Review by Roger M.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 26, 2026•From Wall, NJ

Scott is a very talented performer.The length and breadth of his repertoire is truly impressive. He is very personable and encourages requests and participation from the audience. Our guests were very impressed and had a great time. Scott was very professional and easy to deal with throughout. He arrived early to the party to set up; stayed later than planned to accommodate our singing family and friends and played for 4 1/2 hours with only a short break. I would hire Scott again without hesitation.

Scott was awesome! We hired him to play at our dad’s memorial service. He was kind, thoughtful, extremely professional and talented. His performance and song selections were perfect. Everyone loved it and I received so many compliments. Thank you so much Scott for helping make an already sad day a happy one and one that will definitely be remembered. My dad would have loved it! Thanks!

Scott came as a last minute booking for our home celebration and saved the day! His guitar skills and sound were amazing. He has a very wide repertoir and fit perfectly into the vibe we were going for. He was super friendly, respectful and with great communication. We would recommend Scott to anyone. Thank you Scott!

Memorial Service•Reviewed on August 4, 2024•From West Orange, NJ

Scott was fantastic & exactly what we needed in more ways than one. We hired Scott for a Celebration of Life. Scott’s extensive repertoire of 100s of songs was a perfect fit for us and in addition to the incredible song list, Scott knows massive amounts of music by heart which is extremely impressive! He was kind and thoughtful about our wishes for the event and self-sufficient as well. We emailed and chatted briefly and he immediately understood the assignment and what we needed. At the event I received so many compliments about the music and “where did you find him? He’s a perfect fit”. Thank you Scott for providing healing music during a difficult time.

We had Scott play at an outdoor engagement party for my son. His guitar playing and singing were great and lifted the event to the next level. The thank yous we got the next day all included comments about how great Scott’s performance was and how it made the event even more special. Thank you Scott!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 10, 2021•From Lansdale, PA

Scott was really easy to work with leading up to the party and in person the day of the event. His communication and responsiveness was awesome. He was perfect for our outdoor cocktail hour and then he showed off his guitar skills with a range of artists songs everyone enjoyed. True professional. Will definitely use Scott again.

Celebration•Reviewed on May 10, 2021•From Rumson, NJ

From my initial request for more information to Scott's last song at our event...complete professionalism and talent. Scott was very active leading up to our event to confirm details, help with song selection, and ensure we were comfortable with every step of the process. Once he got going with the guitar and microphone, it was smooth sailing the entire 3 hours. All of our guests were impressed with his skill and music library. Highly HIGHLY recommended. Best bang for your buck on the Bash.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 7, 2020•From Port Washington, NY

We had Scott over for an outdoor birthday party and he was amazing! We had a great time with him and he was so accommodating, played all of our requests and made it a really special night. He has a great repertoire of music. Scott was very nice and professional, we chatted a few times before the event and he was very prepared. We would all love to have him back in the future!

Private Party•Reviewed on October 10, 2019•From New York City, NY

Don't hesitate. I had the pleasure of hiring Scott for a small even in my NYC apartment last night. Scott came on time and very well prepared. He was able to adjust his playing to read the crowd, and take requests from his supplied repertoire sheets with many people commented on how voluminous it was! Everyone had a blast and Scott's playing made the event very special. I will keep Scott in mind for my future events.

Cocktail Party•Reviewed on August 26, 2019•From Allenhurst, NJ

Scott was amazing! I hired him for a dinner party on my porch with about only ten guests. His guitar skills are superior, and his easygoing manner matched it. His song list was right up my alley. He had classic rock to pop to oldies-but-goodies. Scott was so kind about us singing and stealing his mike (after we had many drinks)! I recommend Scott. He's a great guy and a great musician.
