James was prompt, prepared and enthusiastic. He was a delight to have at my party. I enjoyed the music, his low key attitude fit beautifully with the guests. I had hired James based solely on his website, having never had the opportunity to view his shows previously. He surpassed my expectations in every capacity. The music was continually enjoyed by guests without being obtrusive. I would rehire James without hesitation. Gigmasters made hiring him a breeze and he made the evening that much more special with his presence.

James Raymond was very professional, and punctual. I would highly recommend booking this entertainer. His music was varietal and not too loud, which works well for a patio setting.
