Review by Stephen I.

Wedding•Reviewed on September 24, 2018•From Newton, NH

Brian is absolutely wonderful! He is so easy to work with, totally does all his set up on his own. Is a magnificent musician and will play whatever you like! He is also a great guy, very friendly and social. Everyone really enjoyed having him at our wedding! I hope to have another event to hire him again. Highly recommend!

Review by Kate K.

Wedding•Reviewed on November 25, 2017•From Ogunquit, ME

We were thrilled to have Brian perform at our daughter's October '17 outdoor wedding in Ogunquit! Brian was exceptionally responsive to our inquiries and our requests during the planning process. I relied solely on Gigmasters, online reviews, and his personal website in hiring Brian as we live out of state and were planning a "destination" wedding. I feel like I really lucked out! Beyond being a talented musician with an extensive and eclectic repertoire, Brian is personable, professional and very accommodating! I sensed from the onset of this process that we would be happy with his performance and I would not hesitate to hire Brian again!
