Luminous Duo
"We booked the Duo for our wedding in Barcelona. Before the ceremony the Duo were incredibly helpful and flexible in helping finalise the set list for our welcome drinks and cocktail hour and the equipment they would require. We were also fortunate that the Duo learnt our first dance song, sending over a demo well before the ceremony so that we could check that we were comfortable dancing to it.
On the day, both Nadine and Lumai were brilliant. They were exactly the style of performer we were looking for, with their bossa-nova sound setting the perfect atmosphere for our guests on their arrival and during our cocktail hour. We’ll always remember that we were fortunate enough to have a live band perform our first dance - thank you so much for making this happen!"
Derito
"Afrobossa, new style of music: Amazing fusion between Bossa Nova and African Music."
The Brubeck/Desmond Experience
"The Brubeck/Desmond Experience commanded a full house at The Bulls Head in Barnes, a premier London jazz venue. We have booked then again for this year. Cool and realistic to famous The Brubeck Quartet."
Eclectic Fusion duo
"The singer is something else amazing powerful vocals the piano player is also fantastic bringing energy to it."
Rory
"We booked Rory for our daughter's 21st where he played the piano for a relaxed drinks reception in the house, followed by sax working with the DJ in a much more lively party setting afterwards over at our annexe. Rory blended in perfectly in both settings, with relaxed sets being played on the piano followed by very engaged, immersive sets with the sax on the dance floor with our guests. He really just gets on with his thing and really made the event that extra special and received a ton of compliments from some very happy guests. We would whole heartedly recommend."

"Better than our idols
You only turn 65 once, so that called for a party with 65 guests, excellent catering, and live jazz music with a singer (Willem). Our preference was for the crooner style of Michael Bublé and Dennis van Aartsen, but this band was even better than our idols and exceeded our expectations: wonderful music, super professional, with friendly band members. It turned into a fantastic party with compliments about the music from all guests, young and old. We look back on it with great pleasure!"
