Feedback...
IN REFLECTION...A HANDFUL OF LETTERS FROM THEIR FILES THROUGHOUT THE PAST 14 YEARS:
FOR DANCING
“Both Justine and I knew you all would be good, but not that good! You were all excellent and helped make our day so memorable. Thank you!”
“I am sure you get many favourable comments, but I can tell you there was a strong musical fraternity at the wedding and the comments getting back to us along the lines of ‘where did you get the band?’ were so numerous, we cannot list them all!”
“You were absolutely fantastic and extremely talented. We knew that we had chosen the right band for our reception!”
“We really enjoyed the evening and many of our guests commented on how good you all were. It’s not easy to cater to everyone’s musical tastes, but I think that you managed that admirably!”
“Woowee...you were just fantastic at our wedding. Our guests were on their feet straight away and never left the dance floor. Even when you’d finished playing they stamped their feet for one more encore!”
“It really was lovely to have such a multi-talented band playing for us on our wedding day and it made the evening just perfect; many people commented to us that we were very lucky indeed to have you - we agree.”
“Everyone was very impressed with the range, quality, energy and incredible enthusiasm of the performance”
“We really enjoyed the music you played and so many of our guests said how great you were - we saw people dancing that night that we didn’t think could!!!”
“You guys really rock, and everyone I’ve spoken to since has commented on just how good you were and how much they enjoyed it”
“Thanks again for your professionalism, enthusiasm and above all amazing talent…please pass on my appreciation to the rest of the band”
“So many people since have said to us that the band did us proud and really made the party happen – our crowd has never danced so much (& you can quote us on that!)”
FOR BACKGROUND MUSIC
“Your versatility was great – people could not believe it was you in the afternoon and the evening”
“Both the Jazz trio and the evening band were fantastic – by far the best band I have heard in a very long while”
“The inclusion in the first set of jazz numbers went down really well especially with the younger guests who normally get a diet of discos and groups rather than true professional musicians who can play all types of music”
“The background jazz, played during the meal, and the music played during the evening was exceptional”
AND OF JAMES, MD...EVENT LOGISTICS & MUSICAL DIRECTION WILL BE IN SAFE HANDS!
'It was a pleasure dealing with someone so professional during the weeks prior to the wedding'
'I am sure you must get hundreds of letters all saying the same thing, that your professionalism and adaptability is something quite remarkable, and together with that personal touch you give (James), this makes for a perfect combination.”
“Your professional attitude helped everything run smoothly and the wide range of music you played appealed to all the guests”
“A massive thank you to yourself (James) and the team”
“Allow yourself a quiet moment of satisfaction (James)”
