We were always on the same page regarding our song choices. Professionalism: He arrived an hour before the event to set up his equipment well ahead of time.

We hired Mike to perform at Chief Executive Group’s CFO of the Year event at The Harvard Club in New York City, and he was outstanding from start to finish. Mike was extremely easy to work with, professional, responsive, and completely understood the tone and flow we needed for a high level corporate event. His music elevated the atmosphere of the evening and added a refined, memorable element that our guests truly appreciated. The performance was polished, tasteful, and perfectly suited to the venue and audience. From a planning perspective, Mike made the process seamless, which is invaluable when managing a complex event. I would highly recommend him to any corporate event planner looking for a musician who delivers exceptional quality and professionalism.

We were so lucky to have Mike play during our wedding ceremony! From the moment we connected, he was incredibly responsive and accommodating, working with me for months to curate the perfect playlist. He went above and beyond by learning new songs, trimming pieces to fit key moments, and even performing a beautiful, obscure melody from a video game that was special to my husband. He was there early to set up and was just on it with every detail needed for a perfect performance.The music was flawless and added so much heart to the ceremony. It’s everything we dreamed of.Our guests are still talking about it! I can’t recommend Mike enough—professional, talented, and a true joy to work with. Thank you so much for making our day special.

EVERYTHING! What can I say except he was perfect from start to finish. Responsiveness, ease of communication, helping us with advice, and then the actual performance blew everyone away and built the energy of our wedding ceremony.
