Review Centre: Latin / Salsa / Mariachi Bands

""I booked Latina Festivale for our annual company summer party, seeing as it was a Latin-themed party the band were a perfect fit. The booking process with easy and Rory was efficient getting over all the information I needed. We split the performances into two, which got more up-tempo as the evening went on. The vocals and quality of the musicians were outstanding and the band blended in well with our guests. The live performance definitely made the party all that more memorable, I certainly recommend booking the band for your next party!""

"Edina played at my wife's 60th birthday garden party 6th September Edina was amazing not only was her playing brilliant but her presentation and choice of music, much of which was composed by her, created a relaxed and jovial atmosphere very much appreciated by all our guests. We were also further entertained when she played several very intricate and superb guitar duet pieces with Marcos. We thoroughly recommend her."

"Thank you very much for playing for us this evening. It was a great atmosphere and thoroughly enjoyed by staff and customers alike. We would very much like you to return if at all possible. The experience could only have been enhanced if Havana reps could have attended and given our guests some samples. All in all a great experience. Thank you to everyone."

"Rory and his colleagues played at my husband's 40th birthday party. This was held on a summer evening at home for around 60 people. Having live music totally transformed the night. Rory's band created a really unique atmosphere. The music was relaxed and subtle, which meant that the conversation could flow, but so enjoyable to listen to that you didn't want it to end. I would love to have the opportunity to hear them play again and I would not hesitate to engage them for another occasion."

"We booked Rory for our daughter's 21st where he played the piano for a relaxed drinks reception in the house, followed by sax working with the DJ in a much more lively party setting afterwards over at our annexe. Rory blended in perfectly in both settings, with relaxed sets being played on the piano followed by very engaged, immersive sets with the sax on the dance floor with our guests. He really just gets on with his thing and really made the event that extra special and received a ton of complementary from some very happy guests. We would whole heartedly recommend."

"The performance of the mariachi band was truly exceptional in every way. Their music was beautifully arranged and skillfully played, showcasing their impressive musical talent and dedication to their craft. Every member of the band played with passion and energy, and their enthusiasm was infectious, spreading throughout the audience and creating an electric atmosphere. Furthermore, the mariachi band's ability to engage with the audience and bring them into the music was truly remarkable. They encouraged people to sing and dance along with them, and their warm and friendly personalities made everyone feel included and part of the celebration. The band's authentic style and traditional costumes added to the overall experience, transporting the audience to another time and place and immersing them in the rich cultural heritage of Mexican music. Their performance was nothing short of amazing, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a truly unforgettable musical experience."

"South West Funk were fantastic - they absolutely got the mood and vibe of our wedding, and the dance floor was so busy when they played. They absolutely surpassed our expectations. We are delighted we booked then, and will happily look to rebook for any events."

"We have had the great pleasure of having Nigel and his hugely talented jazz musicians perform for us at the Rye international jazz and blues festival on a number of occasions and I cannot recommend them more highly enough. The musicianship is first class and they have a very broad range of repertoire that suits all occasions and type of event These guys are consummate professionals and create a truly memorable and superb additional to any festival, corporate or private event I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again in the future."
