Euro Café Duo
"Thank you Euro Café Duo! Your romantic and charming jazzy Parisian and Italian inspired music really set the stage for our Soirée Salus event, held recently at the French Embassy in Ottawa. Andrea’s vocals were beautiful and together your collaboration filled the room with such a warm and inviting ambiance. We really can’t say enough how much your music was such a hit with Salus organizers and all our guests in attendance. Thank you again!"

J-Sax
"We were fortunate to have Jorg perform at our wedding, and he truly exceeded all our expectations. From the moment he began his power set at the entrance, it was clear we were in for a treat. His performance was nothing short of spectacular, setting the perfect tone for our special day.
During dinner, he transitioned to a jazz set that added a sophisticated and enchanting ambiance to the evening. His talent on the saxophone is undeniable, captivating our guests and making the night even more memorable.
Jorg was incredibly professional, courteous, and sweet. He worked with us to ensure everything was perfect and tailored to our preferences.
We couldn't have asked for a better musician to enhance our celebration. If you're looking for a talented saxophonist who can bring both energy and elegance to your event, we highly recommend Jorg!!"
Mike Goudreau Band
"Where do I begin? In a nutshell, Mike Goudreau Trio put our event over the top. He communicated with me prior to the event to iron out the details, they arrived promptly to set up, and my guests are still commenting on how wonderful their music was! I used Gig Masters for the first time, and they delivered the best! Mike, you and your group made my parents anniversary party extra special. I told you in person, but once again you did an amazing job. Anyone looking for a talented, reliable, exceptional group for their event should look no further than Mike Goudreau!!!
See you at our next family gathering.
Your fan and very satisfied client,"
