In visible Gem, are exactly that a group of Gems. The communication and performance were excellent. I had asked for a slightly different vibe 5 weeks prior to the event and they excelled my expectations. Thank you again in visible Gems x

Absolutely fantastic. Was quite a long way for the band to come but they got to the venue with plenty of time, set up with absolutely no hassle, lovely people, played the night away without an issue, happy, professional and very talented musicians. Would highly recommend.

Thank you so much for Saturday! It was absolutely marvellous. I haven’t stopped telling people what a wonderful set you put on. It was a fantastic mix of folk/gypsy/Balkan sounds (I think that’s how I can describe it!). Thank you, you really ended the stage on such a high! I hope you are booked for bigger gigs as you really know how to get the crowd going. X

I saw In Visible Gem at a packed anti-fracking benefit gig in Glastonbury, supporting Seize the Day in 2017.Even though they were the first band on and it was pretty early in the evening they had the whole audience dancing !They play an exciting mixture of full tilt Irish tunes, Gypsy melodies, and original material tinged with Afro- Brazilian rhythms.Bold soaring fiddle,(Lela can play anything!) tight complex acoustic guitar,formidable cajon and soulful vocals created a rousing musical feast!I wholeheartedly reccomend them!
