Feedback

  • We are so glad that we hired Tom to perform at our wedding. He was completely professional, and the guests at our wedding repeatedly commented on how much they enjoyed Tom's music. I would whole heartedly recommend Tom to anyone wanting to add unique ambiance to their event. -- Clara L, Salesville, OH, 7/19/2008
  • Tom was a joy to work with, and made me look good as the event coordinator. He made selections that appealed to all ages, and happily took requests. His performance was wonderful and was thoroughly enjoyed by all. We would gladly book him again and look forward to working with him in the future. THANKS TOM! -- Lana M, Solon, OH, 6/8/2008
  • Tom is an excellent musician. He played the kind of music we requested and played it beautifully. He was easy to work with and added a lot to our event. I would definitely recommend him. -- Scott S, Canton, OH, 12/15/2007
  • I can't say enough about Tom. He was excellent. We had a small wedding reception(no dancing) and needed to entertain our guests. He was wonderful. I asked for pretty and romantic music and he really delivered. I would reccomend Tom highly. -- Linda C, Hartville, OH, 8/8/2008
  • Very responsive and professional. Very talented performer. I would definatey hire him again, and plan to in the very near future. Thanks. -- Patricia P, Cleveland, OH, 8/31/2009
  • Great Guitar player! Tom added that extra element to our wedding ceremony. We got lots of comments at the reception about his playing. Very professional and very talented! -- Peter M, Stow, OH, 9/26/2009
  • Tom was amazing. His inclusion in my father's memorial service was absolutely perfect. He is extremely talented. I would give him a 10 out of 5, if it would be possible! His renditions of gospel standards and Chet Atkins tunes were spot on. We all enjoyed his music tremendously (my dad would have, too). He showed up earlier than anticipated and was extremely professional. HIRE THIS MAN!!!! -- Teri H, Lordstown, OH, 11/4/2009
