My family and I attended a show at our local library where Evan was performing. I was so impressed by his ability to connect with our children, and every child (and adult!) in the room. However, what really stood out was how he remembered my children's names! There must've been about twenty five kids and he made us feel like we were the only ones in the room and my daughter, who is usually so shy, was engaged with what was going on. She was raising her hand and answering questions, dancing and singing along with the group. It really meant so much to us... But I honestly think that Evan wasn't even trying! It's just second nature. Upon leaving, he gave us his cd - my husband and I were so excited to put it on for our kiddos. On a long ride to PA, it was as lifesaver! It was enjoyable music and something perfect for adults, too. I just wonder, how on earth he comes up with these lyrics! This is a gift and we are happy to be receivers of such melodies and now we can't take any trips without Evan's music in tow! read more

We had Evan play for my son's 2nd birthday party this past weekend! Evan was on time and had all the equipment needed for the event. His music was awesome and all the guest, kids and adult had fun dancing! The bubble machine was a perfect ending for the kids! Highly recommend Evan for children's party. He's also easy to communicate with. My son still say's Mr. Evan plays guitar at my house! We will defiantly use Evan again! read more

We had a backyard birthday party with about 50 kids ranging in age from 1 to 9 and Evan Gottfried (and Maggie) completely made the party! They were professional, flexible, did not take themselves seriously, and were completely engaged and seemed genuinely happy to be there. They had a professional sound system and even did a sound check which was impressive. It was a very energetic and happy performance. Once the music started, the kids were on their feet and moving around. They loved playing with the parachute and giant bouncy ball. But the hands down runaway favorite was the industrial strength bubble machine that cranked out a constant stream of thousands of bubbles for a good ten minutes. This was accompanied by a frenetic song that had all the kids dancing around like crazy in a giant bubble cloud. All the kids, and the adults, were captivated. Everyone told me how great the show was and how much fun their kids had. I am truly grateful because my kids enjoyed their birthday party SO much! read more
