"The NVJQ were informative, professional, and obviously love what they do; Andy even got my music students singing along. Would love to have them back anytime and would highly recommend them to any group that wants to further their understanding of the jazz idiom.

“Our guests were absolutely delighted with the sounds of the New Vibes Jazz Quartet. Your music was a great addition to our festive, yet sophisticated atmosphere. The group was engaging, professional, easy to work with, and flexible to our schedule – not to mention, extremely talented musicians. You really brought a great ‘vibe’ to our fundraiser!”

"Just want to say that the Friday night music was WONDERFUL!!!!! Thank you so much. It really livens up the café."

Margaret O'Shea Bonner, Queen Street Commons Cafe, Working Centre

as part of the Registry Theatre Jazz Series, 2007

"I don't know what I enjoyed more about this great evening - the terrific music-making these four guys created, or the wonderful relationship that they clearly enjoyed onstage throughout their show. There are very few vibes players around that inspire me the way that Andy Macpherson does with the creative lines that he weaves. Andy, Tom, Dan and Gary put me in a mood that I definitely did not want to leave that night! Way to go, guys!"

Larry Larson, first trumpet, K-W Symphony

After a wedding reception, 2007:

after a house concert (2006)

"Recently, for a very special celebration at our home, we booked the New Vibes Jazz Quartet. Along with their exceptional musicianship, the NVJQ established an easy rapport with our guests and provided just the right balance of sophistication and fun. People still talk about that party and our 'house band' - the New Vibes Jazz Quartet."

Ann and Mark Clare, Cambridge

from the Homer Watson House and Gallery (2005)

The NVJQ "has worked for Homer Watson House & Gallery on several occassions providing musical entertainment at special events, openings, and receptions. Andy has always provided high quality work in a professional and business-like manner. His skills as a musician are superior and his reviews from visitors and guests are always positive... the best entertainment Homer Watson House & Galery has had the privilege of signing."
