Jake is the best! I hired him for our engagement party and everyone loved him!! Guests at the restaurant were asking for his business card!! People thought there were multiple people playing live music and were shocked to realize it was one man: Jake! We absolutely love Jake and will be hiring him for future events! He plays a great mix of music!

We contacted Jake for a last-minute civil wedding that was taking place within 24 hours—and he responded immediately. From the start, he was eager to help, incredibly understanding, easy to work with, and exceptionally professional. On the day of the event, Jake drove an hour to our destination and was perfectly punctual. Upon arrival, he greeted everyone with warmth and humor, and even offered to help set up—wow! When he began his performance, we were completely elated. To say Jake is GOOD is a serious understatement—he is truly the best. His artistry is top-notch and we are beyond happy we chose him. Jake was the missing piece to our puzzle. We are forever grateful and thankful we found him. He will not disappoint—he is simply AMAZING. From now on, Jake will be our go-to for all future events. Thank you, Jake. The Bride and Groom said your performance will never be forgotten.
