  2. booked Matt Wates Trio for a wedding

    Verified

    We booked Matt, Nigel and Julian to play at our wedding. It is clear that they are exceptional jazz musicians. True masters of their craft, they entertained our guests all evening with sublime jazz music, the quality of which cannot be overstated. They were also adaptable: they played a relaxed background style to accompany our dinner and then were able to transition to something more lively later on as our guests sought to dance. All in all, these guys were talented, polite and professional. We would not hesitate to book again.

  3. booked Sunsplash - A Bass Odyssey. Tribute to the legends of Reggae. for a birthday party

    Verified

    Very flexible working around the DJ and event planner. Lovely performance with selection of familiar reggae songs. The first half captured guest attention and it fitted lovely into the evening celebrations. The second half unfortunately didn't go too well because the artist decided to reallocate his equipment during our evening celebrations. This resulted in continued loud feedback which was uncomfortable for the guest. My DJ had to make a sudden decision to play his music to recapture the fun of the evening. The artist was very apologetic and it was disappointing that the guest had lost interest (which was some of their feedback to me and unfortunately had been recorded within our video capturing the evening celebrations). I would recommend not to make any changes during an event because the sound checking had already been done before guests had arrived. It was a shame we didn't get to see the second half as planned. The first half was great.

    We booked Gianluigi for my daughter's wedding in London. His playing was fantastic and so well matched with the event.

He is a very talented musician and a lovely person to work with. Many thanks again. Highly recommend.
