He has a vast song-list and kept our guests entertained for hours with acoustic tunes - he is an exceptionally talented musician and a great singer - I hope I am lucky enough to see James play again one day!!"

"James Scott was employed by us as an entertainer for a duration of 4 years spanning from 2013 through to current 2017 at our CBD Beach House venue. Throughout his time working with us James not only proved to be a skilled entertainer who was reliable, trustworthy and well presented but an asset to our venue. He generated new business, created a following amongst patrons and brought a high standard of performance to the venue each time he attended. James was always reliable, punctual and happy to fill in slots on short notice as required. I would not hesitate to recommend James as an entertainer for any venue"

“James was the backbone of my daughters engagement, whether he was playing beautiful acoustic background music as the party attendees arrived, to full on party favourites as the dancing kicked off into the night. He is the man for any occasion. He read the mood of the evening perfectly and guided us to a great crescendo with his stunning renditions. We left the musical choice to James and it was a dream.
