Udoh did such an excellent job making our private birthday outdoor dinner with his musical talent a moment, night, and year \to remember. By far the best day of a tough 2020 year. Mr. Udoh worked with me on a short time frame to make everything come together wonderfully! I sent Mr. Udoh an email on September 24, 2020 for an event on September 28, 2020; he showed up to perform one amazing musical night. He was prompt with the song lists and accommodating my requests with songs for the special private outdoor dinner party for two. Prior to the day of the event, there were no signs of rain in the forecast. However, that quickly changed to one wet rainy evening. Lucky enough we were under a tent for the outdoor dinner in the backyard. Again, I was worried throughout the whole day due to the forecast showing more rain during the actual time of the event. It did rain, but Mr. Udoh still showed up with all of his musical equipment gear. Mr. Udoh performed beyond my expectations and stayed for an additional hour. Due to the short time frame prior to the dinner, he was able to prepare before our arrival on time! We commented numerous times throughout the night and afterwards about how great the musician was! Thanks, Mr. Udoh, for making the private outdoor birthday dinner for two a special night to remember! The birthday man enjoyed his 35th birthday night. What an amazing musician! Overall, Udoh’s musical stylings made our private outdoor dinner really excellent, and he was extremely easy to work with throughout the whole short timeframe of planning this event. Thank you again for such an amazing night and one to remember. I look forward to working with you again. BOOK HIM!!! He will not disappoint you at all!

Sharnita, first of all, thank you for kind words. It was my pleasure to honor the occasion. Such a thoughtful and fitting surprise for your special guy. I was inspired by just seeing his reaction and the shared love between you both in these times of uncertainty. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Thanks for your support. Udoh O. 🎷

Udoh did a phenomenal job delivering a tailored musical experience for a loved one. Coordinating this surprise from several states during a covid crisis was no small feat but he made it happen! Super concise communication, very reasonably pricing, and tons of flexibility helped make Udoh the perfect choice for me! Thanks so much and I look forward to using his services again!
