"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."

"“The right sound at our corporate event What a pleasure it was to have the musicians from Jazz Centrale at one of our corporate events. Short lines of communication and the right musical choices for each moment of the event. Perfect as background music, yet still present and noticeable to everyone. Thank you.”"

"Hiring the BeerMats was probably the best decision we made in planning our wedding. Our guests were thoroughly entertained, the music was perfect, and the lads were an absolute pleasure to work with. I would give them an 11/10 rating if I could."

"Absolutely the best!! All the guests at the reception commented on the band. I asked them to add a horn section, so we had an eight piece band and their soundman. The soundman went the extra mile and provided sound for the outdoor wedding ceremony also, and during the cocktail hour, some of the band members provided an acoustical set before the reception officially began. My daughter wanted a lot of the Sinatra sound and they delivered. She and her father danced to Sinatra's "Fly Me To The Moon" (George is a corporate pilot) and I will never forget the sight they made as they danced. A memory to hold forever in my heart and the memory definitely has the sound!! You can not go wrong with this band, whatever sound you want. And I think that they actually gave me more than I paid for. Truly marvelous and professional musicians!! My daughter's "do not play" list was basically "nothing cheesy". They were perfect and worth every penny."

"The band is unique combination of Irish teas, Indie n Latin fusion. It suited our crowd at my husbands 40th birthday as we had mixed nationalities and help bring us together, they had to do several encours as no one wanted the band to leave. Would recommend them"

"I had the pleasure of witnessing Gaston the Violinist's extraordinary performance at Jumeirah Hotel Beach during Ramadan, and I must say, he was absolutely amazing. From the moment he started playing, his talent and passion for music shone through, captivating everyone in the audience. Gaston's command over the violin was truly remarkable. His skillful and emotive playing transported us to another world, where the melodies he created resonated deep within our hearts. His ability to infuse English, French, and Arabic songs with such elegance and finesse was a testament to his versatility as an artist. Not only was Gaston's musicality impressive, but his stage presence was also captivating. He exuded a genuine warmth and charm, effortlessly connecting with the audience and making us feel like we were part of something special. His engaging personality and genuine love for music were infectious, creating an atmosphere filled with joy and appreciation. The choice of Jumeirah Hotel Beach as the venue only added to the overall experience. The combination of Gaston's melodic tunes and the serene seaside setting created a magical ambiance, perfectly complementing the spirit of Ramadan. Gaston's performance during Ramadan at Jumeirah Hotel Beach was a true highlight of the season. His exceptional talent, coupled with his ability to seamlessly blend English, French, and Arabic songs, made for an unforgettable evening of musical bliss. I highly recommend experiencing Gaston's artistry firsthand and look forward to his future performances, as he truly has a gift for touching the souls of his audience with his violin."
