"I have heard Catherine perform at so many different venues, including outdoor concerts, and her voice can penetrate any environment because it is so very movingly soulful yet in a jazz style. "

"Lost count of the number of friends who have called to tell me that was the best party they've been to in years, and that the Blues Brothers tribute made it! Thanks guys - you made me look really good :) lol Seriously, I was really impressed with your professionalism, equipment set up and organisation, and the show itself was awesome. Great songs, great vocals and as Chris said, "we're here for a good time, not a long time" Well, a very good time was had by all. Would definitely 100% recommend 106 Miles to Chicago."

"Straight Up are an amazing band and their performance at our celebration was nothing short of sensational. They are an extremely versatile band that can pretty much perform anything! All of our guests were blown away by the quality of their performance and they made our special day even more special. "

"To anyone who wants their party to go with a bang! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Funk N’ Soul excelled themselves at my birthday party last Saturday – they really made the evening for me. What was really brilliant about this band was that they had learned some of my old favourite songs specially for the evening and they brought the house down! They are all full time professional and very accomplished singers and musicians and really lovely, friendly folk too! It would seem that nothing is too much for them – they even played along with my youngest daughter who played Happy Birthday on her trumpet for me! They also looked like they were all having fun performing and the vibe in the marquee was so upbeat that no-one cared about the torrential rain outside! I would recommend them to anyone who wants to have a fantastic time! Thanks again guys for making my day! Love Sally"

"Bessie’s life in blues brought back to life. Some performers deserve to be known by more than their work. Bessie Smith won fame as Empress of the Blues in the 1020’s, but there was more to her life than money and fame. She died in 1937, but 80 years on a good sized crowd were held rapt at the Thunderbolt as Dave Merrick narrated her life story, from a ragged upbringing in the American South, with the help of original recordings. Bessie shot to fame because her unique vocal style could cut through the limitations of 1920s recording technology. But it was the live performances the Totterdown audience were waiting for, and Natalie Davis on vocals, with Dave on guitar and Brenan Whitmore on saxophone did not disappoint. Renditions of I Need A Little Sugar in my Bowl, and ‘Taint Nobodies Business If I Do made the magic of Bessie shine, from the slow paced blues of the 1920s to the syncopated swing of the 1930. . the show had the audience rapt. - Paul Breeden, South Bristol Voice (May 01, 2017)"

"The Mustangs were everything we had dreamed of. They totally looked the part, which really added to the whole atmosphere and aesthetics of our wedding. They were extremely easy to work with: polite, friendly, enthusiastic and easygoing. And most importantly they sounded fantastic; they put together a first dance medley upon request and we had so many positive comments from guests. The dance floor was rocking from start to finish. I would highly recommend The Mustangs for any occasion. Awesome!!"
