Claire's Birthday Party in Kent Town, Sep 2024

We booked Richie for my sisters 30th country themed birthday, and he absolutely overexceeded our expectations! From the very beginning, his communication was top-notch, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. The night delivered one of the best performances we've ever seen. Along with Richie he had a band accompanying him, the vocals were incredible, and the musicianship was nothing short of perfection. Each song was performed with energy and passion, and their interaction with the crowd made the night even more special. They really knew how to keep the energy high and had everyone on their feet! What topped off the night was Richie learnt a very niche country song (Firefly theme song, for any of you browncoats out there) at my request to surprise my sister with, which had her crying with happiness and was by far the highlight of her entire birthday!! If you’re looking for an incredible artist that will make your event unforgettable, Richie is it. Highly recommend!
