Chi Town Duo
"These two musicians were very professional and provided a fantastic mix of different types of artists performed flawlessly. If you’re looking for just a run-of-the-mill acoustic duo, these are not the gentleman for you. Highly recommended and well worth the rate we paid."
BackForward / Adam Cartwright
"Talented across the board!
We were blown away by Adam’s professionalism, attention to detail, musical talent and fun factor at our recent party! The cherry on top was his ability to take great quality professional photos! Adam was a great MC who took my DJ playlist inspiration and ran with it to create the perfect playlist for our party. And we can’t forget the Taylor Swift meets Coachella rendition of Happy Birthday which flowed into Jack & Diane. Such a fantastic addition to the event!"
