Sounds LikeRant are a group of young and very talented performers who have used their own flair and skills to workout some wonderful arrangements to all sorts of music from Celtic to Russian to Classical bits and lots more. The ease in which they do this is a credit to them and their obvious love of the music and performing. I will book them again with anticipation and without hesitation. -Mel Robertson, Melbourne Folk Club
