Booked for Christmas party

A Memorable Night with Ciro – The Perfect Christmas Party Band! We recently had Ciro perform at our work Christmas party, and they absolutely nailed it! From the moment they started playing, the energy in the room was electric. Their incredible talent, versatility, and charisma made the night unforgettable for everyone. Ciro’s setlist was perfectly curated to suit all tastes, blending classic holiday tunes with crowd-pleasing hits that had everyone up and dancing. They transitioned seamlessly between genres, showcasing their skill and keeping the party atmosphere alive all night. Beyond their music, the band was an absolute pleasure to work with—professional, friendly, and accommodating to all our needs. If you’re looking for a band that will not only entertain but truly elevate your event, look no further than Ciro. Highly, highly recommended... can’t wait to book them again for future events!

Booked for Wedding

Amazing doesn't sum up how great Giulia and the lizards Duo were. Accommodated to our needs. Exchanged loads of messages and a couple of phone calls to make sure all was good. All our guests commented how great they are and have asked about them since. Definitely recommend. We hope to book them again one day.

Booked for Wedding

"We really could not be happier, thank you so much for performing at our wedding in Topsham. Thoroughly recommend to anyone (I just wish we could give more than 5 stars) and look forward to listening to your CD! Absolutely lovely people and fabulous voices, suited our small venue very well. Dave made all the organisation very easy and gave us lots of choices prior to the Wedding. Thanks again!!"

Booked for Celebration

Paul n Jennie were great at what they do best and kept us entertained. Just for future reference I would've suggested they were more interactive with the audience and had the audience more involved.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
