Review Centre: Blues Bands

"Well this was something different…! Long-term friends and musical duo Paul Anderson (vocals/keyboard) and Dennis Fisher (guitar) brought the cool and refreshing sounds of Jazz/Blues/Soul/R&B ballads to the foyer, which went down very well with the people stopping to listen or passing through on their way to less enjoyable clinical commitments.

"Brilliant Band! Brilliant gig at Hanbury folks, feel that groove. Special credit to stand-in bass player. Great live entertainment, table-top Hendrix skills, great frontman. And wow Dee's vocals."

"The multimdeia presentation by Dave Merrick on the Origins of Jazz attracted an audience of more than sixty, with an encouraging number of young people. The recordings of New Orleans parade bands and others were used to illustrate the evening with Brendan Whitmore and Natalie Davis adding the live experience. Dave (Guitar) Natalie and Brendan had previously presented a Billie Holiday show at Bath's American Museum, which was a sell out with the demand for tickets exceeding the capacity by quite a margin. This is a welcome development to raise awareness to a new and younger audience of the music that has been so much of Just Jazz readers' lives especially as it is by musicians from the jazz world. - Robert Coles, Just Jazz (The Traditional Jazz Magazine) (Aug 10, 2016)"

"Straight Up not only had the dance floor packed all night, but the whole area around the dance floor too! Jeremy has an unbelievable voice and performance style - it feels wrong to describe them as a wedding band because they are just an incredibly talented group of musicians who happen to be able to sing brilliant covers with their own stamp. They were also an absolute delight to deal with throughout and took the 1.5 hour delay in starting as a result of dinner overrunning in their stride. Thank you for making our wedding day so special, and for giving us so many wonderful memories. "

"Just wanted to send you a quick note to say how wonderful the guys were on Sunday. In the end Martin was able to use his battery amp and the result was just fabulous. We had so many compliments about the performance and it made the whole atmosphere of the event. Thank you so much for helping us get this together at the last minute - you’re a life saver!"

"This is Tom, a customer at the Pepper Tavern Sat 11th October that kept us playing to 00.35 by asking more and more for his 10 friends who were loving our performance. His Uncle owns the building"

"The whole evening was amazing but was topped off by the Full Beans who were awesome! I have had so many lovely comments from people about how great they thought the band were from their music selection to the lead singer to the great atmosphere they created. I could not have been happier. I would recommend them and your service to anyone. It made everything so stress free particularly with your regular emails leading up to the night itself."

"Hi Andy, I wanted to say a huge thank you to you and the guys for an amazing night on saturday at Hamble River Sailing Club. You were extremely professional, both in the run up to our event and on the evening. Thank you for embracing our crazy theme (dress as a John) - the way you interacted with the crowd was really personal and went a long way towards creating such a brilliant and fun atmosphere. I can safely say that a good time was had by all and lots of our friends have remarked that you guys helped make the night. Thanks again and we'll be in touch next time we have a big birthday to celebrate!"

"I booked the group Jazzman for my Birthday party - The entire process from reviewing the band online & listening to their clips, booking with Sarah & her team and the actual entertainment delivered on the day was second to none. Nik the band leader was courteous and very helpful throughout the day...his singing & the band dynamics were excellent and all of my family & friends had a memorable day. Many thanks to Last Minute Musicians whom I will be using again. Great Job!"
