Thank you!" Based in Palermo, Sicily, Italy (166 miles from Rabat) 11th July 2026 Danny & Amy - Wedding Sicily

Myky Petillo "Myky is so kind and professional in each step of the organisation process as he is an amazing explosion of energy on stage!! He offers a very wide choice of songs and each performance is heartfelt and unforgettable: the remarkable vocal quality is accompanied by scenic outfits and great staging!" Based in Naples, Campania, Italy (344 miles from Rabat) 13th July 2026 Blandina - 2 events: a private wedding and the recital of a dance academy

Kashmir "A quartet of professional musicians able to take you on a musical journey across decades, styles and emotions with ease and great taste. We heard them live at my wife’s 40th birthday party, and they managed to turn a private celebration into a tailor-made concert, engaging and refined. Their repertoire is wide and well curated, ranging from international classic rock to Italian songwriting, including pop, blues and timeless classics. Each song is reinterpreted with personality, while always respecting the original, and arranged to highlight the balance of the quartet. Sacha’s voice stands out, supported by a solid, dynamic and never intrusive instrumental section. They also showed an excellent ability to read the audience: although we had agreed on a slightly different playlist, they quickly sensed the crowd’s taste and adapted it elegantly, choosing the right songs at the right moments. The music accompanies, moves and brings people together — never just background music, but never overpowering either. It’s exactly where it should be. Great musicians, great music and a voice that truly connects. In our opinion, Kashmir are the ideal choice for anyone looking for quality, atmosphere and authenticity. We received countless compliments." Based in Benevento, Campania, Italy (363 miles from Rabat) 27th December 2025 Fabrizio - 40th birthday

Steve Wonder "They just finished a live performance at my venue... simply fantastic: perfect sound and an impeccable voice, at the level of the best live performances! Bravo to everyone!!!" Translated from Italian Based in Andria, Apulia, Italy (384 miles from Rabat) Luigina Scarale

GrooveIT "Fantastic group, I always follow them, their evenings offer entertainment and good music !! Very brave !!!" Translated from Italian Based in Rome, Latium, Italy (427 miles from Rabat) 5th November 2025 Monica Matus
