Photo of The Queen Bees The Queen Bees "The Queen Bees were a fantastic addition to our event. Their performance was elegant, stylish and perfectly suited to the occasion. The musicians were extremely professional, with a lovely stage presence and beautiful musical arrangements. They added a very special touch to the evening and were appreciated by all our guests." Based in Nice, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur Region, France 3rd November 2026 Greg - Corporate Event Photo of The Gentlemen - Roaming Band The Gentlemen - Roaming Band "A huge thank you to The Gentlemen! You were exceptional: an incredible atmosphere, great music, our guests (and us too) loved it!!" Translated from French Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region, France 15th October 2026 Victoria Damiano - Mariage Photo of Azul Electric Violin Duo Azul Electric Violin Duo "They were brilliant and only wished I had booked them for longer!" Based in London, England, United Kingdom 19th September 2026 Andrea - Wedding Photo of Mart Kusters Musikgruppen Mart Kusters Musikgruppen "Mart and his group were excellent. They started our party and then it never stopped - our dancefloor was full from the beginning to the end of the night. Many people stopped and wanted to join our party because of them. Mart was also super easy to deal with and accommodating - would highly recommended!" Based in Venray, Limburg, Netherlands 15th September 2026 Abby King - Wedding Photo of Marcello Leanza Marcello Leanza "Words can’t describe how incredible Marcello and the whole band were for our wedding, 23/5/2026. I feel emotional just writing the review! From the moment I contacted Marcello, his professionalism and attention to detail has made me feel extremely special and valued, his communication was exceptional and he truly put in the time and effort to make our day magical, even playing “Here Comes the Sun” by the Beatles for us as a special nod to our Liverpool roots. The band looked impeccable, so stylish in their suits and sunglasses! And they ensured everything ran smoothly, from the ceremony, to the aperitivo and then the dinner. Not only that, the music was simply breath taking - every song choice we loved. It was lively, but classy and still allowed guests to talk while enjoying it. The setting - sipping our wine in the Sicilian sunset with their fantastic music… it’s something we’ll never forget. Each musician was a master of their craft and we genuinely feel honoured to have had them. I feel like we have made a friend for life and we extend the invitation to visit us in Liverpool, if they ever fancied it! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, we genuinely are on a high from the day." Based in Catania, Sicily, Italy 25th May 2026 Lydia Rimmer - Wedding Photo of Francis Francis "These guys absolutely made our day with their performance! We were so pleased Alex and the guys could join us in Cape Town — it meant the world to us. All the guests were blown away. Every single request was met!" Based in Milton Keynes, England, United Kingdom 21st April 2026 Jim - Wedding — Cape Town, South Africa
