Jude Potter Music
"Jude was a phenomenal musician and a pleasant person. He was super easy to with and very flexible, and or course he put on a great show. Would definitely hire again!"
Miss Julie Bryce
"Wow, I love it! It’s a wild ride and sometimes it seems to be laughing at the listener… then there are the boats of jazzy pillows that carry you across the rapids. Very cool"
Rokstedy
"Piano bar every night on Carnival Paradise and Carnival Dream. No place else I’d rather be on a cruise with the talent of Rok. What a great performer"
Paul Cohen Piano
"Paul was great! He was accommodating when we asked him to play a custom song for our wedding ceremony and his personal jazz music was perfect for our cocktail hour. He was quick to respond to our emails and was the most professional vendor we worked with, we highly recommend him!."
Dusty Knapp
"Dusty is missed not only by me but by the countless music lovers from his home area who loved hearing a real pro. I do not hesitate in recommending Dusty Knapp for any and every situation needed."
Cold Weather Company
"I can't say enough wonderful things about Cold Weather Company! Steve was my primary contact and he responded to every email promptly. He answered yes to all requests. The band arrived on time and agreed to stay for a late night acoustic set. They were consummate professionals. The music is why we chose the band, and it was amazing & beautiful to hear live. They were the perfect blend of background music that you really want to stop your conversation to listen to, however their cover of Let It Be was so moving, it silenced the room. We could not have chosen better for our fundraiser, all 150 guests were entertained! We are still hearing rave reviews."
