Djavad Percussionist "Djavad at our event was absolutely fantastic! His energy was contagious, and he brought such a vibrant, joyful atmosphere to the entire evening. Not only was he incredibly talented, but he also knew exactly how to engage the crowd and keep everyone smiling and dancing. Guests couldn’t stop talking about how much they loved his performance. He truly made the event unforgettable!" Based in Dubai (24 miles from Sharjah) 29th April 2026 Gulziya

Christos Adamidis (Maisha Percussion) "Incredibly talented and great guy! Christos played percussion alongside our DJ and a saxophonist at our wedding. Despite little prep time and a bespoke playlist from us, Christos’’ percussion was an amazing addition to the DJ and really got the party started - playing alongside a range of music from blues / disco to house music. I also have no doubt Christos would’ve been a great choice to DJ himself alongside his percussion and would definitely recommend for any similar events. He is also a great guy and built a great connection with us and all our guests. Highly recommend!" Based in Mykonos, South Aegean, Greece (1,950 miles from Sharjah) 3rd September 2026 Lewis M - Private Wedding
