Lewis & Her Swing Band
"The Lewis Barfoot Jazz Quintet delivers amazing performances. The ensemble demonstrated a deep understanding of both the jazz and swing tradition and the soul of live interpretation, balancing technical precision with an inviting sense of spontaneity.
Lewis's leadership was evident throughout, with singing that was confident yet understated, allowing space for all the musician voices to shine.There was an unmistakable sense of enjoyment and mutual respect on stage, which translated directly to the audience. Dynamic contrasts were handled with care, and solos were expressive without ever feeling self-indulgent.
Particularly impressive was their attention to providing music that truly worked for dancers. Tempos, dynamics, and phrasing were handled with care, ensuring the music was not only enjoyable to listen to but also perfectly suited to the dance floor. Beyond the performance itself, the professional approach stood out throughout the entire process. Communication was clear and reliable from the initial booking through to the end of the event, making the experience smooth and stress-free.
Overall, the Lewis Barfoot Jazz Quintet combined high-quality musicianship with professionalism and thoughtful consideration for their audience, resulting in a thoroughly successful event."

Chris DeRosa Session Drumer
"Chris - I freaking love it. Literally was sitting in a doctor's office and started involuntarily smiling and dancing in my seat during your first drum fill. I think you get what I'm looking for, I'm really happy. I love that you're doing your own thing while also fitting inside and amplifying the groove I'm trying to get at. Many many thanks! You're a terrific drummer!"

Bridget Merchant - Wedding Cocktail Hour
Pianista Siena
"We chose this pianist for our wedding in Siena, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions we made during the entire planning process. From the very first contact, everything felt easy, professional, and well-organized. He took the time to understand exactly what kind of atmosphere we wanted, asking detailed questions about the ceremony, the reception, and even the style of our guests. This level of attention really made a difference.
On the wedding day, everything was absolutely flawless. He arrived well in advance and handled all the setup independently, which allowed us to focus entirely on enjoying our day. The music during the ceremony was simply breathtaking. Each piece was performed with such sensitivity and elegance that it enhanced every emotional moment without ever feeling overwhelming.
During the aperitif and dinner, the piano created a sophisticated and relaxing atmosphere. The repertoire was incredibly well chosen, moving naturally between classical pieces, light jazz, and modern arrangements. Many of our guests commented on how beautiful and refined the music was, and several asked us for his contact details.
What impressed us the most was his ability to adapt in real time. He seemed to read the room perfectly, adjusting the intensity and style of the music according to the mood of the moment. It never felt like a fixed performance, but rather a living part of the event.
If you are planning a wedding in Siena and want something truly elegant and memorable, this is exactly the kind of professional you need."

Miz Terrell
"Miz performed with out band when our singer was out for a gig and she did the gig very well, she was very engaging to the audience and sounded great.
Not all of the set we had suited her style but we were able to adjust and play songs that suited her.
Miz Terrell is a good singer and performer."
