We hired Mike to perform at a private event for a 30th birthday party and WOW he was amazing. His singing was fantastic, the music choice was spot on and he really made the evening special and memorable and tailored it to our requirements perfectly. We were up and dancing all night and I would book him again in a flash. Thanks Mike for such a great night - I could not recommend you more highly!

Mike was absolutely amazing! He completely made the night for my mum's 60th and everyone was up dancing and singing along with him. His selection of songs appealed to all ages present from 18 - 70 as he played current songs mixed in with some well loved old school classics. He went out of his way to learn special songs we had requested and kindly allowed the use of his mic for the speeches. I would recommend Mike 100% and will certainly be using him for future events. Thanks again Mike for making the night so special my mum absolutely loved it. Xxx Rachel xxX
