"I've seen a few performances already. Every time, sparkling, energetic, and the fun just splashes off of it. Tasty music from excellent musicians who are well attuned to each other. Enjoying it again and again every time!"
Audley Reid Saxophonist
"Audley played sax at our drinks reception and honestly, he was such a great choice. Just him and his sax, and the whole room felt warmer the second he started. Guests kept wandering over to listen, and a few came up to ask us who he was. He was super easy to work with too, showed up on time and just got on with it. We’d book him again in a heartbeat."
Party Hustlers
"We booked party hustlers for our wedding in Crete. We can honestly say this was the best wedding band we have ever seen. We were so impressed with their energy and performance. The frontman was amazing and we loved the saxophonist. Kyriakos’s communication was great which was super helpful as we are based in the UK. We cannot thank the Party Hustlers enough - they made our wedding so memorable!"
Sade de Luxe
"Amazing performance by Sade de Luxe! Our clients really enjoyed the music and the atmosphere they created throughout the evening. Thank you very much for this great collaboration!"
