"Matt is an absolute gem of a man and a brilliant musician. My wife Jess and I had the pleasure of having Matt play at our wedding in Lagos five years ago and he certainly got the crowd feeling good. Some great tunes in his repertoire, songs for young and old that’ll have you dancing the night away. Couldn’t recommend this man anymore if you’re looking for some stellar music to accompany any event"

"Maria Ploumi is an exceptional laouto player and singer, seamlessly blending traditional Greek music with contemporary influences. Her recent performance with Chrysoula K. & Púrpura was a masterclass in musicality and emotion. With her expressive laouto playing and warm vocals, Ploumi added depth and texture to a diverse repertoire spanning Greece, Argentina, Portugal, Armenia, and Italy. The band’s unique instrumentation—kanun, flute, cello, and laouto—created a rich, immersive soundscape, with Ploumi’s precision and artistry standing out as a highlight. Her synergy with lead singer Chrysoula Kechagioglou and the rest of the ensemble was remarkable, delivering a performance that was both technically impressive and deeply moving. Maria Ploumi’s ability to bridge musical traditions makes her a standout artist in today’s world music scene. Whether leading with her laouto or harmonizing in song, she brings an authenticity and passion that captivates audiences."

"These girls were an absolute dream to work with. From initial communication via email regarding iterniary and pricing to letting us choose the music theme and their outfits for the day. Absolutely incredible service. They are based in Athens but came over to Agreco Farms in Crete for our wedding day. Our guests did not stop commenting on how wonderful they were during cocktail hour. Beyond talented. Could not have wished for better. It made our day even more magical ✨️ Thanks from the bottom of our hearts, Catherine & Steven."

"If you are thinking of having a singer at your wedding or event you need Megan! She sang all day at our wedding (February 2022) and completely transformed the day. She added so much emotion with her incredible voice! So many of our guests commented on how beautifully she sang each part of our day. She was available whenever we needed leading up to the wedding, meeting us at our venue and planning each part of our day to perfection. Nothing was too much trouble and she honestly bent over backwards to accommodate us, especially after having to change our original date 3 times! We cannot thank you enough Megan xx"

"Before our mother passed, her wish was to have a bagpiper play Amazing Grace. Johnny did so much more! As we arrived at the cemetery, he was playing hymns at a little distance. As the pallbearers brought the casket to the graveside, he played her favorite Amazing Grace, and following the dedication of the grave, he played Going Home. Johnny explained to me earlier about the Celtic belief that the soul would stay with the body until after the service, the soul would be led away by the bagpiper to Go home. It was all beautiful and respectful abd would have made my mother very happy. The family was very pleased. My husband (who has no Scottish Ancestors) said afterward that he would like a bagpiper for his burial! Thank you so much for helping to make a difficult day an uplifting experience."

"We’re so glad we chose Bijou Trio for our wedding! They brought such a beautiful energy to the day and were incredibly easy to work with from start to finish. The music was absolutely top-tier - very clean and elegant and absolutely charming and professional. Everything surrounding their performance was seamless: clear communication, perfect timing, and a truly polished experience. We loved having them and couldn’t recommend the trio more highly for any special occasion!"

"Choosing a pianist in Siena for our wedding was very important to us, as we wanted something that would make the day feel truly special. This service exceeded all expectations and played a key role in creating the atmosphere we had imagined. From the beginning, he showed great professionalism and attention to detail. As an experienced pianist for weddings in Siena, he guided us through the process of selecting the right music for each moment, from the ceremony to the reception. The ceremony was incredibly emotional, and the piano music added depth and elegance to every part of it. It never felt overdone—just perfectly balanced and beautifully performed. During the reception, the music helped maintain a refined and relaxed atmosphere. The repertoire was varied and tasteful, appealing to guests of all ages. Many people came to us to say how much they enjoyed having a live pianist. What impressed us the most was the ability to adapt in real time. He seemed to understand the mood of the room and adjusted the music accordingly, which made everything feel natural and effortless. If you are looking for a pianist for events in Siena or a wedding pianist in Siena, we highly recommend this service. It truly makes a difference."
