"Babis played on our Germany/greek wedding on 31.08.2024 and everything was amazing. He played at our ceremony and at the dinner and the guests enjoyed it a lot. Babis is doing a very good job and is professional. I can recommend him 100% for events. Thank you Babis once more for being with us on such a great day. Theo and Linda"

"Booked Bella Cover Duo for my birthday celebration and they really made the night special. Great energy, great music, and super easy to work with. Bella has an incredible voice — everyone was impressed — and the mix of classic and newer songs they played hit just the right tone for the evening. The 12-string guitar gave everything a rich sound, and the tambourine added a fun rhythm that got people moving. They were professional, showed up early to set up, and handled everything smoothly. Several of my friends already asked for their contact info for future events. Definitely recommend them if you want something elegant but also warm and full of personality."

"Jayne has, by some distance, one of the country's best pop and folk voices. Her soaring pitch-perfect vocals bring great songs to life and send a shiver down the spine. "

"There’s more to Johnny Ticktin than meets the eye. Well-versed in the blues, having once served as lead guitar player for the legendary Louisiana Red, the open-minded Ticktin is a sponge, soaking up the subtle six-string nuances and intricacies of a multitude of genres—from surf to classic R&B, swing and even Mambo—on his eighth album with The Headhunters, That’s All I Need. It would feel right at home in any rough-and-tumble roadhouse. The title is borrowed from a song, covered here in all its dark, swampy glory, off Magic Sam’s 1967 iconic electric blues marvel West Side Soul. Watery, backwoods ripples of Sam’s tremolo guitar style and seductive rhythms meander through Creedence Clearwater Revival’s mysterious kudzu on Johnny & The Headhunters’ version, as Ticktin and company paddle up a lazy river of Bayou groove. Just as fluent in nasty rockabilly, they thrive in the sweltering heat of the 1957 obscurity “Chicken House,” giving it a warm buzz and making it rumble and swagger, while the lascivious, infectious funk of “Body and Fender” – a Doc Pomus/Duke Robillard joint originally built for soul crooner Johnny Adams – shakes all over and ogles the female form. A rousing, boogie-woogie version of Lowell Fulsom’s Chess Records’ hit “Rock ‘Em Dead” is wonderfully shambolic, and Ticktin rides the lightning of the Link Wray instrumental “Ace of Spaces” like a champ, gleefully wheeling through edgy garage-rock riffs with appropriate vim and vigor. What feel he and his band have for this material. There is not the slightest bit of indifference to it anywhere on this record. Not that they need it, but help arrives in the form of keyboardist Tam Sullivan, who wraps smoky, sensual organ and wraiths of piano around a soulful remake of Bobby “Blue” Bland’s “Lead Me On,” and singer Liz Springer, who joins her brazen vocals to Ticktin’s in the cheeky, but charming, duet “Watch and Chain.” And, with the solid machinery of a good backing band at work behind him, Ticktin can just let loose – witness the slide-guitar fury of their cover of Elmore James’ “Shake Your Money Maker.” For aficionados of tasteful guitar work and music that time shouldn’t have forgotten, this is what you need. —Peter Lindblad SPREAD THE NEWS!

"The Strip Lights were the perfect band for our 10th wedding anniversary celebration! Their outstanding musical talent, and seamless blend of genres kept everyone entertained, from children to grandparents alike. The sound quality and production were top-notch, making it a memorable experience for all. We highly recommend them for any special occasion! Special shout out to Ivan who was brilliant to deal with through all stages of the process, from initial booking through to the evening itself. Thank you!"
