Her passion, commitment, and attention to detail were evident from start to finish. The level of involvement and care she showed made a real difference and contributed greatly to the success of the event.

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."
Swingy duo
"We were very lucky to have Alice and Fernando travel up the country and perform at our wedding. We had them perform at both our drinks reception and the after-dinner entertainment.
We had given a few suggestions like to play some ‘summery rock music but in their own style’ as well as performing their own style of music, and they absolutely delivered! They are both extremely talented and it was such a unique musical act to hear at a wedding which was exactly what we wanted!
We were so happy with everything they did and highly recommend them.
The only downside was that myself and the groom were not able to just sit and listen to them playing as we were so busy throughout the day 😂"
Bobby Mc and The Dukes
"Bobby Mc and The Jukes were absolutely fantastic"
Jazzrain
"Jazzrain was exactly what we were looking for.
They managed to make our wedding unique.
The violinist, accompanied by the keyboard player during the ceremony, made everything more magical.
The aperitif with a jazz rhythm gave the right atmosphere.
The singer's heavenly voice was the icing on the cake. Finally, the drummer Mattia, who accompanied us throughout the whole process with the choice of songs, was truly available, prepared and super professional. We could not have made a better choice for our big day"
