REVIEWS
Charlie and Farisya of Little Fingers Music are great interactive children’s performers who go beyond showing up for a gig, loved by kids and parents alike. They go into festival crowds to entice them to watch the show, and the kids love their energy and environmental messages. We have hired them at multiple festivals in Hamilton for many years now, and will continue to.
