Reviews of Motown Bands available in Avignon

5/5 from 289 reviews
Photo of Call me Winston - The Tarantino tribute Call me Winston - The Tarantino tribute "The effectiveness of music in Quentin Tarantino's five films has much to do with the way he perceives music. Tarantino thinks that songs in general function as miniature films. He views music as a way to extend the plots of his films. The soundtrack has the responsibility not only of setting the tone of the scene, but also of bringing clarity to emotions that are not fully expressed by the characters. All of this works seamlessly because Tarantino hears the song first, then writes a scene around it. It is therefore not surprising that music has such a remarkable impact in his films. How does music affect the way we perceive Tarantino's films? It is true that all music will make the viewer react emotionally, but what matters to Tarantino is that, most of the time, music produces what he perceives as the "appropriate" emotional impact on a scene. For example, if something other than "Stuck in the Middle With You" had been chosen to accompany the "ear cutting" scene in Reservoir Dogs, the audience might never have known about Mr Blonde's sadistic tendencies. The key to Tarantino's success in avoiding music perceived as just "adequate" is that he writes all his film scripts with specific music in mind. By being determined in his selection, Tarantino ensures that the music of Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Kill Bill Vol.1 and Kill Bill Vol. 2 plays an active role in the narrative structure of the film and, equally important, that it does something the audience will want to remember. These are the memories that the members of Call me Winston wish to bring back to the viewer. This "tribute band" orchestra newly created on the Côte d'Azur is unique in the South Region. With its 10 members, (singer, female singer, guitar, bass, drums, percussion, keyboards trumpet, alto saxophone, baritone saxophone), it will remind you of the best moments from Tarantino films through their soundtrack." Translated from French Based in Monte Carlo, Commune de Monaco, Monaco (131 miles from Avignon) Chris Anderson Photo of Peter Gynt & The Glass Gang Peter Gynt & The Glass Gang "We invited Peter and his band to my daughter's birthday party. I highlight their professionalism, they arrived on time (they came from Barcelona to Mollet), they took care of managing the sound without any complications and they performed animating the party. Tremendous musicians and a tremendous show they put on!" Translated from Spanish Based in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain (222 miles from Avignon) Jordi Mirò - Fiesta de cumpleaños privada Photo of Blackjack V Blackjack V "Blackjack V played a great set at our wedding. Lewis included a cocktail hour, and stayed after the set to play a playlist through his soundsystem. All of that was additional and a really nice touch. The band sound great and play an awesome mix of tunes. We'd highly recommend booking Blackjack V to anyone seeking a band in France." Based in Poitiers, Nouvelle-Aquitaine (284 miles from Avignon) Andy & Tasha - Private wedding Photo of Good Time ☆ Soul Foundation Good Time ☆ Soul Foundation "I can’t recommend Stefano and the Good Time Soul Foundation highly enough. They performed at my father’s 75th birthday celebration in Tuscany, and they were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. The evening began with a relaxed, elegant aperitivo set during drinks and dinner, creating exactly the atmosphere we were hoping for. Later, they seamlessly switched gears into a high-energy disco set that had everyone—from the youngest guests to the oldest—up on the dance floor. It was the perfect progression for the evening and created memories our family will cherish for years to come. The band was superb and the singer hit ALL the notes to perfection! Throughout the planning process, Stefano was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with, making everything stress-free. Due to sound and timing restrictions at our dinner venue, we planned to move to a second location for the dancing portion of the evening. Stefano was extremely helpful throughout this process, offering practical suggestions on how to manage the transition smoothly and efficiently. His experience and guidance made the logistics feel effortless. If you’re looking for a professional, talented, and flexible band that knows how to read the room and create the perfect atmosphere, I would wholeheartedly recommend Stefano and the Good Time Soul Foundation. They were one of the highlights of our celebration, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again." Based in Siena, Tuscany, Italy (329 miles from Avignon) 28th July 2026 Vishaal Pawani - 75th birthday celebration Photo of Shaal Sax Shaal Sax "Alex of Shaal Sax was an absolute delight to work with and have play at our wedding. We’d highly recommend! My husband and I booked Alex for our wedding just about 10 days before the big day and Alex was great at communicating, offering creative ideas, and adapting without much notice. He was quick to respond, and extremely kind both via the internet and in-person. He showed up hours in advance to make sure technology worked smoothly alongside our DJ, and he bravely played in front of our crowd of ~165 French and American guests moving between dinner tables during dessert and then around the dance floor alongside our DJ for several songs. Having him in the center of the dancing was a huge crowd pleaser. He brought the energy up from about 7/10 to 11/10! ;) everyone loved it so much and he will truly remain such a highlight of our wedding day! Awesome experience hiring Shaal Sax!" Based in La Rochelle, Nouvelle-Aquitaine (329 miles from Avignon) 25th June 2026 Marinna Martens - Wedding Photo of Groove Gang Avenue Groove Gang Avenue "We are absolutely thrilled that we chose this band for our wedding! From the very first contact, communication was incredibly friendly and professional – replies always came quickly, which was a huge help during the planning process. On the big day, the band arrived on time and remained discreet in the background until it was time to perform – everything was smooth and stress-free. Musically, they nailed the style we had requested and created a fantastic atmosphere. Our guests were just as impressed as we were! We truly believe the value for money was excellent – given the quality of the service, we can wholeheartedly recommend them. A huge thank you to the entire band – you made our day even more special!" Translated from German Based in Siena, Tuscany, Italy (329 miles from Avignon) Jan Saponara - Teotonico - Wedding
