"Soli Strings were absolutely perfect. They opened our wedding ceremony and accompanied it and our reception with the most beautiful music. As soon as they started playing the atmosphere was suddenly magical and they made it all seem effortless. On top of that they are wonderful people, we had people commenting all day on how nice they were and how well they played! Somehow they sound even better in person than their recordings. It was genuinely breathtaking on the day and they managed to fill an outdoor space with music easily. They performed two 45 minute sets and would absolutely recommend that as it flew by, we certainly wouldn't have wanted less! Thank you Soli Strings!"

"I would like to thank you and Alan and Rupert very much indeed for playing so beautifully at my birthday party. I know that I enjoyed your music enormously and so many guests commented on your very professional playing and the entertaining style of your music and felt it was just right for the evening. With all good wishes for future successes and renewed thanks for everything, including juggling the time table slightly to accommodate late dinner arrivals and sausage and bacon sandwich distribution! This was very much appreciated. as"

"I Just wanted to write to thank Five Star Swing for playing at our “1940's night”. You interpreted the mood of the event perfectly and helped maintain the atmosphere right to the end. Hopefully we’ll have the opportunity to work with you again in the future."

"Thank you Havana Kings. The client appreciated your versatility from the instrumental six piece with drinks followed by the laid back trio during dinner and the full seven piece with vocals for the show. Brilliant work!"

"The BV's performed in June 2016 at my parents Golden Wedding celebration and we couldn't have asked for better. Their playlist was excellent and fitted perfectly for the occasion. They set up up promptly and were excellent at involving my parents and the younger guests appropriately making it a very special and enjoyable evening. I actually can't recommend them any higher!"

"I booked Tom and his band a couple of weeks before my wedding as a surprise for my groom. Communication was quick and easy, booking was really simple and they met all of my requests (including setting up in half the time they would usually do so that they could avoid being spotted by the groom!) The music was fantastic, went down very well with our guests who commented on how perfect an accompaniment the music was to our drinks reception. They even got the kids having a boogie! Thanks so much guys, definitely highly recommended by us!!! "

"Sonia and her band have performed at our Jazz Lunches for some time and have always been very popular. Their music is very mellow and easy to listen to, with Sonia’s velvet tones bringing a warmth and depth to the melody. This year, they played for us on New Year’s Eve and guests, as well as staff, really enjoyed their performance. "

"Love for Sale John, Karen and Ennio were absolutely fantastic: they were meant to be a surprise for my husband 40th birthday party and it all worked very well! They have been professional, organised, accommodating, punctual and, most importantly...they played fabulous music! The guests raved about their jazz, they definitely made the event a special one."

"This is an amazing ensemble, and I really enjoyed their live performance. Everything sounds quite harmonic, including the trumpet which is probably the uniqueness of the group. Glad I was able to enjoy them live. "
