Photo of Efrayim Fischbacher Efrayim Fischbacher "I'm a professional I respect the music. I've never signed anything like this before." Based in Naples, Florida, United States (476 miles from Isla Holbox) 25th August 2026 Jason Miles Photo of Gary Strickland Gary Strickland "Gary has done a few events for me as I am a club advisor to students in college. I would say he is all about performing arts, except for the fact that he is just as good with customer service, and interactions on a business level! If he says he'll do something, he follows through with absolute professionalism. Mr. Strickland has been a solo performer on the trumpet, a singer, an EMCEE, a set designer , a professional photographer and crowd pleaser. Should anything unexpected happen, he has the experience and sharp reactions to handle a burgeoning situation without a hitch. I wish I had the time to simply listen to Gary perform outside of the venues for which I have hired him.

Based in Hampton, Georgia, United States (841 miles from Isla Holbox) Jonna B. Thoma. CMP - American Association of Airport Executives Photo of Texas Gypsies Texas Gypsies "In a word... FABULOUS! These guys gave us just the sound we needed for our fun Prohibition-theme wedding. It is now two weeks later, and all we keep hearing is "Man, that band was fantastic!" They are worth the asking price (which is very reasonable to begin with!) Steve Curry is a great guy and very easy to deal with. I would recommend them without any reservations."

He was so responsive when we first contacted him about our event in Stonington CT (a birthday party for my mother with approx. 40 guests at the La Grua Center), and his repertoire spanned all of the types of music were were looking for (jazz, classical, some show tunes). His playing was just so lovely at the event. A pleasure to meet him and have him join this event. My mother was so thrilled and it made her birthday very special. Many thanks to Jay. Highest recommendation." Based in Manhattan, New York, United States (1,545 miles from Isla Holbox) 31st March 2026 Wendy Waszmer - Cocktail, Jazz & Pop Piano (Jay Noble)
