This has been an amazing experience at my restaurant Bravo Italian Grill. My guests loved Jays music and he filled my terrace for dinner tonight. We look forward to having him back on Tuesdays for dinner. It was a great turn out! He played the whole 2 hours for us very pleased. Thank you very much from Bravo and my staff.

Wow - that sums it up. I get disappointed 60% of the time hiring people randomly. Jay far exceeded our expectations in all aspects. Super responsive, fairly priced, excellent singer and showman, great personality. Will be using Jay often. Far exceeded expectations. Fantastic.

Jay was incredibly professional from initial contact all the way through his entertaining performance. He was hired for a large birthday party and went above and beyond to make sure all the guests had a wonderful time. His musicianship is top notch and the very personable way he interacted with guests before and after the performance really set him a part from others I have hired through the years. Highly recommended!

Jay is a wonderful musician and makes the crowd feel included in the music. He plays guitar, harmonica, whistles and plays piano….its amazing to see him switch things up to add to the performance. He is very responsive in scheduling and has great follow through.
