Sunny Side Trio "Fantastic! A trio full of energy, smiling, communicative" Translated from Italian Based in Milan, Lombardy (72 miles from Parma) 22nd May 2026 Chiara - Event

Sheldon & the Rollin' Cats "The 50s with that touch of modernity and so much energy! What a sound these guys have! They are truly exciting and engaging.

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 (73 miles from Parma) Donia - Wedding party

Ferdi Argenti "What Ferdie can do that nobody else does (to the extent that he does it) is sing his heart out, and then play his heart out-- his vocal and instrumental expressions are equally strong. It's not like he's trying to get a gig at the local Holiday Inn lounge, no!--he belongs in the concert hall! Larry Coryell (from the liner notes to "Look for the silver lining" album by Ferdinando Argenti" Based in Fucecchio, Tuscany (77 miles from Parma) Larry Coryell - Internationally known jazz guitarist

Chill and Chic by Nalìs "Annalisa, Michele and Roberto were our trio for one of the most magical nights we could've hoped for. They are incredibly talented, and it was absolutely the highlight of our trip to Italy. WOW!! Thank you for making our night feel like a dream. They were fun, professional, kind and the pure JOY was very evident as they each shared their God-given gifts. <3 Thank you for a moment we'll never forget." Based in Florence, Tuscany (84 miles from Parma) Jill Colclasure
