Jared’s communication was perfect leading up to the event, and he arrived early to ensure a smooth setup. He was friendly and professional, making everything easy. He delivered our requested entrance song flawlessly and played a beautiful variety of music. Throughout the event, he maintained a romantic atmosphere from start to finish. I would wholeheartedly recommend Jared to anyone looking for a beautiful background melody throughout the entirety of their event.

What a pleasure to have Gerald play at my husband’s 50th birthday party. Everyone loved it. He played background music low enough that the crowd could have conversation, but loud enough to hear and enjoy. We had people sit it the living room to relax and just listen to his music. I was cracking up when somehow I realized that I knew almost all of the songs and they were an ecclectic mix of pop, 80s, jazz, easy listening, but he played them soft and at a different tempo sound, that your have to be listening, and then all of the sudden you’d realize, “Hey, I know that song!” and it was amazing!!! I think I even realized at one point, he was playing this cool, smooth jazz sound, and then I realized it was the theme song to Mario Kart!! 😂 It was so amazing!! And when I looked over at Gerald he just had this little grin on his face. LOL Give him a call for your home events, corporate events, whatever. You will not be disappointed!!

Gerald was great! he was very professional and his pricing was unmatched. He had a very extensive song list and played the piano very well. He was able to bring such a great ambiance to my mom's birthday party. I would highly recommend and no doubt be booking his services again.

Gerald played at our parents outdoor 50th anniversary dinner party. He was professional, friendly, accommodating & very talented. He was great with communication and very responsive. He added a beautiful ambience to the party, in fact, everyone was disappointed when he ended that we asked and hired him to stay an extra hour. My family all complimented how fantastic it was to have him there! Thank you Gerald for helping to make our parents anniversary even more special.
