Testimonials

“Hola! Just to say a massive thank you to you and the band last Friday! You were totally awesome and the bride and groom loved the vibe….. The tunes you chose were awesome and the extra bit at dinner was sublime. The Killers cover you chose is a special song between me and my daughter, we call that ‘our song’……how wonderful you covered that and didn’t know! You can’t go wrong with Beatles either as you probably found out my husband is an avid fan! Well I hope we see you again in the future and I can promise you I will recommend you to everyone I know!

Many thanks again…. “

“I just wanted to thank you so much for playing at the wedding on Saturday. We did not tell anyone that you were going to be there so it was a lovely surprise and everyone thought you were great. Thank you for making a special day even more special and I know it will be talked about for years to come.”

Judy

“The Worshipful Company of Dyers held a Ladies Dinner at the Grocers’ Hall in the City of London last week and Pablo and five of his musicians entertained us. The group certainly has the “wow” factor with the splendid costumes, sombreros and variety of instruments. The music was great with everyone joining in the infectious rhythms – a complete change from the conventional background music on these occasions! They were a delight to deal with and we thoroughly recommend them.”
