"Francesca and Flora are fiercely passionate about their music and its a passion that they effortlessly communicate to their audience. They are a winning and magical admixture of instrumental excellence, captivating playing and singing ability, delectable stage presence, supremely well chosen eastern european repertoire and matchless original tunes... This a string duo bound for glory."

"I just wanted to email to let you know how fantastic I thought you all were on Sunday. From the first time Paul showed me your wesbite, to seeing you perform a sample set many months ago, I knew you guys would be outstanding and you definitely lived up (and surpassed) my expectations. Sera, your solo song ‘Ive Dreamed of You’ during the ceremony was incredibly moving. The string quartet and the pianist were pure class, all three sets from MIB were perfect and uplifting, Lindsays’ Budda Bar sax set was amazing and the rock set certainly rocked the Langham! Everyone I spoke to throughout the night commented on the music and how fantastic you all were. There was something for everyone and it was a delight to see the dance floor full all night long. After months of planning the day flew past so quickly but the memories will last a lifetime. I cannot wait to see the video footage later this summer. Thank you for making Paul and Amy’s day so memorable."

"We booked The Chandeliers for a special event we were hosting at a cinema- they were superb. Despite giving them a lot of information at the last minute, they were flexible and forthcoming and really had our audience dancing and cheering. I'd highly recommend them to anyone!"

"Thank you so much for a wonderful evening at our wedding on 16th July. We were blown away by the music and your energy. Many of our family said that they hadn't danced like that for years! We couldn't think of a more perfect band for our wedding evening, dancing the night away. We were so happy to see everyone enjoying the music and dancing as much as we were. As I am sure you could tell from our faces - we absolutely loved it. Thank you for such a fun, lively and joyful evening!"

"One of the hidden treasures of London is the range of talent that exists on the folk and acoustic scene that rarely get the acclaim they deserve. Three London based bands that excel at performing Eastern European/Balkan Music are Szapora, Mukka and Beskydy, each of whom are worth looking out for. Nine strong Beskydy perform songs and tunes from across Eastern Europe and beyond, in fact looking at the sources on their cd listing is almost like a tour around that part of Europe, from Macedonia to Hungary via Galicia and Bulgaria and taking a detour through Slovakia. The bands name itself comes from the range of mountains that run through the centre of former Czechoslovakia which according to the band has heavily influenced their musical choices whilst they turn their hand to music from a range of sources (excellantly). The first track is a Macedonian song, Jovano, Jovanke (click here to hear the song) and the range of Joanna Fosters vocal skills are further displayed in the three Slovakian songs that make up track 4, from the slow Janosik to the more up beat cheery Anicka Dusicka and A Ja Taka Dzivocka although Foster and the band manage to intertwine the tunes with sufficient skill so the songs merge as one. Again Track 9 is a duet with Accordian player, Peter Murphy, joining Foster on the Macedonian song Iz Dolu, along with some damned fine fiddling. The range of Beskydys musical skills are illustrated well by the instrumental tracks ranging from the delightful Slovakian Waltzes (Track 5) to the slightly more manic Tropanka from Bulgaria (track 10) and onto the ordered upbeat and furious synthesis between sax, fiddle and accordian that is Tantz, Tantz Yiddelekh (a wonderful Galician Jewish tune), yet again garunteed to result in limb movement, a delightful fusion of fiddles and saxaphone, furiously creating a wonderful atmosphere one that demands a physical response. One very minor complaint is the sleeve of the CD, it would be nice (or do I just lead a very shallow empty life) to have some information/lyrics or even translations of the songs, something about the origins of the tracks. That said its more than possible for bands with large bank accounts to produce nice extensive sleeves but not so easy for bands whose talents lie in their music rather than some slick marketing agencies. It would be impossible to identify one part of this cd that could be said to stand out more than the rest. The band have produced an album that is thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish - the question that comes to the fore when listening to this is when is the follow up going to be available?"

"The singer that came was absolutely fantastic and knew how to work the crowd, so much so that everyone was aching the next day due to the fact that they didn’t want to leave the dance floor with the great songs that she kept singing!!"

"We used last minute musicians to book acoustic two and I have to say it was all great - there's a bit of an odd silence after you've confirmed where you wonder if they're really coming but everything else is flawless and acoustic two are the best guys, really talented and lovely :) I'd book again in an instant, they made my wedding exactly what I wanted!"

"We saw Mozzle Brocha last Wednesday at the Landsdown and had a fabulous night. Wonderful music to bring joy to any day. Marianna is a charismatic lead singer, beautiful to listen to. Looking forward to seeing them again and if I have a party at any point I will definitely be booking them."
