"DJ John The Frank is highly professional. He was the DJ at our wedding and made sure there was a special atmosphere throughout the ceremony, the reception and till the last dance. We would highly recommend him as he puts a lot of attention into the smaller detail, asking specifically what songs we wanted to listen to/dance to. Good communication for arranging everything and he also send his personal favourites for some advice when we asked. Keep the good vibes coming!"

"Having John as an acoustic performer and DJ at our wedding was such a great decision!! He took care of sound set up for both our ceremony and reception, and played a great set during canapes - we missed it while off taking our photos, but our guests said it was absolutely fantastic. His lighting was amazing, and he played music that we requested in advance, as well as read the room and added songs in to keep our guests dancing. We had some unusual song requests, which were a bit of a challenge for him to find, however he made the effort to find them and to play each song at the exact right moment we requested. Thank you so much John! We would recommend you to anyone."

"Ons ken al ‘n tydjie vir Francois aka “John The Frank”. Ons weet hy het ‘n passie vir musiek, maar hy het ons elke verwagting oortref. Hy was so ingestel om alles perfek te hê vir ons groot dag. Vanaf die diens, sang tydens diens, onthaal met “speeches” en dansvloer musiek. Sy klank was perfek!! Tot die ouer garde kon alles hoor 😉 Ons het van so baie van ons gaste terugvoer gekry dat die “DJ” uitstekend was. Alles was op tyd, perfek en ons kan nie genoeg dankie sê nie. Ons sal hom aanbeveel vir enige paartjie wat ook hierdie groot stap neem. Dankie ook dat jy ons dag so spesiaal gemaak het!!"

"John the Frank was amazing. Very accommodating and professional. Adapted so well to what was happening around and read the crowd well. His live music was amazing, we had him play live during dinner and games at our wedding and everyone could not believe it was a live acoustic set...it was that good. Many thanks to him."

"We had the honor of using John The Frank for our wedding. Not only did he entertain the guest with live music, he also read the “dancing crowd” very well and played music that perfectly matched the vibe. His music knowledge is incredible and he has a way to make everybody feel comfortable. His attention to detail is impeccable and everything was perfect. Will definitely recommend him for any function"

"We got married on June 1 at Elandskloof outside Greyton. John was an absolute pleasure to work with from day one. He is incredibly professional and fast with communication, which makes everything just that much easier. We were also very grateful for every piece of advice he gave. We didn't have a specific 'playlist' and it wasn't necessary either because John read the guests so well and the party kept going until we stopped it. I can highly recommend John as well as his acoustic with the canapés. Thanks a lot John!"

"We would highly recommend John the Frank. He went above and beyond to ensure all of our music needs were sorted - and then some. My sister came to me after a catch up with John The Frank and said "Your DJ is so cool and on it - so organised!" and that kind of peace of mind is beyond valuable to a bride, and the people around. I never had to think twice about a song choice, a cue or anything - it was done. He also has an excellent sound system and quality, mics, set up etc.
His set up, initiative and ability to read the room made him such an epic music man. He continued with crowd-sourced funds as no-one wanted him to stop playing. Such a high 5-star recommendation from us."

"John the Frank (Francois) het die musiek en klank op ons troue aangebied en dit was van hoogstaande gehalte. Sy diens is professioneel en hy sorg dat daar aan elke verwagting voldoen word. Hy het akoestiese kitaar gespeel en gesing, en was ook platejoggie later, 'n wen-wen kombinasie. Hy kan die groep goed lees en het uitstekend die musiek daarby aangepas en terselfdertyd ons voorkeure en afkeure in ag geneem . Ons sal hom vir enige troue of funksie hoog aanbeveel!"

"John was the DJ and performed live music at my wedding in March 2019. Offering a "dual package" and being super organised and efficient, took a load off our shoulders. I was so happy with his service, we danced from the second the music came on until the venue closed! All my guests raved about him too. I highly recommend John the Frank for any event or wedding."

"John did a fantastic job for us! He was DJ for our wedding, but also took responsibility for setting up three live acoustic acts. He is clearly very experienced both as a DJ and as a soundman, as he did a fantastic job on both fronts. As a DJ, he was very responsive to our tastes and made sure that the music for the day reflected our favourite music. He was also great at reading the mood of the crowd and making sure that the dancing kept up momentum throughout the night. As a soundman, he put the artists at ease with very professional soundchecks, and the sound levels were great. John is also a very polite, professional and calm individual, and very easy to work with. We were delighted that we entrusted our wedding music to him, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly."

"If you still have over 50 people on the dance floor and the night has ended, it is due to the great music. Our guests didn't want the night to end. I don't think I have seen so many people on a dance floor for a wedding. Thanks to John The Frank for making our wedding so enjoyable. He has all the music you are looking for and knows when just to play it. Thanks again."

"Thank you so much for making our wedding day such an incredibly festive one! Your friendliness and your understanding of the whole process meant that we knew we didn’t have to stress and we could trust you with an important part of our wedding - the vibe!! Many people commented on your live music during Canapés and said they loved it and that you have an excellent voice!! We really had the best time, and for everyone to still be on the dance floor at the time of piano man definitely says something!! Even my 86 year old grandmother was lighting up the dance floor which was just so special!! Thank you again! ~ For all you future brides and grooms, without a doubt we will definitely recommend John the Frank as a DJ!! "

"John The Frank did a wonderful job as our wedding DJ. He was very professional and communicated well with us before the wedding, as well as with the venue and our violinist to make sure everything was perfect on the day. He did a great job of reading the vibe of the party, and our guests were on the dance floor until the venue closed! Thanks so much for adding to our day!"

"Thank you JTF for making our special day even better! From the get-go you made us feel comfortable and was so easy to get along with. Your professionality and knowledge put us at ease, knowing we made the right choice. The live set was amazing and created the atmosphere we hoped for. Throughout the night, a superb playlist kept everyone on the dancefloor and catered to a variety of musical tastes. Thank you!!
You definitely can't go wrong booking JTF for your event!"

"Only a joy to work with someone so multi-talented, friendly and efficient!
JTF is an all rounder who makes everything he does so well, look totally effortless. For our wedding JTF provided technical equipment, live music as well as spot-on tunes that kept the dance floor going all evening.
In the weeks leading up to our big day, JTF made us feel confident that he really understood what we wanted and on the day he proved that we were right - we had a wonderful ceremony and a fantastic reception.
Thank you John, we appreciate the outstanding job you did for us!"

"On March the 17th, I was privileged to have my wedding and I had made the choice to have John the Frank as my entertainment. We had discussions beforehand as to what music I would like to have played at the venue, and he kept to the guidelines and included music I would not have thought about or did not think about but was perfectly in line with the event. My guests could not stop speaking about how wonderful his voice was during the live set, he also took the time to do a number with my sister-in-law, who is also a singer. He is professional to the tee, at eleven o'clock, everything was set up, and working. He has more than one rig, and this works to the advantage of any wedding. Thank you John for all your hard work, it is much appreciated."
