Ryan and Donny were the most talked about part of our wedding day! They really came through with not only providing the dueling pianos portion of the evening, but also audio equipment for our ceremony and DJ services throughout cocktail hour, dinner, and end of the night. Ryan and Donny are fantastic performers!!!! They pulled out all the stops with a trumpet, guitar solos, and tambourines for the crowd! We LOVE them so much and couldn't have imagined our wedding without them! You NEED these guys at whatever event you're planning!!!!!

Brian's live music created such a beautiful, meaningful atmosphere for our ceremony and set the perfect relaxed, elegant tone for cocktail hour. The cadence of the music, the song order, and the timing of the MC'ing were all flawless. Every transition felt seamless, and they knew exactly how to keep the party going without ever making the night feel rushed or overproduced. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the music was. It truly made such a difference in the overall feeling of our wedding day. Brian and Mike were professional, talented, intuitive, and such a joy to work with. We would recommend them wholeheartedly to any couple looking for musicians who can bring both beauty and energy to a wedding celebration!!

We hired Brian for a private party and I honestly cannot say enough good things. He played keyboard and acoustic guitar, sometimes switching between the two like it was nothing, and his voice was stunning. Like, stop-your-conversation-mid-sentence stunning. I had written him about my husband's favorite group, Dawes, and he surprised us by singing, and playing one of our absolute favorites from them. It was so incredibly special! If you're on the fence about hiring live music for your next event, this is your sign. Book him. You will not regret it. 10/10, would absolutely have him back and we will!!!

Versatility and talent beyond compare…read more After reading all the glowing reviews of Michael Tiernan's musicianship my wife and I felt honored to be able to make a date with him to provide the music for a party at The Thursday Club in Point Loma. The party was partially a 50th anniversary but mostly a celebration of great friendships of many years. He did an incredible job of playing songs that were the perfect complement to the changing dynamics of the entire evening. Michael is a charming individual and when the mood was right he played songs that engaged the crowd, captured their attention and drew applause. He's a master at reading the room. Toward the end of the evening a contingent got up and started dancing between the tables. Michael was totally in his element. He can create all the high energy party vibe you could want. He has spontaneous looping techniques that make his renditions of songs as full bodied as a band. As part of the planning process we received a list of songs that are in his repertoire. You would not believe the length of the list and the variety of situations and moods he can bring to life. This next part is slightly humorous, but testifies to what a great guy Michael is. Since the majority of the crowd was going to be septuagenarians like ourselves, we were concerned that if the music was too "prominent" the guests might have difficulty hearing each other and conversing. It was with a little trepidation that we brought up this concern with Michael. You don't sign up an artist with all his gifts and then ask him to play quietly. His response was immediate and completely understanding. He totally got it. He assured us he could keep it as mellow as we wanted. And he did it perfectly with no cues from us, especially during the crucial cocktail-hour part of the event which was an important time for people to mingle and visit. He reads the room. If you are planning a special event you hope to bring all the elements together to make it a great experience for all the guests. It's like an art project. Music is an essential part of the experience. Look no further for an amazingly gifted musician who can work with you to craft the occasion to your desires to make it a meaningful and joyful celebration.

After the event, we made sure to grab her business card because we knew we wanted her talent for our special day. For our wedding at the beautiful Mission Inn, Hotel and Spa, we were keen on avoiding a DJ; instead, we longed for a romantic ambiance created by a live musician, and Krissy was the perfect choice. Her professionalism and organization stood out immediately. She provided us with an array of music selections and was open to incorporating our personal preferences. We shared our list of favorite songs with her, and she seamlessly wove them into her repertoire, creating a list that felt uniquely ours. throughout the evening, her punctuality and dedication where evident as she gracefully played at our reception. It was heartwarming to see how approachable she was; several of our guests requested specific songs, and without hesitation, she accommodated them, fostering a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Krissy played her violin continuously throughout the night, filling the air with beautiful melodies that enhanced the romantic setting. As a bride, I felt like I was in a dream, enveloped in the magical experience she created for us. Every note she played made us feel cherished, making our wedding unforgettable for both our guests and us. Thank you, Krissy, for your love of music.

I definitely recommend his services to anyone looking to add that magical feeling and touch of whimsy to their event. And one final reason why Vaughn is the type of professional that you want on your side during event planning, I had been scammed by a catering company who took our deposit and then went completely unreachable despite still being active on social media, and Vaughn was able to put me in contact with a trusted vendor he'd previously worked with and truly saved the day!

Celeste was exceptional as celebrant, serving as both officiant and soloist for the event. She guided us through the planning process with compassion and took great care to understand who our daughter was through conversations with and written comments of family members. Together we chose several songs for Celeste to sing as guests arrived and others she would sing during the celebration of life. An ordained minister, she facilitated the service with thoughtful and consoling words and spiritual reflections appropriate to our situation. Our choice was to have several family members speak, with three songs interspersed through the program. Celeste eased these transitions seamlessly and her singing is simply luminous. My husband and I are grateful for the extraordinary care, sympathy, and peace that Celese provided to honor our daughter's life in such a beautiful way.

It was so great to have MULTIPLE people come up to us and compliment how good he was and the playlist. The dance floor was full the whole night! He was so kind and very detailed asking how long we wanted certain songs and hyped the crowd up perfectly for grand entrances. There was a particular moment my (now) husband and I remember where he played a classic throwback from the early 2000s and all of our guest including us went wild because we're millennials and we grew up on that music. He read the crowds energy and mashed up 3 songs to keep it going, playing the most memorable parts to sing along to instead of having the whole 3 songs where the energy might die. It was AMAZING! Going into wedding planning I had a fear of DJs because I have been to many weddings where the dance floor was empty because of poor song choices, microphone feedback during speeches, etc but he smashed it out of the park. Everything went so smoothly and couldn't have been better! I even forgot my bouquet as I was about to go down the aisle and he was on top of it immediately and seamlessly looped the processional song without anyone noticing a thing. Absolutely made our wedding everything we hoped it would be. We couldn't recommend someone more.
