Bobby Mc and The Dukes
"Bobby Mc and The Jukes were absolutely fantastic"
Matildejoy
"WOW! What an incredible talent Matilde is! She performed for our wedding ceremony and drinks reception and did so with distinction. Not only did she learn new pieces especially for us, but she also handled the venue’s paperwork at short notice. From start to finish, Matilde was an absolute joy to work with—professional, friendly, and always with a smile. Her singing and playing were beautiful, perfectly capturing the atmosphere of each moment. We cannot recommend Matilde enough. Thank you, Matilde, for your wonderful contribution to our special day!"

La Dolce Vita Swing Collective
"Not knowing what to expect I was ready for anything on a warm September night in Edinburgh.
This was a Sunday night too and the setting was complete in the nightclub atmosphere that is the Dirty Martini lounge.
This band can swing, bass and drums groove sweetly while sax and piano trade solos making this a full sound like there are more on stage. Tony Delicata on vocals blends his Italian roots with Volare, On An Evening In Roma and O Solo Mio as we were escorted to warm Italy with cool sounds and cocktails to suit.
The second half opened with I Wish I Knew, an instrumental from the days when Cinema was a TV series before Tony returned with more signature arrangements. By now the audience were itching to dance and with peaks like Mack The Knife and (Theme From) New York New York they were at one with the band. The closing title song was a creative masterstroke and a deserved ovation followed."
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."
