Quiet Nights Duo
"Great Show!
We had the pleasure of hiring Daniel and Erin for our corporate Christmas party, and they were absolutely fantastic! Everyone truly enjoyed their performance—they were professional, punctual, and incredibly talented. Their repertoire of bossa nova and Christmas music created the perfect festive atmosphere. We will definitely hire them again in the future!"

Stephen Johnston guitar
"I hired Stephen to come to my home in order to evaluate my collection of guitars.
He tested all twelve of them and told me what he though about them.
It was nice talking to him.
Thanks Stephen"
Samantha Clayton Music
"[With regard to your new album, Conflict of Love":] For you to make such a fresh sounding work with such a minimal instrumentation - you are a very very talented songwriter and arranger and your vocal approach is both comforting and risky."
John Gilliat Spanish Guitar
"We had John play at my birthday party with around 30 guests. His totally masters his repertoire and his music is beautiful! But what we liked even more is that John is not a prima donna who wants to be the star performer: despite him being a top pro, he’s happy to play in the background and provide atmosphere. He made my party complete without imposing himself and everybody was very impressed."
