Photo of Sunny Side Trio Sunny Side Trio "Fantastic! A trio full of energy, smiling, communicative" Translated from Italian Based in Milan, Lombardy (28 miles from Bergamo) 22nd May 2026 Chiara - Event Photo of Romeo solo Jazz Guitar/duo/trio/Big Band Romeo solo Jazz Guitar/duo/trio/Big Band "A precise and discreet person, he accompanied our evening with friends by playing jazz guitar, including manouche style, in a varied yet impeccable way—never overly virtuosic, never banal. The melodies did not take the center stage, providing the perfect background, just as we had requested. A wonderful evening. Thank you, Romeo!" Based in Milan, Lombardy (28 miles from Bergamo) Athanasia - Evening with friends Photo of Uke Swing Uke Swing "With their swing they brought joy to everyone. With their elegance and delicacy they added magic to our May evening. A passionate and special group. A group of singing hearts and playing hearts. In short, I recommend them with all my heart. Donia" Translated from Italian Based in Genoa, Liguria (96 miles from Bergamo) Donia - Wedding party Photo of Gajè Gipsy Swing Gajè Gipsy Swing "Nothing but compliments for this band! They created such a lively vibe for our welcome party, no request was an issue, even played on in the dark when we had lighting issues.
