Review by Natalie C.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 28, 2010•From Mill Valley, CA

Les performed during the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner portions of my wedding, and did a fantastic job! He performed our first dance beautifully. Leading up to the event, Les was in regular touch to follow up with special requests and ensure that we shared the same vision for how the significant songs should be played. We were really pleased with how detail-oriented and professional Les was, how he transitioned seamlessly with our DJ, and how he was able to remain flexible when our ceremony was unexpectedly delayed. We would recommend him without reservation!

Les was great to work with. He was extremely accomodating with my music requests, and he was very easy going. He did an excellent job helping me determine the best music choices for my wedding style. I have also heard so many great comments from wedding guests that praise the music and musician. After the wedding, I found a wedding card from him that he had slipped in to my card box. So thoughtful! Thanks Les!

We had Les perform at our wedding ceremony last week, and he was absolutely WONDERFUL to work with. He responded to my emails in a very timely manner ... and he patiently answered all of my questions and special requests. I really appreciate that he sent over an extensive list of songs he could play for our ceremony. His music was just beautiful and when I entered the church and heard "Here Comes The Sun" my eyes welled with tears. I would HIGHLY recommend working with Les on your future events and I look forward to working with him again in the future.

Excellent musician. Not only very professional in the first initial contact but the follow up as well. Will definitely hire again and will look forward to having him on property again. Thank you very much for a job well done - our clients and owner of the hotel were very pleased. Sincerely, Melissa Caraway Director of Catering The Meritage Resort & Spa

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 13, 2011•From Modesto, CA

Les was great--he is very talented and interacts well with his audience---drew them right in. He helped make my husband's surprise birthday party extra special. The song Les wrote to commemorate my husband's 60th fit him to a "T" and brought laughter to all there. Thanks Les! Next time we have an event--you're the first person I'll be calling!

I was extremely pleased with my entire transaction with Les. From the very beginning, to the end, he and his wife were professional, kind, helpful and talented. I'm so glad I decided to contact him to perform at my husband's birthday party; he really helped make it an extra special event. If we were to ever have a similar event in the future, I would not hesitate to contact Les again.

Les was a wonderful addition to my wife's birthday party. Many people commented on how much they loved his music and vocals. I highly recommend him. And his "roadie" wife was super nice too!

Les did a great job for us. He was there early to set up his equipment and the songs he sang were beautiful.

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on October 24, 2010•From Walnut Creek, CA

Les performed during the cocktail hour, dinner and after dinner at our small wedding reception two weeks ago. His music was right on target with smooth sounds before dinner and then he sang and played after dinner including the music to our first dance, Here and Now. He was also very tolerant of two little children who were in attendance! He was very accommodating and I would highly recommend him.

Wedding•Reviewed on June 18, 2012•From San Francisco, CA

Les was fantastic! I booked him at the last minute, 2 weeks before my wedding due to some changed circumstances, and he was extremely helpful and accommodating for any of my requests. With just emails communication, he was able to play exactly the kind of songs and mood I was looking for. Would definitely recommend!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 20, 2011•From Danville, CA

Les was simply wonderful to work with, perforing for my wife's (Nalini) special birthday celebration. A true professional who made it all look easy, seamlessly fitting it with our group, a mix of family, old & new friends. I think his best moments were his 2 customized songs that he tailoreed for Nalini... very creative, touching and funny. Les' wife, Pat, was also a delight, as she helped with set-up, sound test, coordination with us, etc. I know we'll use Les for future events, already thinking ahead. Great job, Les & Pat ... thanks for making our celebration so meaningful & fun!

Les did an awesome job! He tailored the words, the music, and the timing to create a perfect evening. Professional, but without pretense, we felt like Les and his wife were old friends, they fit right in and everyone had a great time. Thank you Les!

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 31, 2012•From Danville, CA

Les was very professional, having come to our home earlier in the day to insure enough time to set up and test the equipment for the evening. He and his wife additionally kindly made 30 copies of selected Christmas carols for our sing-along.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on January 25, 2013•From Three Rivers, CA

I found Les not knowing anything about booking a musician. I knew the sound I wanted, and was very specific about what I wanted to have played because it was critical to my wedding. But, my uncertainty was quickly turned into confidence after my first few correspondences with Les. He is very professional, courteous, accommodating, and clearly is experienced as a performer and with events. He made sure the songs, his performance all matched what I was looking for, and went through details carefully. As crazy as I was trying to plan every detail,he had everything taken care of so I didn't have to worry. Talented artist, kind human being! He's wonderful!
