5/5 from 1,577 reviews
Photo of Rico Scott Rico Scott "From our very first chat, Rico went above and beyond to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. He was so easy to work with, genuinely cared about making our day special, and made the whole process feel effortless. Then came the wedding day, and wow. His performance completely exceeded every expectation we had. Walking down the aisle was one of the most emotional moments of our lives, and Rico's vocals made it even more incredible. There were chills, there were tears, and it honestly felt like something out of a movie. The compliments didn't stop all night. Our guests absolutely loved him and were constantly asking who he was and where we'd found him. So many people told us afterwards how amazing he was and how much he added to the atmosphere of the day. Rico is not only incredibly talented, but he's also a genuinely lovely person who truly cares about what he does. We couldn't have imagined our wedding without him and would recommend him to anyone in a heartbeat."

He was really good. It was not just about singing, he kept the audience entertained/connected by his wits, shayari. A total package. Highly recommended. 👍" Based in Waitakere, Auckland Amit arora - Private party Photo of Midé Midé "Midé was absolutely fabulous! He brought the energy and love. So kind and the best vibes, everyone loved his performance. It was such a treat to work with you and he brought the best energy to the office." Based in London, England, United Kingdom 23rd October 2026 Midé - Corporate event Photo of Paola Fiore Burgos Paola Fiore Burgos "I have had the opportunity and the good fortune to work as a Sound Technician with Paola Fiore on many occasions over the last two years, in the various formats in which she presents her performances (solo, duo, trio...). Additionally, in the live music venues where I also programme live performances, I usually count on her as long as her professional schedule allows. It is always a pleasure to collaborate with this excellent vocalist. She offers a broad repertoire that can suit practically any requirement in terms of type of music and audience. Her interaction with the audience is always appropriate and fits the venue of the performance very well. Alvaro Pinedo Sound Technician" Translated from Spanish Based in Madrid, Spain 21st October 2026 ALVARO PINEDO - MACAO RESTAURANT Photo of Bob Ferguson Songwriter Bob Ferguson Songwriter "We all had an amazing night, all the sailors loved your performance and it really made a massive difference to the night, it really brightened up the spirits of everyone and made it a night to remember, extremely worth it and a very fair price. Keep in touch bob."
