"I'm pleased to recommend this band to you. Our students were reluctant to let them leave the stage and they were re-booked immediately. They provide superb entertainment and the music is excellent!"

"Simon was very easy to work with – and flexible on what the band could play. At very short notice they had to add some traditional bar mitzvah music to their repertoire, which they played very well. Also with almost no notice, Simon had to take over the role of MC during the later part of the evening, as our MC was slightly indisposed. He did that very well. The music was mainly dance music that most people could enjoy, either dancing or just listening to. We all loved it including my 20-year-old nephew who is studying piano at Trinity. Guests were dancing the night away and the music really added to the joyous atmosphere. And the sound level was kept at a reasonable level, so those who did not want to dance could still talk. We received lots of compliments on our choice of band. I definitely recommend them."

"The magnificent Love for Sale! Just wanted to say a massive THANK YOU for being such a joy to work with..... All our guests commented on how great you were - seems to have provided a perfect backdrop for getting the drinks flowing in the reception. We just wish we could have spent more time enjoying your set, but such is the busy nature of being a bride and groom! "

"We've had the absolute pleasure to have Ben and Joel play at our wedding during the reception. From lending us their keyboard for the ceremony to setting up to play at the drinks reception, to playing beautifully, they've been incredible throughout the day. We thoroughly recommend them for your event, whatever it might be. Ben and Joel, thank you once again for coming all the way to York and honouring us with your presence and lovely music at our wedding."

"We have had the great pleasure of having Nigel and his hugely talented jazz musicians perform for us at the Rye international jazz and blues festival on a number of occasions and I cannot recommend them more highly enough. The musicianship is first class and they have a very broad range of repertoire that suits all occasions and type of event These guys are consummate professionals and create a truly memorable and superb additional to any festival, corporate or private event I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again in the future."

"I just wanted to say thank you so much for providing us with such amazing music for our wedding on the 16th May. The music was just perfect and fitted so well with our French themed wedding. I adore French Gypsy Jazz. Everyone absolutely loved your music and so many people said that their time on the lawn with your music, the food and drinks (plenty of drink!) plus the great weather was their favourite time of the day. Thank you again for such wonderful music and for such great service. You have been a pleasure to work with. I will definitely recommend you in the future and would certainly contact you again should we need music for an event."

"Many thanks to you and the band for making my daughter's wedding very enjoyable for myself and all the guests. Everyone told us that it was the best wedding they had been to in a long time. Everything went to plan and it made it a day to remember and the band was perfect it was something that we wanted because we didn't want loud disco music and you did us proud! We will be passing your name on to any family or friends who may need a band in the future. Once again many thanks for the service you provided not just on the day but before the day as well."

"We booked Melisma Jazz at quite short notice for a garden party to celebrate our 5th Anniversary as a business. Sarah-Jane Morris was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was flexible in piecing together a quartet that suited our needs, and the atmosphere created by Sarah-Jane and her fellow musicians on the day was superb. Thank you so much Sarah-Jane for all that you did to make our event a special one for us, and we hope to have the pleasure of working with you again at some stage."

"the Jelly Roll Jazz Band provided music for the wake after the funeral of my father. Their music was lively and engaging without being distracting, clearly audible without being too loud for a conversation focused event and GREAT FUN. They did exactly as they were asked - I can't comment on their capacity outside of this. Clearly that event will never recur, but I would be delighted to work with them again for another event"

"On the night Pete Billigton set the right atmosphere with his piano, leading up to a superb gig with Fleur Stevenson singing, accompanied by Pete and Raph Mizraki on the double bass. Fleur's voice is remarkable and the choice of pieces was most fitting. I was complimented by many friends about the music - some jazz players themselves."
