"I’ve worked with Harry both live and in the studio a number of times and I would highly recommend him. He’s a fantastic player with great versatility and arrangement skills and his positive and professional attitude is second to none."

"We had Judikael play sax alongside our DJ at a very short notice and he did not dissapoint! He was amazing! We're a UK couple who got married in France and we were a little aprehensive due to the language barrier, but Judikeal absolutely smashed it! We couldnt thank him enough for saving the day when our previous sax player cancelled at such short notice. Judikael was stationary as well as walking and having a boogie on the dancefloor whilst playing sax along with the music. He really made some songs his own and made them sound even better. He was honestly absolutely brilliant! Thank you so much Judikael, you were amazing! 10/10 would recommend!!"

"So tight! So talented! Amazing performers with impeccable choice in both wonderfully well written originals and stunning covers of crowd pleasing favourites. One of my favourite bands I've ever seen! "

"We were honestly blown away. Everyone loved the band – it’s all anyone was talking about! One of our friends who’s getting married next year has even cancelled the band she had booked so she could book The Ambrassadors instead! I may be biased, but I think it’s the best wedding band I’ve ever seen. We can’t thank you enough."

"The Big Smoke Brass guys certainly know how to put on a show! Familiar and well-loved pop songs played in a way you definitely won’t have heard before. Thoroughly entertaining and never lacking in energy, enthusiasm and swagger. They clearly love playing their instruments and it shows. Dispense with the boring DJ or the covers band you’re thinking of and get them instead. "

"“The Ambrassadors were absolutely incredible, they went above and beyond to make our wedding so special. From making a surprise entrance through the back of the venue to dancing on the dancefloor with everyone. All the guests could not get over how amazing they were and are still talking about it now. They made it such a fun party and the dancefloor was jam-packed whilst they were playing. The band were so much fun and are a fantastic group of talented musicians, they honestly made the whole day!!"

"“The Ambrassadors brought huge energy to our wedding and had the party pumping and filled the dancefloor through both of their sets. Their music choice was excellent and the whole band was so patient with us when we delayed their start by 30mins. A Huge thank you to the Ambrassadors, we love you and would recommend you to all!” "

"Made the day! These gents are the best around. Fantastic guys, brilliant musicians and, most importantly, they bring the party! Huge smiles and a great vibe. We surprised the couple with the band on their way out of the civil ceremony and the whole wedding party was blown away. Thanks, gents! You were heroes!"

"We were so excited to have Big Smoke at our wedding having had to postpone and it was definitely worth the wait. They were fantastic keeping our guests entertained during our drinks reception. This continued in the evening - many guests said they’d never seen so many people on the dance floor at one time! They guys are great and everyone loved them. The communication leading up to the day was great and they were happy to play the songs we really wanted as well as leaving off those we didn’t really like too much. We would highly recommend Big Smoke Brass!"

"We had the Big Smoke Brass come and play at our wedding in Cornwall and I cannot recommend them highly enough! They learnt our first dance song specifically for our wedding and it was amazing to have the band play such a special song to us. We had so many wedding guests come up to us and say how awesome they thought the band were and they definitely got the party started! I would book them again without hesitation! Huge thank you Big Smoke Brass for making our wedding one to remember! :D"

"Harry is a fantastic trumpet player and an asset to any band he is part of. With good reading skills, solid improvisation in solo passages and great energy on stage, I would happily book him again. He can play any genre of music with ease, from pop and rock through to more traditional styles and jazz. Easy to get along with, happy to fit in and a true professional in all aspects of his approach."

"Sometimes it all just falls into place. The setting, the situation, the scene, the tone -- everything is going your way. That describes last night for me. And at the heart of this mid-week Xanadu was the Rick Holland Uptown Orchestra, a modest, brass-centric outfit led by the trumpet-blowing Holland that swung with equal parts effervescence and laid-back cool at Lovin Cup. And come to find out, five of his Hollands regular guys were sidelined, and the holes on the bandstand were plugged with subs --- hired music muscle like Po’ Boy Erik Jacobs on the slide trombone. By the time the Orchestra heaped on a helping of Count Basie, there was nowhere else I wanted to be. I dragged my mom out in the cold for this show and she was thrilled when they stomped on the Savoy. Holland led the affair with a relaxed air, coaxing more than conducting under his porkpie lid. He went around the bandstand numerous times so every cat there got his fair shake, including pianist extraordinaire Bill Dobbins. This is one sweet band, yes, yes. Frank De Blase, Roch City News "

"Main Event Entertainment surpassed my expectations. The saxophone player they provided gave us great live music for my wedding. I will definitely use them again for any of my future events/parties."
