About
My rate is $110 per hour. And that is reasonable compared to larger entertainment companies, who I've worked for in the past. I provide superior professional services for any combination of Face Painting, Balloon Animals, and DJ/Karaoke/Party Games at a great discount price. I provide all music equipment and set it up myself. I am great with kids and adults. I have experience teaching kids as a volunteer and as a paid instructor. Let me take good care of your special occasion. I have worked in the entertainment industry for more than 5 years. I've always enjoyed meeting people Music and entertainment are my passion. Party Entertainment is something that comes naturally to me and I am very good at it. Whatever needs you have for the event, I will take care of them. I am very adaptable. I primarily work at kids parties. However, I have a great deal of experience hosting Trivia Events and regular Karaoke Nights at different bars (including: The Caddyshack in Plainsboro NJ, Palace of Asia {formerly Kixx Sports Bar} in Kingston NJ, and The Hopewell Valley Bistro and Inn). I have a very charismatic and fun demeanor on the mic. I’m also very highly rated, with nearly all 5/5 Stars on reviews verified by Thumbtack. I always take great care to accommodate guests and especially the customer at every event.

Mr. Applesauce was a pleasure to have at my son's first birthday party. His face paintings were very artistic and beautifully done for each of our guests. Let's just say we had many happy baby sharks at the party :) He was sure to keep the kids entertained and happy with his balloon twisting the entire time. I will definitely be using his services again in the future! Thank you again Brian!

Thanks Brian for making our party lot of fun. He was very patient even when people kept asking him for face paint even after his time was over. He played nice music. Not only kids but also adults liked his face paint art. His balloon Art was top class. We liked him very much and I recommend him for any gathering.
