"We wanted some steel band music to set the tone for our Caribbean themed Golden Wedding Anniversary Party so we booked Gary Trotman. He was the ultimate professional. He arrived early, set up quietly with no fuss and then delivered exactly what we wanted. We told our guests that he had flown in especially from Barbados to perform and he was so good some of them believed us! The icing to the cake was that we asked for a specific song which Gary wasn't expecting but he researched it quickly and delivered. Very special We highly recommend Gary - a class act"

"For the third year The Brixham Pirate Festival will have The Extonions playing on the Main Stage. Pirates are a discerning crew and The Extonions had them a jiggin' and toe tappin' throughout their set. HUZZAH!!!"

Thank younRuss , while it lasted under your management, we though roughly enjoyed every moment as did the crowd. People often ask why we are not playing anymore on the main stage, and we have to say, we don't know.

"Polina plumbs energy from the same archetypical sources that make blues and flamenco singing so powerful."

"It's Matthew here, thank you so much for Saturday, you guys were amazing!! and we're so grateful that you took the time to learn our song, the only thing I regret is that we don't have a video of it but the memory is good enough. Please say thank you to the rest of the guys, you made Maria a very happy lady, she got very nostalgic when you started playing :)"

"Shama and The 515 Crew deliver more than just a show – the clarity of vocals and passion in their performance left both us and the audience wanting more. The stand out highlight of Bollywood Fever 2015 was having Shama and The 515 Crew 'wow' those present, set against the perfect backdrop of Bargehouse, Oxo Tower Wharf in the heartland of London's cultural district South Bank. Polite professionalism, whilst being able to perform to an expectant audience is a rare commodity in the entertainment industry, however Shama and The 515 Crew achieve this in abundance. Comfy seats are not needed since by the end of the jam everyone will be on their feet shaking a leg!' - May 2015"

"We just wanted to say thank you to all the members of the band for playing at our wedding on 24/7/21. You were all so kind and friendly, and played such wonderful music throughout the evening. You were the perfect band for our laid-back, happy summer wedding and it was a pleasure to be able to sit down and listen to your songs. Both us and our guests really enjoyed being able to chill out and soak up the atmosphere with some great music being played. It was really nice to meet you and have a chat whilst we were having our fish and chips too. You were all so professional, and we really appreciated you coming to play at our wedding."

"The strolling performance by the New Orleans Trad Jazz Marching Band was exactly what was required to announce the opening of the new Burger and Lobster restaurant at West India Dock in June 2016. Thank you very much, guys! Burger and Lobster Restaurant Group"
