His performance was loved by everyone
Catherine G booked John Gough for their event in Lancashire • October 2024
“John played at our engagement party. He was great at contacting us before the event and helping us select the perfect playlist. We had guests of all ages and we had compliments from everyone about how good he was. Everyone really enjoyed listening to him.”
Deborah D booked John Gough for their event in Lancashire • June 2024
“John was great! He was totally independant and just quietly and efficiently got on with entertaining us. He played something for everyone and all commented on how good he was. He learnt some songs for us and did them brilliantly. He made our night and we cant thank him enough!”
Kirsty A booked John Gough for their Wedding in North Yorkshire
“John was fantastic from the moment of booking, until the end of his sets, which our entire wedding party definitely did not want to happen. Cue the ‘one more song’ chant John was very professional over email, flexible to our timings, learnt some songs on our request and had a very extensive track list- the perfect mixture for a wedding! Thank you so much John, we loved every minute. You truly are amazing at what you do! ”
Emma R booked John Gough for their Wedding in Cheshire
“I had been thorough in looking for the right acoustic singer guitarist for our wedding day, and had exhausted a few different entertainment websites only to come across Alive Network - so straightforward with great variety, plus easy communication I couldn’t recommend John Gough enough if you’re wanting a fantastic upbeat musician that gets so many guests singing and dancing. Not only that, our timings were held a bit back and he displayed complete understanding and professionalism. We were also impressed at his communication leading up to the big day, he reached out with empathy to make sure we were happy with song choices & to confirm things. A big thank you from Shaun and I for being the best entertainment at our wedding evening.”
