Thank you James for a great night DJing at my 30th birthday party. You set the mood and got everyone & up on the dance floor. You were also really on board with what I wanted which was so reassuring beforehand and you took care of all those technical details I know nothing about so took a lot of the stress away! The night would not have been the same without you and I’m so so glad I got in touch with you about it! ❤️

James performed at my wedding reception in August 2008.He was extremely professional, arriving in plenty of time to prepare and set up. James was well equipped for the role. His playing ability was great and the overall performance was amazing. Everyone was on the floor dancing. I would definitely recommend him because he really brought the party to life and I hope to book him again for future events.
