Review Centre: World Music Ensembles

"Hi Shama, A massive thank you to you and your team… you were truly incredible and we’ve had nothing but positive feedback from all of our guests… THEY LOVED IT!!! Yours and chirag’s voices are beautiful to listen to!! And yes, Jessica was amazing. It was my dream for a while to have her perform at my wedding and I can’t believe we made that happen with the extra icing on top being you guys! We couldn’t have hoped for a better evening celebrating our wedding and that’s massively down to you smashing the entertainment. I hand on heart loved every second and so did our guests! It’s lovely to hear from your perspective that everything came together exactly as we hoped and planned over the last year and yes, we can’t wait for some downtime in Dubai! A place we love too. I’m sure many many of our guests would love to see you perform again. I’m pretty sure we found you some big fans yesterday Take care and lovely to meet you and speak with you. One of the best decisions we made."

"They were fantastic! The music was great, with the band able to play modern songs and requests extremely very well. They were really easy to work with, communicated clearly and travelled with no complaints. We'll be booking them again, that's for sure!"

"The boys set the perfect tone to get the day started, easy listening jazz and funk music. All out guests commented how great they were and how they hit the tone of the party perfectly. Very easy to deal with and professional. Couldn't recommend them highly enough. Ben "

"Woooo, Shama and the 515 crew, what a fantastic group of musicians and entertainers. Shama and the crew turned our Mehfil night into a storm. Every conversation about the party with our friends has started with comments about Shama and the band. The comments range from ‘…her voice is like an instrument…’, ‘…the band can play, man…’, ‘…I’m converted to Hindi music…’, ‘…the signers got the most amazing voices…’, ‘…these guys are craftsmen…’, ‘…the young guy on the left - so cute..’ and… From the first conversation when I was making enquiries about dates to the day after the event you are dealing with a warm, professional artists that brings clarity to all the big stuff and the fine details. We appreciated a whole bunch of free advice from Shama before the event and the odd email every so often to ensure everything was on track. On the day the best thing we did was relax and leave the music in the hands of the pros – this what they do. They controlled the tempo, the songs and had the guests captivated from the get go. Apart from playing the expected Bollywood and Punjabi tunes that got everyone swaying and dancing and they even squeezed a Bob Marley tune or two. It’s a pleasure to meet and hear folks like this."

"We and our guests absolutely loved the music, and we also appreciated the wonderful approach that you all took to the day, being extremely helpful around technical arrangements, and flexible and responsive to our needs. We also especially appreciated that you were happy to learn a couple of specific pieces of music and perform them for us. We had a lot of very positive comments about the music, and would definitely recommend you to others! "

"We booked this band for a corporate event to celebrate the achievements of our customers. From the initial booking The VIP Formula communicated well and kept us updated. They arrived early to set up and test the equipment, meaning they were relaxed and composed and ready to start at the appropriate time.The band were very accommodating considering our time scales did not go to plan. Once the band started to play, the guests relaxed and really enjoyed the music, many guests commented on how much they enjoyed the music and singing and dancing. The Band made me as the organiser feel comfortable, communication was great, really accommodating gentleman. I would certainly have no hesitation in booking them for future events. Thank you for helping to make the day a great success."

"We and our guests thought Los Gitanos Kings were fantastic! The afternoon acoustic set was just right, and the evening set with the PA system had us all clapping, stamping our feet and banging the tables- it was great! Would definitely recommend them!"

"If you're looking for a band that keeps your guests entertained and on the dance floor, I highly recommend Grupo Carnival. They played a mix of funk, soul and Latin-inspired tunes that had everyone dancing all night. Their incorporation of Brazilian music was a nice touch which added an extra layer of fun and was original. The band know how to create a fun and vibey atmosphere and they were a pleasure to work with. Overall, I would definitely recommend Grupo Carnival for anyone in search of a wedding band that can deliver great music and a fun night. They made our special day a memorable one. "

"We just wanted to say thank you so much for playing at our chuppah. The aisle song was absolutely beautiful and made our ceremony so special. As I'm sure you saw everyone loved the simcha set. It really gave the simcha a good energy and everyone loved it!"
