Jack was fantastic for our afternoon birthday party. He got in touch beforehand and arrived nice and early to set up. He also achieved my request for some songs to get people dancing! Thanks very much Jack.

Jack was absolutely amazing at the wedding reception I organised. Read the room perfectly, knew exactly when to bounce the music up to get everyone dancing. I’ve had so many people ask where I found him!! Jack was so accommodating when we wanted to tweak the running order of the evening, So helpful. Absolutely stressless experience cannot thank him enough.

Jack was incredible! He was super adaptable, happy to start a bit later when food was delayed at our wedding. When he did perform he got everyone at our small wedding up dancing. Everyone was raving about him all night! Thanks for making our wedding so special!

Jack Daynes is a rambunctious performer with serious entertainment value! This multi talented musician started his career as a drummer, however his gift for melody can't be ignored! Jack is certainly one to watch out for!

I met Jack in at glastenbudget when he was playing with the stereotonics and oasish. Some friends and I saw both bands and Jack was incredible. We had joked prior to his main stage gig that he couldn't throw and catch his sticks during the gig, which he not only managed but totally smashed the set!! He has amazing skills and would be a total asset to anyone he played with! Can't wait to see him on the circuit again soon!!

Jack’s ability to connect with an audience, on Guitar, Vocals, Keys and Drums, makes him a perfect choice for any Band. He has extensive Cruise Ship and Ski Season experience and is frequently asked to play large festivals, as part of some of the country’s biggest tribute bands. We have worked together on a number of occasions at Bar / Club /Venue events - most recently on the 4th July 2019.
