"I hired Matthew for my 50th birthday party and am so pleased that I did - he was exactly what I was looking for! I selected him on the basis of the quality that I saw on the website, and felt that he was even better in person. Being somewhat fussy, I was apprehensive about finding someone who could meet my needs, but Matthew suggested that we had a meeting before my event and we chatted through my ideas and preferences - as well as the things that I did not want! I came away feeling that he understood me and that we had connected, which was incredibly reassuring, and I was not let down on the night. Matthew is an incredibly talented singer and guitarist - recreating songs in a way that not only reflects the original, but often putting his own twist onto them in a way that keeps them fresh and interesting. His use of the loop pedal was particularly impressive! It was of note that so many of my guests commented on how good he was - they had a great time and really got into the swing of things as he gradually turned up the tempo and got everyone dancing. In doing so, he took requests, interacted with the crowd, showed a good sense of humour and came across as a fun, friendly and approachable guy. He played a wide range of songs, all of which reflected our discussion beforehand, with a great balance between those you might expect at a party and some 'surprises' that may be less common but worked equally well - if not better! I would definitely hire Matthew again, and would recommend him to pretty much anyone: he has a list of nearly 500 songs to choose from, and has a strict policy of not having a 'usual' setlist - instead preferring to engage in a discussion of what you'd like, so would be able to cater for all tastes - even mine! Thanks so much Matthew - you turned a great night into an incredible night!"

Thank you so much for your review Ian - I was genuinely touched! I’m so happy that you enjoyed yourself, especially as I know how anxiety-inducing it can be to organise your own birthday party and feel responsible for everyone’s fun! I loved the atmosphere created by your guests and it was such a pleasure to see you and your friends all dancing together. I hope I can play for you again one day! - Matt

"Dennis was amazing! Dennis was super responsive and so easy to work with. He showed up early to practice and to the event. He kept us in the loop with what he needed, when he would be there, and any other details. He was an exceptional leader and musician. As a worship leader, he was a strong leader and the rest of the band loved having him around. He connected with the band, the church, and the whole community. His presence felt natural in our space and it felt like he had been there for a while even though it was his first time at our church. We were honored and blessed by him as a musician, as a leader, and as a singer."

"We were fortunate to have Jorg perform at our wedding, and he truly exceeded all our expectations. From the moment he began his power set at the entrance, it was clear we were in for a treat. His performance was nothing short of spectacular, setting the perfect tone for our special day. During dinner, he transitioned to a jazz set that added a sophisticated and enchanting ambiance to the evening. His talent on the saxophone is undeniable, captivating our guests and making the night even more memorable. Jorg was incredibly professional, courteous, and sweet. He worked with us to ensure everything was perfect and tailored to our preferences. We couldn't have asked for a better musician to enhance our celebration. If you're looking for a talented saxophonist who can bring both energy and elegance to your event, we highly recommend Jorg!!"

"We booked Chris as Mellow Guitar for our wedding ceremony to play gently in the background while guests were coming in and getting settled. It set the tone beautifully. During the registration signing he played Cavatine, Keith's favourite, and it created a lasting memory. "

"Un moment de pure magie! Lors de notre réception de mariage, Stephan a littéralement transcendé l’atmosphère, créant une ambiance à la fois chic, festive et romantique, exactement ce que nous espérions. Sa maîtrise de l’instrument, son sens du rythme et sa capacité à lire l’énergie de la salle étaient tout simplement exceptionnels. Tous nos invités ont été conquis, certains nous ont même dit que c’était la plus belle performance live qu’ils aient entendue lors d’un mariage. Grâce à lui, notre soirée a pris une dimension unique. Un immense merci pour ce cadeau."

"Will definitely book again! Very professional and an amazing singer! From our initial communication and during the event we couldn’t have asked for better entertainment. Loved Riley’s genres of music and guitar playing. We felt like we were at a private concert. Thank you a special night!"

"Phenomenal Performance! Thanks so much for performing at my Grandma's memorial gathering. What a great experience! My family really enjoys jazz, and you really brought it with your tributes to Miles, Trane, Nelson, Shorter and so many others. I will definitely recommend you to anyone looking for live jazz sax. You were phenomenal ! "

Hello Niqki and thank you so much for the kind review. I really enjoyed entertaining your family and friends. My only regret is not having the opportunity to meet your Grandma. Everyone I spoke with told me she was a huge jazz music fan. Best Regards, Jeff Moyer (Beacon Street Jazz)
