Feedback

  • Excellent !!! -- Bill W, Charlotte, NC, 3/12/2008
  • This is the second time that I have used music provided by Lori Spencer. I have used solo instrumental guitar before and was extremely pleased and felt that for this event a vocal duo was more appropriate. The Sultry vocal duo of guitar & vocals was exceptional, the vocals were amazing and the amount of music coming from one guitar was hard to believe. They interacted with the group, were very professional, were friendly, and had a great and varied selection of music. I would definitely recommend both the instrumental guitar from Lori and the vocal duo Sultry to anyone and will use them again in the future. -- Josh C, Charlotte, NC, 3/5/2008
  • Lori was extremely professional and performed a great mix of standards for our event. She came highly recommended by the venue as a talented guitarist that had played instrumental arrangements for multiple corporate events over the years. She handled special requests made by my clients and had a great smile and attitude. She arrived long before my guests and had a very quick and unobtrusive setup. As our dinner meeting began, she made a very quick and quiet exit. I will definitely hire Lori for events in the future. Joshua Director of Client Relations -- Josh C, Charlotte, NC, 2/22/2008
