    “We recently had Jonathan play guitar at my grandad’s funeral, and I honestly can’t thank him enough. He is such a lovely lad, so kind and respectful, and he went above and beyond to make sure he did everything we had requested. He took the time to learn all the songs we requested, and played them beautifully, it was exactly what we hoped for and more. His talent and warmth really shone through, and it meant so much to our family. I would recommend him to anyone without hesitation.”

    “Jonathan Diskin deputised in the absence of our bassist for a corporate function gig at the Queens Hotel on 23rd November 2024. Jonathan was incredibly well prepared which resulted in very little rehearsal time required. The gig itself was very well received and Jonathan was faultless in a high pressure environment - ever the true professional!”
