Review Centre: Latin / Salsa / Mariachi Bands

"B & The Hornets are an amazing band! Even just their trio of musicians produced a superb comprehensive sound of such good quality and clarity. Each of the 3 musicians that performed for our 50th birthday party are evidently extremely talented with plenty of charisma. Bee the lead singer interacted well with the crowd and sang beautifully in Spanish, Italian & English. The band are evidently so skilful and produced such a kaleidoscope of stunning sound quality. They were also extremely helpful in corresponding by text, email and a phone conversation. B & The Hornets created such a good atmosphere for all our guests that have all feedback how brilliant they were. I just wish the party and their performance could have continued for several hours more as they did increasingly manage to draw a good number of our guests on to the dance floor who were having such a good time! I would definitely book again and hope to arrange a salsa party in the future! "

"A fantastically talented and professional duo who seem to enjoy an encyclopaedic knowledge of music from Central and Eastern Europe. Although they are only two musicians they produce the sound of a small orchestra. Igor possesses a very fine voice and his renditions of Moscow Nights, Ochi Chornie and Those Were the Days (among a huge list of songs) are second to none. Sarah is a brilliant violinist and domra player. They enhanced our evening and made it quite unforgettable. "

"The South west swing collective played on our Wedding day and they were absolutely fantastic! They picked great music, perfectly mirroring what we’d asked for, and intuitively picked up on the vibe they got off of our guests. Everybody loved them and it gave the night a real energy. They engaged the crowd and helped create a party we will never forget! We would highly recommend them to anyone who wants live entertainment for any event. An overwhelmingly positive experience from start to finish."
