David was absolutely incredible! We had David come and play at our wedding, all our guests complimented on how brilliant he was. Such a good guy, cracking guitarist and super voice. I would recommend David to absolutely anyone. He was that good we’re going to go and see him perform again in the near future. Unbelievable musician and great guy! Thank you so much David.

We hired David to perform at my Wife’s 60th birthday party in our garden. The initial engagement with David through to the performance on the night went flawlessly. He is a remarkable and talented performer and such a genuine lovely individual. Everyone commented on how great his performance was and definitely the talk of the Party. I highly recommend him and would definitely use him again in the future.
