The band delivers outstanding, interesting and engaging performances at every event and is sought after for their pleasant professionalism, adaptive musicianship, careful aesthetics, and ability to entertain all ages.

"The search for a band for our bar and restaurant was not easy...until we met Ruby Collective! Their repertoire is extensive, stylish and probably the best I have heard for a very long time. The modern touch given to their jazz music as well as the personality of each musician has transformed the atmosphere of our bar. They are very talented and will always bring something special to the place they play."

"Having you play at our wedding was definitely one of the highlights of our day. You gave us the perfect first dance - honestly, if Eric Clapton had come and performed for us it could not have been better! You gave the evening a very personal touch and many of our guests commented on your style and talent. The level of professionalism you all displayed throughout was outstanding: very sophisticated and engaging performances in the early evening which really set the mood. Then, later on, once again you gave us some fantastic music to really get up and dance to- an all-round incredible performance. I feel very privileged to have had you play on our special day. Thank you so much - I genuinely could not have chosen better music or musicians! I highly recommend to anyone looking for a band - they will dazzle you."

"We just wanted to say a (belated) thank you to you for being our wedding band at the end of March. You were spectacular, all our guests were enamoured with you! Everyone kept asking who you were and where we found you, they were truly, truly incredible. They definately made the evening, every single one of our guests danced, and were so disappointed when they announced their final song! We would highly recommend you to anyone for any function! And I am sure in the future people will be asking us to remind them of your name for their parties!"
