Photo of Liz Player Jazz Singer Liz Player Jazz Singer "Could not be happier with Liz and the duo that sang and played at my wife's 50th Birthday arranged at last minute - highly recommend them." Based in Sydney, New South Wales (62 miles from Bowral) Chad - 50th Birthday Photo of Rocking Elvis by Serafino Alberti Rocking Elvis by Serafino Alberti "Rocking Elvis was a surprise gift for our mum's 80th birthday. He played a 30min solo gig to a very small crowd indoors and he was everything we could have hoped for. Very entertaining and incredibly engaging, particularly with mum. She absolutely loved him. Serafino is obviously a very genuine, kind and thoughtful person, staying back to talk to mum - he made her feel particularly special. Highly recommended!"
