Photo of Coverbolaget Coverbolaget "Really nice Band. They helped me with my event even though my budget was not so much they gave it their all. I hope this review help them!" Based in Gothenburg, Västra Götaland County (150 miles from Malmö) 3rd April 2026 Helena J - Private party Photo of Adar Alfandari Adar Alfandari "Adar played in my wedding ceremony, and I couldn't ask for a better job. We asked a specific song for our ceremony, 'I wanna be yours' by Arctic Monkeys, and Adar made a special version of it and even produced a stunning backing audio to go with his live performance in our event. It was very special and artistic and we got so many compliments." Based in Berlin, Germany (214 miles from Malmö) Bar & Ofri - Wedding Photo of Zora Zora "Zora was extremely helpful after I had found their work through youtube; helped with creating an original ost for my upcoming short film. They took feedback well whilst offering their own insight to how they could better enhance the performance. Would recommend to anyone!"

Their performance of our chosen first dance song was pure magic and made it extra special. Whether you're looking for some background music for an event or full on party live music we can't recommend them highly enough." Based in Nottingham, England, United Kingdom (598 miles from Malmö) Jenny & Tim - Private Wedding Photo of Le Groupe Moon Le Groupe Moon "The band Moon was amazing! We wanted to mark the occasion and surprise our guests with a rock concert for our wedding. The band's set list perfectly matched our expectations and the exchanges with Romain were fluid to allow us to organize this evening at best. The band made a sensation with our guests and we can't wait to find a new occasion to see them perform again." Based in Compiègne, Hauts-de-France, France (604 miles from Malmö) Cam & Ben - November 2022 - Private Wedding
