"Pauline and The Imaginary Friends played on stage at our Teddington Christmas Lights Up event and were fantastic. I booked them very last minute as the event was initially cancelled due to lack of funds which were then raised by local residents. They were exceptionally professional and did the perfect set to entertain people of all ages. The combination of Pauline’s fabulous voice and the music accompaniment from Gareth and Matt is the perfect recipe for any event. We loved their energy and how they got the crowd dancing. "

Goes out of her way to interact with guests and has been flexible by her song collection reading the crowd and their needs well . "

"What a night! I booked Noa as a surprise for my partner’s birthday. The organisation was easy, the event was amazing and everything was seamless. Noa is an incredibly talented singer and the backing musicians that joined Noa were amazing and all joined in the spirit of the party. I will definitely book Noa again and would recommend her without reservation."

"New Orleans is a state-of-mind. Every year around this time of year, Mardi Gras is an explosion of joyousness. You don't have to travel down to Louisiana to feel it. Its spirit resides in Mercer County in a little town called Ewing, where Joe Grillo leads The Gumbo Gumbas on a Cajun holiday all year round. The jump-blues, zydeco, rocl'n'roll, jazz, folk strains and oh such soul are on full display wherever they play. Now you can even share that feeling, that zest for life, that passionate embodiment of the groove, in your own home. Zydeland has to be the feel-good album of the year so far. Written, arranged, produced, sung and honked on his tenor sax, Grillo imbues Zydeland with a Bourbon Street beat. He's an honorary French Quarter denizen of the night. Of course, there's always time to invoke a little Tom Waits on highlight "Can't Go Back to New Orleans" The colors mix and mingle with tuba, banjo, guitar, violin, viola, cello, trombone, accordion, piano, bass, clarinet, soprano sax, trumpet and that penetration percolation percussion. Excuse me, I got to get on up and do the boogaloo. You just can't set still for this thing."

"Renato is a superlative saxophonist with a passionate and poetic soul. He has all the virtues - a beautiful sense of time and pacing and a technique which effortlessly projects his brilliantly flowing ideas."

"First of all, I want to say a huge thank you to the most down-to-earth team ever! My fiancé used this service for our engagement, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Kevin played the violin so beautifully — my fiancé asked him to perform a Bollywood classic, “Tum Hi Ho,” which he had never played before, but he absolutely smashed it! 🎻 Nadiia is an incredible photographer and a true perfectionist. She captured the proposal so beautifully and even took some raw footage so we could relive the moment before the full photoshoot came through. The photos are amazing — she took her time, never rushed, and made sure every shot was perfect. Together, they make an amazing team and are such a pleasure to be around. Both Kevin and Nadiia are such kind, genuine people who made everything feel so natural and easy. My fiancé proposed while we were on holiday and hadn’t met them beforehand, but they made him feel completely at ease. He said they were the only people he spoke to during planning who had a personal touch and truly listened to what he wanted — helping him create the most perfect proposal. They even surprised us with cupcakes afterwards! "

"Sue and I cannot praise you and your wonderful swing band enough. We have organised many prestigious balls and dinner dances over the years and we have hired some of the finest dance bands in the country but we can truly say that Mr Swing’s Dance Orchestra is the best we have ever used. It was absolutely magical, thank you. We are so so overwhelmed with gratitude to you for the evening because you absolutely made it. We would recommend you to anyone in the World; we already have a few people in mind. Comments from the guests included “The best band I have ever heard” and “What a fabulous band!” Not only were the musicians excellent but more importantly they all enjoyed playing which made for a wonderfully warm and welcoming atmosphere. It was a pleasure meeting you Matthew and a privilege to listen to your wonderful band which helped to make the evening very special indeed."

Dear Jordan and Juli, it was a real pleasure to enrich the ceremony, the cocktail reception, and part of the dinner with our music. You were fantastic, and being with you felt like being at home.
