Review by Joseph T.

Private PartyReviewed on August 20, 2022From Lewis Center, OH

Paul is a very talented guitarist and plays a wide variety of songs to keep things interesting. He was very cognizant of his volume across my three tiered patio such that he blended very nicely into the background of your conversations with guests and yet he was loud enough to be heard by everyone. Paul played tirelessly for three straight hours and after that was generous enough to provide guitar backing for some vocals the guests tried to provide at the end of a good party. He clearly loves his music and shares that with his audience. He also answered many questions from would be guitarists through the evening.
