"The Tri Tones played at our family party last week and were absolutely great. The age range of our guests was from 1 - 90+ and, without exception, everyone loved the music. The band arrived in good time, were cheerful, flexible and played beautifully. I would highly recommend them. Apart from sharp renditions of traditional favourites, they had taken the time to learn a Springsteen classic (requested) - which was fantastic. Our party was in a church hall with doors open on to a garden - people commented how well the band modulated their performance so that it was always significant but never too loud. Thanks Tri Tones - we will definitely be in touch for the next big event!"

"Andrea what a talented man you are. Andrea treated the 12 of us to his beautiful voice, guitar playing and violin and it was the most wonderful evening. What a talented man he is. Andrea would be a wonderful addition to any party and I could not recommend him enough. "

"We first heard of Pablo through our wedding planner and were attracted to the the idea of having a Spanish guitarist at our wedding. After viewing some of his material on YouTube we felt that he was talented and his style would suit the type of wedding we were trying to plan. We were able to chat with him via WhatsApp and we found this to be really helpful as he could any answer questions quickly without having to go through the wedding planner. We met Pablo in person for the 1st time in March 2019 3 months before our wedding and he was very nice & friendly and was happy to chat with us about the music we would like to be played, he offered some suggestions and gave his expert advice on what would work well for our ceremony. We were having a ceremony in Balcon de Europa and did not necessarily want hymns. He offered to learn any songs we would like as long as he would have enough time. The day of the wedding arrived and as I entered to walk up the aisle Pablo was playing the most beautiful music which immediately put me at ease, we had a beautiful ceremony and Pablo’s ideas for music fitted perfectly with this. He was dressed very nicely and looked very professional. We had also booked Pablo to play at our drinks reception after the ceremony and he created a fun relaxed atmosphere. He even played Metallica which I was delighted about! Many of the guests remarked on his talent and we were without doubt thrilled that we chose Pablo to be our musician for our special day. We would highly recommend him to anyone getting married and cannot praise him enough. We purchased some of his CDs and have been playing them since we got home and it brings back wonderful memories of our special day. –"

"The very first time we heard Gemma Ashley sing, she performed "In the Arms of an Angel" on a YouTube channel. We absolutely loved her voice and knew she would be the ideal singer for our Christmas wedding in 2022, and we were so fortunate that our wedding date suited her diary. Little did we know, then, that Gemma would - in a metaphorical sense - come to provide those very angelic, reassuring arms for us on our wedding day, as we were faced with a number of unexpected challenges (including train strikes, snow chaos, and traffic delays). It all added to the stresses of the day, particularly for the bridal party, who were not sure they would even make it to wedding in time. However, the moment we entered the Church and were met by Gemma's soaring aria as she performed her opening song to the Groom ("Nella Fantasia"), any worries and anxieties magically disappeared. Instead, a wonderful sense of calm and serenity descended - like arms of an angel - where Gemma's song, accompanied on the piano by amazing Paolo Freitas, literally transported us to a breathtakingly beautiful, almost etheral, space in time. From that point, everything fell into place, and Gemma became our guiding light and steadfast beacon for the rest of the day and evening. Not only was she our amazing soprano for our wedding ceremony, singing five songs in four different languages (Italian, Latin, Portuguese and English!), but she single-handedly provided the full musical entertainment for our wedding reception, covering everything from Depeche Mode to Abba - and even led the wedding party in a surprise Les Miserables flash mob! We are indebted to Gemma for making our wedding day the huge and unforgettable success that it was; her work ethic and professionalism is second to none, and her warmth, great sense of humour and generosity of spirit is something we will never forget. We feel we did not just hire a singer for our special day, but a true artist who engaged everyone with her presence and creative performance, and who has become a friend for life. We cannot recommend Gemma enough. She will bring joy and light and life-time memories to any special events, giving 110% until the very moment the lights go out for the night. Perhaps the greatest testament to the lasting effect that Gemma had on our wedding day was when the Priest himself leaned over and whispered to us during the ceremony: "Where did you find this singer? She is fantastic." We would only like to add that choosing this lovely young woman to sing at our wedding, and at the reception, was one of the best, if not the best, decision, that we made when arranging our wedding. Thank you so much, Gemma. We love you xxx. Anna Hammerin and David Markham "

"Absolutely Brilliant! I can wholeheartedly recommend Rafael. He was professional in his approach and considered his playlist. We were a smallish house party (24) of mixed ages and within 30 mins of Rafael playing most of us were up dancing. My only regret was we only booked an hour and it went so fast. It was the first time I had booked a musician to play at home and we are now planning on booking him for our summer bash. !"

"I found James while perusing for a live musician for a surprise 70th birthday party we were holding for our mum. From start to finish, James was communicative and kept me informed every step of the way. We welcomed mum in while James played a small DJ set, then he sang live. I was blown away by his talent and the hypnotic smoothness of his voice. He played a further set after a break and really got the crowd up and dancing. All in all, a highly talented musician and I commend anyone who can get to the high pitches of the Spice Girls :-) We had some of the guests round for breakfast for the following morning and they too were completely blown away by his talent. Thank you so much James, you are one of a kind and we will definitely be calling on you again! You made everyone’s night, but most importantly, you made my mum’s night."

"Best Brass band I’ve come across. Super professional and with a very cool repertoire of music. One anthem after another. If you need a party band this is it! The fact that they can perform anywhere without electricity was such a bonus! Thank you 🙏 "

"As musicians ourselves, we thought finding the perfect music to accompany our wedding in Tuscany would be difficult. However Blue Moon Jazz quickly set us at ease. After being impressed with their sound on video, we managed to organise seeing the band instrumentally at a nearby venue they were playing whilst visiting our venue. They were so friendly and happy to let us come along for a live listen. They sounded even better in real life! Pianist and band leader Raphael was informative and communicative throughout our planning process. Their musicianship and talent is top notch and they sounded amazing during our ceremony, aperitif and party. The guests all commented on how great they sounded and how much they enjoyed dancing and singing along. The vocals and each instrument were played to perfection. I cannot recommend them enough. To top it off Blue Moon let us play a song with them on the wedding night! Thank you Raphael, Bernardo, Paolo & Nanà, you were awesome! "

"Eduardo was simply incredible! The sound of the violin echoed throughout the village where I got married. It was amazing! Eduardo was the best hire I could have made for my wedding day. He was always in a good mood and he did everything I asked for without any problems. If you are looking to make your ceremony unforgettable, the best thing to do is to hire Edu and the violin. People loved it! I highly recommend it."
