Wilko is a musical soloist for hire in Brisbane, QLD.
Wilko works the acoustic soloist circuit around Brisbane, and the appeal is range. Rock, pop, whatever the room wants, delivered by one person with a guitar who can read what a night actually needs. Some gigs want a soundtrack you barely notice over dinner conversation. Others want someone driving the energy from the front. Wilko handles both without making it look like a different act. A good solo performer is worth more than a bigger line-up in the wrong room, and this is the sort of booking that suits a function where the guest list is modest and the music still has to be right.

Wilko did well, he was set up and playing well before the party started He played a good mix of quality music and was very easy to deal with and flexible to meet the needs of our party If there was a slight constructive feedback the music could have ramped up a bit in the last couple hours This is by no means a complaint but merely a suggestion for future events Have a great Xmas

Everybody at the party commented on how good you were and just did not want you to leave, and as asked, you stuck around for an extra few hours as everyone was enjoying the music so much. We had such a ball

Everything went well last night.
Wilko was really good, everyone was happy with the song list. He was very friendly, and we would definitely consider booking him again.
5.0Joeri · Aug 2016
Everything went quite well. Wilko was right on schedule and performed very well and professionally as requested. Wilko is perfect for small events like these, background or even when the volume turned up as a main performance. I would certainly use his services a next event.
Thank you for your performance.

I have been really busy and I apologise for the late reply. Wilko was really great performing at Steven’s Birthday. He made the best of the ‘freak’ storm that came through, moved his gear without complaint, mingled with the crowd and played a great variety of music which everyone completely enjoyed. It ended up being quite and intimate night huddled all in the lounge room listening to his sweet voice and some nice tunes.
Thanks for your great service.

Wilko was fantastic, we received positive comments from the audience.
From my perspective, he was advised of what to do in terms of mature audience etc and he targeted the music, volume to that audience very well.
He is personable, approachable and I find that he is a pleasure to deal with. I would highly recommend him for any job!
Cheers

The function was great We were really happy with Wilko. He is a fantastic musician and entertainer. He played the right kind of music and had good balance throughout the gig. It would have been easy to be too loud with such a small crowd but he seemed to manage well. He mingled with the crowd during his breaks too and was a great sport when we introduced him to my sisters, who were a bit surprised!! :)
He was playing to a small but appreciative crowd, at least a third of which are or have been musicians/entertainers themselves and they all thought he was awesome. One of my sisters commented that she could listen to him all day. A great compliment.
We will certainly be booking him again, should we need live entertainment.
He really was great! :)
Kind regards

Hey, Wilko was awesome. Received lots of positive feedback and comments from people at the function and can’t speak highly enough about him myself. Created the perfect laid back atmosphere for everyone after a massive day
