"The experience on the day was excellent all-round. Laura was punctual, professional and very pleasant to deal with. Her choice of music was exactly what was wanted and her playing was great to listen to. The nearest thing to a negative I can say is that I was constantly being approached by my guests to tell me how enjoyable Laura's playing was. Very grateful to her for making the event very much better than it would otherwise have been."

"We had our hindu wedding ceremony on August 13th, 2021, I was looking for a modern take on traditional Indian instrumental music as I didn't want the typical shehnai recorded sound playing on repeat in the background. I found Sandeep and his team through an agency online. The agency was helpful and put me in contact with Sandeep when I had questions regarding the music. Once speaking to Sandeep, I found him to be really helpful, knowledgeable, and highly professional. I had a few questions about the music as I had a song I wanted for my bridal entrance that was not on their playlist. Sandeep kindly reassured me that the song I had wanted would not be a problem for them to learn and they would be able to play it on the day, at this point I think there was 2 weeks before our wedding. Our wedding morning was bit of a shambles due to unforeseen circumstances, so we were running very behind with the timings of the day, the band continued to play and helped create a relaxed and intimate atmosphere and kept our guests distracted. They even stayed a little longer than planned as they could see how stressed we were, we are very grateful for this as we got the traditional music in the background of our ceremony. I am, to this day, really happy that we booked with Sandeep. They played beautifully, and we are still receiving compliments for the music. We have had friends reach out and ask for the band details. I'm just sad that I didn't get to personally enjoy the music more on our big day (due to wedding chaos), but we did get to hear them play again last year at a friend's wedding were we sat back and took in the atmosphere they created with their amazing music. I highly recommend booking with Sandeep they bring a beautiful modern twist to classical Indian music, which can be enjoyed by everyone. "

"We engaged Shama to organise and stage the entertainment for the 10th anniversary of Elevation Wealth Management . This included dancers, band and DJ in addition to providing all of the set. Support was very professional - didn’t have anything drop - and the results were brilliant . We have staged a number of parties over the years , including weddings and charity events. Guests who have attended most of them - said it was the best they had been to . Thank you Shama ! "

"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."

"I just wanted to extend a massive thank you for playing at our wedding on Saturday. You were fantastic! I will never forget the look on my dads face as he started dancing immediately when you played Mr Blue Sky. All the guests very much enjoyed it! I'm so sorry we didn't get a chance to say goodbye when you left I was swept up and didn't know if I was coming or going for most of the day! Thank you so much. Best wishes."

"Gig Dates - 2013 “Shama and her band were exceptional in making my husband’s 50th birthday party an evening to remember. I admire them for their punctuality and professionalism. The music was excellent Bollywood and Hollywood. All my family and friends thoroughly enjoyed it, they still talk about the evening. It was a wonderful feeling to see everybody dancing and singing with the team. I would have no hesitation in recommending to anyone and to hire them for any other future events. Well done to all the singers and thank you so much for a remarkable performance”. - May 2015"

"Laura played for my wedding on 07/09/2023 and she honestly made my day. Laura is professional from start to finish, incredible at what she does and is just a general beautiful soul. I requested a specific song that she didn’t know and she was more than happy to get learning it and let me tell you, she did an amazing job. Absolutely incredible. So lovely all round and I would 100% recommend her for your special day! "
