Jeremy Milligan Classical Guitarist from South Hadley, MA

The sound of the acoustic guitar is perfect for so many occasions. It can provide a sense of class and elegance when performing a classic melody like Pachelbel's "Canon", or bring a sense of joy and comfort with a great song like "Here Comes the Sun". It's the sound of new classics like Train's "Marry Me" and Christina Perri's "A Thousand Years". It's hard to imagine a kind of music where the guitar doesn't provide that familiar sound, and you can have that beautiful sound of your favorite music at your event! Jeremy Milligan has been performing for weddings and events throughout the Pioneer Valley and beyond since 2002. With a Master's Degree from the prestigious HARTT School of Music, Jeremy is one of the finest guitarists in the area. Not only does he perform all the tried-and-true classical repertoire that we all know so well, he also performs modern favorites by the Beatles, Stevie Wonder, Eric Clapton, Bob Marley, Bruno Mars and many others, as well as standards of the Jazz era. Maybe you and your fiancée have a favorite song. Something a little off the beaten path that isn't on the "top wedding song" lists. Jeremy will create a custom arrangement just for you and your special event! Give your guests that unique experience of listening to the music that you love! Once the ceremony is over, now it's on the the reception. Jeremy is able to provide music for cocktail hour and dinner if needed as well.

His amazing guitar playing added a touch of elegance and class to the proceedings. I was unsure about having live music for the ceremony, but now I am 100% happy that we went with Jeremy! I loved the option of being able to listen to audio clips on his website to choose the music that we wanted. His guitar playing was flawless and beautiful. I highly recommend him!" -Elizabeth 5/13/2017 Jeremy did a fantastic job providing both ceremony & cocktail hour music for our wedding. He was very flexible and worked with us to find the right mix of music that fit our requests. Plus, we asked him last minute to play outside and he was able to get the right battery powered equipment so our music wouldn't suffer from lack of a plug! We had many compliments from our guests on his music and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for soft, beautiful guitar music!" -A. Birsic 10/15/2011 "Jeremy did the ceremony music for my wedding and it was awesome! He learned a song for my processional, and played my entrance, and recessional music flawlessly.

The music was beautiful and I am so happy we booked him." -Haley 8/30/2014 "Jeremy's music was perfect for our ceremony. Every song he played was absolutely beautiful.

Thank you Jeremy!" -Josh 8/16/2008
