CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Jerry,
Thank you so much for being a part of our special day! From the moment Jim and I heard your voice on the demo, "It had to be you ;-)", we knew no one else would do. We were hooked! Your quick response to our request indicates that your professionalism is second to none. You were the perfect compliment to the atmosphere we were trying to create, and you helped us exceed our expectations of what a perfect wedding could be! Your band was just as professional as yourself, and a pleasure to meet and listen to!
All of our guests, both young and old, were extremely impressed with your voice and realism to the original soundtracks and your interactions with them made everyone feel very comfortable and relaxed.
Jim and I feel that Gigmasters is just the starting point for a true entertainer as yourself! We look forward to hosting another event where you will definitely be invited to perform.
With regards, Jim and Kathi
PS A number of couples that were at our party are now taking dance lessions because of your style of music!

Jerry and his fellow artists were everything we'd hoped for and MORE! Ever one of our guests enjoyed the music and the best part of the evening was seeing my grandparents out on the floor enjoying the music with my friends. I can't wait to have him back for future special events. Jerry and his band set the mood for the evening!

We couldn't have been happier with Jerry & his group.
We hired Jerry for our wedding and he was accomidating when it came to a specific play list and even a recorded music playlist for the brief moments when the band stopped for a break.
For our wedding we wanted Jerry to be low-key; we wanted a musician not an emcee, and that's exactly what he gave us!
As far as the abbilities... The band was top notch, all that you would expect from professional musicians, and Jerry..... well, he's smooth and on it all the time, in our opinion he's the best around.
If you like jazz & swing, definitely check out Jerry & his band!

Jerry and his band was great. I would definately hire them again and may even wind up using them again next year for what may turn out to be an annual golf benefit. Thanks again Jerry.
