"We had booked Tikkie Meer, Tikkie Minder as an end-of-year stunner for our care home, and what a great success it was! Our residents enjoyed the show immensely. The fun and enthusiasm were clearly palpable. We look forward to booking again in the future!"

"We had the most amazing wedding day last month and couldn’t have been happier with how it all went, especially our music choices for our big day! Chris Harper was absolutely perfect! Couldn’t imagine it any different than coming from our ceremony straight to a drink in the sunshine with the sound of the guitar and gentle singing to welcome us to the rest of our lives together 🥰 we ran over for time on most things and he stayed on past his time to make sure he could play our first dance for us! Cured the stress and panic of ‘what do we do, we’re so behind!’ And our moment was perfect 💕 one month on and it will live in our memories forever, thank you so much for staying and making our day perfect 🥰 we had sooo many compliments on how great the music was! If you’re looking for a singer or music for any kind of event look him up, absolutely worth every penny! 🎶"

"Damien came with a friend and they performed really well. They have an amazing repertoire of songs and were able to play all the requests that were asked. They were just the right volume so people could listen to them and chat at the same time. They are very pleasant people and it was great value for money."

"From the very beginning, the treatment was friendly, professional, and super close. All the guests were delighted. The ceremony, with their background music, created a unique emotion, and the atmosphere they generated during the cocktail hour was a 10. We are so happy to have chosen them. It was a total success to choose you, Eduard and Martí, you are great professionals and you create magic. Thank you very much for everything. It was spectacular."

"Book him! Raz is exactly as advertised. His guitar playing is exceptional and he is incredibly poised. We would easily book him again. Raz is very quick to respond to communications and always understanding, pleasant, and professional. Book him because he will play wonderful music for your event. Book him because he is a joy to work with and communicate with. Finally, book him because he is fairly priced for his outstanding quality. His guitar playing really added to the ambiance and vibe of our wedding reception."

"We would like to say a huge thanks to Roger for playing during our ceremony and drinks reception at our wedding. The tone and feel was perfect for the occasion, with guests commenting it was one of their highlights of the day. The communication with Roger was prompt and easy and he obliged us to learn an arrangement of a favourite song of ours. We would recommend him to play at any event of our friends and family. Many thanks again."

"Thank you so much for playing at our wedding! We feel so lucky that we found you guys. From the moment we found your website and heard your clips, we had a good feeling about you and we weren't disappointed. The music was fantastic, you are both so talented and Lucy, your voice is just stunning! We had loads of great comments from our guests and Laura and I were particularly impressed with your version of Wings by Birdie which you learnt just for us! Thank you! Best of luck to you both. You deserve it!"

"Swite Duo accompanied us during the ceremony and the cocktail hour. We were clear that we wanted live music at our wedding, but we couldn't find a duet that convinced us. Until we contacted Swite Duo: two professional musicians, violin and guitar, with a lot of taste and musical sensitivity. We could choose from a long repertoire of songs and also choose the ones we wanted. They even dared to improvise to accompany a prose recited by a good friend of ours. We will always remember those moments of happiness when our favorite songs played. We had a beautiful wedding, and Swite Duo's music filled every moment with magic! Thank you Edu and Martí! Thank you for everything!"

"I’ve never seen any other artist play for three and half solid hours without taking a single break. We love Michael, I can’t even put into words and he’s, we look forward to his visit every year and it’s the only band I stop what I am doing and come out and watch. He could play anywhere and fill any venue and here he is and I always say I am so humble he is here. He could play downtown Calgary somewhere in a venue eight times this size and have it packed full."

" Yaz xxx oud player is widely regarded as a very good, highly respected oud player. Here’s why musicians, critics, and venues take him seriously: 🎵 Musical Skill & Reputation • Strong technical command of the oud: His playing shows control, speed, and expressive phrasing, especially in improvisation (taqsim). • Expressive style: Critics often highlight the emotional depth and atmosphere of his playing rather than just flashiness. • Comparisons to top players: He has been compared in reviews to internationally respected oud masters like Anouar Brahem, which is high praise in the oud world. 🌍 Professional Recognition • Major venues & festivals: He has performed at places like Ronnie Scott’s, the Barbican, Royal Festival Hall, WOMAD, and Glastonbury — venues that book only high-level musicians. • Serious collaborations: Playing with artists such as Robert Plant, Natacha Atlas, Cheb Mami, and Transglobal Underground indicates strong peer recognition. • Longevity: He has maintained an active career for decades, which usually only happens when a musician is consistently good and in demand. 🎶 Musical Value • He’s not just a technician — he’s also a composer and bandleader, able to integrate the oud into jazz, blues, and world-music contexts without losing its traditional character. • His work with Fantazia and later ensembles shows versatility across traditional and contemporary styles. Bottom line If you measure “good” by: • technical ability ✅ • musical expression ✅ • professional respect ✅ • sustained career at high-level venues"
