Testimonials
As a promoter and social media partner, he’s brought me a range of great acts I couldn’t even imagine how to find of my own accord and given my brand huge exposure all around the world.
I have been working with Alex and Gigmann.com for over 2 years now, both as a performer himself at our Live Music Bar and as a promoter and booker for artists. Our successful collaboration throughout the COVID-19 UK Lockdown number 1 brought Live Music into the homes of numerous people.
His Live Act is a great mix of really popular songs to get your whole crowd engaged, great original tunes(should your venue allow) and really good knowledge of how to work the room to keep generating repeat footfall to his events.

I managed to reach a bigger audience which I couldn’t do on my own Facebook page and Alex is easy to work with…a great experience!
I had a great experience doing a live stream via Gigmann! I managed to reach a bigger audience which I couldn't do on my own Page. Alex is easy to work with and makes sure he does a thorough sound check before going live. A great experience!

Exactly what I need during lockdown!
I became increasingly worried that I was rinsing out my livestream audience during the lockdown period; which tends to have a knock on on my performance. This opportunity was incredibly welcomed and really helped to me reach a completely new audience, which also took an interest to my original songs!
It was so easy & pleasant to work with Alex as communication was always smooth and would definitely recommend Gigmann !!

All in all, a fantastic experience. I couldn’t recommend Gigmann with any more certainty!
Working with Gigmann was - in short - a pleasure. The attentiveness to detail and professionalism, with which Alex works, in no way overshadows how incredibly comfortable and easy to talk to he is. Every possible expectation was exceeded, and we were left feeling incredibly accommodated and satisfied. The stream itself was perfect thanks to meticulous tuning and tweaks - again, entirely catered for by the man himself. The vigilance - with maintaining a presence, moderating and considerate online sharing - ensured peak performance. We were left to focus on making the show as engaging as possible without any worries. The enthusiastic approach doesn’t end with the performance either, and the commitment continues long afterwards. All in all, a fantastic experience. I couldn’t recommend Gigmann with any more certainty. Zak Heaney - Ideal Forgery.

Gigmann.com were a joy to work with!
Live-streaming with Gigmann was my first ever stream. Going into it I felt slightly nervous, but Alex helped push the nerves away with his professionalism and his wide understanding of the social media world. I was able to reach a new audience and enjoyed every minute of it. If you are wanting to perform online , i would definitely speak to Gigmann. Was a joy to work with and made sure all the right measure were in place for audiences and myself to enjoy the gig! Top work!

"We can't speak highly enough of Alex from Gigmann.com. He has helped us massively and music is clearly where his passion lies.

I can’t believe my livestream has reached over 2.5k views in just less than a week! If you’re an upcoming artist looking to expand your following then absolutely get in touch with Gigmann – they get viewers from all over the world and have a huge reach.
It’s been such a pleasure to work with Gigmann! I had never done a livestream before so was quite nervous to begin with, but Alex was so friendly and informative throughout the whole process. I was so impressed with the huge effort that is put into promoting the shows, from shoutouts on Manx Radio to regular blog updates. I can’t believe my livestream has reached over 2.5k views in just less than a week! If you’re an upcoming artist looking to expand your following then absolutely get in touch with Gigmann - they get viewers from all over the world and have a huge reach. Very excited to work with them in the future!

Right through till the end of the livestream, I had constant support and I really look forward to working with Gigman in the future. Honestly a pleasure to work with someone so enthusiastic about what they do!

I can’t wait to work with them in the future and I’d recommend to any band or artist. Thank you. You’ve been fantastic!
Recently I was asked by Alex from Gigmann if I’d be interested in doing a Facebook Live ‘takeover’ gig through their page, as Alex expressed an interest in my music and had also hosted a gig for a band very close to me (EEVAH). I found that from there not only as a young artist, but also as a music student, that the services from Gigmann were done with the most professionalism and efficiency and Alex really helped and encouraged me throughout the whole process. The gig itself was so much fun and I felt at ease due to the unbelievable support from Gigmann and Alex, despite having only really spoken a few times. Gigmann are really passionate about supporting new artists and particularly as a music student myself I found the whole experience was professionally organised, fun, and much easier than anticipated. Gigmann has supported me a great deal even after the gig, sharing my live performance and my music across all of their platforms and I have gained a great deal of supporters from this experience. I can’t wait to work with them in the future and I’d recommend to any band or artist, particularly those just starting out, who need a helping hand in kickstarting their live gigs online. Thank you. You’ve been fantastic.

No one else has put this much effort into it or helped me out as much, I feel like the bar has been set higher for other promoters that I work with!
I recently did a live stream on the Gigmann.com Facebook page, and this was definitely the most views I've gotten whilst playing. My live streams normally only reach a few hundred at the most on the other pages I've streamed for. Also, Alex has been the best in terms of promotion and just the level of involvement with running the gig. No one else has put this much effort into it or helped me out as much, so that's been really great! I feel like I had so much direction and knew exactly what was expected of me. As a young, independent musician, this is really helpful for me, and I feel like the bar has been set higher for other promoters that I work with.

Working with Gigmann totally transcended the normal experience, I highly recommend working with them!
I highly recommend working with Alex Harris and Gigmann.com. A few years ago I connected with Alex when I searched online to see who was currently making music on my childhood home of the Isle of Man. I wanted to network with other musicians and make some friends along the way. My search very quickly showed me that if I wanted to accomplish this then I should send this guy Alex a friend request as his high level of talent, enthusiasm and professional expertise was very clear to see and hear. Now flash forward to five years later and I just had the experience of playing a livestream concert when Alex took me “Virtually” back to the IOM during the Covid-19 shutdown and connected me with a new audience there! It was a blast and so healing for me. Alex carefully and clearly lead me through every step of the process and I have grown from the experience .Thank you so much Alex. Working with him totally transcended the normal experience. It was fun, personal, as well as very professionally satisfying. Through these interactions I feel like I’ve really gotten to know him and I have to say that I really like him and what he is about. At this point I consider Alex a true friend of mine and I highly recommend working with him.

Such a hard working company and great to work with!
I really enjoyed partnering with Gigmann to do one of the live streams! It was a really fun show to do! Alex was very professional and was there to help at anytime! He helped me set the technicalities for the sound too, so it could be the best it could be for the show, which was awesome. Gigmann were really good with supporting the event and shared it across multiple pages on facebook and got radio involvement too! Such a hard working company and great to work with!
