The quality and professionalism of Dave's performance contributed greatly to the success of my parent's anniversary party. His skillful guitar playing and excellent song selection provided a tasteful backdrop, uplifting the liveliness and enjoyablility of the event. I would ask Dave Baker to perform at future celebrations, and can recommend him without hesitation.

Dave is a wonderful guitar player. He made my husband's birthday party extra special. He was very gracious - even rearranging his own personal plans to play at our party with very short notice. I would highly recommend Dave!

We hired Dave to provide background music for our holiday luncheon. He was entertaining and engaging without being obtrusive; i.e. everyone could talk over the music. I would highly recommend him for any event.

We were extremely pleased with Dave Baker's performance. His musicianship is certainly of true concert quality. We had a number of musician friends who commented on his beautiful playing. His choice of music was perfect. Very enjoyable to listen to without being intrusive to conversation.
Dave Baker is obviously a true professional, and a very pleasant person to deal with. He was very prompt in responding to emails. We would certainly hire him again. A few of our guests took his name for their own future events.

I was very pleased with Dave. I was a little nervous since I only hired via this web site. I never heard of Dave prior. We had a 300 person dinner. Dave played for the cocktail hour and also most of dinner. He was very accomodating and professional. He made sure he was not too loud or too soft. Great job!
--Bob C.

I would give Dave a 10 out of 5 for accommodating our needs. A couple of weeks before our wedding we had to change one of our songs and Dave was very helpful in picking a new one as well as sending a sound clip. Everything was great and we couldn't have been happier!!

Dave was on time and flexible with his performance when asked to continue playing. He played excellent classical guitar for our event of 200 people, and I received many comments on the quality of his playing. He is a talented and pleasant person all around. I would have him back any time!

dave played a great set of music at our wedding - both during the ceremony and cocktail hour. he was very willing to play the songs that we were interested in hearing and was quick to resolve a song misunderstanding prior to the event. his talent aside (which is undisputable), he was extremely professional and pleasant to work with. i would highly reccomend him based on these qualities and his willingness to cater to the wants and needs of the client. thanks again dave!
