La Ferme RestaurantThe band were fantastic, the perfect accompaniment to our summer house warming drinks party. Our staff and guests were hugely complimentary and commented on how well they added to the atmosphere of the evening! They were also very easy to work with and true professionals – the band arrived on time, were well turned out, set up quickly and packed away without fuss. We have no hesitation in recommending them!
Joe and Faith
Private PartyThe Gypsy Jazz Trio were the perfect band for our wedding and many guests commented on how great they were! Their choice of music was exactly what we wanted and their interaction with myself and my husband on the day was great, checking that the volume of the music was ok and asking if we were happy with everything. We also found the booking process very smooth. We couldn’t have been happier with everything.
