“Jess is a brilliant musician, with a fantastic sound. She’s got a great repertoire and accommodated all of our requests. All our guests commented on how great she sounded. Highly recommended!”

“When I began looking for a singer to play at my wedding I was really keen to find someone who would complement the warm and uplifting atmosphere I was hoping to create for my guests. Jess was truly perfect for that. She has the most chillingly-beautiful voice – completely authentic yet full of soul and seemingly able to adapt to almost any style of music. For me, the key to Jess’s performance is how utterly genuine and unaffected she is. I felt so lucky to have her at our wedding; every time I hear her sing the hairs on my neck stand on end. I’ve lost count of the number of comments we had from guests who were all blown away by her and I really can’t recommend her highly enough to other brides looking for an incredible singer and guitarist to add a special something to their big day.”

“My lovely Dad walked me down the aisle to the sound of ‘The Promise’ by Tracy Chapman – performed by the amazing Jess Childs. We also all sang ‘I can’t help falling in Love’ by Elvis again performed by Jess – it was amazing and incredibly moving.”

“My husband and I had decided that we wanted to try and find some entertainment to fill in some of the time between our wedding breakfast and the evening reception. We wanted something that everyone would enjoy, that wouldn’t be too intrusive and would still allow our guests to mingle and talk amongst themselves if they wished. We (well, mainly me- I’m sure other brides will appreciate!!!) spent hours scouring the internet, but acts were either far too expensive or just not what we were looking for. A couple of months before the big day, I stumbled across Jess Childs at a wedding fayre and I knew from the instant I heard her singing that it would be perfect for our wedding. From the word go, Jess was a pleasure to deal with. She was friendly, enthusiastic and tailored the performance (times, duration and songs) so that it was exactly what we wanted. She went out of her way to ensure that we were happy. Her performance on our wedding day was stunning- she has a beautiful voice, whether you want it as ‘background music’, or to listen to it in silence. Her singing added very much to the atmosphere, and even my grandad (who cannot stand any kind of music!) had no complaints! I lost count of the amount of people who commented about how amazing Jess was. Thank you, Jess, for making our wedding day even more perfect. We could not have asked for a better bit of entertainment, and I am so happy we found you! We definitely recommend booking Jess Childs for any occasion!”

“We had the pleasure of Jess singing at my 50th birthday party. We absolutely loved her. She has a beautiful tone to her voice and a lovely relaxed manner which suited our summer party. She even performed a song that was unfamiliar to her but which was special to us (advance warning was given)! We would highly recommend Jess and can’t wait to have her back!”

“Jess has been a mainstay of the Sunday lunch experience at The Felin Fach Griffin for more years than we care to remember, and has in turn continually adapted the range and style of music she provides to suit all of our musical needs elsewhere during that time. Whatever the occasion – be it a Burns’ Night sing along, one of our low key weddings or a taster evening for local producers – Jess always comes up with the goods (and has even been known to learn a range of Welsh language songs when required too!). Likewise, it simply isn’t Christmas Eve until Jess fires off a few festive covers for both customers and staff, all of whom have grown accustomed to the sound of her discreetly soulful voice gently warming the atmosphere over the years. The value she brings to the Felin Fach Griffin brand as a whole was particularly emphasised when she resumed her monthly sets recently following a break around the birth of her first child. So many customers remarked on how nice it was to have her back, bringing her unique sound and co-operative manner in tow, and we couldn’t agree more.”
Julie Bell, The Felin Fach Griffin
“We were lucky enough to have Jess sing at our wedding and my goodness she was amazing! She tackled a new song for us that she had never sung before and it sounded incredible. Her voice is simply stunning and she had everyone in the room mesmerized. I could listen to her sing all day, every day!”
