WeddingReviewed on July 6, 2016From Galveston, TX

We have nothing but great things to say about Tom! We received numerous compliments throughout the wedding, and we are extremely pleased with his song choices! We had a sit down dinner with about 50 people, and he picked the right songs for the right mood! We highly recommend him, and we will definitely use him again!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on June 7, 2016From Houston, TX

I booked Tom as the musician for both my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He was so easy to work with and very accommodating. When I told him I was searching for a song to be played during the ceremony, he suggested a very beautiful and fitting song titled "Love Never Fails".....it was PERFECT! He was on-time and very professional. Many guests commented on how well he played [sadly I did not get to hear too much as I was taking pictures during the cocktail hour]. I HIGHLY recommend Tom!

WeddingReviewed on April 6, 2015From Galveston, TX

Tom played for our wedding in Galveston. He was perfect. He played everything we asked, and provided the perfect "atmosphere" music for our special day. The wedding was outside on our deck, and neighbors all around were stopping what they were doing to enjoy his music. He was absolutely perfect. He knew what to play and when to play it. Even though it was not "scripted," he began playing softly toward the end of the ceremony and the "kiss the bride" moment turned into a beautiful dance. He was so professional at being able to "read" the event and play what was appropriate. This is who you need to hire.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on December 3, 2014From Houston, TX

Tom was a sensational addition to our event. We had great communication. He sent us a songlist of 500 songs . We edited it, put it into groups for the different stages of our party: instrumentals during the pre-dinner social period, quiet, soothing music during dinner, while after dinner he played and sang fun music we could dance to. He also was able to fill requests from a diverse cross-generational crowd, anything from Johnny Cash to All About that Bass. We had Tom stay overtime as we were having a blast dancing. Hire Tom if you are looking for a talented, versatile and easy to work with musician. We truly enjoyed working with Tom!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on April 8, 2014From Katy, TX

Honestly, wish I could give more stars. We hired Tom for our wedding ceremony & cocktail hr., which took place at my father-in-law's house. Tom arrived early to set up and began playing music while the bridal parties were still setting up, well before the ceremony started. The first thing out of my mouth when I got to the venue was how amazing the music was! Tom was so accommodating through the whole process and the music was great! Everyone was talking about how great the musician was. I definitely recommend him to anyone who wants a great musician with a great sound! Thanks for making our event even better, Tom!

Tom did an excellent job at our event. All of the attendees were impressed with his singing and he took requests and accommodated folks throughout the evening. I would recommend Tom to anyone wanting a great performer - western or not - in the area. I have already given his info to our corporate planning department in case of future needs in the Houston area.

WeddingReviewed on July 5, 2012From Baton Rouge, LA

Our wedding was so enriched by Tom being with us. He is an incredible musician and vocalist and we were pleasantly surprised to find out that he was equally as genuine, sweet and personable. He was easy to work with and he make suggestions to help us with our song selections. he made us feel at ease the moment he walked into our front door. We received so many compliments on his performance .He truly made our wedding special! His voice was beautiful and you could just feel that he puts his whole heart into every song. We call it "divine intervention" that we were so blessed to have Tom be with us all on such a special day. Thanks Tom and God Bless!! :-)

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on January 1, 2013From Houston, TX

Tom was wonderful to work with via email since Day 1! He sent me sound clips of him singing the song we wanted to use for me walking down the aisle, and he did everything exactly as we wanted. I think he should be every bride's dream if they are looking for an amazing guitarist with great vocals!!!! Thanks again, Tom!!!! Marra

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on July 5, 2011From Fort Walton Beach, FL

We found Tom at gigmasters and after having listened to many performers we decided that based on his ability to play classical guitar instrumentals and also sing and play acoustic music that he was the best fit. Our wedding was a beautiful beach wedding in Florida and Tom played inspiring music against the backdrop of the ocean. After the service, he played cocktail music during the dinner and then Sang and played "I Do by Jason Brandt and Van Morrisons' Tupelo Honey for the Bride/Groom Dance and the Father/Daughter Dance. Jason and I could not be happier with our wedding day and Tom was absolutely phenominal. We highly reccomend him...

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on May 25, 2011From Corsicana, TX

Tom kept up excellent communication with us. I had no worries paying him in full before the event,even know he didn't ask for it. He is extremely professional and eager to help. He even helped the guys set up a tent that blown down. Tom is gifted with a pleasant singing voice as well as being multi-talented. He plays several instruments with a wide musical genre. The guests loved him!! He played every song they threw at him. They even played a game where they tried to stump him and couldn't. I loved using Tom because he was able to play some classical/soft rock while the guests were arriving and then switch to more up beat songs later. A GUARANTEED WIN!!

Valentine's Day PartyReviewed on February 15, 2011From Houston, TX

Tom worked with me though a rather daunting situation with my fiance who was very mad at me. He pulled though like a champion with complete professionalism and etiquette considering the circumstance. She called me right after he left and was very pleased with the presentation, but her concern was that she would get in trouble at work for having a serenade performed during business hours, so asked Tom to cut the song short, which is understandable. Tom is a good guy with a lot of talent and I would recommend him to anyone. He is very attentive and returns all calls and responds to all emails. Alan White, Houston Texas

Tom arrived early and asked questions, making sure that he understood the type of audience and performance that would be appropriate. He was very accommodating and even offered to help with our final set up arrangements. We had compliments from our guests and feel Tom helped make our event successful. We would hire Tom again.

Graduation PartyReviewed on May 29, 2012From Katy, TX

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on March 1, 2011From Missouri City, TX

I hired Tom for my wife's surprise 40th Bday party. Tom paid very close attention to the setting, and music I wanted. He showed up well ahead of schedule to set up. Once he started playing, he never took a break. I've never seen any performer put as much effort into meeting the client's needs as much as Tom did. He was incredibly polite to my children, our guests, and my family. At the end of the night, when he was done, he was invisible and quiet with respect to clearing out his equipment. I don't think that there was any way we could have done any better and would not hesitate to hire Tom again. The attendees loved him and I suspect will hire him as well.
