Event Testimonials

Calico recently performed at our Conference Partners’ Dinner at Skyline, Queenstown. Our delegates loved the relaxed atmosphere John & Gemma created for dinner and were more than eager to hit the dance floor when they upped the tempo! With the perfect variety of relaxed music and classic sing-a-longs, all 175 delegates were kept very entertained. John and Gemma were so easy to work with and I would not hesitate in recommending their event band for any function, corporate or otherwise.

After working closely with Calico Entertainment for over 5 years they are now Future Bars ‘go to’ Entertainment providers. Off the stage they are an absolute pleasure to work with, relaxed, knowledgable, and efficient, then once on the stage they are simply superstars. There ability to adapt to the crowd is for me their biggest strength, I have booked them for acoustic chilled Cocktail Evenings, and then bring the house down Wedding Receptions. Super talented, extremely popular, and most certainly recommended.
