Reviews of 1940s Era Musicians & Bands available in Ribe, South Denmark, Denmark

5/5 from 693 reviews
Photo of The Boogiemen The Boogiemen "We loved the band and our guests were very impressed by the music. I can definitely recommend them to anyone looking for music for their next party." Translated from German Based in Hamburg, Germany (131 miles from Ribe) Verena Herbst - Privat Party Photo of Marcia Bamberg Swing Quartet Marcia Bamberg Swing Quartet "It was truly a great concert in the Koepel in Heiloo: the Marcia Bamberg Swing Quartet supplemented by two virtuoso musicians: Tim Kliphuis on violin and Mozes Rosenberg on guitar. The band's permanent lead guitarist, John Ligthart, is also a great talent. Daniel Gueli as bassist gives sparkling solid energy to the whole, nothing is too much for him! Ronald Weel is the reliable rhythm guitarist that a band cannot do without and Marcia Bamberg can really sing! What a fine voice and every note is right. She knows what she's doing and the band as a whole brings a nice atmosphere and surprising moments. It was a concert where you don't start thinking about other things for a moment. Perfect!" Based in Obdam, North Holland, Netherlands (241 miles from Ribe) Irene - Concert Photo of Gradalicious Gradalicious "Very good, our guests are happy with the music and the performance. The atmosphere was very fantastic!" Based in Bussum, North Holland, Netherlands (257 miles from Ribe) 9th October 2025 Yuting Cheng - KTS International Exhibition Consulting UG Photo of Bertram & Kadi DUO Bertram & Kadi DUO "Bertram & Kadi truly tied our tranquil cottage wedding together. Their music created exactly the atmosphere we had hoped for - sweet, playful, and effortlessly elegant. We loved working with them beforehand to put together a setlist of our favourite jazz standards, and they even learned a song without sheet music online so we could listen to our special song on our special day. We couldn't have asked for a more wonderful duo." Based in Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands (258 miles from Ribe) 13th June 2026 Hebo - Private wedding Photo of Bijou Trio Bijou Trio "I was searching for a jazz band for a luxury event I planned in Amsterdam and came across Bijou Trio, what an incredible find! Out of all the entertainment companies I contacted, they were the first to respond (within hours!), and their pricing was by far the most competitive. When the event day came, they exceeded every expectation. Impeccably presented, charming, and professional, these 3 young men brought the atmosphere and true artistry to the event. Their performance was elegant, polished, and musically outstanding. I later found out they are formally trained musicians with a university background in music and it shows. Highly recommended for anyone looking for world-class jazz with genuine soul and sophistication." Based in Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands (258 miles from Ribe) Nadia Duran - Nadia Duran Events - Sydney Australia Photo of Dupa Trio - Retro Jazz Band Dupa Trio - Retro Jazz Band "we invited Dupa Trio for our annual celebration of the Gememnta Amsterdam, WOW, what a cool band! a super unique approach to the boring and run-over-the-mile jazz band, they have so much character and their singer is amazing! if you can see them play or even book their performance, do it! such a cool band" Based in Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands (258 miles from Ribe) Kitty - Gemente amsterdam
