John was an absolute professional and a pleasure to work with. Despite our dodgy music requests, John knew exactly what to play to get people dancing.

Thank you for your kind comments. As it was outside, and it was cold, I thank you all for joining in. I met some nice people, who were great to talk to between sets. Despite the cold, I enjoyed being there, and hope that everyone had a good time. Nice people, nice event. Thanks.

These lads arrived early and I was very impressed with the set up. After a few technical problems John managed to put on a fantastic show. Everyone was on the dance floor. Highly recommended

Charisma Roadshow were amazing & I highly recommend them, the lights added a fab atmosphere to the evening. The music was top notch, people were very professional and the quality of sound from the music and microphones was superb. Don’t hesitate, book them now. They also travelled quite a way for us too. Super night all round. Thank you.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Generally the ease of which to get on with us. We are very accommodating, and want to make sure our clients do actually get what they pay for. Experience counts for a lot, we have plenty of that!

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

It is unlikely that we have performed at 'well known' venues as we are a mobile disco. We've played at a lot of military establishments, as well as town hall venues, seaside entertainment venues and everything in between.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Good question. I suppose the answer would be Tamla Motown artists, and the like. If you check out our details, you can see that we've supported the likes of Edwin Starr, Jimmy James, Detroit Emeralds, and more recently, Toploader, Katrina and the Waves, Billy Ocean et al! The list is extensive, I think they have all given something to our influences?

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Many years ago we played at the Cafe Royale in London, that was high profile. We've also done the highly respected 'Purple Ball' for the military, plus we played at NATO headquarters in Belgium for their 50th anniversary, that was a nice gig.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

We understand things may change. All we ask is that you give us as much notice as possible, we will always do our best to accommodate alterations as required.

How much time do you need to set up?

We ask for 90 minutes but subject to unloading being straight forward can generally set up within an hour.

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

Being a dj service we actively encourage that our clients forward a playlist to us, especially for wedding events. Our aim is to provide our clients with exactly what they want, our extensive experience always helps to get it right.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes. It is always helpful however to advise on the size of the venue plus an approximate number of guests as this helps us choose what PA to bring with us. Our PA is always high quality, we can vary what we use depending on the event.
