Jerry Fordham:Singer/Guitar/Fiddle/Saxophone/Flute

• Greg Rogers - Bass/Guitar/Vocals

JERRY IS A VERY EXPERIENCED FULL TIME PROFESSIONAL Jerry has played up to 254 events per. year. Born and raised in Louisiana, his travels in music have taken him to 49 states and 6 countries in Europe. Ok that's the end of the third person part. LOL I was exposed to a "GUMBO" of styles. Over the years I added more tools of the trade starting on GUITAR then adding,SAXOPHONES,FIDDLE,FLUTE,KEYBOARDS and HARMONICA. I play as many instruments in the songs as I can to keep it as close to the artist that I cover as possible. Here's some of what my CLIENTS say: This is the second time we hire Jerry for an event and he did an unbelievable job both times! I'm already working on getting him back next time we have an event!! Our customers love him! Thanks Jerry! -Jesus O, Lilburn, GA (gig ID# 684700) To say that Jerry Fordham exceeded our expectations would be an understatement. A week later my wife and I are still talking about how amazing he was. Not only is he a top-notch performer with a wide range of musical talents, but the professionalism and obvious integrity he showed in his work blew us away! Many thanks again to Jerry Fordham and his 5-Star performance and to Gigmasters for giving us the opportunity to discover him. Book him today! You won't be disappointed. Best Regards, Brendan and Ashley -Ashley S, Travelers Rest, SC (gig ID# 599434) Jerry was wonderful. Not only talented on many instruments he was also very accommodating to our guest that felt a need to sing . He is a person I would love to use again. Sharon Clem -Sharon C, Cleveland, TN (gig ID# 609884) Jerry was fabulous! I booked him for my husband's 40th Birthday Party. Despite the intense GA heat and humidity, Jerry was wonderful! All of the guests enjoyed him and we had a range from young kids (age 3) to older adults (mid 60's). The party was at our neighborhood pool's clubhouse and people at the pool raved about him. He plays such a wide variety of music and instruments that everyone can enjoy! -Lauren O, Sandy Springs, GA (gig ID# 703702)

I am a full time professional musician playing six to seven days a week, sometimes twice in a day. I love to play. About seven out of every ten gigmasters jobs I play runs longer than the time requested. I'm versatile playing several instruments and styles of music. I have played venues ranging from weddings, high school Graduation parties, night clubs, restaurants, dinner parties, food and wine tasting on yachts, Jimmy Buffet pool side, to outdoors in the middle of nowhere around a Bon fire, using a generator for power. I've also played for mixed listening and dance parties. I can play from your selected list of artists in addition to taking guest requests through out the evening. . I can also plug in an I-pod to play any special music you may want to do during the evening or for dancing. I have around 22 hours of music. If you have any questions please call or email me. Thank you Jerry Fordham

Thank you for taking the time to send me a bid request. :)

He performed at my husband's 50th; a Jimmy Buffett style "Cheeseburger in Paradise" Party. We had all ages - kids as young as 10 to a Grandpa in his 80's; and everyone had so much fun listening and dancing to Jerry's music! He arrived early to set up and was very easy to work with. Top notch guy. -- Sara J, Commerce, GA, 10/1/2011

• Jerry was AWESOME. My wife and I had compliments all night about his musical talent. Jerry played music all night long that you could sing along too. We were impressed with the many instruments he played and how he continued to interact with the crowd between songs in a genuine way. He was very accomodating when we needed to use the mic for announcements and even took the time to when the night was over to take pictures and talk with our guests. Jerry was there to help make our rehearsal dinner enojoyable, we never felt as if he was trying to put on a show to be the center of attention. Jerry helped to make our night about us and he was one of the highlights. -- Rorie B, Athens, GA, 8/13/2010

• Jerry performed for our daughter's wedding reception held at the Brumby House & Gardens in Marietta, GA. He was great; punctual, friendly and professional. He dressed appropriately, brought all of his own equipment and set up the sound & acoustics perfectly. His fees are reasonable and his talent is enormous - I don't think there's a song out there he can't play, and play well! We feel lucky to have found Jerry and thought he was the perfect "fit" for our special day. So we are more than satisfied and highly recommend him. -- Amy G, Marietta, GA, 6/6/2010
• I hired Jerry to play at my mom's retirement party and he was wonderful! On top of being a great entertainer he was very accomodating. He played in hot conditions and never once complained. A true professional!! His playlist was a mile long and his talent with the various instruments was really something to see. Our guests had a great time and loved his music!

His communication leading up to the party was impressive making sure he knew what music/artists/songs we like and what we don't like. Jerry deserves nothing less than 5 stars!!! -- Ellyn S, Walterboro, SC, 6/4/2010

We had a large age range (5 - 91 years-old) and he played a wonderful range of music that everyone could enjoy. It was such a bonus that he played multiple instruments, as he incorporated them all and they sounded great! I would highly recommend him. He was quick to respond to questions / requests and so easy to work with! -- Lauren O, Madison, GA, 3/21/2010
• Jerry was a fantastic choice for our party. He took requests and played so many different types of music that everyone was hearing their favorite stuff. This was my first time booking a guitar player and Jerry was the perfect choice (He is even better in person compared to the songs on the site). Our guests were amazed with all the instruments he played, Jerry was a class act. -- Stan L, Dunwoody, GA, 2/13/2010
• Jerry was amazing and unbelievably talented! We enjoyed everything about his performance. He could play so many types of music from the classic rock we grew up with to today's country. All the different instruments he could play were exceptional. He kept us entertained all night long not only singing and playing the guitar but did so much more with the sax, flute, and the fiddle. In addition to that Jerry was a super nice person and a pleasure to work with. I would recommend Jerry highly for any occasion! You helped make our engagement party a night we will always remember!! -- Margaret H, Cumming, GA, 1/16/2010

Every1 commented on how his entertainment made the evening a brilliant success, even my parents! Every1 asked where i found him - i said gigmasters.com! i also admitted i was nervous b/c the internet, but my qualms disapeared when he sang his first song, and then again when every1 comlimented ME b/c of Jerry. I smiled, said thank you, and felt like a fantastic host, but all praise 4 musical talent deserves 2 go 2 Jerry Ford. i highly recommend Jerry and one last time, thank you. -- Cassie C, High Point, NC, 9/6/2009

• Jerry did an awesome job at our wedding/reception. He is very talented and accomodating. He drove five hours, got to our house early, even helped set up. He can play any musical instrument or song you can imagine. We had a great time, and our guests really enjoyed the music. I just cannot say enough about how happy we were! I have to say we were skeptical at first because it is so hard to hear some of the samples of his music on this site, but live, he was better than we could have ever imagined. If you are looking for someone to provide entertainment for a wedding, reception, anniversary, restaurant, anything...Jerry if definitely your guy! -- Sarah A, Beech Island, SC, 9/19/2009
• I could not have asked for a better experience. The music and party went great. I've never seen someone play quite the way he does. All the guest kept asking where did you find this musician. If your thinking about having music, Jerry can really play and sing. My husband and I were all smiles and very pleased with our choice. Stacy D. -- Stacy D, Jasper, TN, 8/1/2009
• Jerry did an outstanding job. Everyone...young and old enjoyed him. Normally people would have stared to leave, but they were glued to their chairs until he was finished. He made it a great party, and I would highly recommend him to anyone considering entertainment at a party. -- Allen P, Chattanooga, TN, 7/25/2009
• Jerry is Fantastic! He drove over 3 hrs to play for my husbands 40th birthday and was absolutely wonderful. The clips on the website do not do him justice. He is even better in person. I have had so many complements pertaining to Jerry himself and his music. We found him to be more than accommodating, very personable, reliable and of course talented! I don't think there is a song out there that he doesn't know! We loved that he is able to play so many instruments and it seems any style of music. I would not hesitate in hiring Jerry again in the future and assure you, you will not be disappointed! Thanks to Jerry for making our night a huge success! -- Tracy E, Carnesville, GA, 6/13/2009

• A fantastic show! A wonderful sound and the women love him! -- Robert A, Chattanooga, TN, 1/26/2009
