Review Centre: Swing Bands

"I immediately understood from the first contact that I was dealing with professionals, who know exactly how to handle an important and highly symbolic event like one's wedding, capable of always keeping the spotlight on the bride and groom without ever being intrusive or out of place, but rather accompanying us discreetly (but not without "personality") through all the stages of the evening. Being a musician myself, I had very high expectations about the matter, but the feedback received from the band was absolutely respectful of the tastes and the general idea that my partner and I had, and indeed there were, thanks to their experience, details that turned out to be more than spot-on, because they were always done at the right moment and in the most congenial manner to the situation. Well done guys, a big hug from Francesco Cardillo and Laura – Francesco Cardillo and Laura, 14 September 2023, Wedding in Bari, Italy"

Please pass on our thanks and congratulations to your band with our best wishes for another successful night and for a good Christmas and new year. You have some new fans and we’re looking forward to next year's extravaganza!"

"There hasn’t been a lot of great song options for wedding music. It’s always either lacking or overused. Sofia put together such a great song list for us. We had a video prepared last minute and Sofia chooses the perfect songs to go with it. It was such a beautiful moment for us when they go live. We got so many compliments from guests."

"We chose "Matrimonio di Note" after seeing their bravura in another wedding, we varied the proposal which is still very wide and did not disappoint expectations. Marica was always available to advise us in the choices and the music was perfect, she gave a special touch to every important moment of our day. "

"We heard Sarah Jane (a.k.a. Miss Dolores) and her band at Painshill and I hoped that she might agree to perform at my 60th Birthday. The songlist she chose was wonderful as we had canapes and drinks and a great way to start the evening. It honestly made me tearful - it was just magical and a truly elegant start to the party."

"We made the best decision to have Soulmates Collective at our wedding in Poggibonsi. From the start, Francesco was an absolute delight to deal with and provided answers to all our questions. We were a mess prior to the wedding and he took all the stress of music away from us. On the day, Francesco on piano, and Sergio on trumpet, played incredibly. At times they were the centre point of attention, at other times, soft harmony in the background. The music was perfect and I was often captivated by their mastery of music and their chemistry playing together. In addition to this, Francesco and Sergio were just beautiful human beings. We felt like they were part of our family, playing from the heart. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to anyone. You can’t go wrong with Soulmates Collective. "

"Fantastic Show!!! There is absolutely no way to experience anything closer to a live show with Frank Sinatra's voice than with James Anthony. I will certainly hire him again and would recommend anybody else to do the same. I have never seen a more realistic impersonation of any artist. Hats off to you Mr. Anthony!!"

"Cheryl was an absolute joy to work with. I was looking for someone to surprise my husband for his birthday party and she was everything I was hoping for. She really added the extra special element while being very unobtrusive at the same time. I would recommend her highly."

"What an entertaining band last night at the VJC at Clayton RSL. The High Society Jazz Orchestra played a magical mix of Big Band numbers from a number of eras. They not only played well, but looked the part in their dinner suits and lovely dresses. The music kept dancers on the floor all night and the audience looked very happy with the music - even the children were enjoying the night!"

"A beautiful musical evening event organized on my Home’s terrace . All thanks to KĀMA Jazz&Bossa and the vocalist Francesca. Her clear voice delighted us with "good vibrations", accompanying us throughout the evening, with a repertoire of bossa nova and jazz standards, international music and her original songs. We had already the opportunity to listen Francesca and the musicians in some clubs in the city centre, and we really liked their sound, therefore we immediately thought of them to organize our event. KĀMA Jazz&Bossa band also proved to be very professional. We will certainly call KĀMA Jazz&Bossa band back for future events. "
