Jimmy's Reviews

5 out of 5

Jimmy Ireland has gigged for us over several years in our busy seaside restaurant. Friendly and accommodating, he's always willing to fill in for us when other performers have let us down. He is a popular performer, and a delight to work with. His experience and professionalism means that we'll continue to book Jimmy for as long as he wishes to play for us. Kate Allen, Owner Cantina, Goodrington
