An extremely talented, professional, all round nice guy. We met Chris at the pub to get to know each other and to discuss what music we wanted, and didn't want. He had so many different genres for us to choose from, which helped make our ceremony personal to us. We would highly recommend Chris!! More...

What a fab fella! Chris travelled down to Cornwall to entertain my family and friends last week for my mother’s 80th birthday celebrations. Even though the setting was outdoors on the Monday evening, his musical talents shone. He read the setting perfectly and everyone, of all ages, thoroughly enjoyed his performance. By mid-week the gathering had reduced to just 17 in number so we congregated in the games room on site to enjoy another session with Chris. Once again, he exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend this young man. Exceptionally talented and ever so easy to get along with. More...

Brilliant on many instruments and has a huge catalogue of songs.
Our guests loved him so much he got a standing ovation as he left to go home by the group who were sitting beside him.
Thanks a lot Chris.

Chris was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish and what a talent! I knew from the first time I heard him at a wedding fair that I wanted him to play at our wedding. The music was incredible and it created such a wonderful atmosphere before, during and after our ceremony. All of our guests were amazed by the number of instruments Chris could play, as well as commenting on his flawless performance. This review is a little delayed(we were married on 28th December) but thanks for being a part of our special day and making it all the more special! More...

When we first saw Chris at a wedding fayre 18 months ago, we knew we wanted to book him for our wedding on 28th May this year. From start to finish, he was professional, helpful and friendly, and his music is beautiful! He talked us through our choices and even learned songs that we wanted to hear at our wedding, including the Star Trek theme for our entrance to the wedding breakfast as a surprise for my husband! Everyone commented on how great he was, and he really made our day special. Absolutely brilliant in every way! Thank you Chris! More...

Joanne and I got married on July 2nd at Sketty Hall, Swansea. We had seen Chris at a Wedding Fayre and decided there and then to book him. We had a good idea of what kind of music we wanted and met Chris a couple of times to develop the "playlist" for each element of pre-ceremony/ceremony and post ceremony. His renditions were beautifully played/sung. Chris made an impact with all of our guests who appreciated his multi-instrument talent. Although an integral part of our day Chris was discreet in terms of volume and set-up and he was the perfect backdrop. We highly recommend Chris - you won't be disappointed! More...
