Reviews
We had a fantastic experience working with Better Band and Je for our AGM dinner. He was an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to finish, with excellent communication, seamless setup and all his own equipment, making the process incredibly easy for us. Our attendees gave fantastic feedback on the music and said Je created the perfect atmosphere and vibe for the evening. We would highly recommend Je for any event and would definitely book him again!

Je!! You guys were amazing. I’m so sorry it was cold and your hands were freezing but you really made our night. The whole band was amazing and we got so many compliments for you. Honestly we couldn’t have asked for better. For a group of musicians to want to dance to you guys all night, you guys nailed it! COULD NOT BE HAPPIER. IT WAS PERECT. Thank you for everything. Will send your name to everyone one we know. I also think we got some photos so will send those to you too!! Let’s keep in touch! Especially if you or any of your band are in LA. Muito Obrigado, Anderson xx

We recently used Je Marco in Queenstown for a conference dinner and it worked perfectly. Je Marco played a great selection of music that suited all ages and it was not too loud so delegates could still talk at the dinner table. Je Marco was friendly and even had delegates getting up and singing with him. I would certainly use him again and highly recommend him.

Je Marco played at our wedding and it was fantastic! Such a great vibe, he did exactly what we asked for… to have a mix of Brazilian music with English songs
He is literally the best and did exactly as we envisioned for our big day! Highly recommend

Better Band has been amazing to deal with right from the start. Je Marco was absolutely outstanding, and we had so many comments on how talented he is! The DJ Sam was also fantastic and kept the dance floor going right to the end. We really can’t thank you enough!

We’re still smiling… you are incredible Je, Thank you so much again for sharing the best day of our lives with us 
one of our favourite moments of the day was walking back up the hill after the cocktail hour when it was just the two of us, and you were playing that song.
