Reviews for Gareth Bush - Singer Guitarist
Gareth is the best!
We hired Gareth for 4 hours so he played our cocktail hour and throughout dinner, and our guests absolutely loved him! Many of our guests came up to us throughout the evening to let us know they were blown away by all the song choices and his voice, and felt that he was such an awesome touch to have at our wedding. If you are on the fence about hiring Gareth for your wedding or special event, just do it— you will not regret it! 10/10 highly recommend!
Gareth is Amazing!!!
Thank you Gareth for making our day so memorable!
Perfect addition to our ceremony and cocktail hour!
Gareth Bush was Fantastic!
Exceptional performer
Wedding Ceremony & Cocktail Hour
Gareth has 1000 songs in his repertoire, which gave us a great amount of choice for the different components of our ceremony. He also offered to learn a new song if we wanted something specific, but we found we didn’t even need to, as there were so many songs that we already enjoyed and that were meaningful to us. We also used his song list to request a specific playlist for our cocktail hour.
We have only positive things to say about Gareth’s communication, punctuality, and performance. All of our wedding guests were really impressed and enjoyed Gareth’s music throughout the day.
Gareth, thank you for all of your help in making the day run smoothly!
AMAZING experience!
We actually surprised all of our friends and family. It was a BIG HIT! Everyone absolutely loved the music he was playing. Our friends and family were singing along, dancing in their chairs. It was perfect. Don't think twice about hiring Gareth. TRUST ME he is your guy! You would be super lucky to secure him for your wedding or event.
Thanks again Gareth!
Surprise Birthday Party a Hit!
Thanks Gareth!...can't recommend you enough!
Couldn't Be Happier
Great voice, great selection of songs, very respectful
I met him at a cousins wedding service and reception. He sounded awesome and played so many great songs.
I booked him for my future daughter’ in law’s bridal shower. He was on time, well dressed, clean cut and organized.
Best of all he sounded awesome and played at the perfect volume so people could chat if they wanted to.
Gareth is very respectful and easy to work with.
A few people told me they would like to hire him for their next party!
Thank you so much Gareth for making the party complete!
Wishing you all the best!

Meet the team
Hi Everyone!
I've been performing at weddings pretty much nonstop for the past 5 years and have had a blast. Well over 150 in the past couple years alone, crazy! Since my main page bio tells you what you need to know musically and professionally, I suppose I'll tell you a little bit about myself.
When I'm not working I spend most of my time going to concerts, running, watching the Raptors/Leafs, hitting up cool pubs and coffee shops and petting my dog Maple (she's the best). I've called Toronto home for quite a while and love it here. Big fan of spontaneous travel and trying new things. Conan O'Brien is my spirit animal. Still trying to process the final season of Game of Thrones.
Looking forward to meeting you at your future wedding!
-Gareth
