I can honestly say that Miguel is a sensational and refreshing breath of fresh air in an industry filled with far too many performers that allow ego, complacency and disregard to reign – He is not only exceptionally talented and vocally proficient but boasts a killer smile and engaging personality to boot that had our clients – both female and male – enthralled, engaged and on that dance floor eating out of the palm of his hand. His Band are one of the tightest I have heard in a while and their professional approach, unassuming demeanour and willingness to deliver beyond expectation are rare traits. The Lab Rats look forward to working with Miguel more often in the coming months.”
