"An amazing band! They produced a superb comprehensive sound of such good quality and clarity. Each of the 3 musicians that performed for our birthday party are evidently extremely talented with plenty of charisma. They are evidently so skilful and produced such a kaleidoscope of stunning sound quality. They were also extremely helpful in corresponding by text, email and a phone conversation. These guys created such a good atmosphere, managing to draw a good number of our guests on to the dance floor who were having such a good time! All our guests were commenting on how brilliant they were. I just wish their performance could have continued for several hours more!!" (E. Eriz)


"A high-energy, incredibly versatile band performing every genre and style with an outstanding line-up. They nail everything from Pop, Jazz, Latin, Soul, Motown and many more. I hire The Bumblebees regularly several times per month, our clients love them! Their performance is absolutely fantastic, keeping everyone dancing and engaging the audience for the whole of the show duration. Entirely professional and working both as a full band and as a smaller ensemble, they truly show how capable they are as entertainers. I will strongly recommend them, without hesitation, for any private event, wedding or celebration" (G. Trakimaite)


"Bumble Bees band are a vibrant crew of experienced, charismatic, friendly and enthusiastic musicians. They were exceptionally engaging with the crowd for all their performance; from the early dinner set where it was required to play at a conversational volume level throughout the second part of the night where everyone was feeling the more energetic grooves and melodies while singing along some classics rearranged in a modern and sophisticated style. We had a beautiful party, everyone loved the band, the kids and the grown up were all dancing. It was all beautiful vibes. So I strongly recommend Bumble Bees band for their professionalism and friendliness" (L. Church)


"This is the second time we have booked The Bumble Bees and, as with the first occasion, they did not disappoint. Despite restricting them to a far smaller area than they are used to they rose to the occasion captivating everyone with their tunes. I had to intervene at the end to quell the tide of Encore requests as I truly believe they'd still be here now! Thoroughly recommended!" (C. Noel)


"Our experience with The Bumblebees has been brilliant - our guests thoroughly enjoyed the relaxed feel of the jazz trio set during our wedding reception drinks. Lovely group and wonderful music to set a beautiful mood, not too loud so that guests could dance and chat. They were very flexible with a very wide range of music they were able to play. The band arrived in very good time to make sure they were there well ahead of time and checked out with us beforehand. I would strongly recommend this band. Thank you so much!" (W. Suleiman)


"Bumblebees quite frankly made our evening. It was very easy to organise timings with them in the run up to our event; the booking process was so easy and they were a pleasure to deal with. They were also incredibly accommodating on the evening regarding their sets and their performances. Besides, they were fully prepared regarding their own equipment and the performance was phenomenal, they were able to provide just the right atmosphere for the event! You will not be disappointed with them. An easy 5/5." (L. Petite)
