Review Centre: 1940s Era Musicians & Bands

"Eugene Mann's talent eminates through every note he plays. His music brings joy, comfort, and delight. He's bound by no particular genre - jazz, contemporary, classics, gospel, oldies and more. If you ever get a chance to book him, or be in an audience where he's playing, prepare to be a part of an unforgettable experience. - Rodger M"

"I have booked a lot of musicians for events over the years and Scott is up with the best of them. Communication was easy, his approach was very helpful and the music he played was perfect to add a degree of class to our event. I will hopefully be able to employ him at our next party. Thanks, Amanda."

"Who ever says 'they don't write 'em like they used to' should take a listen to Pugsley Buzzard's latest album Wooden Kimono. Buzzard is a bewitching songwriter and storyteller often combining groove laden or playful tunes with dark lyrics. Showing off his renowned blues - jazz piano style and infectious raspy vocals, Pugsley is complemented on this album by a top band of horns and down and dirty guitar, that makes for hot listening. ".

"Just wanted to write a quick note to let you know how much we enjoyed the band at our wedding at White's Chapel. You were a wonderful Master of Ceremonies, and we've had so many kind words from our guests telling us how much they enjoyed the music. Thank you so much for being part of our big day!"

"Very satisfied Recently, I held an evaluation of the day and preparations with the other party. It emerged that we were very satisfied with your performance. In my opinion, there is nothing that could have been done differently or better. I also appreciated the quick and clear communication. I received rapid email responses, and you would follow up with a call immediately. Even though I was a bit late, everything was still possible. You also considered my budget, showing flexibility in that regard. On the day itself, I appreciated that you arrived early and played until the end. The music was excellent and perfectly matched the atmosphere. I experienced the collaboration as very positive and will think of you whenever we need a jazz combo. "

"Exceptional Performance by Simon, Vincent, and Kars We had the pleasure of experiencing a truly remarkable jazz performance by Simon and Vincent on Thursday, 29 June, with Kars providing excellent coordination. The interplay between the guitar and saxophone created a unique and sophisticated atmosphere that all our guests thoroughly enjoyed. Their professionalism was evident in every aspect of their performance. The duo was friendly and approachable, creating a welcoming environment that enhanced the overall appeal of the event. Their flexibility and willingness to accommodate our specific requests—particularly performing while moving between locations—was a standout feature. This added a dynamic element to their performance and contributed to the seamless flow of the event. We are especially grateful to Kars, the organizer. His meticulous attention to detail and dedication ensured the performance ran smoothly, exceeding all our expectations."

"Stellar, professional, & swingin!!! We booked this trio for one of our larger institutional events that we host twice a semester. They were phenomenal! I cannot sing their praises enough. They added just enough ambience, swing, and mood to the dinner setting for our guests. We will definitely be booking the Simon Burke Trio again and again!"
