Feedback
- Having Jose perform at my wedding was the best decision I made. He made all the difference for the wedding he set the mood as a festive one as soon as he started playing. Everyone at the wedding gave me compliments on him and how great it was. I felt like I had the GYPSY KINGS there. He not only satisfied our contract,but excelled. Thank you for everything JOSE YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!! -- Allison B, Rolling Hills Estates, CA, 9/13/2008
- JOSE GARCIA WAS FANTASTIC! We can't recommend him enough! He played well during both the wedding and pre-reception, and was really easy to talk to durring our meetings. We really felt he gave us a personalized wedding, and even learned a rare Filipino song for my wife! While kidding around with other buddies, we've noticed that engaged couples won't ask married couples for refferals because they don't want to copy their married friends. Well, DON'T MISS OUT on Mr. Jose Garcia! Book him before your friends do! He'll definitely help make your special event truly YOURS and SPECIAL!
RC and Barbra, from Malibu Lake, 8-29-08 -- Barbra B, Agoura Hills, CA, 8/29/2008
- Jose was outstanding. Very professional, extremely talented and very personable. We had 60 Guests in a small space...Jose was wonderful interacting with the crowd and making them a part of the performance. He was also very sociable during his breaks which made our guests feel even more comfortable with him. THANK YOU. He was GREAT. -- Chuck C, Santa Clarita, CA, 12/14/2008
- I had jose play during my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He was amazing. For the ceremony, the music was so romantic. During the cocktail hour I truly felt the gypsy kings were playing. I would definitely love to have him play for us again in the future. There is a lot going on at a wedding, and I didn't have to worry about him at all. He was on time, set up all of his equipment early, and sounded even better in person. Thank you so much for making my wedding beautiful. Mandy -- Mandy R, San Juan Capistrano, CA, 11/14/2008
- Jose is a very talented and professional musician. The music he played was exactly what we wanted for our wedding. We would recommend him to anyone. -- Sara C, San Diego, CA, 11/1/2008
- All of our guests loved Jose's music and his disposition. Several asked for his cards. I would definitely use him again if the opportunity presented itself.

- Jose did a beautiful job at our wedding ceremony. It added a special touch to our event. His price was very reasonable too which to any bride on a budget is important. -- Angela H, Irvine, CA, 1/12/2008
- I was very happy with Jose, he was very professional and his music was great! Highly recommended! -- Rita S, Malibu, CA, 1/5/2008
- Jose was an absolute pleasure to work with. Several of our wedding guests have asked where we found him and commented on how wonderful he was! He studied and played music that I selected and sent me audio samples of additional selections that we loved. I walked down the isle to Jose singing and playing "IZ - White Sandy Beach" and it was beautiful. His voice is magical and his playing was angelic! I am always skeptical about booking things/people online, but Jose put my fiance and I at ease. He stayed in close contact before the event, responding to all of my emails (and there were many) and phone calls promptly and made our wedding day PERFECT! Thank you Jose, thank you gigmasters!!!! We recommend Jose Garcia 100%! -- Layni L, Malibu, CA, 7/14/2007
- Jose Garcia was a perfect match for our event. He was great! Everyone kept asking me throughout the party where I found him because they enjoyed his sound. My mom, the birthday girl, loved his singing, his guitar playing and overall how he blended well with our group of family and friends. We plan to hire Jose again in the future! You won't be dissapointed! -- Janet Q, Camarillo, CA, 9/19/2008
- We were very happy with Jose Garcia's performance for our home event... We hired him because we had a Latin crowd for this event, and expected the kind of music he played... and he more than satisfied all of us! A great artist, and very professional.
Muy satisfechos con la presentacion musical de Jose Garcia. Lo contratamos para un evento en nuestro hogar, con invitados en su mayoria latinos... Lo encontramos muy profesional y un muy buen artista. -- Susana G, Altadena, CA, 10/4/2008
