We booked Ozzi as a surprise for my mum’s 60th birthday, as she’s a massive Elvis fan, and he honestly made her night. From the moment he walked in, the whole crowd went nuts. He was fantastic at getting everyone involved, interacting with guests and creating such a great atmosphere. Mum was absolutely over the moon, and it ended up being one of the highlights of the entire night. Everyone was raving about him afterwards. Worth every cent and couldn’t recommend him highly enough!"

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!"
