"We held a Charity Music Festival on July 9th, Kaspar arrived early, was extremely friendly and polite and engaged with the other acts who were playing at the event. We cannot fault Kaspar musically either, I highly recommend him, great voice and fantastic on the Guitar(s), we definitely will rebook if we stage another event in the future." -Stephen, Inspire music fest

Absolutely!
