AMAZING!!!

JF gained a number one fan after playing at my cousins 40th surprise party!!!!
The thing I loved most was the variety of songs on his playlist and that I could choose the songs I wanted played. It was a great night. We had people dancing and singing along. JF is a great guy and I would highly recommend him for your next party

So talented

Jean Is so talented. I had him perform at my husband’s 40th cocktail party in our backyard. He had a beautiful set up, a carpet, speakers, his own chair, super funky setup.
He sent me his repertoire of music to choose from and I selected songs. It was perfect. His voice, his spirit, his performance was jaw dropping. All the guests complimented him.
Thank you Jean!

Wonderful and Talented

I cannot say enough good things about JF! My family hired him for our father’s memorial. He was quick to respond and able to accommodate changes in our event schedule. He offered a comprehensive list of songs and was happy to take some requests that weren’t on his list. On the day of the memorial, JF was well prepared and wonderful to work with. He is a very talented guitarist and singer. Our father loved all music, especially classic rock and JF was able to play every song beautifully. He truly made our father’s memorial such a special day. I would hire him again in a heartbeat for any event. Thank you JF!

The Rockin Krolik was WONDERFUL!

I am an art director at a non-profit organization that works with young adults with developmental disabilities. Last week we threw an annual art show, in the theme of 'The Beatles', and had a Woodstock style concert. The Rockin Krolik was extremely supportive and investive throughout the whole process. He was very accomodating in learning new songs for our concert and was very pleasant to work with. Everyone at our event loved hearing him play. He has an awesome voice and plays beautifully. We will definitely use his talents again for our future events.

Absolutely fabulous !!!

JF is an entertainer through and through ! This incredibly talented Durham-based singer-guitarist met and exceeded expectations by providing a "surprise" entertainment experience at our friends 25th anniversary intimate cocktail event. JF's pocket play list is endless spanning many genres and eras. JF is a person of soul and his personality shines through while getting to know his audience. Definitely a musician and entertainer that many of us will book again. Thank you so much JF you are one in a million!!

Wonderful experience!

We were treated to a surprise performance on our 25th anniversary. JF strolled into the backyard dinner party and serenaded us for an hour. He has a wonderful voice and his acoustic guitar playing was a perfect accompaniment. Great songs choices that matched our evening! He was personable and engaging with warm conversation between songs. Highly recommend!

Large Outdoor Setting Venue- Great performance - Thank you

Today marks the first year anniversary of the Georgina Waterfront Harvest Run.
Ross Fattori and I, as race directors, would like express our heartfelt thanks for accepting to perform live at our large outdoor venue, on a windy day, and for having to relocate during your set because of a slight power issue.
We applaud your eagerness to handle all of that with a great big smile!
Your musical contribution and enthusiasm put smiles on the faces of hundreds of runners, vendors, volunteers and visitors and helped to make this a joyous and memorable day for everyone.
The feedback that we received was overwhelmingly positive.
Wishing you continued success in your musical journey!
- Celine

The Rockin Krolik ROCKS!!!!!!!

JF is a wonderful musician. I found him singing in a pub once, and sought him out to book him for my private party. I've since booked him to play in the lounge I own - for the grand opening, no less! We have every intention of bringing him back soon. His variety of musical knowledge is en point and we love hearing him sing!

Original music straight from the Heart

It’s always a pleasure to have JF aka the Rockin Krolik visit and play at the cafe. Whether inside the cafe or outside on the porch, his incredible voice and guitar playing has kept many an audience member captivated. He comes with a large repertoire of familiar covers, but it’s his original songs about wisdom drawn from life and love that truly strikes a chord.
