James played at my husbands 70th birthday party and everyone just loved him. He took requests and knew most of them I asked him before he came to play if he knew a song and he didn't but learned the song to play at my event. What a class act. He is a great singer great tone and excellent guitar player. Will hire him again.

I have been working with JG for over 20 years at the different operations I have had responsibility for, and I can say that he is consistently a top ROI artist for me, among the dozen or so on my roster. He always arrives early, is set up on time and doesn't take long breaks. He has my full endorsement and I plan to continue to work with him for years to come.
