• Nick performed for my parent's 50th anniversary party on Saturday night, and he was beyond all expectations and made it such an unforgettable and special evening! His voice was so truly remarkable and enchanting that we knew we were in the presence of a very talented artist and performer! He brought to life the music of Caruso and Pavorotti, and many other greats, to a crowd that is dedicated to those masters, and everyone in the crowd of close to 200 guests were effusive with praise! We highly recommend Nick to anyone who would like to be swept away into a magical world of pure musical delight! Words don't do justice his talent, authenticity and professionalism! -- Rosalina F, Cleveland, OH, 9/4/2010
• Nick is fantastic WOW!! BRAVO!! His singing talent is absolutely fabulous; it just doesn't get better than him. Also Nick is a very cool cat and completely professional. If you need a singer for your event you will not be disappointed with Nick Palance! -- Landa M, Newport Beach, CA, 3/10/2010
• Nick is an extremely talented performer. He was easy to work with, and even with his busy schedule, he responded quickly to emails and calls. At our small, casual gathering, Nick performed above and beyond our expectations in every aspect. Authentic, courteous, accommodating and professional, we couldn't have chosen a better performer for Christmas eve. With an amazing vocal range and flexibility to musical styles, he was able to please everyone in the room. Thank you Nick for help in making our holiday event extra memorable! -- Rachel E, Ontario, CA, 12/24/2009
• Nick was awesome. He was available on short notice for my Father's Funeral in Santa Barbara and he was extremely accommodating even when I asked if he could change one of the songs with just a day's notice. He is amazingly talented and there wasn't a dry eye in the house when he sang. He was also very professional and comforting during a very difficult time for me. Nick did a wonderful job of making my Dad's service as memorable and special as my Dad was. I highly recommend Nick for any event! He is truly a gifted and talented performer and a gentleman. -- Susan N, Santa Barbara, CA, 2/23/2009
• Nick made our Celebration of Life an event to remember. He was personable, accommodating and above all talented beyond our guests wildest expectations. His voice is magic! Our friends and family could not express how pleased and surprised they were to hear this most talented tenor performing solely for them. The next day when some of our family/friends encountered him in the hotel, he was friendly and commented how much he enjoyed being a part of our Celebration. Special thanks to Jennifer and Vince...bravo! Hire him for your next event, you will be ecstatic that you did. -- Fortune B, Las Vegas, NV, 11/22/2008
• Nick was friendly, helpful, extrememly accommodating given our very last minute request to travel and appear at our party, and his performance was brilliant! Our guests were blown away! I can't believe he was here singing just for us - he should be on stage at the Met or something (and I have no doubt that he will be some day so engage him now while you still can!!). His voice is simply beyond description. -- Kate N, Tucson, AZ, 8/17/2008
• Nick Palance is simply the best performer I ever had work for me. He made himself available with a long layover between engagements. And, he followed my directions perfectly. His singing and personality is still being talked about by my wife, whose landmark birthday we were celebrating and our many friends and family who attended the party. During Nick's performance, he directed his singing to one of our younger guests who has a long history of suffering with depression. Nick elevated her mood and she smiled the rest of the evening, saying it was the best party she ever attended. Thanks Nick for your sensitivity. You have an amazing talent I hope to see again. -- Richard W, San Diego, CA, 1/12/2008
• NICK WAS AMAZING!!!! HE ADDED AN EXTRA CLASS TO THE WEDDING. THE GUESTS ARE STILL TALKING ABOUT HIM. BRAVOOOO NICK!!!! -- Robert T, Van Nuys, CA, 6/30/2007
• Nick was amazingly professional. He has a great talent, and the crowd absolutely loved his performance. We would hire him again in a heartbeat. -- Kendra T, Yorba Linda, CA, 11/17/2007
• 5's across the board for Nick because I can't indicate anything higher! Nick is warm, soft spoken and a professional in every sense sith an amazing voice that sends chills. His rendition of "To Where You are" at my daughter's wedding brought tears to both men and women and his "Ave Maria" was simply inspiring. We received many compliments from guests, the minister and the organist who said that Nick was by far the most talented vocalist they had heard in a long time. There are not enough words to express the feeling he added to the service and the true joy his singing gave my daughter on her very special day will be remembered always. -- Katy T, Coronado, CA, 7/7/2007
• Nick is an amazingly talented tenor (and his voice is even better live). He sang several songs at our wedding ceremony, as well as a few special requests for our reception. He was such a professional and our guests loved him. We couldn't recommend him more highly. -- Molly N, Los Angeles, CA, 9/30/2006
• From the first bid we submitted through the end of his performance, Nick was responsive, enthusiastic, accommodating, and fun. He was the OPPOSITE of "high maintenance." We had terrible weather and unexpected last-minute problems with the sound system but he was always upbeat. He made us all feel great and especially our guest of honor. His performance was brilliant both musically and in terms of pure showmanship. His vocal talent is top rate. -- Stacey G, Denver, CO, 1/21/2007
