Wedding•Reviewed on July 21, 2019•From Sea Cliff, NY

He was amazing, and so talented! All of our guests enjoyed listening to him during cocktail hour and made a point to tell us so throughout the night.

Not only was Kurt wonderfully easy to communicate with, his musical ability far exceeded my hopes for my event. I received countless rave reviews from my guests about how much they enjoyed the quality and variety of his music. Many want to hire him for their own parties! Simply can’t say enough good things about our experience with Kurt! Thank you for making our event a memorable one!!

Wedding•Reviewed on June 10, 2019•From West Coxsackie, NY

We hired Kurt to play our ceremony, cocktail hour and first dance for our barn wedding. He was one of the highlights of our event. Our guests commented how incredible he was and we can't agree more. Throughout the whole process from hiring to the event, he was professional and quick to respond. Our ceremony music was amazing, and the way he played and sang our first dance song was perfect. We are so happy Kurt took part in such a special moment and memory for us. We are forever grateful for his ability and professionalism. THANK YOU KURT!

Please book Kurt for your wedding whether it be for your ceremony, cocktail hour, reception or just brunch. As a wedding planner planning my own wedding was tough, he made it seamless and guests are still texting me about him. He’s just amazing.

Wedding•Reviewed on March 9, 2019•From New York City, NY

Kurt played at our wedding in January, and he was amazing! He’s an extremely talented musician, both vocally and as a guitarist. He did a fantastic job with the songs we included in our ceremony. And, his selection of songs for the rest of our event was perfect for our crowd. Our guests loved him as much as we did—so much so that we asked him to stay beyond our original plan of just cocktails to all through dinner. Kurt is super talented, professional, and just a really nice person on top of it. We can’t recommend him enough. He’s awesome!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on December 20, 2018•From Manhattan, NY

Kurt was just amazing! Aside from his talent, he was so accommodating to our requests and extremely pleasant to work with. Many of my friends were requesting his card after our event after hearing him all afternoon. We had so many guests who gave great feedback in regards to the music. Kurt made our special day that much more special. Thank you!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on November 19, 2018•From West Orange, NJ

Kurt was so wonderful to work with. The ease of booking was awesome. He was early and well-prepared and dressed really nice. We had two rooms that were connected and he went from one room to another as needed making the flow of the party more enjoyable. I can't say enough how wonderfully talented he is and so professional. I would highly recommend Kurt for any function. I will definitely call him again.

Kurt was a dream to work with, he accommodated our every need and went above and beyond on the day. His voice is incredible, such a talent! If you're looking for a chill, talented and amazing acoustic guitarist than this is your man... highly recommend. Our long regret is we didn't book him for longer on the day.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 18, 2018•From New York City, NY

We booked Kurt for a wedding ceremony in the Ladies Pavilion at Central Park after watching his videos on Gig masters. During the run up to the wedding he kept on touch and accommodated the music requests we had. He also accommodated a special request to have the bride and grooms nephew sing with him after the ceremony as a special surprise. He turned up on time to the venue and played beautifully during the ceremony and afterwards. We couldn't reccomend him highly enough.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 1, 2018•From Yonkers, NY

Kurt was very professional! I am very happy that I hired his service to sing and play at my party. He was on time and very accommodating to my guests. He even offered to help us to move some of the tables because it started to drizzle at the end of my party. I will definetely recommend and hire him again if I need someone to entertain my guests again. I personally told him that! Thank you Kurt!

Engagement Party•Reviewed on July 15, 2018•From Staten Island, NY

Kurt was wonderful beginning to end. He was responsive in the months leading to my event and answered every email promptly. His talent was the perfect addition to the event as well! He arrived early and continued providing the party with music right until the very end. Every song sounded perfect and we received many compliments, a few even asking for his business card! We would definitely recommend Kurt and hire him for another gig!
