James is extremely talented, has a huge repertoire to suit all ages and we enjoyed his singing and musicality immensely. Thank you again, as James not only sang at our wedding but lately at my husband's 70th party. I would thoroughly recommend. We hope to find another excuse to book James soon!

Wow what a fantastic night we had with James celebrating mine and my husband 60th birthday and also our 10th wedding anniversary. James came in playing his guitar and singing "More than Words", to our family, this was a lovely way to start the night and was a beautiful way as my husband and family had no idea. James spent over 3 hours singing to us, getting us up dancing , his lights were fantastic and his choices of songs would suit young to old , would highly recommend James , from start to end James was available to chat and help in anyway , but say this was a garden party and honestly family couldn't believe how this night went and how James entertained us all , we are still talking about it and thinking of making it a annual thing , thankyou

James was absolutely fantastic from the moment I first got in touch with him. Very responsive and accommodating prior to the event (despite the request being on short notice) and, on the day of the party he played the perfect acoustic set. He was very professional, friendly and great fun. Would highly recommend him!

They say the hardest thing for a performer is to play to an audience full of other performers. That is exactly what we booked James for last Friday night. His audience was made up of musical theatre actors, singers and dancers. What really stood out to me was the flexibility that James showed on the night. He did a few songs in the first set and then started changing things up. Once he found the genre of songs that got the audience singing and dancing, he never looked back. The evening went from strength to strength as James mixed in tracks from shows like Les Misérables, Oliver! and Beauty and the Beast. In the numbers where the lead singers from these shows was in the audience, he shared the microphone, and the duets brought the house down. No one wanted it to end, so we asked James to do a third set during which he was totally in tune with the audience. Between the signing and the laughter, he had the whole group in the palm of his hand. Well done James! You can book him with confidence

Hi James, A big thank you from the 40 year old . I am sorry I could not say it personally on Sunday to you but you and your music was amazing. It made my day very special, I wish I could just sit down and hear all my favourite songs once again. If you do your own show or gig as well, please let me know. My music lover friends have already got your details

Hi James, I wanted to say thanks again. Your performance last Saturday night at Richmond Golf Club was exactly what was required. We were so glad we found your ad! Your disco lights really jazzed up the room and made it magical, the music was spot on. It was a really perfect mix. I only wish more people had decided to start dancing earlier! Thank you!

Hi James played at my recent Birthday Party at my pub and I was very happy with his choice of music, his voice, guitar playing and the music in between sets. James was also very polite and on time ... Everyone enjoyed the night and that was due to James's music.. thank you again and I will be in touch to book you again :) Tracey

It was great having James perform at my party. It was a great mix of background music for the first set followed by some cracking tunes in the second set which really got the party going. It was certainly a talking point of the evening, all of which was about how good James was and how it was great to have him there. James really made the party go well and was an integral part of a great evening.

I found James while perusing for a live musician for a surprise 70th birthday party we were holding for our mum. From start to finish, James was communicative and kept me informed every step of the way. We welcomed mum in while James played a small DJ set, then he sang live. I was blown away by his talent and the hypnotic smoothness of his voice. He played a further set after a break and really got the crowd up and dancing. All in all, a highly talented musician and I commend anyone who can get to the high pitches of the Spice Girls :-) We had some of the guests round for breakfast for the following morning and they too were completely blown away by his talent. Thank you so much James, you are one of a kind and we will definitely be calling on you again! You made everyone’s night, but most importantly, you made my mum’s night.

James was absolutely perfect for our event. We asked him to provide background music during a party and everyone how commented on how good he was. he added to the party without dominating it, which is exactly what we asked for. He was punctual and very professional and had a great set list which he tailored to our requests. I would definitely use him again for a function and would highly recommend him.

James performed on my wife's 40th and it was an amazing performance. Every bit of music he played or sung was melodious and enjoyable. He was courteous and adaptable for the requests of songs despite the event was running bit late I would definitely recommend him and consider him for my next celebration!
