Review Centre: 1940s Era Musicians & Bands

"Super nice band!!! We hired the full 5-piece and it was the best decision! Between the double bass, guitar, drums, and trumpet (along with Nadya's awesome voice) we had the best time. The band was dressed super nicely, and they were really nice to work with. They even brought their own sound system which made it so much easier! Would definitely recommend for any corporate/private event or wedding ! 10/10 "

"Matthew, what can I say about the band. Firstly, everyone at the party has commented on the amazing atmosphere you all created from the moment you stepped onto the stage. I knew that you would be good as obviously I had watched your performances on your site, but what I wasn’t prepared for was the utter joy that your performance would give to everyone who was there including the staff at the hotel! The music choices were perfect, the vocals and commentary perfect and the feeling that I couldn’t have booked anyone better a delight. I know my father really enjoyed his night and has sung your praises far and wide. You all made the night truly fabulous and I cannot thank you enough for it. I hope to book you all again for future functions and obviously will let everyone know just how incredible your band is. Once again please give my thanks to the whole band, they were absolutely amazing."

"Performing aboard paddle steamer Waverley is always a challenging experience and requires artists of great skill and initiative to grapple with the small performance space and access limitations. The Bel Canto Vintage Sisters proved perfect for our 1940's themed cruises, entertaining our passengers with a great range of wartime and big band standards, with frequent changes of costumes and great audience interaction. A delightful trio of ladies who were more than happy to change set lists and performance times throughout the day according to the needs of the ship. Their day with us ended in passengers dancing and joining in a full throated sing- a - long to much acclaim. One of the most entertaining and versatile groups I have used in 40 years of running cruises, we have received strong positive feedback from our passengers, and will be booking Angie and her trio again in 2025 for another 40s themed cruises. I recommend this group for any occasion, cruise or function. You will not be disappointed!. Tim Wardley. Waverley Excursions Thames Liaison Officer."

"Lucienne brings joy and happiness to any occasion. She sings a variety of songs perfectly, and is beautifully accompanied by top class musicians. I've very much enjoyed Lucienne's events in several bars, restaurants and most recently at Salts Mill, Saltaire. Very professional. Highly recommended. "

"Annelise was perfect in every way. Prompt, communicative and responsive. Everyone at the party loved her and commented on her style. This was important to us as we were catering for all ages and tastes. She sang beautifully. I would definitely recommend and book again. Just wonderful."

"Noa and her group performed in All Saints Church for the May Merrie festival. Dozens of people who had come in for refreshments or as customers for the craft fair stood or sat in amazement for around an hour as they listened to classic jazz numbers beautifully sung to a great accompanying group.They couldn't get enough. Go a long way to listen to these great musicians."

"What a surprise! This band and musicians were unknown to me, but they are absolutely great! For listeners to hear musicians challenge themselves, and be taken along for the ride, records like this are a must! The musicians in the Rick Holland-Evan Dobbins Little Big Band are all reaching the high musical standards realized by playing in this excellent Little Big Band! This music will be featured in my playlists for many months to come. Thank you again for sending this exceptional cd to me. Peter Kuller, Jazz Presenter, Radio 101.5 FM Adelaide, Australia"

"We just want to say a huge thank you to you and your band. You were absolutely amazing and we couldn’t believe the amount of people who were up dancing. Your entrance music was the best and got everyone in the mood to dance. The first dance was magical. Everybody loved the sets. We had had an amazing day with Andy Carroll starting the entertainment off and then Mr Swing’s Dance Orchestra was the icing on top of the cake. Thank you so much again."
