"I wish to thank you for your recommendation of Rory Duffy to perform with Holly (percussion & vocals) & Julian (guitar) in a Latin jazz trio for my wife's special birthday a couple of weekends ago. They were brilliant. A great musical backdrop to a very successful garden party and a real hit with all our guests. We will recommend them without hesitation. Thank you again. Clive, Garden Party Manchester, August 2011"

"The trio played for our client's open air Brazilian carnival summer barbeque. Combining swinging samba and bossa nova with uptempo popular tunes and funky originals, they went down a treat with our guests, creating a festive atmosphere and keeping them drinking and dancing until the embers glowed. The standard of musicianship was excellent and the level of professionalism very high. A great success!"

Hi Andy, That's great - thanks for this! Sure, please do get in touch should you require the Latin trio for any of your events (I know that the bar expressed an interest on the day). Thanks and best regards, Rory

"​We thoroughly enjoyed Latina Festivale's performance. Their music and energy had everyone off their chairs and dancing. Everyone that came seemed to really enjoy the night, glad they got up dancing when a few drinks had been drunk!!! Thanks so much for a great evening."

"Summer Samba exceeded all of our expectations! They entertained our 70 guests with enthusiasm, talent and even dressed the part! (1920's theme). They were a delight to co-ordinate with, and engaging with our guests throughout. They performed four 45 minute sets, with short breaks between. Swing, Jazz, Samba and Salsa throughout. I couldn't recommend them more! An absolute bargain if considering entertainment for a private bash or a work do! "

"We had Verve at our wedding reception and they were brilliant! Everything we wanted from a jazz band. I wish I could have spent more time listening and less time hosting! They were highly professional, dealing with the scorching heat on the day, and planning was easy and clear. We would highly recommend booking them."
