Jo's Reviews

5 out of 5

Jo Sax played for us every Saturday night to entertain our packed out restaurant and she was just brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble, not only is she a fabulous musician but she’s a pleasure to work with also. The diners loved it and it set the most perfect ambience. Live piano accompaniment was an added bonus and really brought the place alive.
