“We hired Craig to play our engagement party and we couldnt have been any happier. From first contact, to my CONSTANT emails with requests, and finally to the party, hes been brilliant. He played everything that we specifically requested, and had a massive catalogue of songs for us and our guests to choose from too. He really paid attention to what we wanted, and our own musical tastes, Would 100% have him play at any other parties we might have and will be recommending him to friends/family! “ Nikki and Nicola
