"Thank you for singing so brilliantly at our wedding. All the guests can't stop commenting on how fantastic your voice is and how you really made the evening. Thanks also for DJing, you immediately knew the right songs to play and didn't talk like a lot of DJ's do. We really did have a perfect day.”"

"Scarlett played at our small wedding ceremony last week at very short notice - only a few days! She even learnt a special request of ours, which is exceptional given the timescales. Despite it being a small, intimate ceremony, Scarlett helped make it extremely special - her musicianship was outstanding and it was the perfect fit for a Covid wedding! Highly recommended, thanks Scarlett :-)"

"Huffington post Review by Randy Radic From the Land Down Under, where “women glow and men thunder,” comes Ivan Beecroft, who has a new single out, called “Believe.” It’s the first release from his forthcoming album. “Believe” is a song about the complexities of human relationships. Ivan’s music and lyrics are inspired by his time as a steelworker, a vocation that opened his eyes and his conscience to what was going on around him. Turning to music was his way of coping with the inequities of life. Stylistically, Ivan writes and sings retro rock from the 1990s, with heavy influences from grunge pop music. And if you listen closely to “Believe,” you can hear just a hint of Pearl Jam in the tune. The way Ivan phrases smacks of Eddie Vedder, as does the melody. Still, the resemblances are nuanced and not overt or obvious. That being said, the song also reminds, because of the piano, of Billy Joel. It should be noted that Ivan plays all the instruments on the song: drums, bass, guitars, piano and the synth. In addition, he produced, mixed and mastered the song. In other words, Ivan is multi-talented and definitely has an ear for what works and what doesn’t. “Believe” begins with a snappy drum beat, then the piano jumps in and the melody is set. The melody is strong and rides on the wave provided by the piano; the drums carry the beat well, emphasizing the snare which pops with gusto. "

"Highlight of our Event Coal #9 was the highlight of our backyard party. From the initial booking onward working with the band was effortless. Communication was excellent throughout. The band had to adjust their setup for our backyard but adjusted on the fly and without any loss in performance or complaint. Our guests raved at the quality of their performance. Band members were friendly and warm and their presence added to the evenings ambiance. We are so thankful that we go Coal #9 to perform at our event and highly recommend you consider them for your event.

"This was the second company event I organized with live music from Jazz Centrale, and once again they exceeded expectations. Both performances featured exceptional musicians and singers, and the entire process was smooth and professional. I highly recommend them for both the quality of the music and the excellent organization."

"I had the pleasure of hiring this pianist for a private event in Rome, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Finding a professional musician who can combine technical mastery with emotional sensitivity is not easy, but in this case, everything exceeded expectations. From the very first contact, communication was clear, polite, and highly professional. Every detail of the event was carefully discussed, including the type of repertoire, the timing, and the atmosphere we wanted to create. During the event, the performance was simply outstanding. The pianist demonstrated an extraordinary ability to adapt to the environment, providing elegant background music during the reception and more engaging pieces at key moments of the evening. The repertoire was incredibly refined, ranging from classical compositions to more contemporary arrangements, all performed with remarkable precision and expression. One of the aspects that impressed me the most was the sensitivity in reading the room. The music never felt intrusive, yet it was always present in a way that enhanced the overall experience. Many of our guests commented on how much they appreciated the live music, noting that it gave the event a unique and sophisticated character. Punctuality, professionalism, and passion for music were evident throughout the entire collaboration. Everything was handled seamlessly, allowing us to focus on enjoying the evening without any concerns. I would highly recommend this pianist to anyone looking for high-quality live music in Rome, whether for a private event, a wedding, or a corporate occasion."

" Keith was our piper at our wedding at the end of April. What an absolute legend. The day was excellent and Keith played brilliantly. Such a nice guy too, chatting beforehand to keep me calm, interacting with guests, always game for a photo. The day would definitely not have been as special had Keith not been there, I'll definitely be recommending and booking Keith again in the future. Thanks Keith, you really helped make our day as special as it was. "
