Her performance was exactly what we had envisioned. She went the extra mile – handled all requests. I will gladly consider her for our next endeavor. Reasonably priced and a great talent.

Marilyn played for our wedding ceremony and was absolutely fantastic! She already knew most of the music we requested and met with us prior to the wedding to go through the whole ceremony.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on August 6, 2010•From Dripping Springs, TX

Marilyn was wonderful and an excellent performer. She met with us twice to plan our 50th anniversary celebration and helped us with a special song my wife wrote. We met in her home and rehearsed songs we had requested. She is great musician and a lovely person ---- also fun. We will work with her on future events!! Cheers, Marshall Jennings

Review by Kristen E.

Wedding•Reviewed on November 1, 2008•From Richmond, TX

It was a great pleasure and an honor to have Marilyn play and sing for our wedding reception. She has an exceptional voice and rather large song list. She set the mood for a perfect New Orlean's style brunch keeping everyone entertained. She is definitely affordable and extremely professional. Marilyn is appealing to her audience not only because of her talent but also because you can see her passion and love for music while she is performing. I would love to hear her sing and play the piano again!

Review by Maggie B.

Wedding•Reviewed on October 11, 2008•From Austin, TX

Phenomenal job! Exceeded expectations. We were expecting a: sax, keyboard, bass guitar, drums, and vocalist. The talents were multi-faceted to include: flute, acoustical guitar, as well as a wide range of music. We got so many complements on the band and they really set the tone for the evening. The music was perfect- great sound, obviously practiced, and willing to accomodate any request if possible. They arrived early, were dressed extremely professionally and treated both us and our guest with great respect and enthusiasm. We would use them again and again!!

Awards Night Party•Reviewed on September 22, 2007•From Austin, TX

Marilyn and her group were GREAT!!! I hired her to perform at my parent's 50th wedding anniversary. My father is a musician and thoroughly enjoyed playing with the group and by the evening, they were exchanging #'s for future gigs. Marilyn and her group were the icing on the cake and I would recommend her to anyone.

Wedding•Reviewed on July 20, 2007•From Brownwood, TX

Marilyn is a "must have" for any party or social event that needs a touch of sophistication to enhance the atmosphere. She played at our rehearsal dinner, which she was happy to travel 3 hours outside of Austin to come to. Her ability to sing and play piano is nothing short of phenominal; you will be blown away by her soothing sounds. Marilyn was also exteremely accomodating to our requests of songs by our favorite artists, like Diana Krall, Frank Sinatra, Begee Adaire, and Tony Bennett. And she was even able to play several requests by our guests right on the spot because she has such a vast repertoire of musical knowledge. So we only have rave reviews for Marilyn!

Wedding•Reviewed on July 7, 2007•From Austin, TX

We live in New York and made most of our arrangements via the internet. After finding Marilyn, we had a nice email correspondence. She was always prompt, curteous and accomodating. I met with her the day before the wedding to review music choices. You can't stump her! She arrived early, set up and ready to go. She transitioned beautifully through the meal from classical to our favorites, both piano solo and vocals. She has a great voice, a great attitude and looked lovely as well. I could not have been more pleased. A "sure bet" during a stressful time!
