"Hi Rory. I can't thank you enough for your performance on Saturday night. We absolutely loved it and lots of friends have been asking me who you were because they loved it too! You created just the right atmosphere at the start, it really got the party going and then the RnB towards the end was just fabulous - I love live music and you made the party for me! It was everything I had hoped for and more. You really tailored the music to what we had requested. You and Lilli were totally professional liaising with me beforehand, arriving when you said you would and trying to accommodate all our wishes. I just wish you could have stayed for longer! Thank you both - I will have to think of an excuse to book you again! Amanda."

"Carlito Was the Highlight of Our Wedding! We booked him to play during our cocktail hour and then again in the evening with our DJ, and he completely exceeded our expectations. His saxophone performance was classy, energetic, and full of personality, he knew exactly how to read the crowd. The transition from chilled vibes to a lively evening party was spotless, and everyone was up dancing! So many of our guests commented on how amazing he was. He was also super professional and easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. We can’t recommend him highly enough!"

"We booked Carlito for our wedding evening party and he absolutely made the night! From the moment he stepped onto the dance floor with his sax, the energy in the room completely lifted. His freestyle sets alongside the DJ were incredible — smooth, vibrant, and perfectly in sync with every track. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing the atmosphere was. Carlito blended Ibiza-style vibes with classic party tunes and had everyone dancing non-stop. Professional, friendly, and unbelievably talented — he knew exactly how to read the crowd and take the party to another level. If you want your wedding party to feel unforgettable, Carlito is the one to book. We honestly couldn’t recommend him enough!"

"I would like to thank you and your band for attending our party. The energetic music brought the guests to the dance floor – it was packed! Thanks again Rory and your whole crew for entertaining our party!"

Hi Zivile, Thanks so much for your thoughtful message and for sharing that feedback—it’s really appreciated. I’m so pleased that the DJ set hit the mark and that everyone ended the night on such a high note! Also really glad the addition of a full PA gave the event the punch it needed. It was such a high to see 600 people on the dance floor during the DJ portion of the evening! I’d be happy to speak with the agency about better distinguishing our Brazilian and Latin offerings on their site too, to help guide future bookings more accurately. I want to say again how much I appreciate the opportunity to contribute towards such a special evening. Your professionalism and attention to detail were clear throughout, and I hope we’ll get to collaborate again soon. All the very best, Rorinho

"I have been meaning to email to let you know how great my do was and Rory made it extra special. Hearing him play was such a surprise for my guests they all loved his music... Rory Duffy was the icing on the cake for my 40th birthday celebrations. We had afternoon tea at Fanhams Hall Hotel with Rory playing the saxophone as my guests entered the venue and and throughout the afternoon while we ate our afternoon tea. I asked Rory for Christmas music and jazz to go with my birthday celebrations as it was three days before Christmas and he played amazingly. All my guests were so impressed with Rory's set of lungs as he played for hours. Rory made the atmosphere amazing and I would definitely recommend him. My friend has recently enquired about Rory for another do. Again thank you Rory for making my day extra special."

"We went to see Mariachi Las Valentinas in Hastings after watching one Youtube video and they blew me (and everyone that saw them) away!! We followed them to three venues (in favour of other bands we'd gone to see) as the experience was too good to miss out on. The costumes, the charming introductions and the joie de vivre of their performances were all first class as were there choice of songs. I can't recommend them enough (even if you have no knowledge or interest in Mariachi) as they are the most refreshing and enjoyable band I have seen in some time. Can't wait to see them again. "
