We hired Clay to perform for our parents' 50th wedding anniversary in Half Moon Bay. We had originally planned an outdoor party but had to pivot to an indoor setting for 16 guests ranging in age from 3 to 73. The experience was intimate and joyful from the start. Clay engaged comfortably with our guests as he set up, and was extremely flexible on start time as people arrived. He had done advance research and preparation on his set list -- everything from Neil Young to Taylor Swift -- but happily took requests and even performed a short medley of children's songs specifically for our little one. He performed with professionalism, a sense of humor, and of course tremendous talent.
Clay was absolutely the highlight of our weekend, and I cannot wait to have another opportunity to throw a great celebration and work with him again.
Details: General event / party • 25 guests or fewer • 31 - 50 years old • 51 or older • Vocals • Guitar • Variety • Outdoors

His ability to "read the room" allowed him to craft the perfect musical backdrop, setting a fantastic vibe for the entire evening. His talent for acoustic performance, blending intricate fingerstyle guitar, emotive vocals, and the occasional harmonica flourish, filled the space with the right amount of energy, soothing the soul while uplifting the spirit. He possesses an extensive repertoire, ranging from standards to contemporary hits, and is known for delivering engaging and memorable sets tailored to the moment, even taking requests.

Clay was absolutely INCREDIBLE from start to finish. The planning was seamless and since we have had the opportunity to see him perform live previously we only told him the details of our party (size, age range, time) and let him use his expertise and experience. He did not disappoint! We've seen him perform so we knew of the skill and talent , but he absolutely knocked it out of the park. His set up was professional, his song selections were perfect and at the end everyone was singing along. I would hire Clay Bell again and again.

We hired Clay for our wedding and we were blown away. We requested a bassist and percussionist and they were both excellent. He made sure he knew what we wanted, even learning a request for us. He really made our special day so much better.
