"We loved Raphael and Blue Moon Jazz Trio! We had our wedding in Florence, Italy in Sept 2021 and they were soo wonderful! Raphael was so patient with us trying to select our songs and super accommodating. It took a while for us to decide and they very understanding. They were on-time and reliable. Everything went soo smoothly. We decided to include the sax during dinner and it made it so much more lively during the reception. They were so kind and sweet, and would highly recommend!"

"My dad's last wishes were for his wake to be a happy party with a Dixieland Jazz Band. He certainly got his wish. LA Jazz played exactly what my dad would have loved, and people were dancing and remembering fondly how dad used to dance to such music. Alan, the leader, was easy to deal with, well organised and sociable. Thank you for making the eake more like a wedding! (10 / 10) "

"I’m Joe Rico. Host of Jay-Dees Jam Nite in Alhambra; 11 years running pro jam night. I have been running what many studio and touring cats call “ one of the best kept secrets in the San Gabriel Valley/Los Angeles—- our open and pro jam nights... there is so much talent out there and they are fired up to play and listen to awesome, eclectic mixes of LIVE music. Among the best parts is having someone exceptional walk in, someone whose virtuosity triggers the “oomph!” That’d be Dougie—Doug Earley. Give him a wink or a nod in the middle of the song and when he steps up, dessert is served! Candlelight jazz, spunk, funk, fusion, power—From Thelonius Monk to the sweetest of Motown and the pop energy of LAs wrecking crew... Sign him up! Carry-on children, Joe Rico, former news reporter KNBC News/ Los Angeles."

"We booked the Blue Moon Italian Jazz Band for our wedding in June 2024 on Lake Como. To make a long story short: The band is very professional and the music was simply fantastic. We and our guests really enjoyed it. In particular, we would like to mention that the preparation together with the pianist Raphael was very pleasant and absolutely exemplary. We had various special requests and Raphael spared no effort to test them in advance and let us know the result. We can recommend the band with a clear conscience and wish them all the very best on their musical journey! "

"“Absolutely perfect! Without drawing attention, you made the evening. Kars and his team provided the music during a large corporate dinner we hosted for our clients. Their presence is never in the foreground, yet it sets a major part of the atmosphere. Thank you, and looking forward to the next collaboration!”"

"Stefano and the band was really amazing! All of our guests enjoyed the music everyone was dancing and they really accommodated with all the requests we had! The whole band is just so good, very talented musicians. They played songs even for our ceremony and it was just a dream come true. We can’t thank them enough to help make our day perfect. I would definitely recommend them! Ana & Paulo"

"We cannot say how much we appreciate and enjoyed having both Alfie and Valentina at our wedding on the 19/08/23. At Il Casale Denari. The music choices were arranged in advance without any issue and on the day they pulled it off seamlessly!!! Arrghhh it was the best day ever and having live music at the crucial points of the day made it all the more perfect. They were brilliant"

"Amazing! Rick Holland Productions worked seamlessly with our wedding, where we had three separate "performances" that were adpated to by Rick's use of different members of the Little Big Band. We had a cocktail reception where a trio played, then a brass quartet accompanied our Wedding ceremony. After our guests were transported by horse-drawn carriage to a lake side reception site, the Little Little Big Band got things started and the full Little Big Band played the night away to the extreme pleasure of our entire party. They even let Joe Robinson jam with them in the chill of the autumn, fire-lit evening! Thank You so much Rick! Matthew Cooper, Bradford, PA"

"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."

"As Director of Wheathill Music, I've booked Marcella for many events over the years, including weddings, Christmas parties, corporate launches and special occasions at London's five star hotels and restaurants. She's a delight to work with, and feedback is always highly complimentary. A formidable artist with a wonderful voice and fabulous style. Marcella's a perfectionist who genuinely puts her heart and soul into every event. It's amazing to have a multi-instrumentalist singer who is also a top notch DJ. She's the complete entertainment package! "
