We hired Nik to play for my husband’s 50th birthday. We’re so glad that we did! Nik is not only super talented, but he was so accommodating with our requests. He was a big factor in making the event a very memorable experience for everyone. We’ll be hiring him again, for sure. Thank you, Nik!

We saw Nik perform at Dowlings Pub and were blown away at how awesome he was! After his set, I asked him if he performs at private parties. I was in luck, he said yes and only had one opening which happened to be the date of my party! I instantly hired him that night! We were with a group of friends who also thought he was awesome! He arrived early to set up and only took two 15 minute breaks. I had 70 guests at the party. It was by unanimous consent that everyone loved him! He had the whole party up on their feet dancing and singing! He played a lot of classic rock songs which we loved. He was also opened to any suggestions of songs that we wanted him to play. He was the nicest guy to work with. He was so good that we extended his performance for an extra hour. The crowd kept chanting one more song! He is very talented and we were thrilled that we decided to hire him! We will definitely have him play at future parties.

Where do I begin with the incredibly talented Nik Rael? I met Nik over 10 years ago when he was performing acoustic at the 76 House in Tappan, NY. I was instantly drawn into his voice. He has such a cool, smooth vibe and played such a great mix of songs. From covers to originals, I loved them all. My husband (boyfriend at the time) and I became regulars there and brought many friends and family along to hear Nik. When we got engaged, we knew immediately that we wanted Nik to play at our wedding in some capacity. We asked Nik to perform at our cocktail hour and he was amazing! So many people complimented and still comment how wonderful he was and that it was so different and enjoyable listening to him. After my wedding, many of my friends also hired Nik for their weddings and special events. Over the years, I have hired Nik for several family birthday parties, multiple fundraising events and corporate summer parties. From intimate gatherings to large events, he was excellent and always one of the highlights! He is always professional, always on time and open to any special requests that we had. I would highly recommend Nik Rael to anyone looking for an immensely talented musician for their special event.

As an event planner, I work with many artists. Finding amazing 1-2 person singers/musicians is always tricky. Nik was recommended to me by two separate people. After listening to music on his website and talking to him, I immediately booked him for a wedding. To say I was impressed was an understatement - great voice, wide selection of classic rock/pop/standards, and extremely professional. Nik is now one of my official go-tos for corp events, social gatherings, & weddings. If he is available grab him!!
