Feedback

  • Tom performed at our Holiday Open House at our firm and was outstanding. Tom is an exceptionally talented guitar player and added a level of sophistication and class to our important event. Additionally, Tom is a great guy. We will contacting Tom again in the near future for other events. -- Greg K, Cleveland, OH, 12/9/2010
  • We would like to thank Tom again for playing our small wedding reception in Pittsburgh. I hope you read this! We contacted Tom at short notice for through Gigmasters. He responded very quickly by calling personally and discussing what we wanted. He also took care of our special music requests which were very touching for our family. A highly recommended musician, you will not be disapointed. Thanks again, Mike & Denise Kuchta Finleyville, PA -- Michael K, Pittsburgh, PA, 5/21/2010
  • Everything with Tom was top notch. He arrived when he said he would. Which was a huge relief. Our wedding started at 6:24am so we needed everyone to get there much earlier to set things up. The venue staff arrived at 3:30am, our caterer and florist at 4:00am and Tom at 5:00am. He played magnificently as our guests were arriving, and when he playing "Here Comes the Sun" at sunrise; with the sun just breaking though, it was something to behold! In addition to being a fabulous performer, he was also very personable. Our officiant was also highly impressed. She made a point to get a business card from him. GREAT JOB TOM! -- Michael S, Kirtland, OH, 7/31/2010
  • Tom was amazing. His inclusion in my father's memorial service was absolutely perfect. He is extremely talented. I would give him a 10 out of 5, if it would be possible! His renditions of gospel standards and Chet Atkins tunes were spot on. We all enjoyed his music tremendously (my dad would have, too). He showed up earlier than anticipated and was extremely professional. HIRE THIS MAN!!!! -- Teri H, Lordstown, OH, 11/4/2009
  • Tom is very talented and truly added to our wedding ceremony. We had planned for an outdoor wedding and tried our best to keep it outside, but the rain wouldn't allow it.
