Ro Harrison was early and already set up when I arrived at the restaurant. He played and sang nicely despite a lot of noise on Valentine's Day. I would definitely hire him again for such a romantic evening. Excellent job.

We had put out a very last minute request for a musician and Harrison got back to us promptly! Made the whole process easy and smooth. Our party enjoyed his music and he played to the audience, accommodating requests and the flow of the event. Thank you!

I cannot recommend Music by Harrison enough. We were on a short timeline for our wedding, and he was incredibly accommodating. He’s very talented and expertly elevated our wedding ceremony with his beautiful instrumentals. We are so happy we booked with him, and plan to reach back out if we ever have future musical needs! 10/10 experience.

Harrison was a wonderful asset to our backyard party. He played music everyone of all ages enjoyed. He came on time, set up and was ready to go when the party began. I would use him again if I have another event.
