"Really impressive musicians with a fun, jazzy sound. We’d definitely book Jazz Eclipse again. They were a highlight of the night!"

"Fi has, rightly, a greatly praised voice, and this worked a treat in that environment. She possesses excellent technique & frequently went for complex lines and pulled them all off with aplomb. She has equally good dynamic sensibilities and used shifts of these with discretion for extra effect. Alex's playing mirrored this: skilled yet tasteful with generally chorded accompaniment when Fi was singing and when it came to his solos, the runs, though often improvised, served the song, not his ego. They have an empathetic understanding I think: not just in the interplay between voice & piano but also in their several duets & this was another element in the playfulness"

"We've booked the swing zippers for two high profile events in the last year: Their first appearance took place at our annual goose fair dinner and awards ceremony where they performed a 30 minute set in the break coffee break. It was supposed to be an opportunity for our guests to mingle but everybody stayed in their seats as these two fabulous musicians blew them away with some pulsating gypsy jazz. The second and most recent appearance was part of our 30th anniversary celebrations with German city Karlshruhe. The duo played for 1 hour whilst our guests interacted during the dinner break. Their sound, style, talent and superb range of acoustic instrumentals was simply perfect for the occasion! "

"Rachel sang at our Wedding and she was absolutely amazing. Lots of my guests have commented what a beautiful voice Rachel has. I am so pleased she was able to sing what we wanted. Rachel was very professional at all times and Rachel gave us a CD of the songs she sang on the day - just for our keepsake - although a lovely touch. Would definately without a doubt use Rachel's services again and recommend her to anyone. "

"I booked Oriana & The Charmers (as a duo) for a customer event in one of our London stores and they were great - very professional! I had great feedback from both the store staff and customers, and would definately use them again! Great music and nice vibe. "

I'm glad we went down so well. It was good to have a little crowd of dancers towards the end too! Graham

"Swinging like a barn door in a Texas breeze, the album shows the tightness of a band that have spent many years on the road. An established favourite on the jazz and nostalgia circuit, this well respected and popular five piece have evolved a contemporary style from a mash up of genres from the early 20th century...Cool jazz guitar, bass driven swing, excellent dobro, evocative harmonica and smokey vocal tones, velvet dipped in bourbon. Material is varied and well chosen, a souvenir from stage from one of the best live jazz-lite bands on the circuit."
