Trio: guitar/vocals, drums and trumpet Davide and friends were perfect for our corporate event. Brilliant performers, and the music was exactly what we were looking for - a really great vibe. Communicative, flexible and easy to deal with too. Thanks again - would definitely recommend!

Those guys were incredible. They played acoustic music, chilled and groove at the same time. I would totally recommend anyone to book "Partido Alto" for their private party or event. Niyi Jegede
