"BEST BAND EVER!! We had The Lucky Saints play in the evening at our wedding at The Cruin last weekend. We appreciated their communication before the big day so much for making us feel so at ease and they arrived in plenty of time on the night. Other than our first dance and a few common requests, we wanted to leave them to do their thing - and boy did they deliver! They unexpectedly started (after our first dance) with a Gay Gordons ceilidh dance which was a surprise and really turned out to be the best way to start the evening - getting everybody up onto the dancefloor and having a laugh! They then moved seamlessly on to indie anthems, classic pop tunes and dancefloor fillers - they always knew what to play next to keep everyone on their feet. All tied up with a beautiful rendition of Loch Lomond to finish the night. The dancefloor was filled the whole evening and our guests kept commenting on how great the band were - particularly the beautiful female vocals and their ability to perform such a range so well. They even gifted us a bottle of "The Lucky Saints" branded bubbly to top it off! Thanks so much for giving us the best party on our special day!! True professionals and such a lovely group, we would highly recommend!"

"We booked the HayLee to perform at our wedding in September 2023, and we were so glad we did. The performance was absolutely amazing, they got everyone up dancing all night and really made our evening. Hayley and Lee are all so professional, but also extremely friendly and couldn't do enough for us. They made the performance personal to us and had no problems helping us with any requests that we had. Most importantly, the music was unbelievable. They are so talented, the set list was awesome and suited the audience we had. I cannot recommend these ladies highly enough, I'd book them again for any event. HayLee, thank you so much for making our wedding reception so special for us!"

"Encrypted Love Indra has been performing at Plugged In Switched On for several years now and she is one of the most accomplished and talented musicians I have had the pleasure of working with. She is very professional and organised and always gets to the venue in good time for her performance, sound check or whatever. She has a way of making any song her own and breathing new life into them usually with an Encrypted Love twist in the tail. She has a very natural way with audiences and soon has them eating out of her hand. In short Indra is a professional artist / entertainer of the highest caliber and I do not hesitate to recommend her to any person or organisation that might have need of her services."

"Having Wajdi C. perform at our private event was such a wonderful experience. From our first messages to the last song of the evening, he was professional and easy to work with. His piano playing was elegant, expressive, and created exactly the mood we were hoping for. We were thoroughly impressed with his extensive set list and will definitely invite him back for future gatherings. I highly recommend him. (10 / 10) John B."

"March 26, 2017 Last night (March 25, 2017) the legendary Presley & Cash Highway Road Show pulled into Windsor for a night of fun, frolics and fundraising through the experience and dedication of two skilled local tribute artists. Paying Cash – The Johnny Cash Show and a Elvis brought the music of Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley to the Olde Walkerville Theatre for a fundraising event for the Miracle League of Amherstburg. The show began with Harrow, Ontario tribute artist who brought the post-war Elvis to life in a vibrant and highly entertaining set. The music selection was unique, as was his leg-shaking performance. This was a true tribute and not really an over-the-top impersonation as we so often see. There were no jumpsuits, no giant belts and no overweight wig-wearing phonies – this was the cool suit-jacket wearing Elvis that the world loved in 1956 and 1957. He had enough looks and moves to pull it off and present a believable reproduction of the way Elvis moved, sang and even interacted at the peak of his musical return. The song selection resembled the King’s 1957 performance at the PNE in Vancouver with such non-traditional tracks like Blueberry Hill, That’s When Your Heartaches Begin and Peace in the Valley. In many ways the lead singer reminded me of an early Michael Buble, with just enough Elvis in the mix to make it plausible and entertaining, but also enough of himself to keep it fresh and lively. He nailed Elvis’ voice from the early years, as well as the swagger and personality we would expect in an early Elvis tribute. The Silvertones mastered the musical presentation and were the perfect band to backup the energetic Elvis show. After a lengthy set, I couldn’t help but wonder what kind of incredible music could bring to the table if he decided to record some original music. It took a leap of faith to bring Buble his first recording contract, let’s hope someone does the same for him. Headliners Paying Cash captured the essence of 1968 Johnny Cash in both attitude and skill, pairing perfectly with 57-58 Elvis – these were the “attitude” years for both superstars, and although a decade apart, they seemed musically aligned at these specific intervals. The lead singers 12-year old daughter joined him on stage for three June Carter duets, and later when he acoustically took on Cash’s death-bed hit Hurt with guitar and piano accompaniment. The singer looked exactly like Cash at various times when he was at the mic, but he was always perfect when it came to the movements and nuances that Cash had on stage. You could actually see the fire in his eyes during such attitude anthems as Cocaine Blues, Folsom Prison Blues and Cry, Cry, Cry. That fire and his voice were right on par with Joaquin Phoenix’s movie adaptation of Cash, The band itself was so close to the original backup band that they should change their name to The Windsor Three. The guitarist handled the lead guitar as if he invented those licks himself, bassist injected some humour when he wasn’t playing his stand-up bass and drummer provided a solid drum beat throughout. The only thing missing was that they weren’t dressed in full black suits like The Tennesee Three probably would have been.The superstar of the show was his daughter, who charmed the audience with her stunning voice and light-hearted personality – a combination that played out in a fun and charming take on June Carter Cash for three songs, including the infamous relationship-song Jackson. Her personality and voice matched well with her fathers and the duets were a standout moment, much as they were in the movie Walk The Line. Paying Cash is a well put together band that captures the young and rebellious Johnny Cash like none other. This was the era of Johnny Cash that fans love the most and rarely get to see on its own in a tribute show. Should The lead singer and Paying Cash ever decide to hit the studio, I wouldn’t be surprised if the results sounded much like early Blue Rodeo, mixed with some good old Johnny Cash.If these two bands do play together again, the Presley-Cash combination is a sure fire knock-out not to be missed."
