The fourth Wanganui Arts Festival, held in March 2004 hosted a supper cruise on the PS Waimaire, featuring Hot Club Sandwich. This was a sell-out cruise, enjoyed by a diverse group of patrons, relaxing and enjoying the eclectic sounds of Hot Club Sandwich. We would welcome the band back into the Wanganui Arts Festival any time". -Yvonne O’Connor, Wanganui Arts Festival "Book Hot Club Sandwich and audiences will love you for it. Whether it's Neil on the harmonica or the group as a whole pumping out toe-tapping rhythms, they bring energy and breeziness and you'll find audiences just wanting to get up and dance. A trio of truly professional musicians who deliver what they promise." Philip Tremewan, Festival Director, Tauranga Arts Festival, Wanaka Festival of Colour, Lake Taupo Arts Festival.
