QUOTES & RECOMMENDATIONS
“Puravida were absolutely fantastic and the standard of the musicians was superb. Even now, some months later, people comment on how great the band was. Everyone loved the variety of music, but most of all the real feel-good, top quality sound that we were looking for. We couldn't recommend them highly enough." Peter Simpson, University of West of England (private client in Bath, 2004)
“I had to email...and say this. We had such a great time with the band on the 29th October for the wedding. We can’t say enough how much we loved the music and all the band were superb. It’s easy to enjoy such professionalism and superb music. Every minute. Everyone at the wedding I’ve since spoken to and a lot while we were there, were really impressed and enjoyed it to the utmost… I can’t thank you enough for putting so much into the sets.” Steve and Gemma Peters (Wedding October 2005)
“Puravida…bring music, energy and enthusiasm that transport you across the Atlantic with latin rhythms to inspire you to listen and dance…Fantastic!” George Ferguson, Tobacco Factory, Bristol
