• Alan played beautifully, providing background music to our backyard party for 2 hours, despite the extremely hot weather. He was also very accommodating, staying longer than we originally planned. Everyone enjoyed his performance and the ambiance he creates. I'd definitely recommend him. -- Mark S, Jersey City, NJ, 6/7/2008
• We hired Adam to play the cocktail hour preceeding our wedding reception on June 17th, 2005. The only flaw of the evening was when my husband and I were stuck outside taking pictures while Adam was inside playing! What we did manage to catch was just as beautiful and superb as we knew it would be. Our guests who had been there for the entire cocktail hour raved about him. He provided the perfect mood to begin the happiest night of our lives. His talent is undeniable, he was extremely professional, and he happens to be a truly nice guy. I hope to have the pleasure of hearing Adam play in the near future, and my husband and I recommend him very highly! -- Kathryn R, West Orange, NJ, 6/17/2005
• Adam was professional and pleasant and provided lovely music for our wedding. He was willing to add Uruguayan music to the reception which personalized it for my husband who was from Uruguay. -- Lynn T, Englewood, NJ, 10/24/2009
