Fun and engaging

We booked Ray for our community Halloween party, and he was fantastic! He arrived on time and put on an excellent show for the kids. His performance was lively, engaging, and he really knows how to get children involved and having fun. Great job, Ray, we’d highly recommend you!

Entertaining

Good rapport with the children. Songs and variety of musical instruments are entertaining and interesting.
For 30 minutes performance it’s quite pricey.

Thank you for your review!
The entertainment of original songs, unique rhythm instruments for kids and intimate performance and passion for including kids in a special way makes for my reasonable value costs. My professional performance is much more than just singing songs, it’s a high level of engagement that is always memorable. Appreciate your booking and hope to bring value to your daycare in the future! Be well, Mr Rayz
