Tobias made our wedding ceremony so special! Thank you for performing our favourite song.
Eireann
I saw Tobias perform in a pub in Teddington. What an amazing night! He got the crowd going with songs for all ages and everyone had such a good time, there’s nothing like live music 🙂
Jacob Stone
We LOVED having Tobias play for our wedding as part of his duo. They kept our guests entertained all evening with crowd-pleasing and high energy songs that got everyone singing and on the dance-floor! Tobias built a great rapport with the audience and the duo performed requests amazingly well! The day wouldn’t have been the same without their music and we can’t thank them enough. Would definitely recommend!!
Jasmine
Tobias is a phenomenal musician! He did a gig in Teddington, London, and it was the best gig I’ve been too. His range – both in music styles and the reach of his voice – is incredible, able to please everyone, and he had so many encores which just emphasised his talent! He had everyone up and dancing the whole night! I would 100% recommend Tobias to everyone.
Thanks Tobias!
Will
Tobias is a fantastic musician with the ability to adapt his performance to any occasion. Whether it’s getting everyone singing and dancing on the dance floor or creating a serene environment in a restaurant, I’ve seen him do it all. 10/10 would recommend.
Gabie
Tobias played solo at our small wedding in Lake Como, we couldn’t have been more thrilled with his performance! He hit the brief perfectly for a mellow acoustic aperitivo set and then an up beat party set for the evening. We weren’t sure how successful a one man band would be in pumping up the energy but also didn’t want a massive band for a small party of 25: we did not have to worry at all, Tobias is excellent at reading the vibe of the room and his energy and music had the whole crew dancing and singing along in no time! He was super accommodating including last minute set up changes due to rain and he had great communication throughout our wedding planning. We literally cannot recommend him enough!
Thanks Tobias!
