music on demand:
Kellie from Pete McGregor Entertainment asked me some days ago for the tune 'Heaven' by Brian Adams for a client - so I thought, it may be a good example (see below).
Any special requested tune (or backing-track) I can create on demand in max. 3 days from scratch ( for a small extra charge ) - and : the client can get a copy of the complete song (as performed) on CD - in any required style and sound. I offered some of my wedding-clients this kind of service and they used it and gave me great response - so it seems to be, that there is some kind of a market for stuff like that...

Thankyou for your follow up. My night went extremely well, and highly recommend Grete - he was great. Unfortunately he had to compete with the rugby which was a bit of a shame for him, but still very enjoyable.

Kellie, Pete and team thanks for providing two such great acts for our wedding in April.
Please can you add these customer comments to the website?
Grete Fischer, a friendly and charming act, provided wonderful solo acoustic guitar for our wedding ceremony. Then played guitar over a backing track during the wedding breakfast. In both cases he responded to the mood and environment to generate a fantastic atmosphere whilst remaining in the background. Thanks Grete for helping to make our day unforgettable.
Thanks, again.

Dear Peter,
Yes, the party went very well - the weather was beautiful, just enough people came (45), the food - and drink - was delicious and Grete was very satisfactory. He was prompt, open to suggestions, amenable and very professional. We enjoyed his music, the range of his repertoire and would recommend him to others who were having a similar event.
Many thanks
