"Lachie and his team absolutely made our wedding day into such a special event. Lachie worked with me for months before the big day to develop a playlist and overall vibe for the ceremony and reception drinks. He understood what we wanted and delivered on the day. Thanks Lachie!"

Everyone was so thrilled and impressed with the band, and had nothing but the best things to say about you. You were professional, prepared, and amazing-and we couldn't have asked for anything more! Thank you again, Nick and Lara"

"We were both extremely impressed by the band and really enjoyed the music. Even more telling was the number of comments we had from guests as we walked around during the reception. The band is extremely talented and the music they played for us was perfect. They played two songs for us that weren't on their regular set list, and both were great. We were really pleased with their performance and professionalism. Anybody who likes well played gypsy, Dawg, or music that isn't cookie cutter will love these guys."

"We had a Jazz trio for our wedding reception in a stretch tent and the music perfectly complemented the relaxed vibe and rural setting. Professional throughout, from booking to the end of the event. I would happily recommend. "

"Matthew, what can I say about the band. Firstly, everyone at the party has commented on the amazing atmosphere you all created from the moment you stepped onto the stage. I knew that you would be good as obviously I had watched your performances on your site, but what I wasn’t prepared for was the utter joy that your performance would give to everyone who was there including the staff at the hotel! The music choices were perfect, the vocals and commentary perfect and the feeling that I couldn’t have booked anyone better a delight. I know my father really enjoyed his night and has sung your praises far and wide. You all made the night truly fabulous and I cannot thank you enough for it. I hope to book you all again for future functions and obviously will let everyone know just how incredible your band is. Once again please give my thanks to the whole band, they were absolutely amazing."

"Hi Stevie, Thank you so much for your performance at our fathers 80th birthday. It was fantastic; you truly made a lasting memory for us all as a family, and one that won’t be forgotten. You totally finished us off with “My Way”. There were tears! You should be highly recommended by any agency that has signed you up. I’m sure we’ll see you again. "

"Just unbelievable! This Band made our holiday unforgettable! We are still getting feedback from guests all over the world! The combination of a cover band and a jazz band-Big Band, gave us the feeling of Las Vegas and a dance club at the same time. The singers sang in all languages of the world, real professionals, it was as if we had been at the world's best concerts, and all this was presented in one team - Diamond Rain Show. Special Thanks to Rem Fleming For take our party as his personal!"

"Review of Trilby - The liner notes inform us that this ensemble started as a swinging dance band in 2005. Since then, they've evolved into a solid, well-arranged outfit with first rate solos played by intriguing, skilled jazz cats. The feeling I derived from the CD was similar to a classic Blue Note session. You know, several well-written originals that are melodically strong, and a few standards to test the players' chops on familiar material. The co-leaders play flugelhorn and trombone, respectively. Most of the arrangements come from pianist Bill Dobbins, who allows plenty of room for free-swinging solo work. The familiar vehicles here include Benny Golson's "Stablemates" and Sonny Stitt's "Eternal Triangle." I also spotted a tune called "Rich's Call" by Kerry Strayer, a baritone player of the highest stripe, and a skilled composer and arranger as well. It is interesting to note three compositions from jazz harmonica whiz, Hendrik Meurkens. Perhaps he has some connection to the band. Finally, it should be said that this session is directed straight down the middle of the bop highway. Simply an outstanding blowing session on songs that, amazingly enough, sound like songs!"

"From the very beginning Rock Tonight were just excellent. Laura was the person I was in contact with most and her response time was super quick. She was always very reassuring and accommodating and the band helped make the wedding day run so smoothly. I really enjoyed the covers that we'd asked them to learn and the whole band had such a wonderful presence. Loved their set list and the performance on the night of the wedding was fantastic. Lots of guests were asking how we found Rock Tonight and we're very glad we did! She's got a great voice, the band's sound was exactly what we wanted and really helped the energy on the wedding. I couldn't recommend them enough!"
