John Connolly, Crooner
"What a fantastic night with John Connolly. Our Wedding Anniversary Party couldn't have been better. John has a wonderful voice and sang for 2 hours all the Crooner classics with some surprises thrown in too. Superb, thanks again John....Dave & Barbara."

Lewis & Her Swing Band
"The Lewis Barfoot Jazz Quintet delivers amazing performances. The ensemble demonstrated a deep understanding of both the jazz and swing tradition and the soul of live interpretation, balancing technical precision with an inviting sense of spontaneity.
Lewis's leadership was evident throughout, with singing that was confident yet understated, allowing space for all the musician voices to shine.There was an unmistakable sense of enjoyment and mutual respect on stage, which translated directly to the audience. Dynamic contrasts were handled with care, and solos were expressive without ever feeling self-indulgent.
Particularly impressive was their attention to providing music that truly worked for dancers. Tempos, dynamics, and phrasing were handled with care, ensuring the music was not only enjoyable to listen to but also perfectly suited to the dance floor. Beyond the performance itself, the professional approach stood out throughout the entire process. Communication was clear and reliable from the initial booking through to the end of the event, making the experience smooth and stress-free.
Overall, the Lewis Barfoot Jazz Quintet combined high-quality musicianship with professionalism and thoughtful consideration for their audience, resulting in a thoroughly successful event."

Almaz & All That Jazz
"We booked Almaz for a Charity event held at The Virgin Money Lounge in Manchester. They were extremely professional, arriving on time to set up and tune up. Their set created the perfect atmosphere for the day. They are both exceptionally talented and do a lovely repertoire of both originals and covers. I couldn't rate them any higher or I would have. Thanks again for all your support!"
Trumpet for events
"Many people came up to me after the service saying how genuinely touched they were by your performance. My Uncle and my Dad were sat behind me during the service and you literally reduced them both to tears. I have never seen either of them cry before. It was extremely moving, your performance was beautiful and perfect. Rob would have absolutley loved it. Thank you much for performing for us and for your professionalism and sympathy. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone"
