Feedback

  • Rim was a delight! He played for 43 guests at my mother's 80th birthday party. He entertained us with a wide variety of dinner music, both on the piano and accordian, (and added vocals to some). Rim was accommodating in everyway possible, professional and certainly talented. My family and I were extremely pleased with Rim and his music. He made one more special memory for our party. Thanks Rim! Sandy T. Brighton, MI -- Sandy T, Canton, MI, 11/26/2011

  • We all loved him! He was very polite, accommodating and professional. He was right on time and did all of our requests from polkas to Sinatra to the chicken dance. We would highly recommend him and give him 10 stars! -- Gail M, Dearborn Heights, MI, 10/2/2011
  • What a professional. Absolutely perfect. Our party was a large formal engagement party and Rim did everything right. He was on time. He looked great. He was prepared according to our agreement with music to our taste and with special music honoring our out of town guests. The party lasted longer than expected which was not a problem. What I most appreciated about Rim was that he didn't need to be the star of the party. Major talent without the ego. I strongly recommend him and would not hesitate to use him for ANY occasion. -- Kay R, Ann Arbor, MI, 11/4/2006

I would recommend you in a second. Thanks again. Munday Lindsey, Birmingham, MI -- Munday L, Birmingham, MI, 1/28/2006
