Reviews of 1950s Era Musicians & Bands available in Bern

5/5 from 715 reviews
Photo of Victoria July Victoria July "Viktoria was excellent in communication leading up to the event and when she arrived at the venue very professional, friendly and self sufficient in setting up. She performed 2 sets - one in hot sunshine and another in a wine cellar - both were excellent in terms of choice of songs (according to my general wishes), quality of her singing (wonderful voice), quality of her PA equipment and her composure given hot outside conditions and a lively diverse party of people. I would thoroughly recommend booking Viktoria for your event. Bravo!" Based in Lausanne, Canton of Vaud (49 miles from Bern) Shaun Mattingley - Birthday Celebration Photo of Rhine Valley Ramblers Rhine Valley Ramblers "We were so happy that Didi and his band came and played their show. They were easy to work with, had awesome groove and made a good party. We will have them back here soon." Based in Dornbirn, Vorarlberg, Austria (112 miles from Bern) Sabine Koller - Dance Hall Photo of Belle Histoire Belle Histoire "Great wedding performance! It was great to have Belle Histoire performing at our wedding in Lake Como (at Relais Villa Vittoria) in July 2023. We had a great time, our guests had a blast. In addition to her absolutely incredible voice, the lead singer helped us make a couple of guest announcements as well. It was really easy to make arrangements with the band - the performance was exactly what we were hoping for and more. Definitely recommend!" Based in Saronno, Lombardy, Italy (119 miles from Bern) Anastasia I. - wedding party Photo of Hot Club du Nax Hot Club du Nax "The Hot Club du Nax played at our Zug Jazz Night this summer and they where truly amazing, great people and superb musicians. Hope to see you soon again! Oskar" Based in Innsbruck, Tyrol, Austria (187 miles from Bern) Oskar Furrer - Jazz Night Zug Photo of Sheldon & the Rollin' Cats 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. One of the best Rock 'n' Roll bands from the 50s I've heard so far." Translated from Italian Based in Genoa, Liguria, Italy (190 miles from Bern) Fabrizio M. - Evento pubblico 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, Italy (190 miles from Bern) Donia - Wedding party
