Thank you soo much for coming to our engagement party and playing the Darbuka! It really added such an amazing atmosphere and everyone loved it. As you know we all like upbeat songs and you made everyone get up and dance. It just made us really enjoy our special night. Definitely would recommend you to any events - you blend into any type of culture and your skills really do add an impact to a good night. Also thanks for letting us have a go at the Darbuka.. haha we’re not pros like you. We wish you well in your career and hope to book you again! Neran & Mus x

I wanted to say a huge huge thank you from Alex and I. Honestly words can not describe how much it meant to have you play at our wedding. Blending two cultures is never easy as you were a big part in bringing ours to life! Everyone was in awe of your talent and ability to drum to anything! You were honestly incredible and our entrance was out of this world!! Thank you for creating something unique for Alex and me and for helping us make our wedding day one to remember.
