L'Esprit du Jazz
"“L’Esprit du Jazz, accordionist Karen Street’s quartet in a pleasing set of tightly arranged swing and jazz. The music ranged from Galliano musette tunes to Scottish folk style and a smoky rendition of The Way You Look Tonight from bass-playing vocalist Charlie Pyne.”
Bath Festival"
Ciaran O’Donovan Music
"Ciaran is a top entertainer- I booked him as a solo vocalist and he really is one of the best singers that I have worked with to date. Everything from all Jazz crooners to Ed Sheeran style upbeat songs, Ciaran has a voice that can do it all. I would absolutely work with Ciaran again and fully intend to."

Shane Paul- Bass Player
"These guys were fantastic at a wedding I was at last night. They kept the crowd dancing all night with a great range of songs and showmanship. Loved it when the singers stepped onto the dance floor and showed off some Michael Jackson moves!"
The Paris Plan Dj saxophone duo
"We hired this DJ sax DJ bass formation to have exclusive entertainment for our guest, we got a lot of positive reactions! Thank you Paris Plan!"
NoNi Trio
"NoNi Trio gave a wonderful, graceful, and elegant performance at our wedding. Their music created exactly the warm, sophisticated atmosphere we had hoped for, and their set was one of the most memorable parts of our celebration.
They were exceptionally professional, friendly, kind, and accommodating throughout the planning process. In advance of the wedding, they coordinated directly with our DJ and sound engineer to ensure that all sound-equipment requirements were sorted smoothly. They also discussed the setlist with us clearly and thoughtfully, including many of our favourite classics by Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, Sarah Vaughan, Peggy Lee, Louis Armstrong, and more.
They went above and beyond by working with a friend of ours—a backing vocalist and songwriter—who had composed a song especially for us. NoNi Trio helped incorporate her performance into their set, making the moment feel especially personal and meaningful.
It was an absolute pleasure working with NoNi Trio from start to finish. We would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful, high-quality live jazz for a wedding or special event."
