"It was a great delight having Rory play for us last night. A pleasure to listen to and a very talented young man. If I have any needs going forward I will definitely ask for him. Very best wishes, Tim."

"Last summer, we were delighted with the performance of saxophonist / clarinettist Rory and pianist exploring the music of George Gershwin. This summer, Rory enchanted the audience with his fusion of acoustic Latin with Brazilian music, jazz and soul and the arrangements were tastefully orchestrated with guitar and percussion. It made for an engaging performance. We hope to have him back again soon!"

"From my perspective, Rory was polite, professional and played very well. He was excellent at communicating where he was, and was very conscientious to be placed somewhere suitable for the guests. Rory specifically wanted to ensure that when Anam and Alex were announced in to the evening reception, their arrival was accompanied by the correct song. Personally I would have now hesitation in recommending him for future bookings."

"We had the please of having Mikro play at our boat party with about 50 guests. He was absolutely fantastic and everyone couldn't stop talking about how great his performance was. Shortly after the booking process he got in touch with me to know more about what kind of music and event i was imagining. He stayed always in touch, talked to our DJ to make sure their music styles mesh and was professional all through the evening. I can't recommend Mirko enough for any kind of event! He's a very experienced Sax player and can adapt to any kind of situation and music with ease. Big thank you again to Mirko for making our event so special! Frank"

"Kars and his team provided the music for a large corporate dinner we hosted for our clients. Their presence wasn't in the foreground, yet it set a significant mood. Thanks, and we look forward to working with you again!"

"We had the pleasure of having this wonderful band perform at our wedding reception, and they exceeded all expectations. Their professionalism, talent, and ability to set the perfect mood throughout the evening were outstanding. Our guests kept complimenting the music, which truly made the celebration even more special. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for live music that is both elegant and memorable"

"Marie et son guitariste ont animé le cocktail de notre mariage avec brio. Nos invités et nous-mêmes sommes tombés sous le charme de la voix de Marie parfaitement accompagné. Son répertoire est riche et varié. Elle a su apporter à ce moment de l’élégance, de l’émotion, de la douceur. En résumé un duo exceptionnel."

"We booked Rory for our daughters 21st where he played the piano for a relaxed drinks reception in the house, followed by sax working with the DJ in a much more lively party setting afterwards over at our annexe. Rory blended in perfectly in both settings, with relaxed sets being played on the piano followed by very engaged, immersive sets with the sax on the dance floor with our guests. He really just gets on with his thing and really made the event that extra special and received a ton of compliments from some very happy guests. We would whole heartedly recommend."

"Sara and Pedro were wonderful. They played fantastic music and were super helpful also to allow the client to use their microphone for a short speech. They were pleasant, easy to work with and my clients loved them. They were low key , professional and very talented. I would hire them again in a second. 10 out of 10 ! "

"Rory put on after show performances for Manchester Camerata at the Bridgewater Hall and at the Royal Northern College of Music respectively. I am pleased to say that both performances went successfully; Rory brought a tasteful cosmopolitan selection of Brazilian tunes and acoustic Latin, blending well-known arrangements with original compositions, which created a buzzing vibe and went down very well with our audiences, keeping them at the bar all evening! Great fun and would definitely book for future events."

"Just to say thank you for your excellent playing on Sunday. Everyone enjoyed it. Rorys relaxed, smooth sound was perfect for our garden party and I received many complimentary comments from our guests on his behalf. He is a talented musician and was very professional but also approachable and friendly. I would certainly recommend him."
