• OUTSTANDING!!!!!! -- Gaby O, Newark, CA, 8/29/2009
• Christopher Kilday was exactly the musician we needed to complete the arrangements for an elegant cocktail hour and sit-down dinner at the Cantor Arts Center on the Stanford University campus. I loved listening to his music-artistry in his technique, and his beautiful selection that added so much to the ambiance. He was the right combination of both a professional musician and a personality that led to you to believe you had included him as a new friend. I would recommend him heartily. GigMasters was a terrific way to research and find the right person for our event. -- Gwen A, Palo Alto, CA, 8/14/2009
• Christopher is very gifted musician and artist. He has humbly accepted that gift and cultivated it to an exceptionally high level of the purist form of art. He is very personable and a fine gentleman. We all enjoyed him and his beautiful music. We are looking forward to future events with Christopher Kilday. ~ Dr. T. T.
