• June 22, 2024Sam was absolutely fantastic from the first initial message I sent all the way through to the event itself. Sam was very polite, accommodating and really made the night with this excellent performance. Everyone commented on the singer and Sam even let us use his mic to do some speeches at the end of the gig when many could've said no.
Would highly recommend and we'll no doubt book Sam again in the future.

Communication prior to the event good an reassurance that he was reliable and exactly what we were looking for. He didn’t disappoint, was flexible to our needs and ensured a good time was had by all. Very professional, talented and a truly nice guy. Thank you. We definitely recommend Sam.

He is able to perform over 300 covers and tailored the set. There was lots of positive feedback from guests. I will be looking to get in touch with Sam for future events.
