Cloris is not only an amazing artist but very professional. His performance was flawless & perfect for our romantic evening. He was professional, and was completely set up & ready at start time. We loved him so much we were trying to make up an event to host just so our friends/family could enjoy him as much as we did! He will definitely hear from us again!

We hosted a wine night for our residents at CityCentre and Cloris honored us with his music. He not only played his saxophone but his flute and the sounds were perfect for the ambiance! Great feedback from all of our guest! We would love to have Cloris back for another event!

Experienced listing to Mr. Grimes at my brother's wedding. His attention to detail was superb to say the least. His extensive musical background was showcased through playing the perfect songs back to back. This is the first time I've witnessed Mr. Grimes but I was told that he has done multiple family events. Definitely looking forward to hearing his performance again.
Note: Mr. Grimes showed up on time, had his own equipment, and practiced safe social distancing measures as this wedding was held during COVID-19.

Cloris did a fantastic job! He was hired for my brother's military memorial service. He arrived ahead of schedule and prepared. He's professional and performed with excellence. He made a sorrowful event sweet with sounds from his sax!

I saw, actually l HEARD, Clorox Grimes’ for the first time preforming at an event Macy’s (at the First Colony Mall in Sugar Land)was holding on 6/10/18!! OMG, l was shopping along and then l heard this wonderful sound of music.... l hear it closer and closer as l walked through the store and just had to find out what Macy’s was using as the source of this awesome sounding smooth, jazzy, music so l could find the station or add it to my play list... what a surprise to find/see that it was coming from this ONE man !!!! l was mesmerized and just stood there listening and enjoying the sound!!! He is awesome!! l will definitely look into hiring him for an event if l ever need entertainment for it!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
