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!"
John Drake
"John performs to the crowd—if they’re mellow he’s mellow. If they’re having fun he kicks it up a notch with them. Great blues and blues rock. His original songs are crowd pleasers."
Ahsaas Chaudhary Live
"Ahsaas was absolutely fantastic! We hired him to perform for my father-in-law’s 80th birthday, and he sang beautifully for a little over two hours.
I had asked him to create a mix of older classic songs along with newer, well-known favorites that the senior generation would enjoy, and he completely understood the assignment. His song selection was perfect, his voice was beautiful, and he created such a warm, joyful, and nostalgic atmosphere for the celebration.
Our family and guests thoroughly enjoyed his performance, and he made an already special milestone birthday even more memorable. I would highly recommend Ahsaas for anyone looking for a talented singer for a family celebration or special event!"
Dead Man Bordeaux
"A true performer. Delivers with such passion the audience was captivated"
Jeff Tucker, solo / Jeff Tucker Band

Island Troy Singing/Guitarist
"We had our annual event on the beach and Troy was the hit of the party. All the right musical vibes for our beach theme. Troy had many options for us."
