CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Tom Parella was fabulous. He defintely "made" the party. We will use him over and over again!!

Tom went above and beyond any expectations we had when hiring talent for our wedding and reception. He played every song we asked for at both our wedding ceremony and reception. And he was able to easily crossover from folk to contemporary to vintage 60's music. Every member of our wedding party, including our Minister, was taken back by his talent and his easy-going personality. And we were especially happy that he was able to play any request from our guests both effortlessly and authenically. We liked him so much that after the wedding, we ordered his album, "Sessions at Camelot", off Amazon.com and we love it. We hope to hire Tom again in the future, maybe for our first anniversary party. -- Jim and Justine

Tom was fantastic. We could not have asked for anyone better. All of our guests loved him. His voice and talent is great. He sounds as good (even better) than the clips on his website.

Tom was great. He was on time and set up and ready to go well before the start of our event. He was very responsive and accomodating to the role we had him take in our open house.
His musicianship and professionalism was outstanding and I would recommend him for your event.
