Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on May 17, 2018From Waxhaw, NC

Judson arrived early, and had everything set up on time. Very punctual and responsive on gig masters and through text message. He was very cordial, helpful and had a great attitude, but most importantly he played beautiful music.

Judson Hurd was very professional and easy to work with. His piano music for the wedding ceremony was absolutely beautiful! I would highly recommend Judson to anyone.

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on August 24, 2017From Chapel Hill, NC

Judson was a wonderful pianist for our wedding reception. He is both a talented musician on the keys... and he sings! He was incredibly flexible for us -- (1) We had him playing for over three hours and he didn't miss a beat (2) We needed him to make all our announcements and stepped in as our emcee for the night (3) Also he took all our requests for songs. It was a great experience working with him! Highly recommend

Fraternity FunctionReviewed on October 24, 2016From Wilmington, NC

I requested Mr. Hurd's tallents for an evening event of cocktails, dinner, and awards. He arrived on time, prepared, and ready to tickle the ivory! I would recommend Judson to any who ask truly appreciated his talent while not adding more stress on the event planner (key).

Rehearsal DinnerReviewed on May 11, 2016From Myrtle Beach, SC

From my first contact with Judson to explore whether he was a good fit for our event to my last contact with him at the conclusion of the event, Judson was courteous, professional, and accommodating. During the event he adjusted the volume and tempo of his selections as the atmosphere in the venue changed. He has a very nice personality and it was a pleasure working with him.

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 22, 2015From Sunset Beach, NC

Judson did a great job for our family Christmas party. He played great background music during drinks and dinner, and played sing-along requests for an hour or more for a bunch of bad, but enthusiastic, singers. Nice personality, pleasant and engaging, but not needing to be the center of attention. I would use him again in a heartbeat, and recommend him highly.

Judson played our wedding ceremony in April 2015 and was amazing! He was extremely responsive to emails and was very flexible with our requests ... even the ones I sent him the day before the ceremony. All of our guests loved the music throughout the ceremony. I would absolutely recommend Judson for your event!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on June 3, 2015From Southport, NC

Judson was wonderful and easy to work with. Sadly, as the bride, I didn't get to meet him but the music was beautiful and he was very accommodating to our requests. Thank you for making our day so special!

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 11, 2014From Raleigh, NC

Judson provided background music for our church Christmas dinner. He provided just the right setting for our event, and also collaborated at the last minute with one of the other musicians performing that night, accompanying her on the piano. He was accomodating with our schedule and a pleasure to have as our guest at the dinner. We will be glad to have him back again sometime.

Judson did a wonderful job. Nothing but great comments from our participants. He played great pieces at the perfect volume. When the opportunity arises, we will book him again. Thanks Judson!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on May 30, 2014From Southport, NC

Judson was top notch! Kindly kept in touch through emails leading up to the wedding, and was always prompt to respond and answer any questions I had. Had no limit on song selections and choices. I picked both traditional and non-traditional music that he played beautifully. Set the perfect tone for the chapel ceremony. He filled the air with happiness in your ears! Amazing piano player. Wish I could listen again and again. Thank you Judson!

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on November 23, 2013From Durham, NC

Judson was a great addition to our wedding reception experience! We had to move some of our reception events/timing to accommodate a sick family member and Judson took it all in stride! The piano background was the perfect complement to our afternoon event. One comment- We requested Judson learn a specific song for our first dance. He did great, but it could have been a bit better (i.e. closer to the original). Overall we loved having Judson! He is a fast communicator, excellent piano player, and great guy to have around :) I would recommend him.

Hiring a pianist for a wedding sight unseen can be scary... Judson was perfect! He was very professional, accommodating and excellent musician. Would recommend and hire again!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on April 14, 2013From Sumter, SC

Excuse me if I mispell a few words; I am currently using my cell. We are very satisfied with Mr. Hurd's performance as our wedding pianist. He is a very perfessional pianist. Everything requested of him he did with no problems and never complained about last minute changes. I would reccomend his services to anyone. The wedding guests were very pleased and we got excellent reviews on his song selections and how well he played them. Thank You Mari & Walter Blanding

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on October 15, 2012From Greensboro, NC

Judson was very accomodating. We had a friend who was going to play the piano and sing a song for our "First Dance" and Judson was more than happy to let his piano be used by our friend. Our wedding had to be postponed and Judson worked with us in the rescheduling of the special event. Judson even played particular songs when requested. He was wonderful and I would reccomend him for other events!

Rehearsal DinnerReviewed on May 23, 2012From Charleston, SC

Judson Hurd played the key board at my son's Rehearsal Dinner and his music was enjoyed by all ages attending. He played lovely background music for the occasion and I could not be more please with his choice of musical pieces. I would definately use him again for a party and recommend him to my friends. He was wonderful! Sara Murphy

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on March 13, 2012From Greensboro, NC

Juson was so great to work with. He responded to all my concerns. He had absolutely no problem with special music we requested. He is very personable and easy to talk to. His performance was flawless. He arrived early and we spoke before the ceremony and he also waited afterwards and we spoke again. I would recommend Judson for any occasion you are planning. All of our guests commented on his music and how much they enjoyed his artistry. Wonderful, he added to our memories for our daughter's special day.

Justin was outstanding and provided JUST what we needed for a very emotionally charged eveing. He was a true professional and was adaptable to all of our adjustments while playing a vast and appropriate playlist! Thank you so much, Justin. I will be calling you again! Merry Christmas - Victoria Wheeler, Director of Meetings.

Anniversary PartyReviewed on November 21, 2011From Cary, NC

Judson is a very nice young man who arrived on time and fit in very well for our 25th Anniversary Party. We had the windows open and as people parked their car and walked up to the house it was terrific for them to hear his beautiful piano playing coming through the windows. At least one guest got his business card and hopefully will be contacting him for a party they may be having.
