James was great. He was on time and ready, and worked well with the wedding coordinator. My guests danced for hours, he kept the party moving. And he was well prepared for guest requests. I would hire him again.

James Raymond was wonderful. He was exactly what we wanted. He was very social and took requests as he was playing. I have seen a lot of solo guitarists, but he's the best that I've seen.

I couldn't be more pleased with the performance of Mr. Raymond during our event. He is truly talented and the clips on the site didn't compare to listening to him in person. I received so many inquiries on how my guests could hire him for their private event. He was very flexible and accommodating and would definitely hire him again. Thanks James!

I hired James for my low key wedding reception. His performance was fantastic. He was completely professional and appropriate, the music was great and appealed to all ages, he was always at the perfect volume, very unobtrusive, yet if you watched him, he was putting on a great show. I would recommend him for any wedding, party or corporate event. At least 5 people asked for his contact information. He performed a really nice duet with my daughter and accomodated every request.

James Raymond played at my April 7th wedding on the beach at Singer Island. I can't be happier with him and his performance. He was able to read the crowd and play the songs that we all wanted to hear. All my guests had a blast and kept complimenting me on the choice of musician. Your performance was exactly what I was looking for when I pictured my perfect beach wedding and I want to thank you so much for making that happen. I would recommend James to anyone who wants to have a great time at any event and who wants a professional that they can count on.

Our Party wouldn't have been the same without him!! We had to deal with rain storms off & on during his time here, stopping & restarting till it finally cleared up. Then he played a GREAT SHOW and made everyone's time more enjoyable!! I would definitely recommend him to others and look forward to having him back to play at another of our events!! Thank You James making our Party Rock!!! David

I was pleased with James Raymond. He played at my wedding and at a party later that day, and I thought he did a great job both times. He was fun and laid-back, which was exactly what I wanted. My guests thought that he was good, too. I would definitely recommend him.
