Photo of Discovery band Discovery band "About two House of great no stop entertainment show with big hits of disco dance 70 80" Based in Recco, Liguria (66 miles from Parma) DISCOVERY 70 80 live band - Parties and concerts Photo of Giudy & Jean adventures Giudy & Jean adventures "I couldn’t be happier with Giuditta’s performance at our wedding! She was absolutely wonderful to work with from start to finish. Giuditta was professional, reliable, and attentive to every detail. She took the time to carefully prepare the playlist and was even happy to accommodate some of my special song requests, which made the ceremony feel even more personal and meaningful. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process - she was always responsive, helpful, and genuinely committed to making sure everything went smoothly. I especially appreciated how seriously and responsibly she approached her work. It was clear that she truly cared about delivering a beautiful performance. Thank you so much, Giuditta, for being part of our special day! I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented, dedicated, and professional cellist! ❤️" Based in Lucca, Tuscany (67 miles from Parma) 12th October 2026 Kate - Wedding Photo of Mauro Tudino Mauro Tudino "I listened to Mauro Tudino play in a venue in the center of Milan, and I immediately understood that his music would be perfect for the event I was organizing for my catering agency. I contacted him and we quickly came to an agreement. It was a success, he was very professional and discreet and created a warm and welcoming atmosphere with his saxophone. Highly recommended." Translated from Italian Based in Milan, Lombardy (72 miles from Parma) 25th January 2026 Giovanni G. Photo of Expander Band Expander Band "I had the pleasure of listening to the Expander band in July and August at a famous resort in Tuscany: they performed both as accompaniment during aperitivo time and in the large theater of the venue, proposing different programs, songs in Italian and English. The singer is fabulous; the male voice powerful and the whole band very professional. Really great and full of enthusiasm!" Translated from Italian Based in Milan, Lombardy (72 miles from Parma) rosangela peluffo - CR Photo of Ever Wanted Ever Wanted "There is no doubt that a formula like that of Ever Wanted has an undisputed charm: the guitarist (usually acoustic) knows how to weave truly hypnotic arpeggios, while dealing with precise and minimal rhythms, on which the saxophonist (also a flautist) manages to create unique and bewitching atmospheres for Brian's dirty and sick voice, committed to making immortal masterpieces of international rock songs. Acoustic enough not to be noisy, original enough to never sound predictable, intelligent enough to have chosen an authorial but mostly very well-known repertoire, in short they were able to give a lulling and stimulating evening. My customers were enthusiastic, I'm goin' to call them again" Based in Milan, Lombardy (72 miles from Parma) Tassello del Sei, Milano - Musical evening Photo of Fingers Pie Fingers Pie "The group, of 4 components, looks cohesive and organized. They entertain the audience with games and jokes between songs. The repertory is various and meets the needs of everyone: you can dance, you can sing, you can just sit and enjoy. You can hear famous music, from 80's to 2020, of all type with also very original variations made by them." Based in Milan, Lombardy (72 miles from Parma) Cara
