James was excellent for our small party. Everyone loved the live music and wanted to know where I found him. I would recommend highly to others and use him again in the future.

James was amazing. He learned two requested songs and absolutely nailed them. He was beyond punctual and extremely professional from start to finish. I had asked that he play for maybe 15-20 minutes after the service while we were having pictures taken, and by our best approximation he played for about an hour. ?? He was easy to communicate with prior and exceeded our expectations. 10/10 would recommend to a friend!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on March 4, 2018From New Smyrna Beach, FL

We booked James on short notice, so we were happy the timing worked. He was always quick to respond to emails with any questions we had. He even met us the day before the ceremony to play some songs for us and to help us decide on final decisions. He was very friendly, thorough, and professional. He did a fabulous job at our wedding ceremony and many friends asked for his info b/c they would love to hire him later at their own events. You can't go wrong with James...he was great all around.

James (AKA Smoove Jimmy) was the BEST!!! His professionalism, talent,and accommodating and kind personality were all extremely impressive. He played acoustic guitar and sang for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, then DJ'ed the reception. It was all absolutely perfect and so much fun. We had multiple guests compliment James' music and state that it was the best wedding music they have ever heard. He simply went above and beyond- learning a new song for us, playing my parents' wedding song and creating a special moment for them, and playing the perfect balance of music all night, keeping the dance floor full until the very end!

Anniversary PartyReviewed on May 22, 2017From Port Orange, FL

James was amazing. All of our guests commented on how wonderful he was. A few also wanted to sing along with him and he welcomed them in. We also asked if we could go over the allotted time, which, he had no problems with as well. The music he played was outstanding and his professionalism impeccable. I would recommend him for any event.

James is all you need for an amazing night. He provides a timeline for your big day and helps to keep things running smoothly. James played guitar for our ceremony and DJ'ed for the reception. He was so professional and on point. We danced all night long and couldn't have been happier with his services. Amazing Musician and DJ! Do not hesitate to hire him!

James was an unbelievable Mc, musician and DJ. He was enthusiastic and was flexible with any last minute changes. Definite recommend James as a DJ or live musician for our event. He can play all genres including Latin, country, pop, and hip hop.

James did a great job. He was on time, played the right songs, his playing was great and his voice was even better than in his recordings. He sounded amazing and helped make our wedding perfect :-)

Our experience with James from start to finish was excellent. All comunications were done in a timely and professional way. He is a very talented guitarist and vocalist with a huge and wide ranging repertoire. I know we enjoyed listening to him play and we saw the minister tapping his toe too! Do not hesitate in hiring James as your muscian.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on February 13, 2015From Ormond Beach, FL

James was wonderful. He was very accommodating with requests and even took the time to learn a song I wanted payed for my walk down the aisle. He played guitar for cocktail hour and transitioned to DJing for the reception. He played favorites, requests, and improvised based on the crowd. I would hands down recommend him for any event. Such a talented man! =)

James did a fabulous job of entertaining our group at a couples' wedding shower. Professional, timely, and very communicative right up to the time of the event, very assuring. We thoroughly enjoyed his music, open to many genres, even took requests--rave reviews from all of our guests. Hope to hire James again in the future! Thank you!

James did an amazing job and was SO great about communicating before the event. Our friends all enjoyed him and I believe the bride and groom might try and book him for the wedding. I can't say a bad word and had a fantastic experience with James!

James was incredibly talented and professional. He was very understanding and caring towards our needs and requests. Not only did he play beautiful music but he was also very personable to us and our guests who also had many kind things to say about James. This is not the first time James had been a part of a special event for our family and he will most definitely be considered for any future events that we have.

Very professional, very talented... maybe include more variety of songs played (we heard the same song 3 times in 3 hours). Other than that, he is willing to do whatever is needed for your event. We recommend him.
