Response from Paris Gibbs Duo:
We thoroughly enjoyed playing at your country club, thanks for all your hospitality!
Martin Paris came to my house to ply a small private anniversary celebration show for my wife. I was out of town and wanted them to play some specific songs and deliver a couple of gifts for me. Not only did they do this for me but they did it with a very small amount of notice. My wife enjoyed every bit of the show and said that they were very talented. She also said that they were some of the nicest people she has talked to in a while.
I would enthusiastically recommend them for any of your live music needs, from a small front porch acoustic show (such as mine) to playing a professional event in a formal venue; I am sure that they will not disappoint! Thank you guys so much for helping make my 14th wedding anniversary special for my wife even though I was not able to be there.
Response from Paris Gibbs Duo:
It was an absolute pleasure and honor to play for such a beautiful celebration! Thank You Justin!
I put together my very first fun run event. I wasn't sure what to expect. I knew though that I wanted a certain kind of atmosphere that would encourage our participants to hang around, share in dinner and spend time together. They provided the exact atmosphere I was hoping for. They are exceptionally talented and just a pleasure to have. I have more events to plan and they will be the first people I call. You absolutely want to book them if you are looking for a talented, professional and fun group to play at any event. We were blessed to have them.
Response from Paris Gibbs Duo:
We were so honored to play at such a great fundraising event! Thanks for your hospitality and for booking us!
Incredible duo. The music was incredible! Blended in with the holiday atmosphere and my guests. I couldn’t have asked for more! I will be using them again frequently!!
Response from Paris Gibbs Duo:
So appreciate it Larry! We really enjoyed playing at your party. Look forward to seeing you again, thank you!
