Miss Julie Bryce "Wow, I love it! It’s a wild ride and sometimes it seems to be laughing at the listener… then there are the boats of jazzy pillows that carry you across the rapids. Very cool" Based in Knoxville, Tennessee (401 miles from Cleveland) Lydia Nicole - Private

Alex Alexander "Alex is always in time, inventive and giving a great feel to whatever he plays on! I highly recommend him as a drummer and percussionist." Based in New York (404 miles from Cleveland) Joy Askew - Songwriter

Fabiandrums "Hiring the singer and percussionist for our wedding's hora loca was hands down the best decision. Right from the start, the energy of the party skyrocketed. The singer is incredibly charismatic and perfectly masterclass at hyping up the crowd, and pairing that with the live beats of the percussion was on another level—it brought so much power to every song! They managed to get absolutely everyone on the dance floor, even those who usually stay seated at least grand ma and grandpa they were clapping. We highly recommend them if you want a truly unforgettable wedding." Based in Manhattan, New York (405 miles from Cleveland) 1st July 2026 Carlos Sanchez - SANCHEZ WEDDING 🎉
