One hundred percent of our 280 guests werte satisfied customers.Thatis a very good percentage. Capt Josh can really sing Jimmy Buffett.

Whether singing Buffett or other tunes Capt Josh made it his bussiness to understand what the audience wanted and unjusted the music accordingly. Thank you Linda -- Linda M, New Port Richey, FL, 4/9/2006
  • Captain Josh was enjoyed so much by everyone at my event. He arrived early to set up and was most accommodating as far as musical requests were concerned. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for any event that wanted this type of music - he's the greatest! -- Judy M, Orlando, HI, 7/15/2006
  • Captain Josh was the perfect fit for our beachside wedding. He was easily accessible prior to the event, arrived early to setup, and was extremely professional with everyone he came in contact with throughout the course of the day. We have received so many compliments about the music and the relaxed atmosphere that it created. Several of our friends mentioned that he was so good that at times they forgot they were listening to live music. Many people asked him for his number before leaving. Thank you Captin Josh for making our day truly special...we will definitely call on you again! T.H. and Tracy Smith, Jacksonville, FL -- Tracy M, Jacksonville Beach, FL, 7/8/2006
