We hired Faith and her band for our annual holiday party and they made the night! Faith was fantastic to communicate with from the beginning. Before I booked, she offered a call to clarify my expectations and get a better understanding of our event. She was friendly and helpful and from that first phone call I knew that hiring her would be the right choice. She was available and responsive for any questions leading up to the event as well.
At our event, she and her band were professional and prepared and played a gorgeous combination of Christmas/ traditional jazz that our guests loved. They were incredibly talented and Faith’s voice is beautiful.
We will definitely be hiring Faith again!
Thank you Faith for making our event so special!
Faith and her crew were absolutely fantastic. Her voice is beautiful, and they really got the crowd engaged. Everyone at our event had an absolutely amazing time! Would not hesitate to book them again.
Faith was professional and delivered more than we expected at our zoom party. We would totally recommend her for any event!
Response from Faith Amour:

Faith is professional, energetic and a GREAT SINGER!
Response from Faith Amour:
Thanks so much Alex!! It was my honour to sing for you both :) Wishing you all the very best!!
She was professional and so sweet I will recommend her over and over.
wow - all 3 singers were very professional, polite and all 3 sang in PERFECT pitch. Beautiful tones - just stunning. Made the day.
These ladies were fantastic, very polite and full of energy. They truly made it feel like Christmas in our store. Many great comments from our customers as well.
The Arvelis Jazz Band was a pleasure to work with. The band was very professional and complimented our event nicely, as they were able to set the tone and allow our guests to mix and mingle easily throughout the theatre. Faith was very flexible and was able to work within our budget to achieve our desired sound. We would definitely use them at our next event!

Thank you so much for posting your review here and for having us at your event! We look forward to supporting your endeavours with beautiful jazz music in the future!
We had Faith Amour and the Arvelis Jazz Band play for an outdoor wedding and they were absolutely fantastic! Everyone in attendance sincerely loved the music and it created an incredible ambience to complete our night. Big thanks to Faith who took the time to meet with us ahead of time to plan everything in accordance with our wishes, including a special duet with a family member. Would highly recommend Faith and the Arvelis Jazz band to everyone! They were amazing.
I hired Faith to perform while I proposed to my girlfriend (now fiancée!) in the Distillery District. She brought along two amazing performers that perfectly created the atmosphere I had envisioned for the magic moment.
Faith was incredibly professional and easy to work with leading up to and during the event. The band performed beautifully with Faith's vocals being absolutely perfect, and she went above and beyond my expectations with extra details to make it a personalized, memorable experience. We will never forget it and I would highly recommend Faith Amour for any special events!
Faith performed 3 very personal songs, one which had a lyrical adjustment, during my wife Dawn's Celebration of Life. Faith captured the hearts of everyone with her genuine and loving renditions before 220 guests. It was musical perfection. Prior to her performance, Faith and I discussed song selection, venue particulars, timing of songs, and event themes. She prepared very professionally which included advance planning on site. Technology, dress, and sight lines were all considered. Faith's performance will always be remembered by those who shared in Dawn's Celebration of Life. Faith is a remarkable person, and her angelic voice is just one aspect of a person who has a deep conviction in caring human relationships. Faith's voice will always be heard in my memories.
I had the most memorable wedding my guests had ever been to and that was thanks in part to Faith Amour. From the moment you meet her you feel comfortable and confident that she will do her very best to give you her all on your big day. She is poised, professional and has one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard. Faith not only sings for your wedding, she entertains. She fills up the whole room with her songs and leaves your guests absolutely speechless. Thank you, Faith, for doing such a wonderful job for my husband and I this past June! You really went above and beyond!
Response from Faith Amour:
Melissa, it was an absolute honor to be a part of your wedding day. Thank you! You and your family were so welcoming, and in that incredible theatre I was just glad we could do your day justice with beautiful love songs. All the best to you both in your journey together!
Mine was a surprise and faith created a funny little story and character and kept the surprise going. She then she sung with a gorgeous voice.
As well as being extremely talented, she's reliable and professional
Response from Faith Amour:
What a fun evening! I'm so glad I got to be part of your surprise, thank you for entrusting this to me!
Faith has an absolutely beautiful voice. She did a wonderful job entertaining our residents and community members. They loved her performance and have continued to comment on it. Faith arrived with plenty of time to spare and was very professional. We would highly recommend Faith Amour.
Response from Faith Amour:
Thanks so much for the great review! We're so glad we could be a part of your community's delicious event - everyone was wonderful and you were so accomodating! Best of luck!
For Valentine's day, I wanted to do something special, unique and memorable for my girlfriend and I thought a singing telegram would be appropriate as a surprise! I came across Faith's website, listened to her tracks and knew she'd be perfect to sing a few love songs. She was professional, prepared and open to the surprise I had planned. She even picked up a few Valentine's related gifts (balloon, stuffed animal & chocolates) on her way to meet me! She had everything she needed to make the surprise a success and she went above and beyond my expectations for the event. She was flexible with the changes that were made at the last minute and she definitely made the experience a memorable one. Her voice and performance skills are amazing and I would definitely recommend her to anyone planning an event.
