave Lasman delivered Betts' melodic lines with fiery passion, their chemistry evident in extended jams that stretched the song well beyond its album length, much to the crowd's delight. The band didn't just play the album; they embodied it. Drummer duo Mike Loschiavo, Hosny “Hoz” Franck along with Mitch Fine on percussion replicated the thunderous percussion of Butch Trucks, and Jaimoe, locking into grooves that pulsed with organic rhythm. Bassist Will Keehner held down the low end with Berry Oakley's funky precision, while keyboardist/vocalist Lefty Hathaway nailed Gregg Allman's vocals and Hammond B3 organ swells. Highlights included the epic 23-minute rendition of "Whipping Post," where the band's improvisations ventured into psychedelic territories, and "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed," which featured a jaw-dropping drum solo that had the audience on their feet. What made this show truly unbelievable was the attention to detail. Brothers After All used period accurate gear to recreate the warm, analog sound of the original recordings. They played the album in sequence, complete with the between song banter and crowd noise cues that fans know by heart. By the time they closed with You Don't Love Me, the tiki bar felt like Fillmore itself, alive with cheers and applause. Audience reactions were overwhelmingly positive, with many attendees praising the band's authenticity and energy. Here's a roundup of remarks from attendees we spoke with post-show: Tom H., 68, from Palm Beach Gardens: I've seen the real Allmans back in 72, and these guys nailed it. The guitar duels were spot on it felt like Duane was up there smiling down. Best tribute I've ever seen! Sarah L., 32, from Jupiter: I'm new to the Allman Brothers, but this show hooked me. The jams were endless and so hypnotic. Over 500 people dancing under the stars! Unforgettable. Brothers After All made me a fan for life. Mike and Lisa R., a couple in their 50s from Stuart: We come to Terra Fermata all the time, but this was next level. The crowd was huge, but the vibe was intimate. Stormy Monday gave me chills the vocals were pure Gregg. Kudos to the band for keeping the spirit alive! Emily K., 25, from Miami (visiting family): As a Phish fan, I love long jams, and this delivered. The energy was insane; everyone was singing along. Wish they would tour more; I'd follow them like the Deadheads do! Anonymous fan overheard in the crowd: This wasn't a cover band; it was a resurrection. With that many people packed in, it could have been chaotic, but the sound was crystal clear. Epic night! Minor quibbles: The outdoor venue meant occasional wind affecting the sound mix early on, and with such a large turnout, lines for drinks were long during set breaks. But these were footnotes in an otherwise flawless evening. Brothers After All proved why they're considered one of today’s top tribute acts, blending respect for the source material with their own flair. If you're a fan of classic rock, jam bands, or just great live music, catch Brothers After All show "

"I hired the DeeVines for my 50th birthday bash November 2022. They were very professional indeed, they were on site, set up and out of the way before my guests arrived. From the moment they started playing they had my friends and family on the dance floor. However, the biggest surprise was that my partner told them that I was a huge Gary Numan fan and despite them being a RnB band, they learnt a Gary Numan song just for me and even let me sing it with the band, what a fantastic gesture, that really made my night!! The days that followed I was asked multiple times who the band was, and I was more than happy to pass on their details. I wouldn’t think twice about booking these guys again for any future celebration. If you are thinking of booking them, just do it, you won’t be disappointed."

"We had Guty & Simone play at our wedding at the Villa Catignano. I heard about the two on tripadvisor and everybody seemed to be very happy with having them. It is the same for us...everything worked out perfect from the beginning: They answered our questions without leaving anything out, offering advice and beeing very helpfull with the decision of the music. They were on time at the venue, worked very professionally and the quality of the music is great! Good mix between old favorites and new songs. I was worried at first, because half of our guests were Chinese and they are NOT dancing people...but Guty & Simone got them on their feet and dancing until the end! I would recommend them without a doubt. You'll have good entertainment with professional work were you don't have to worry about anything."

"I highly recommend The Mirrors. Absolute 10/10. They performed at our wedding, and our guests LOVED them as much as we did. They are both so talented and full of positive energy and good vibes. The Mirrors reply to messages very quickly and are very flexible to play at the times you wish for them to. They are so friendly and helpful with any questions. Their song list is incredible, and they also give you the option to request beforehand any separate songs too. The Mirrors played for us both during our meal and for a couple of hours after, too, and it was just perfect. They got all of our guests involved, with everyone singing and dancing with them, and they played both inside and outside of our venue. We are so glad that we found The Mirrors to perform. If you’re looking for a band/ roaming band, look no further! Thank you to The Mirrors, you are great, what a special day!"

"Un diez en todos los sentidos. Queríamos hacer una presentación diferente de nuestra empresa. Alex se mostró entusiasmado con la idea desde el primer momento. Colaborador. Proactivo. Creativo. Le dimos las ideas clave que queríamos transmitir y escribió él mismo la letra, adaptándola a un tema flamenco. Nuestros clientes, directores de marketing y comunicación de algunas de las principales marcas de alimentación españolas, alucinaron. Nunca habían disfrutado de nada igual. Exitazo. "
