"The band was perfect in all the management of the music in the different locations within the party's venue. they are all very nice and the show is fantastic. We especially appreciated the music of the 50s/60s, and twist and rock and roll. the guests all danced, without exception. Thanks Contrabbandiati"

"Great band! Really transformed our festival into a merry event. Big Smoke got people dancing, and played a nice mix of Christmas songs and covers of Pop songs. We would book them again."

Hello Sr. everything is ok but there is a little mistake and it is that you have to type again where it say "name of reviewer" you have to type your name and not it mine

"The Latin Lovers are amazing!!! Not only are Juan and Vern gifted musicians, but they also share something much more important when they perform, they share a genuine love of music and life. The Lovers are among the greatest acts performing today in that they are consistently able to make every single person at their show feel completely welcomed in. They exude a passion and joy that brings everyone right in and they will make you feel that there is no separation between performer and audience. They are guaranteed to lift your spirits and get you moving and shaking."

"It has been brilliant to work with Harry on our last few events. Harry is professional and nails every single piece that we work on together! If you are looking for a trumpeter that will smash every performance give Harry a call! "

"What a wonderful addition to any event! The Ambrassadors bring a feel-good vibe along with their instruments. Our company hired them for our centenary celebrations, and they were the perfect way to lift the mood and make people feel relaxed. They were brilliant to work with and the whole process was effortless. Would definitely recommend."

"We had the pleasure to have Cranberry Flick at our event. They were a joy to listen to and we had some lovely comments from our customers about the band. They are professional and well organised which was very refreshing! We would highly recommend Cranberry Flick for any events - wedding, parties etc and we’re positive you will love them as much as we did!"

"Jack Bowers The Rick Holland—Evan Dobbins Little Big Band Trilby RPO Productions Five years after a sensational opening act (In Time's Shadow, 2006), trumpeter Rick Holland and trombonist Evan Dobbins have returned for an encore, Trilby, marshaling as before their irrepressible Little Big Band. As was noted of that earlier recording, "the only thing small about [this band] is its numbers." Baritone saxophonist Dean Keller, who shared that chair with Kerry Strayer on Shadow, also returns. The rest of the lineup is brand new, with Evan Dobbins' dad, the well-known educator Bill Dobbins (Eastman School of Music), replacing the splendid pianist John Nyerges. Besides shining at the keyboard, Bill Dobbins wrote "My Darling Darlene" and arranged half of the album's other ten numbers. Although he doesn't play this time around, Strayer composed "Rich's Call" and arranged Sonny Stitt's "Eternal Triangle" and Oscar Pettiford's "Tricotism," while Brent Wallarab wrote "Trilby" and arranged Benny Golson's "Stablemates." Bill Dobbins' engaging charts brighten three originals by Hendrik Meurkens—"Slidin," "Second Waltz," "The Cottage"—as well as Hal Crook's "Fused" and Alec Wilder's lovely standard, "While We're Young" (a reprise from the band's earlier album). Holland, who plays flugelhorn exclusively, solos strongly on seven numbers, striking the ball with assurance and perception on every turn at bat. Bill Dobbins ("Slidin," "The Cottage," "Trilby," "Darlene," "Tricotism") amplifies the message, as do Evan Dobbins ("Slidin," "Fused"), Doug Stone (alto on "Stablemates," clarinet on "Second Waltz," soprano on "Trilby" and "While We're Young"), tenor Mike Pendowski ("Eternal Triangle," "Fused," "Rich's Call"), trombonist Nick Finzer ("Second Waltz," "Tricotism"), bassist David Baron ("The Cottage," "Tricotism") and blue-chip drummer Rich Thompson ("Eternal Triangle," "Fused," "Rich's Call"). When they're not having their say, the ensemble is front and center, giving each of the charts its single-minded attention. The result is music that flows easily without miscue. Trilby marks a second triumph by the Holland / Dobbins Little Big Band, which, as was noted after its debut album, "is more big than little, in every sense of the word." Those who appreciate a tight, swinging band, even if slightly undersized, are sure to admire Trilby."

"WOW! WOW! WOW! Bravo! This band was amazing! We hired them to perform at a venue in Geneva, Switzerland called 'Uptown Geneva' (a great venue I would recommend too!) Everyone at our event had a great time dancing and singing along. Mara's voice is astonishing and she is such a lovely person to talk with! 10/10 would hire again! Very easy to work with, very professional and accommodating. Their music catalogue is full of fun, popular songs everyone will know. If you are looking for a talented, fun group of musicians for your event - look no further - Mara and the Brass Cats is your band! Trust me :-) "

"I hired Mason for my 30th Great Gatsby and he was absolutely incredible. All of my guests commented on how amazing he was from playing old school to current hits. He was such a delight and as someone who knows nothing about playing a musical instrument, I left it all in Masons hands and he went beyond my expectations. Mason, Thank you truly for creating such a special night. It was amazing!! "

"Hired this excellent band for my wedding and they did not disappoint. They performed a great variety of songs that had people up on the dance floor all night. I would definitely hire these guys again if I were having a big enough party, or failing that see them perform in London would be great."

"“The Ambrassadors promised to get our guests on their feet and they certainly did exactly that! They were professional from start to finish. The whole room was filled with guests dancing and singing along to their incredibly talented sounds, most guests even stated this band was the best part of the event. I would highly recommend booking them!” "
