Joe Was Perfect! Highly Recommend!

We feel truly lucky to have found Joe! Not only did he do two fantastic sets at our wedding (welcome drinks and post dinner) he also provided the audio set up for the speeches and played the perfect playlist during the meal. Joe was a delight from the moment we contacted him. He was professional, courteous and went above and beyond to make our day amazing! So many guests commented on how talented he is and what a highlight his performances were. We wouldn’t hesitate for a moment recommending Joe!

Live Music at our December Wedding

I first heard Joe sing Live when at our local pub back in November 2023. Everyone commented how great he was and I took a note of his details. We had just booked our wedding and I contacted Joe to see if he was available to do a couple of live slots for us at our venue in Cheshire.
I knew Joe was good but was blown away by his performance on the night! He even learnt one of our first dance songs so he could play that live for us!
Everyone was on the dance floor immediately and for the whole night and I've been told by numerous people that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. I do believe that Joe (and his uncle who did the DJ ing inbetween live shots) helped to make the evening what it was. Joe plays a range of different songs to suit all ages, and I have no hesitation whatsover recommending him - you will not regret it!

I have kept his details and already trying to think of an event where he can have him come play again!

Absolutely perfect for our Wedding

I asked Joe last minute if he could perform at our wedding after a local performer turned us down a couple of weeks before the big day!!
Joe was super responsive and he saved the day!
The guests really enjoyed the performance, we had him play on the afternoon from around 2-4 which was perfect to create the atmosphere we were looking for! Absolutely would recommend to anyone!!
