"I cannot say enough good things about Stephan. He was super responsive, professional and performed above our expectations. We had a small wedding and Stephan's music was a perfect highlight throughout the evening. I do not exaggerate when every single guest approached myself or Stephan directly with high compliments. I recommend Stephen fully for any event!"

"You might expect an album with edgy, teal-lit cover art and the title of The Isolation Blues, by the Mike Goudreau Band, to be either dark and brooding or a real barroom stomper, showcasing the loudest guitar you’ve heard since Jimi Hendrix’s. Instead, from the first notes, you’ll find it’s a peppy ensemble extravaganza with horns galore. More’s the better, too – the Winter Solstice is coming up, and we need an eye-opening blast of sunshine in the middle of it. Smooth, jazzy-influenced, and boasting crystal-clear vocals, it’s a must-play on New Year’s Eve. Born in 1965 in Newport, Vermont, into a musical family with an English mother and a French-Canadian father, Mike Goudreau picked up his first guitar at age 14 and hasn’t stopped playing since. His early influences included the Beatles, Chuck Berry, Rolling Stones, Johnny Cash, Nat King Cole, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, and later, Albert King, Freddie King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Powder Blues and Downchild – to name a few. Such diverse interests help to explain why Mike is comfortable in so many musical genres, especially jazz and blues. Since 2007, Mike’s songs have been heard on hundreds of network TV shows and films, such as the TV movie The Happiest Season (Hulu), Dynasty (CBS), the Universal Pictures film Dark Waters, the Hollywood film The Banker, starring Samuel Jackson (2020), The Neighborhood (CBS), NCIS Los Angeles (CBS), and Chicago PD (NBC), among several others. Joining Mr. Goudreau (vocals, guitars, bass and hand claps) are Jean-Francois Begin (think Menachem Begin, not “begin”) on drums and percussion, Dany Roy on tenor sax and trumpet, Ira Friedman on organ and piano, and Pascal Veilette on harmonica. You know all the shows and films mentioned earlier? Together, they spell diamond-level QUALITY. That’s what’s been poured into each of the fourteen original tracks on this CD. Every note, every musical phrase, glimmers like the light off one of that gem’s many facets. This is real-deal blues, whether in swing/jump form (as on the opener “Let’s Go Down to the River”), the angsty, harmonica-infused title track, the guitar and piano boogie known as “The Mooch,” or the laid-back instrumental “Sea Breeze Blues.” Any band can crank out an album in their garage or basement and deem it good enough, but not Goudreau and his posse. They care about their offerings like Michelangelo cared about David, or Da Vinci the Mona Lisa. That’s because they’re not just musicians. Not just craftsmen. They’re artists, and don’t you forget it. Got The Isolation Blues? Here’s the cure, or at least the vaccine! "

"His music added a special quality to the wedding. Stephan is personable, approachable, professional and a talented musician. Our events schedule changed several times and Stephan remained flexible and accommodating. He learned 2 new songs for us and performed them beautifully for the wedding ceremony and at the reception. As well, his services are very reasonably priced. Thank you, Stephan, it was a pleasure to meet you and your music made our special occasion even more special!"

"We have seen Tim play at the Master Builders, Beaulieu and also booked him to play at a private launch event. Tim has a fantastic sing-along-able repertoire which creates a really happy, fun atmosphere and he embraces my song requests :) He has a very professional set up as far as sound system, lights etc. He is the first person I’d call when looking to book music for events! Thank you Tim!"

"Wow! I cannot thank Les and his team enough. He made our wedding so incredibly fun and did an awesome job as MC, especially because he didn’t know us personally but it felt like he did the whole night. There was never an empty spot on the dance floor and Les knew how to work the room. From 2 year olds through to 70 year olds, everyone was up and dancing! I cannot thank him enough. His professionalism was amazing and his voice is unreal! Highly recommend! See you when we have to renew our vows Les!"

"“Samantha Clayton is a very talented singer-songwriter, with an innate sense of phrasing and authentic delivery of lyrics and story telling. Her unique style of jazz-folk incorporates the richness of jazz harmonies combined with real life ands love stories that are prevalent in folk and country music. What emerges is a truly unique artist whose soulful style and message are heard loud and clearly through her original songs, which are little gems, glowing with the beauty of her splendid vocals.” "

"You want your heart - strings shredded, your spirit taken to places you never knew existed, your restless mind stilled? Is it the subtle hint of danger you're after, the intrigue of the exotic - and tell me if I'm going the top. If you think I am, it's the certain sign you haven't yet been exposed to the music of LOYKO, the gypsy band from Russia."
