Graduation Party•Reviewed on May 31, 2016•From Amityville, NY

The 5 star scale isn't enough. He was early and setup without me having to worry about/direct him other than pointing to a spot on the patio and saying "there would be perfect". He was fully self-contained, ready to play before the first guest arrived. He even waited to start his set until the party got to the backyard so that he wasn't playing to an empty yard (which caused him to play later but he had zero complaints and seemed to genuinely care that the party went well). His music was superb, flowed perfectly with the party all night, and was so good, that I ended up having him stay TWICE as long as he was booked for. Absolutely made the party! Book him!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on December 13, 2015•From Oradell, NJ

Best Party Ever! I was initially skeptical about booking talent through this site, but Lou put all my concerns at ease, through his responsiveness, open line of communication and professionalism. As far as the night of the event was concerned, Lou arrived promptly, performed an amazing setlist which included a Stone Temple Pilot tribute to Scott Weiland, our wedding song by Ray LoMatagne (which he learned before the party), an Oasis sing-along, a Nirvana sing-along, a Pearl Jam sing-alongs and all of my guests' requests which kept the party rocking all night. It was definitely a birthday party my wife will never forget. BOOK HIM. You won't regret it!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on April 25, 2017•From Weehawken, NJ

If I was able to give 10 stars out of 5 I would give them to Lou. He's very talented and very professional. Lou did play guitar for my cocktail hour and my first dance. His playing guitar and his voice were beyond amazing!!! He makes sure to keep the customer satisfied and he is very details and good at follow up. I wish he was my wedding planner too!! lol!! Since he is great at communication and he is the only one that did not stress me out throughout my wedding planning. I wish him nothing but the best of the best. Hope we'll see you soon in a different event. Thank you so much for making our day special. Nour O

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 28, 2016•From Atlantic Beach, NY

Lou was extremely professional and accommodating. It was a pleasure to have him play at my wedding, as he is an extremely talented musician! He played classic as well as modern songs during the cocktail hour, and multiple guests commented on how great he was. He was also very helpful in coordinating the acoustics for what turned out to be a very windy beach ceremony. Would definitely recommend!!!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 17, 2016•From Sayville, NY

Working with Lou could not have been easier or more pleasant. We hired him and his colleague for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. From the instant I reached out to him, he was extremely communicative and responsive - he immediately took the time to learn about what we were looking for, our venue, etc. He played a great mix of songs and even learned a few special requests - he sounded great the entire time and was super flexible, given that we had some crazy wind and rain potential throughout the evening. Thank you, Lou, for everything!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on December 13, 2015•From Brooklyn, NY

Lou was lovely to work with from the beginning. He answered some questions for me promptly before we booked. We booked, and up until the event, Lou always kept in contact and confirmed details. He learned some Pearl Jam songs for my new husband, arrived early to set up, stuck totally to my song list and waited to play my favorite songs until we arrived to the reception, and he looked very professional. Everyone could not stop talking about how nice and talented he was. WE LOVED LOU, and would definitely hire him again in the future. Lou: Thanks so much! You were great!!!!!! :)

Engagement Party•Reviewed on November 14, 2016•From Little Neck, NY

I had the pleasure of having Lou play my engagement party. From the booking process to the end of the party, he was nothing but professional! After I booked we did everything via e-mail which was perfect for my busy schedule. Every time I e-mailed him I got a response within minutes. As for the day of the event, I couldn't of as for anything better! He got there early, set up and did his thing. He even started 15 minutes early because a ton of my guest showed up early! Whenever I talk to someone about the party the first thing they mention is how awesome Lou was. 100000% recommended, I can't wait to have another party so I can hire Lou again!

Wedding•Reviewed on December 13, 2016•From New Rochelle, NY

Lou was so accommodating when we asked him to learn some new songs for my daughter's wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. All of our guests thoroughly enjoyed his performance. We will hire him again for future parties!

Engagement Party•Reviewed on February 13, 2017•From New York City, NY

Lou was very personable and even gave a little bit of his time to rehearse at his place. Mad props for him dealing with my lack of vocals then and during the evening of the event. Very professional and accommodating. We had to switch dates due to conflicting schedules with my peeps but it worked out in the end and Lou endured the cold and wind of NYC Time Square to set up a successful perfect marriage proposal. It was a wonderful evening and couldn't have done it without him. GET THIS GUY PEOPLES!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 24, 2017•From Staten Island, NY

I work for an entertainment company for over 15 years. When Lou arrived he was respectful, courteous, and accommodating. His music selection was spot on!! All of my guests were asking where I found him. If you're looking for live music and someone with a ton of talent, Lou is your guy!! Thanks again!! And I will definitely be using him in the near future!!

Wedding•Reviewed on May 10, 2016•From Stony Brook, NY

Lou was the consummate professional. He was on time and helpful in coordinating his participation for our wedding. He made sure to go through the song list with us beforehand so we had everything we wanted. Lou's attitude, dress and overall manner was perfect for a wedding event. He is a terrific talent and his music was the perfect back drop for the event. He takes direction easily and he is genuinely just a great guy. I can't tell you how many of our guests complimented us selection of Lou. You can hire him with confidence and I promise you won't be disappointed. Thanks, Lou! You helped make our wedding even more memorable!

Engagement Party•Reviewed on December 4, 2016•From Mount Sinai, NY

Lou did an amazing job at our engagement party! He was always available to answer any of our questions via texting, and responded within minutes. He was very prompt and beat us to our own party. He played a variety of music and really got our crowd up and dancing. We had such a fun time and everyone is still talking about the music! We would recommend him to anybody. We will definitely be booking Lou again for future parties!

Event•Reviewed on November 26, 2016•From Whitestone, NY

Lou played at our backyard day after Thanksgiving party in a tent. He was extremely responsive in coordinating with us before the event, responding to all of my emails immediately. He arrived an hour early to set up and get acclimated. And he played very well for nearly four hours. Couldn't have asked for more.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 13, 2016•From Warren, NJ

Lou was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. He was always quick to respond to any emails and kept in touch with me throughout the process. After looking at his song list I suggested a few songs I thought he'd be great at doing for the party. He learned all of them and now when of them is his favorite song now! He was fantastic! Everyone loved him. Can't wait to have another party to listen to him again! Highly recommend Lou for your next event!

Private Party•Reviewed on September 29, 2016•From New York City, NY

Lou was such a great performer! He came early to set up and was very accommodating with our event and needs. Lou played straight through the whole event and was so professional. Would highly recommend him for anyone looking for an acoustic artist!

Christening•Reviewed on September 26, 2016•From Massapequa, NY

Lou was awesome! We had him perform at our house for our daughter's christening party. He had a great set list; he's very talented and also very accommodating. We got so many compliments for him from our guests. If you're looking for some good, enjoyable music for your party, Lou's your guy. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to my friends and family.

Wedding•Reviewed on October 5, 2016•From Long Island City, NY

Lou was fantastic to work with! He was prompt in replying to our e-mails and questions, and provided the perfect music for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He listened to what we wanted, and even went the extra mile to learn new songs that we requested for our ceremony. Lou was very professional and arrived at the venue early to set-up and coordinate with our officiant. We heard from our guests how much they enjoyed the music, and we would definitely reach out to Lou again for our future events.

Engagement Party•Reviewed on August 31, 2016•From Ringwood, NJ

Lou was amazing! He played for our surprise engagement party/wedding and was very accommodating and professional. He called me before the event and went over everything in detail. He has a wonderful voice and everyone at the party kept saying how great he was. He even played for an extra hour when we asked him to stay with no problems. Definitely recommend.
