Hi Steve Thanks so much for inviting me down to play at your party, it was truly an honour and a pleasure, and I really enjoyed your company and the company of all your friends and family. I’ve just got back from Clapham where I’ve been telling Jo how well it went and she is thrilled too and I’m sure shell relay it back to our agent so all in all it was a great success and glad to be a part of it. I really appreciate your kind testimonial too - many thanks! I hope you enjoyed the rest of the afternoon and evening!! I sincerely hope to come back and play for you guys again! Best wishes Rory

"I heard Rory playing an impromptu set at the Long Table and I was blown away with his performance. Extremely talented on many instruments, he got everybody dancing and a really fun guy. I'd recommend him to get the party started with the talent!"

"We absolutely loved having you perform at our wedding so thank you :)  "Rory played at our wedding in London and was such a great choice for our big day. He was really easy to communicate with in the lead up which meant all our requests were performed on the day. Everyone commented what a lovely addition Rory was for when our guests arrived and into the post ceremony drinks reception, creating the exact atmosphere we had hoped for. Thanks Rory for helping make our day extra special."

Hey Saira Thank you for writing- that means the world to me! I’m really happy you enjoyed the music and I mentioned you to my agent as you seemed to be the one who recognised the most tunes. It’s that musician in you! Thank you for being such great clients and joining in the spirit of the party. I hope to entertain you guys again soon. Cheers Rory

"We had Latina Festivale at one of our Terrace parties... Latina Festivale put on a great show and our guests definitely enjoyed the night. They created a warm and lively atmosphere and we were really impressed with their repertoire, they sang in English and Spanish. The feedback from our guests was also very positive. "

"This is going to be a stunningly good review. I booked De Fuego fairly last minute to play at our event. The booking was easy. Edina was extremely user friendly when it came to accommodating the particular arrangements we needed to make our evening work and communication before the event was quick and easy. It's a bit difficult to get to our club because it's a ship mooed along the foreshore at Leigh on Sea. This was no problem to them. Punctual. Then they started playing. Mesmeric ! The sort of talent that bring a tear to your eye. If you're thinking of hiring a guitar duo these are the people. In fact even if you're not thinking of hiring a guitar duo do it anyway. Get them in your living room if all else fails. You won't be disappointed."

"Thanks for your e-mail and I just wanted to reply on behalf of the whole team to say thank you for your help in making the arrangements for Rory and the band to be with us for our event. Our feedback is hugely positive - Rory arrived in plenty of time and liaised with us about the best place to get set up. The music was fabulous and exactly what we were hoping for in terms of providing a relaxed atmosphere for guests. We received lots of positive feedback about the whole reception on the lawn, including the music, so thanks to Rory and the band for their contribution to our event's success. We would highly recommend them."

"You were absolutely brilliant. Thank you for you for ensuring an absolutely magical and atmospheric evening. The age range was 21 to 60 and everyone loved your music. You understood exactly the mood of the party and the music was just right. You are excellent musicians and singers. It meant so much to me to have those Latin American rhythms as a backdrop to our party. I couldn't recommend you more highly. You were also extremely nice, professional and efficient in all your dealings. Gracias mil a Juan Carlos, Guillermo, Nickolai y Rafa. "
