We really enjoyed Joe's set for our Christmas at Clandon event on Sunday. Joe entertained us with some swinging Christmas songs and got us all in the right spirit.

We enjoyed Joe's set at the Hideout bar and he really brought the festive energy to our pub. He got the crowd up and dancing, and his 12 Days of Xmas audience participation was a hit. We look forward to hiring him in the new year.
