Review Centre: Wedding Bands

"An atmospheric and Christmassy decorated theatre café forms the setting for this year's Yes Jazz Christmas Matinée. It is pleasantly busy. Many music lovers choose the warmth of the Yes Jazz theatre café of De Hofnar on this cold Sunday afternoon. Gipsy jazz is popular and Christmas music always goes down well. When these two come together, you can of course count on a special afternoon. And that is what it will be. The music is beautiful. A beautiful singer and three excellent musicians ensure a beautiful Christmas Matinée. This quartet clearly shows that many different types of music can be cast in the mould of the gipsy style. Django Reinhardt resonates in everything. The tight foundation is audible in Ronald Weel's rhythm guitar and on Daniël Gueli's double bass. You can build on this. The solo guitar and the singer provide the leading parts. Marcia Bamberg stands out because of her clear voice: crystal clear and velvety soft where necessary. The improvisations of the solo guitarist, John Lighart, are smooth and inventive. Sometimes very virtuoso. The repertoire is especially very versatile. From French chansons to well-known jazz standards. Of course, the big Christmas hits are not missing. Night and Day, After you’ve gone, but also Belle Histoire and La vie en rose come in beautiful arrangements from the Yes Jazz stage. Christmas has started well! "

"After a lot of research I came across Fan Club Party Band and was very pleased to find they were also local to us. We booked them for our wedding gave them some examples of the type of instrumental music we wanted and a bit of a brief and they nailed it completely! It was such an incredible day, and they created the perfect vibe and atmosphere which is exactly what we wanted. I would definitely use them again and do plan to in the future. Thanks so much guys!

"We wanted a live music touch, but we wanted it to be very professional We contacted Eva and she reached back immediately and responded thoroughly to every question of ours. She was very helpful! We finalized our playlist exactly how we wanted and on the day of the wedding, everything went smoothly. She was such a blessing! The music was perfect and her whole appearance groundbreaking! Anyone who wants an outstanding violin show must book her immediately! "

"Phil performed a fantastic accoustic set for our wedding last week. Many of our guests commented on how great the music was. Phil played chilled out versions of a mixture of current and all time classic songs, which were the perfect background to our champagne and canape reception. Phil is very easy to liaise with and flexible to specific requests, learning 3 new songs that we specifically wanted. He also performed a great upbeat set at the start of our evening reception with a couple of friends as a 3 piece which kept everyone on the dancefloor for the full hour! Couldnt recommend highly enough. Thanks Phil! Michael & Lucy"

"Barry – we mean Tony B – looked, sang, talked, moved and played guitar exactly like his alter ego. Tony has been Barry Gibb from the beginning of his calling 15 years ago. The portrayal of Maurice & Robin were every bit as convincing as Barry in their looks, trademark dry humour, dress, posture, mannerisms, movement and, of course, that unique, compelling sound. Imitation really was the sincerest form of flattery. Marhaba Desk, Author at Marhaba, Qatar's premier information guide"

"These guys were just amazing. From their attention to detail during the exchange of emails and booking to their energy, friendliness and fab performance at the party, I would happily book them again and again and again. Nothing was too much for them - my Mum loved having her own live band and they played such a good range of music that lots of people enjoyed and danced to. Do not hesitate in booking them- great value for money, friendly and polite guys, amazing talent. You will not be disappointed."

" Thanks so much to you, John and Chris for the fantastic music and calling on Saturday. Even though the set was rather compressed by our over running speeches (sorry about that!) I know everyone had a brilliant time and really enjoyed it. I know you stayed rather later than you had planned and we really appreciate your flexibility. Thank again for a brilliant evening. You were really wonderful. And we loved hearing Bonnie Kate! Ruth & Richard x"
