“Gary, many thanks for your fantastic
show last Thursday at Pinewood
Studios for The Alexander Mann
Solutions Gala Dinner, words fail us!
When can you come back?”
Paul Kilpatrick, Alexander Mann Solutions
“Every song he sang
was word and note
perfect and confirmed
the belief of many in his
audience, now surely
his ‘fans’, that he is the
best young singer of the
Sinatra era of melodies
in the country, if not the
world... his presentation
of all of these well-loved
classics was performed
with a panache which
would have pleased
‘The Guv’nor’ himself.”

to be complimented on your success
in bringing a ‘big sound’ to such a
small gathering without any loss of
richness. Finally, thank you for dealing
with some of my more robust guests
in a light-hearted and amusing manner
- it added greatly to the evening’s
entertainment.” Bill Moores, Birthday
Party at Motcombs Private Rooms,
Knightbridge

to perfection and my client is quite
delighted.” Clive Thomas, Prestige

our New Year’s Eve dinner party.”

wedding. You were fantastic and
everyone commented on the band.
Thank you also for your personal input
- I thoroughly enjoyed myself and hope
you did too.” Michelle de Young,
Wedding
...and keep on saying!
“Gary - what can we say? A touch of
class. What you and your band put
together on the day was absolutely
perfect, classy and memorable. Our
guests loved it and we loved it too.
Thank you” Richard and Debbie,
Wedding

best cabaret artists I have ever seen!
Thank you and I look forward to seeing
you again.” Eric Cockman, 80th

day that we’ll remember always.”
Vanessa, Bride at Chilston Park
Country House Hotel
“We have been inundated with thank
you cards and all saying (just as we
knew you would be!) what a hit you
were. Fantastic! “The icing on the cake”
was mentioned more than once! We
have been fans for years and you were
everything and more we hoped for... you
made the evening. You have a wonderful
talent but more importantly you are a
lovely person. Thank you so much.”
Mr and Mrs Willey - Golden Wedding
Anniversary
“We just wanted to say a huge and
belated thank you for playing at our
wedding on 3rd June. Many people
have said to us how wonderful the band
was, that it was ‘proper music’ and they
could actually talk as well as listen.”
Linda Verrell, Brighton Wedding
“And not only is he a brilliant
singer; he also puts the audience
at ease. A lot of artists are not
good at being themselves when
not singing – Gary is as relaxed
chatting as he is singing, and
he’s funny too. Don’t miss him.”
