"I can’t recommend Jay enough. He was absolutely brilliant and had the whole crowd up singing and dancing, he really made our night. His voice was superb and he had a wide variety of songs. He interacted with the crowd and really made every person feel like part of the performance. Thank you Jay!"
Asgards Traditional Irish Music
"Thank you so much for playing at our wedding and adding such a wonderful touch to the day. Walking down the aisle to Tabhair dom do lámh was a moment we'll never forget, and the tunes you played throughout the cocktail reception kept the atmosphere so lively and joyous. Your music made Emma's whole Irish side of the family very happy and gave many of our American guests their first intro to traditional Irish music - not to mention that you all sounded great too! We can't thank you enough for adding such a special touch to our Wedding Day!
With so much gratitude,"

He played a wide variety of songs to suit all, we had an absolute ball. He's sound out, very easy to chat to. Wouldn't hesitate to book again, delighted he was part of our day ☺️"
The BeerMats Irish Folk & Ballads
