"We are so proud of our local talent Rhys Tolhurst - he is much more than a singer; he is a soulful writer, he engages his audience with his youthful charm & personality and is very generous with his time! Would you believe that he entertained our crowd for hours as his contribution to our Relay For Life fundraising cause ? And the Champagne Girls loved him!! If he is ever in town we all flock to see him."

Rhys provided us with an absolutely amazing performance at our wedding. He is a true professional and was fantastic to deal with during the very stressful lead up to the big day. He really paid attention to what we wanted and ensured the music matched the style of our wedding perfectly. We had so many comments from our guests expressing how much they enjoyed Rhys' performance. We were actually disappointed that we had to leave for our photos and didn't get to stay an enjoy the full performance. Rhys has an amazing voice and is a very talented musician and entertainer. We would definitely recommend Rhys to anyone, not only for weddings, but for any type of function... you will not be disappointed!
