"Well, where can I start! From initially stumbling upon Dr Jazz and realising that there was something rather special about their approach and unique sound, to the very first email and phone calls to discuss our plans for the day, all the way through to our Wedding day itself - Dr Jazz and company were brilliant. Helpful, friendly, and wonderfully entertaining, we could not have asked for anything more. The set itself was fantastic - we were blown away with how much of an impact they made, not only in terms of everyone feeling the urge to get up to dance (which was a slight worry for us before the day!), but also with their spot on interaction with the guests, and overall management and ownership of the evening. We really knew we'd made the right decision as soon as the first note was played – talk about creating a spectacle!! In terms of a front man Matthew is absolutely superb, and his supporting crew of brilliantly talented musicians helped make our day one to remember for both us and our guests. Thank you all so very much for everything. We know what it's like trying to find the 'right band', ourselves having trawled through many hundreds of sample tracks from other people and groups, and the worries that come with it regarding whether people will like it, whether it'll be well received etc. The best advice I can honestly give is that if you are sitting there reading this review, and you have enjoyed the sample tracks you've listened to, then please don't hesitate to book these guys. You will not regret it, and you and your guests will certainly never forget it. They were nothing short of marvellous. Once again we wanted to say thank you very much for everything - we really had a fantastic time, as did everyone else in attendance, and it is all thanks to you and your crew. You certainly made the evening, if not the day for us, and we are so pleased and lucky to have been able to book you to play for us. You were nothing short of brilliant, and we can't stop talking or thinking about how amazing you were (and nor can anyone else!) It was so lovely to meet you all in person. All the best for the future, and please rest assured that we'll be singing your praises for the years to come!"

"We were delighted with Benoit and the band, and the way they swung so smoothly through swing into blues and rock-a-billy, and back again, and very much enjoyed the way in which they engaged with the audience.. Everyone in the room had a blast!"

"The singer, Amy, confided to the audience at one point that it was her prerogative to steer the set at her whim, keeping the rest of the band on their toes. And so they moved from bossanova to a favourite ballad and back again via bluesy tunes and toe tapping swing. This she did with seemingly effortless style, and her colleagues were more than up to the challenge. Her voice is beautiful, expressive, powerful. She can deliver heartbreak in like three notes. This quartet of talented professionals works great together. I think the whole audience left with massive grins on their faces."

"The irony generation now get something to chew on while the unprejudiced youth can enjoy a superfresh, slightly rude, in-your-face trad. band with a grin lurking and samba licks in their pockets. There is buckets of charm, a delightful brew of brimming horns with pure party! "

"Friday night was awesome. The band were brilliant, and everybody really enjoyed the music and thought they were excellent. They started off the ball with a very classy bang! Thank you for recommending them, and for your help in liaising with the band and answering my many queries!"

"Thank you so much for your email. We wanted to write you as well and thank you and your band so much for the beautiful music as well as playing the Jewish numbers. Your gig set the perfect tone for our wedding and our guests were also full of praise. Our only regret is that we could not listen to you more! Thank you also for being so flexible about the timings as we were running behind our schedule."

"I have had so many people come up to me both last night and this morning saying how great the band were and asking me to pass on their appreciation."

"These guys were absolutely fantastic. They were organised, helpful, provided their own AV equipment, and were very flexible amongst many changing plans And the music was phenomenal. They were so good at reading the room and the tone of each part of the event. They had everyone up dancing! Amazing, definitely my swing/jazz band of choice for any future events."

"Joel and Ben came to a golf day at Old Ford Manor and provided great jazz music at the evening event. Jazz music for all tastes, really good entertainment!"

"We had The Tzigauners play as a trio at the drinks reception of our wedding this summer (2017) - and I am so glad I made the decision to have them perform. The music and resulting ambience was exactly what I wanted. Alex, our contact, was excellent in coming back to me with email responses to my questions before the event and came across as very relaxed and happy to go with the flow on the day, which calmed me down a lot. Would thoroughly recommend for any event. "

"I would just like to say how fantastic Kai was at the Christmas concert at the Southampton general hospital, we had the wow factor from start to finish, so professional and every single patient was given the treat of a lifetime, many thanks to the kai and the band, I can’t wait to have the privilege to see them again hopefully sometime."
