Reliable, professional and a joy to listen to. And he is SUCH a lovely guy! He really made our celebration complete, the guests thoroughly enjoyed his performance and we really appreciated him being here. We can’t thank Huw enough for his wonderful contribution to our special day. He worked incredibly hard, way beyond the call of duty, and even found time for some of our guests who were keen to chat to him after his performance. We recommend Huw without hesitation, and would absolutely invite him back if we can find an excuse for another party. Thank you very much Huw. Louise Wallace
Hi! I’d just like to say Huw and his band were great - I will be booking him again.Tosh Shaw
Huw was a true professional who has amazing talent. His performance was outstanding and we would not hesitate to recommend him. At one point, one of our guests thought that we had a CD playing. They didn’t believe that it was a live act. They thought that Huw’s voice was fantastic. Huw really did make our wedding extra special so thank you. Christine
Amazing voice! Very polite! Did us proud! Thank you. Anthony Cahill
