Reviews

The band was amazing everyone was asking about them and saying how good they were. Would highly recommend.

Trent Oien | Wedding

Jessie was outstanding. There’s actually no way to describe how lucky we feel to have had him at our celebration. He let us sing with him and sang all of our favorite songs as well as really setting the tone for the night. You guys were so easy to deal with and answered all of my questions, thank you.

Leyla Aldikacti | 50th Birthday

"Yes it went vey well. We loved Jesse’s vibe, his voice and guitar playing is superb. Also, the duet we did went great. So thanks very much!"
