"Your gig at the Thaxted Festival was special - the best of the bands that have played for us in recent years. What attracted me when I listened to your CD last year was its variety, contrast and freshness; your key players are all impressive individually, but I also liked the precision and balance of the Band playing together as a group. All of this came fully across in your live performance, plus the bonus of seeing how much you all enjoyed each other's playing. You also found just the right level of amplification (not too much!) for the friendly acoustic of our beautiful Church. You must come again! "

"I have only positive feedback for you guys and for Kate and accompanist. Everything that we arranged went to plan and the duo on the day were absolutely brilliant. They are both a great talent. Many people commented how much they enjoyed Kate and Kristian and some musician friends were commenting on how amazing Kristians guitar playing was. All in all it was a great success!"

"Lauren sings with poise, swing, impeccable time and recognises humour and irony in a lyric... She is the natural successor to Blossom Dearie, Anita O'Day, Etta Jones, Ella and Carmen... and is the best export from Canada since Diana Krall, Joni Mitchell and pure mountain air."

"Camino Sonoro - gorgeous in every way! They were so tight together and have such a wonderful fee - and they even let me sing a couple of numbers with them! So many guests commented on how fantastic they all were and how beautiful Hetty's voice is. Thank you Camino Sonoro! XXX"

"“You were really great and everyone loved your music! For late night lindy we wanted a band to play a variety of tempos ranging between 130 and 180 bpm with the majority of the set staying around the 130-160 mark. We also wanted the odd one or two songs to be played at the higher end of the tempo spectrum, somewhere between 180 and 230 bpm. Ideally we didn’t want each performance to exceed the 4 minute duration because most of our crew are still building up their stamina. Swing Gitan met all our requirements and made an enormous contribution to a fantastic night. We can’t wait to get them back again.” "

"Nothing was too much trouble and the musicians were all fantastic. The dance floor was full all night and so many people have said to me that they loved the music and had never danced so much in a long time! I would absolutely recommend the BV's!"

"Doesn't time fly by! Two weeks today since we got married and you came along to keep us entertained. It was an amazing day and you and your band contributed immensely. From the moment I contacted you I knew we had made the right choice. Your communication and understanding was excellent. Our 1930s theme fit right in with the venue and your style of music. We received lots of comments from our guests about how lovely it was to sit on the lawn drinking Pimms listening to you play whilst we were off having photos taken. It was so relaxing and elegant. Like being on a film set, one guest said. I think what made it for me was when all the guests had gone inside to sit down for the meal and we were passing some hotel guests sitting on the terrace enjoying the sun. As I walked passed one gentleman starting clapping and commented how beautiful I looked and thanked me for providing such wonderful music that he had enjoyed listening to; a real unexpected pleasure. In fact the venue told me the following day that quite a few hotel guests had commented on the great music. The evening was astounding. In the DJ sets you provided between Dr Jazz's live sessions you managed to fit in all our guests' special songs. This made it a lot more personal. And thank you so much for rearranging one of your songs to fit in with the routine we had learned for our first dance. This just shows how versatile and amenable you are. We would like to thank you for coming and making our wedding day most enjoyable, not just for us but for our guests. I have already been recommending you and will continue to do so."
