Birthday Party (Adults)

"Darryl Armistead performed for my mother's 80th birthday party. He was awesome. I requested that he play some Lou Rawls songs for her along with others as well. . Well, Darryl gave a Lou Rawls type of concert. AlthoughI hired him to perform for 45 minutes, Daryl performed over two hours. My mother and her guests loved him. He loves to entertain. He came to a banquet hall large enough to accommodate 185 people, and he brought ALL microphones and speakers and his keyboard. He even had a wireless microphone for me to use. Darryl is a true professional with a great deal of talent. If you hire him, you will not be disappointed."

"Darryl is very professional and personable which made working with him an absolute pleasure. I hosted a cocktail party for my husbands 50th birthday and Darryl provided the entertainment(solo piano). He was spectacular.He kept my guests engaged with his extensive song list which spans across many genres. He bought his entire catalog and took request. My guests loved it! They danced all night. Darryl saw how much fun everyone was having that he went well beyond the contracted time. My guest continue to rave about how our party was one of the best they have ever attended. Thanks Darry for making my husbands 50th an unforgettable event!!

"Darryl was amazing. He played for four hours (he was accommodating enough to stay a bit longer because everyone was enjoying him so much) and really did an amazing job. It was my parents' 40th anniversary and made the event that much more memorable. I'm trying to do d a reason to have him come back and play again!"
