Review Centre: Bands & Ensembles

"I wanted to email to say a massive thank you to you and the rest of the band. As I hoped the band was brilliant. Playing the first song was a touch, especially as I wasn’t expecting the sax. It was great to hear you play the Irish Rover after the interval as it got everyone up off their seats in their droves. I’ve been to in excess of 30 weddings and you guys are by far the best gig I’ve seen, and I thought this after I saw you at Caroline and Geoff's wedding. I’ve countless comments from those who were at my wedding saying you were brilliant. Thanks again. I can’t praise you chaps highly enough."

"Dear Rachel Sorry it’s taken me forever to contact you with my sincere thanks for such perfect wedding music. It made my Mum cry through the whole thing. Everyone had the most fantastic time. So thank you, thank you, thank you. So much. (Apologies for not even seeing you in person to say this before you left.) Best Wishes Vicky "

"Groove Time were excellent! In the build up to the event Matt was in touch regularly to make sure everything was going according to plan, and was easily contactable if needed. On the night they adjusted their set list to suit the party theme that we had which was very much appreciated. Once Groove Time started playing the dance floor was full until they finished. Everybody loved them! Brilliant band who contributed so much to make party the success that it was!"

"Kiki played at our birthday festival in summer 2024. They were absolutely amazing, loved the mash ups. All our friends and family couldn’t wait to tell us how good they were and what a good time they’d had. Can’t recommend them highly enough. I saw her again at Burnley Business Awards I told all my colleagues how fab she was and they were not disappointed! 🥳"

"Thank you for making our wedding such a special day. Absolutely everyone has commented on how brilliant the music was and how much they enjoyed it, both during the ceremony and later on in the evening. It was so uplifting and energetic, sincere but also fun at the same time. I’m afraid to say I burst into tears at one point in the evening as you played Ami Manero – it’s such a lovely tune and after umpteen glasses of champagne it all got a bit too much….tears of happiness, I hasten to add! We truly believe we couldn’t have picked a better band – you created exactly the mood we wanted and it was so nice to see all of our friends and family enjoying themselves so thoroughly on the dance floor. I joined some friends out on the terrace at one point, and the sound of the music drifting out through the French doors on the candlelit terrace created a really lovely atmosphere. Perfect. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you and will continue to tell anyone who will listen about your band. "

"Last summer, we were delighted with the performance of saxophonist / clarinettist Rory Duffy and pianist Chris Roe exploring the music of George Gershwin. This summer, Rory Duffy enchanted the audience with his fusion of acoustic Latin with Brazilian music, jazz and soul and the arrangements were tastefully orchestrated with Julian Harris on guitar and Venezuelan percussionist James Vielma. It made for an engaging performance. We hope to have him back again soon! Whitworth Art Gallery, July 2012"

Hi Anne, Thanks so much for this! I hope to have the opportunity of returning at some point in the future, and all the best with upcoming concerts. Thanks, best regards, Rory

"What an absolute pleasure to have Ariana String Quartet play before, during and after our wedding ceremony. They were friendly, professional and wonderful musicians. So many of our guests commented on how lovely they were to listen to. They understood what we wanted and played all the music we asked them to so beautifully."
