Safety Source Productions Inc. -- Lisa M, Houston, TX, 10/6/2010
- We had a mix of ages from 30-60 at the party. James' music satified everyone and several of the people are booking him for other events. He was very flexible in his music and very easy to work with in the booking phase. We could not have been happier. We now consider him part of the family. We can't wait to give another party and use him. -- Madeline P, Houston, TX, 10/2/2010
- James was prompt, professional, flexible, friendly, and talented. You can't ask for better entertainment than that! Our evening was a success in great part because of the entertainment that James provided. I would not hesitate to book him again, and will be looking for where he plays around Houston when I wish to take my wife for an evening out. -- Chris R, Sugar Land, TX, 8/21/2010
