"We met The Stereo Jacks at our friends’ wedding the previous summer - they were incredible and we immediately enquired about booking them for our wedding. They are a lively, high quality, fairly priced band covering a wide range of memorable, energetic favourites. They were also more than happy to learn a few songs at our request. Very flexible and easy to liaise with when managing the booking. Highly recommend the Stereo Jacks!!"

"Party Sounds were great - very helpful and accommodating in our song choices, performed our 2 requested 'First Dance' tracks and played a great set which all the guests loved. They were a friendly bunch of guys and even let one of the guests play during their break! Highly recommended."

"I have listened to Jonathan Vinten with real pleasure over a number of years, playing solo, with his trio and recently with the full six piece band. Whatever the venue, ranging from the humble surroundings of the Tunbridge Wells Jazz Club to Leeds Castle, the Savoy Hotel London or the Grand at Brighton, his sheer quality as a musician stands out, as does the range of his repertoire. You need no telling that he has played with the very best in the business, yet, unlike some jazz musicians who seem to play for their own pleasure, Jonathan always sets out to entertain his audience. The standard of the trio is impressive. I have heard the “big” band only once so far but it was a joy, with a fine balance and extended solos you just had to listen to. I don’t get to hear him and the band often enough and, with my partner and friends, make a New Year resolution to put that right. "

"A huge thank you to Chris and The Band for playing at our wedding at Priston Mill on 13th May. We had seen the band a few times at gigs so we knew they were excellent,but they absolutely rocked our wedding, the dance floor was full from start to finish, young and old! It was just what we had dreamed of. Not only were the band great, but Chris gave us some great advice beforehand about timings etc based on his experience- which was spot on and really helped. They set up and packed away quickly and dealt directly with the venue so didn't disturb our day at all. Really professional and most importantly played great floor filling classics, and the vocals worked perfectly with every song. Finally, the band also managed our playlist for before their set and during the interval too which was fab. If you are thinking of booking this band- do it!"

"The early part of the day was covered by your HARPIST, she was extremely accomodating moving her position (and heavy harp) 3 times at our request including onto the balcony whilst photographs were being taken outside. Her flexibility and willingness to do this was well above and beyond the call of duty and I would be grateful if you would pass on our very sincere thanks for her support as I missed her departure on the day. And of course the music, a mixture of East and West, was superb and enjoyed and commented on by all. The Wedding Breakfast was accompanied by music from your STRING QUARTET who were similarly flexible when we moved their position. Music was again a mixture of Bollywood and classical/jazz/film music and, once again, enjoyed by all. Finally my thanks to you, your response to my very late request for musicians was both friendly and professional and your ability to provide to the specifications I supplied (a mixture of Indian and western music) was unique and certainly saved the day for me. In closing I would have no hesitation in recommending your organisation to others and would be happy for you to publish this note in part or full as you desire. Regards Nigel"

We could not get over how good you sounded, and the amount of people who commented on the band I know everyone felt the same.

I’m so glad you were looked after, as honestly you really did make the night for us!! Also on a side note but all the ladies thought you were all very good looking haha!!

"Our birthday celebration at London Zoo was lit up by The Roaming Rascals. So many guests, of all ages from 8 to 80, took to the dance floor and were blown away by the music, energy and professionalism of this amazing group of talented women. Those who didn't dance were just as entertained by seeing the band strut their stuff! Best decision ever - they made the party swing."
