I've booked Ellen et les Garçons three times as a duo for our Saturday night jazz evenings, and they have been fantastic every time! Extremely professional and self-contained, they brought their own PA system and set up discreetly, making everything seamless on our end. Their performance was a beautiful mix of well-known jazz standards and classic Italian and French hits from the 1950s. Guests absolutely loved it—many joined in, singing along and adding to the warm, family-like atmosphere. With songs performed in French, Italian, and English, they created a charming international, European vibe that made the evening feel unique and sophisticated. I would highly recommend Ellen et les Garçons to anyone looking to create a cozy, soulful night full of character and style!

Ellen and her band were absolutely incredible at our wedding ceremony! From our first interaction, Ellen was so easy to work with, answering all my (many!) questions with patience and warmth. She was super accommodating when I requested a special cover song that was really special to us. I mentioned to her how amazing it would be if they could play a song in my native language, and she actually offered to learn it! While we ended up sticking with songs in English, the fact that she was willing to go the extra mile shows her work ethic. Not only is Ellen an amazing singer, but she's also incredibly thoughtful and has great ideas. She and the band were incredible and I loved walking down the aisle to their music. It was clear they put a lot of thought and care into their performance. Ellen even wore an outfit that reflected my cultural heritage, which was such a touching gesture. You can tell Ellen is passionate about what she does and truly cares about creating the perfect experience for her clients. She's a true professional and we've already been recommending her to others. If you're looking for amazing musicians who will go above and beyond to make your special day unforgettable, then Ellen and her band are the perfect choice!
