Photo of Nasamatband Nasamatband "Like your music ?? Very harmonic; wonderful; lovely songs" Based in Montréal, Quebec Nahla Photo of Adel Jouini Adel Jouini "I came across Adel's library of music by chance, when I was searching for artists that I hadn't heard of, or hadn't had much airplay in my opinion. I was blown away. Where had I been all this time. To think this was April 2021, and he had been around for much longer than that. How hadn't I heard of him before now. I love his mastery on the guitar. I introduce listeners to his track "Bursting bubbles" before any other, because for me there is so much beauty to it. Just when you think you've heard it all, it takes another twist. Anyone who has the time should take that opportunity to explore his music." Based in Montréal, Quebec Kemi B - Presenter of the Jammin' Zone with Kemi B Photo of La Bonne Melodie La Bonne Melodie "The French Duo were amazing - far beyond all expectations. Really lovely people. With excellent French accents. Frankie is also a superb multi musician as well as being a great singer. The audience did not want to let them go! Carole Browne | October 2026 Calne Music and Arts Festival, Wiltshire" Based in Beverley, England, United Kingdom 2nd November 2026 Calne Music And Arts Festival - French Cabaret Evening Photo of Café Crème Café Crème "We had Cafe Creme perform at our wedding on June 13, and they were absolutely fantastic. From start to finish, they created an incredible atmosphere and kept the energy high throughout the evening. Their vocals were outstanding, the musicianship was excellent, and they had a great ability to read the crowd and play exactly the right songs at the right time. Our guests loved them, and we've had so many compliments about the band since the wedding. They played a huge part in making our special day so memorable, and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. If you're looking for a talented, professional, and engaging wedding band, I would highly recommend Cafe Creme. Thank you for helping make our wedding day unforgettable! 🎶❤️" Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region, France 8th October 2026 Emeka - Wedding Photo of Nicoline Nicoline "Thank you from the bottom of our hearts once again to Nicoline!!!! 💛✨ She truly delighted us, it was absolutely incredible!!!!
