The Manchester Flamenco Guitarist - Spanish & Flamenco Guitarist Feedback

“Greg was absolutely superb for our wedding day. He played the ceremony and drinks reception, and it's safe to say, is extremely talented. A lot of our guests commented positively on his music and it really gave a relaxed feel to the ceremony. The fact he can play both Spanish Guitar and the Oud was also a bonus as we got the best of both worlds! In summary, I highly recommend! ”

“He was superb on the day, it was everything we expected and more - many people made comments saying how good he was - I totally agree. The day was a great success. If I were planning a function I would choose him again. I would be grateful if you would pass these comments on to him. Also thank you for your assistance in this, it helped the day go smoothly. ”

Nikki Morton, Fox Hayes Solicitors

“A belated but big 'thank you' for a wonderful session on the 20th June. Your guitar playing was outstanding, and the sound that you created with the oud was remarkable. Fantastic all round. I hope we have occasion to book you again. You are a truly talented musician and we are honoured that you could perform at our celebration. ”

Geoff and Ali, , none (June, 2015)

“I wanted to reiterate my thanks to both the guitarist and dancer for a fantastic performances at the Gallery today. They were both absolutely superb and received excellent feedback from visitors and staff alike. Around 670 visitors watched the performances which are some of the highest visitor figures we’ve had for a music and dance performance. Visitors gave the guitarist a standing ovation after his one hour solo set which I’ve never seen in the Gallery. Some visitors sat in front row seats from 12:30 - 3:30pm just to get the best view! Thanks for your help with facilitating these performances. We’re very much looking forward to his return to the Gallery on the 20th August. ”

Jo Keenan, Liverpool Museums, (July, 2016)

“Absolutely brilliant - a really talented musician and was exactly what we hoped for!! Our guests were also all really complimentary about Gary and his talent - just perfect! ”
