Artist
"Nathaniel’s performance was a masterclass in musical storytelling. His emotive phrasing and improvisational depth on both guitar and keyboard captivated the audience from the first note. Blending Afro-jazz with traditional and contemporary influences, he created a sonic journey that was both rooted and exploratory. His leadership of the ensemble was seamless—each musician was given space to shine, yet the collective sound remained cohesive and intentional.
Beyond the music, Nathaniel’s presence radiated humility and warmth. His ability to connect with the audience, uplift fellow artists, and curate an immersive experience speaks to his rare combination of artistry and emotional intelligence. A true visionary, he continues to redefine what it means to be a jazz artist in South Africa and beyond."

Timothy Mark Price
"Timothy is thoughtful, incredibly talented, and very professional. I hired Timothy to play at my dinner party. Two days later, my guests are still reaching out to me saying how awesome the music was! Even our neighbors have been stopping by and asking about who was playing, saying the music was great.
Timothy is incredibly professional. The volume was at just right level so that it didn’t impede with the conversations going on around him. He had a really good idea of what songs would resonate with my guests, and near the end of the evening, my dinner guests pulled up their chairs and enjoyed his concert as he played one amazing song after another. Timothy wowed everyone. I will certainly hire him again!"

Amuse Manouche
"The perfect band for a party. Amuse Manouche performed at my leaving party at Murray Edwards College, Cambridge University, when I retired as President. I think almost every guest complimented me on the music. Beautiful vocals and a wonderful swing sound of the 1920s to 1940s. Amuse Manouche helped to create a relaxing vibe to the party while ensuring they never drowned out the conversation."

"I hired Andre Ramos for my 60th birthday party which I planned from America. He was absolutely fantastic! He was very prompt in responding to my questions and arrived at the venue early. He coordinated the details with my venue prior to my arrival which was a big help. His talent, professionalism, and energy made the celebration unforgettable. His music created the perfect atmosphere — everyone was singing, dancing, and smiling all night. There were so many compliments from guests. I highly recommend f him for any event! Thank you "

"We booked Eugene for a private dinner event and he absolutely elevated the whole night. His playing is classy, warm and incredibly tasteful. He read the room perfectly and shifted the set between background and more attentive listening moments. Our guests were still talking about him the next day."
