Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 30, 2008•From Schaumburg, IL

If I could give Victor 10 stars I would. I can't say enough nice things about him. I can say, if you hire him to play your event, you and your guests will be treated to a very professional, talented and kind hearted soul who obviously loves what he does. His voice and ear are exceptional, his demeanor is unobtrusive and kind and overall very professional. He played my mother's 65 birthday party and everyone (I mean everyone) came up to me (and Victor) and said how impressed they were with his performance. He made the event that much more special. It made me happy to see everyone enjoying the music so much and singing along. Beautiful voice and a beuatiful person.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on May 25, 2009•From Morgantown, IN

Our family is so pleased with how our parent's 50th wedding anniversary party went and Victor's performance played an enormouse role in it's success. He arrived over 2 hours earlier than our event and played for nearly 3 hours although we had only paid to have him play for 2. To the guests delight, he performed every request. The overwhelming concensus was that Victor's voice sounded just like the artist's he covered. When the party moved outdoors, so did he. He is a consumate gentleman, performer, & accomodated us in every way possible. We would recomend him highly to anyone interested in having a live performer play their event. Sincerely, Brad from Indiana

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 10, 2008•From Grayslake, IL

We couldn't have been more pleased with selecting Victor to play at Brad's 50th celebration. I found this site the day before (yes, 1 day before) the event. Victor contacted me and let us know of his availability. Seeing his high marks on the Gigmaster site, I felt pretty confident. He made the afternoon celebration an event to remember and considering the crowd loves 70s music, Victor played our requested songs to remind us of those wonderful times in our life. I had so many inquiries from friends and guests that I feel I could be his agent. Thanks again for connecting us with a great musician and kind soul. Sincerely, Karen R

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on November 10, 2007•From Milwaukee, WI

Me and my siblings hired Victor Fox for our parents anniversary party held at a members only upscale club in Milwaukee. He arrived well ahead of the scheduled start time, dressed for the occassion, to test all his equipment and to discuss the play list. We had never hired a performer before and bringing someone to something so special without really knowing much about them was scary; lets just say we were more than pleasantly surprised. Victor's guitar skills and his voice are amazing and he played to the crowd. I had several guests, and the general manager of the club, inquire about his business card. He made the night that much more special and great. Thanks!

Victor Fox:

Thanks again Jill for booking me. I am very glad that I was able to ease your worries. It was a pleasure meeting you and your family. Glad you all had fun.

Retirement Party•Reviewed on October 3, 2011•From Tinley Park, IL

I asked Victor if he could perform two gigs on the same day because he had an afternoon and he said he could and not only could he but he knocked it out of the park! Many guests asked me "Where did you find this guy? He's great!" And this was after he performed the wedding and drove 60 miles to my party. I would highly recommend Victor to anyone considering entertainment for their party and I cannot stress this enough! Thanks again, Victor, it was great!

Private Party•Reviewed on August 23, 2008•From Westfield, WI

Victor was there early and offered to play on the pontoon boat as we drove around the lake. After dinner he played for several hours on the deck and he was GREAT. His preformance was outside and several neighbors stopped by and they all loved his playing and singing. He has a wide variety of artists he plays and does them all very well. Best way to describe Victor: HE'S GOOD !!!!!

Wine Tasting Party•Reviewed on September 17, 2011•From Hinsdale, IL

Victor is a great musician and a really nice guy as well. His music was the hit of our garden party. If you like 60's and 70's classic rock, he has around 200 of the best hits from that era to choose from. He knows how to pace a party well with soft hits mixed with hard rocking. He also bring extra mics for sing-along's, which were very fun. After the police arrived to quiet down our late party (we ran almost two hours long and Victor said he would stay as late as we wanted!), he put away the amps and strummed softly for another half hour. People were raving about him that night and the day after. I would definitely have Victor back again and highly recommend him.

Picnic•Reviewed on August 22, 2010•From Ingleside, IL

Our outdoor venue, a community picnic, was a wonderful setting for the mellow sound of Victor Fox. He is an amazingly talented, and thoroughly professional performer. He came early to set up his sound system, and to do a sound check, and once he started singing, our friends and neighbors were nearly gushing with compliments. Everyone loved him and his selection of music for our event. One couple told me it was like going to Ravinia - sitting in a grove of trees and listening to fantastic music. I would definitely recommend Victor Fox for anyone's special event.

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on September 15, 2010•From Long Grove, IL

Victor was absolutely fantastic; from initial contact, to song selection, to playing our post-wedding ceremony event which was held in a small, private room at a local restaurant. The space was intimate and romantic, and Victor pitched his voice perfectly for the venue! The songs were those that everyone knew and loved (some guests even sang along!), and Victor even played a special request for my parents which added a special touch to our event! But if all of Victor's special attention wasn't enough, he allowed my father-in-law to borrow his guitar to play a song he'd written for us! WOW! A big THANK YOU to Victor for making our evening so special.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on April 19, 2010•From Milwaukee, WI

Victor was perfect for our event. He was plenty early and ready to go about 45 minutes before the party started. He was polite and friendly. He adapted perfectly to our event. I didn't hear one complaint - quite the contrary, I had many people asking "How did you find this guy?" Comments about him where 100% positive from everybody. He went way beyond my expectations in the music he played and in his focus while he was there. He jumped from one song to another without skipping a beat all through the night. I would highly recommend him and we are definately going to keep him in mind for future events of our own. Thanks Victor!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 9, 2010•From Lake Geneva, WI

Victor was perfect from the beginning. When you are going to engage someone to perform for a special occasion, you never know what is going to happen. Victor is responsive. He responded to my request quickly, he was easy to get ahold of by phone. He was willing to change start times, play longer if needed. Another great thing, he has all his own equipment and the sound was great. He was very easy to work with. Then the day came, he was on time, looked terrific, and has THE BEST voice. He played many songs by request and we sang along. He is a five star guy!! I would recommend him to everyone. Thanks Victor for making our event an evening to remember!

Victor Fox:

Thank you Linda very much for the wonderful words. It was a pleasure to have met you and your family. Thanks again for booking me for your event. :>

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 6, 2009•From Algonquin, IL

Victor was FANTASTIC!! He is an amazing performer and all our guests commented on how talented he is! The music selections were great and he really knew how to adjust to the mood of the party. At one point in the evening people were circled around him singing their hearts out! He was great, we are definitely going to request him for our future events. Thanks Victor!!

Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 23, 2009•From Forest Park, IL

Victor performed for our daughter's high school graduation party at a restaurant. He did an excellent job and was very professional. He came early to set up and began playing earlier than asked. He played a variety of music and met the requests of all the guests. We received lots of compliments from our guests who thoroughly enjoyed his music. He rarely took a break and at the end of the night played an extra 1/2 hour as he saw the kids were all dancing and singing along. He played at a volume that was perfect for us to talk yet enjoy his sound. I would highly recommend Victor.

New Year's Eve Party•Reviewed on January 2, 2012•From Warsaw, IN

WOW, what a GREAT TIME!!! Victor made my New Year’s Eve party a Fantastic event for my family and friends! Right from the start Victor communicated with me about the party, any questions or special requests that I may have had and that was greatly appreciated. We had a small group of 25 or so (ages 25 to 60) and he mingled with everyone, getting to know us and quickly recognizing the music we enjoyed the most. We all danced and sang along with the extra microphone that he provided (nice treat). His play list is amazing! So many songs and he does them all so well!!!! My friends and family are still talking about Victor and how well he performed!! Thanks Victor!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 12, 2009•From Chicago, IL

Absolutely Fabulous! Victor exceeded every expectation I could have possibly imagined. He even took the time to learn a new song for my husbands birthday party. His rendition of James Taylor's "How Sweet It Is To Be Loved By You" was simply wonderful. Victor arrived early which was a godsend. My decorator didn't show up. While I was mid-meltdown he kept his cool and pitched in to help me decorate. One of my guests is an event planner who was so impressed he plans to use Victor at upcoming events. I couldn't have asked for more in his performance or professionalism. I can't wait to have another party and enjoy his music once again.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on February 24, 2013•From Joliet, IL

Victor was beyond amazing. He has great musical talent, and guests at the party just raved about him. He took many requests, and brought an extra microphone for any brave guests to sing along if they'd like. Victor was the perfect choice for my mother's 60th birthday party. Victor arrived very early to ensure he'd be there in time to set up properly & check volume, played for an extra 1/2 hour (above and beyond the three contracted hours), and even played for two hours straight! It's obvious that he loves to entertain, and does an excellent job doing so. I'd wouldn't hesitate to hire him again for future parties, and most definitely recommend him for yours!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 15, 2010•From Dearborn Heights, MI

I first heard Victor sing at a pub several months ago and decided I had to create a 70's party around his talents (husband's 40th birthday). He was very courteous, timely and professional throughout the entire process and made my party a success. I would HIGHLY recommend him for any occasion for people of all ages. I received alot of great comments from my guests as well. I truly appreciated having the opportunity for Victor to jam at my party! Thank you!!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 24, 2011•From Long Grove, IL

I booked Victor to perform at my husband's 50th birthday party. Victor exceeded our expectations. He did an incredible job. He arrived early to setup and do a sound check. Victor was very accommodating to our guest's requests and even had an additional microphone setup, so people could sing with him. I had several guests ask me "how did you find the singer, he's great". Victor's soulful voice and guitar playing is amazing. BIG thank you to Victor!! You made our party even more memorable.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 29, 2012•From Highland Park, IL

This was my first time using GigMasters to find a guitarist for my mother's birthday party! I was a little bit nervous at first but those fears were put to rest in my first experience with Victor. Victor was very thorough and responsive from the initial email. He was very professional and thorough in prep for the party. On the big day, he came early to setup and was very patient with me and the craziness of the setup activities prior to the party. Most importantly, he is an AMAZING performer. I received so many compliments regarding Victor from guests at the party and my mom was thrilled with his song selections and talent. He made the party a huge success!

Cocktail Party•Reviewed on February 15, 2010•From Chicago, IL

Victor was a pleasure to work with. His music made our daughter's engagement party even more special. He arrived early, he stayed late, and was a professional from start to finish. His musical ability is a true gift! Even the "20 somethings" sat close by to listen to him play. I look forward to hosting another event. I know who will be playing the music!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on August 20, 2011•From Kalamazoo, MI

Vic was extremely professional, easy to work with and talented. We loved him, our family and friends loved him, and our wedding guests raved about the music. Not only was he very nice and easygoing to work with, but his music was beautifully done. When we heard his samples on the internet, we feel in love with his style and his voice. And when he started playing at our wedding he sounded even better. Vic also went above and beyond- learning a new song that we requested, driving six hours to get to us, dedicating a song to us as a couple, and accommodating our family when they wanted to make toasts and announcements. We are so happy that we chose Vic for our wedding!

Wedding•Reviewed on July 14, 2007•From Racine, WI

I found Victor Fox for our wedding reception on Gigmasters with no prior knowledge of his abilities. He was fantastic! We had a lot of unusual requests including having our nieces sing a song that he would play. He agreed to meet early and rehearsed and even learned some new songs for us that we requested. Victor Fox recieved many compliments from our guests. He was a great performer and very accompdating. He was perfect and I recommend him for any event. John Matheson

Victor Fox:

Thanks John for your feedback. I will add those two songs in my shows.

Private Party•Reviewed on July 13, 2010•From Augusta, MO

Victor was perfect for our party. We did not want a big, loud band that would interfere with our guests being social. We wanted pleasant music that our guests of all ages could enjoy without being overwhelming. He was just that. He came totally prepared with our requests. He was early, friendly with all, and very polite. I was asked a gazillion times where I found him. We would definitely hire him again.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 2, 2012•From La Porte, IN

Victor did a great job! Everyone at the party wanted to know where I found him! He was able to adjust the volume so that we had his music as background, and it added so much to the atmosphere of the party. The best part was when he sang "Sweet Caroline" to my mom, and the crowd joined in. My mom turned 90, and she's a bit hard to please, but I think she really enjoyed Victor. I don't live in that area, but I hope others who live there will think of him for upcoming events. Glad I found him!
