The DooLallys
"I first witnessed The DooLallys years ago at a kind of impromptu kitchen session. I think deeply soulful is the best way to describe their mix of pipes, strings, and song - seamless switches between O'Carolanesque 18th Century rave style to sweet balladeering, along with true and loving versions of traditional Irish music tunes, all layered with a knowing hedge school poetic sensibility."
Kymotopia
"I was thrilled when Kymotopia agreed to play at our wedding, and they somehow exceeded all expectations.
Jean-Nöel and Joseph were incredibly accommodating from start to finish, happily taking on special requests, including learning specific pieces especially for us, and even helping out with a few extra things on the day. We asked them to perform some of these learned pieces at key moments during the ceremony and they absolutely nailed it. "A World of Waves" (their first album) is forever going to be a musical portal for me back to that special day.
These two are fantastic musicians and wonderful to work with. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough!"
Accordion Show / Oleksandra Show
"Oleksandra is a skilled accoridon player. She played some very nice selection of songs based on the mood of the party and the guests. Everyone loved the music and the lovely ambience she brought to the party. Besides the music, she is very nice, flexible, responsive and puts in a lot of effort into her performance. We highly recommend her for any kind of event."
Anton Violinist & Ensemble
"We had such a wonderful experience having you perform at our wedding. Your energy, passion, and musical talent made the afternoon truly special. We particularly loved your rendition of “Shallow” by Lady Gaga, which was one of our requested songs, and the variety of music was perfect for the celebration. We received so many compliments from our guests throughout the day. Thank you for being such a special part of our wedding! 🤗"
Strello - Gipsy/Folk Trio
"The trio provided the perfect musical accompaniment for our Christmas party and created a great atmosphere. The selection of pieces was varied and perfectly suited to the occasion. We were particularly impressed by the musicians’ professionalism and their harmonious ensemble playing.
The music was never intrusive, but perfectly complemented the atmosphere whilst keeping everyone in good spirits. We also really appreciated the trio’s flexibility in accommodating our requests.
Conclusion: A fantastic contribution to a successful celebration – we can wholeheartedly recommend the trio!"
Mariachi La Bamba
"Gerson and his mariachi band were incredible. They were professional and delivered an unforgettable performance. They made my proposal to my now fiancé, a day we will never forget."
