"It was an absolute pleasure and delight meeting you on Saturday, you completely blew me away with expectations. I know that you had not had the best of weeks prior to Saturday, but please don’t let peoples opinions or actions define who you are as a person, or your passion. You are extremely talented and is a gift. So many people came to me and said how amazing you are! "If you are considering hiring Rory for your event 100% do it. Rory played at our wedding and completely blew us and our guests away, such a talent. Before our wedding we collaborated on what vibe we wanted to set, songs, some surprises for our guests and Rory completely understood the assignment and just continued to surprise and bring pure joy. Rory made our wedding the most magical, joyous and beautiful experience possible."

Hi Lyndsey, Sorry to hear you’ve not been feeling great, although I can understand with the wedding and everything, with all the preparation and seeing so many people from your life in one go, it can be emotionally and physically draining. Do take plenty of rest and care of yourself. You deserve it! Thank you so much for your wonderful testimonial, really, it means the world to me! As you know, I had such joy contributing to your special day and I really appreciate your kindness and the energy of everyone at The Merlin. Thanks also for your understanding, Sarah-Jane was very supporting, she said that this wedding was what I needed right now, and like you said it was meant to be! It was great spending some time in Manchester again! It was a fantastic event, a true pleasure to be a part of, and feel free to give SJ a shout if you need any help with any future events. Many thanks and have a wonderful Christmas. All the best for 2025! Cheers Rory

"Ike and band played for us last Saturday (birthday party with 20 guests). They arrived on time, set everything up and played amazingly well, including our guests' wish list. They played even longer than we had booked them for (3x45min). I highly recommend the trio and happily book them again for the next event. 10/10”"

"Saw your show at Kings Lynn last night, to say we were pleasantly surprised would be putting it mildly. purchased your CD so can listen again and again, thanks for a great evening."

"Mary performed at Villa Batalha Hotel, Portugal last 24th September for the Miles of Mystery event. The guests and the event managers had no other words rather than fantastic, great and engaging to say about Mary's show. In my opinion Mary, more than a talented multitasking artist is a humble and kind person. She just reads the audience’s mood and ensures unique moments when she plays her endless repertoire. You can tell she has Blues and Jazz and many other music genres in her voice! I am very happy to have found her and for being able to get more people to know her work. Mary never gives anything less than 110% in every aspect of her job and I invite you to witness this in person."

Thanks Steve! It was great to play for you again!

"Latina Carnivale has definitely got that magic ingredient – the one that makes or breaks a Latin band. I’m sure you know what I mean. Anyone who dances salsa and the like knows that some bands play very well technically, but they just haven’t got it – the magic ingredient that forces you to move your body, to forget everything and get out there on the floor."

"Verity really stole the show at our wedding! We wish we`d booked her for longer now. Have already recommended to a friend who is getting married this winter! Thanks again!"

"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."

"I had a Brazil/carnival themed 30th Birthday and Travessia were the highlight of the party! Both sets matched the vibe perfectly and all the guests were so complimentary! They were so kind, accommodating & professional and really helped make my party a huge success! I would 100% recommend hiring Travessia to play at any event and want to say another big thank you to them for helping make my birthday so special with music that honours my roots and played so beautifully!"
