Paul was such a nice touch to my intimate wedding. He kept in contact with me from the time I hired him, until the day of my wedding. He sent me multiple samples of the song I requested, and it sounded even better in person. I would recommend him to any event where you want a touch or live music. I can’t say enough wonderful comments on how special he made our day.

Mr. Whitt made our day so very special. His professionalism was above and beyond and he was incredibly responsive and open to questions and suggestions. He was early and even softly played music for our guests before we arrived. He is a true artist and one I highly recommend for anyone looking for beautifully composed, melodic, and heartfelt music for their event. Bravo sir! I couldn't have asked for a better musician the my big day.

Paul came out to our sports club for a special event. We did burgers and beers and wanted some live music. Paul was wonderful! He showed up on time and put on a great show for our members out by the pool! We look forward to working with him again!

Paul was so wonderful in helping my partner and I make our courthouse wedding day even more special. He was so helpful in helping choose songs that would be fun, and performing all the requested songs so perfectly. Paul was also a lifesaver finding a new place when the original venue ended up being unavailable. So professional and responsive - I cannot recommend his services enough.
