David's Reviews

Hi David, Just wanted to send on a quick thank you for your performance on our wedding day! We booked you all the way from Abu Dhabi and were hesitant to book a band for the cocktails as wasn't in the original budget, but overall, we got the best value for money out of your performance! It added so much to the day, and loads of guests commented on how much they enjoyed your music! Everyone enjoyed hanging out on the lawn listening to you play at Cloughjordan House, Co. Tipperary. You were brilliant. Our best decision!! Many thanks again!! All the best, Elisa & Michael

Hi David, Thank you so much for being part of our big day. The music has been complimented by everyone. Sorry for any mix up regarding where to set up but it worked out really well in the end, you helped make it very relaxed and I loved your version of 'Sail Away'!! Thanks you again for being there. Denise and Ciaran
