"Thank you so much! Everyone loved you and your band and I really appreciated the way you just seamlessly fitted in with our plans! The music really was just ripping and really set the tone for the whole evening! Young and old thought it was spot on. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone! "

"I hire this band on a monthly basis (at least) as I am the booking manager at The Cumberland and always enjoy listening to them. The singer has an incredibly pure voice and the musicianship they show as a unit is from the very top. They are a pleasure to work with."

"We booked the Through the Decades trio for a surprise party for my father’s 60th birthday. We were absolutely thrilled with the performance! The band contacted us beforehand to tailor the performance to the event, and they put together a fantastic show of 1940s music, and when we told them that the guest of honour was an RAF veteran, they suggested that they perform in RAF uniforms, which was a lovely touch. All three of the singers were wonderful. The performance was perfect, very slick and well choreographed, and they engaged the audience. On top of the outstanding quality of the group, they were also incredibly friendly and helpful, they were personable and professional when setting up, and they stayed after the show to take pictures with the guests and wish my father a happy birthday, which was just the icing on the cake. I really cannot overstate how impressed we were with the group, and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a vintage act to perform at an event."

"I would like to say that I feel privileged to have had Melisma performing at our retirement party. Everything about Melisma Jazz band was wonderful, they all looked very smart and professional and their performance was absolutley fantastic. Many asked where I had found them and others just thought I knew Sarah-Jane personally as she was so friendly! I cannot thank Melisma Jazz enough for making our event such a wounderful success, we will have lovely memories of the afternoon which seemed to end too soon - I just wanted them to play on and on! Thank you all so very, very much."

"Motown Memories and Ione performed at our wedding in June 2022 and they were absolutely fantastic. Ione is a great singer and the band are superb musicians - there were great guitar solos. At the end of the evening and following the wedding, so many of our guests told us that they thought they were a great wedding band, and the dancefloor was full for the whole evening. They responded and reacted to the crowd expertly. The set list was a great selection of genres and decades, enjoyed by 3 generations. Rhona, the band manager, was great to deal with before the wedding - she asked us questions, she shared an example set list, and she arranged for the first dance to be played."
