Mark was very attentive to our requests. This was the second time we had Mark play at an event. He is very personable and talented, plus we felt fortunate to have had him play beautiful classical Spanish guitar compositions for our guests.

A very talented musician! It made the afternoon event at our winery very pleasant and enjoyable. We had a theme of Spain, with paella and spanish charcuterie so the guitarist really tied it all together!

Wedding•Reviewed on October 25, 2019•From San Francisco, CA

We and our guests were shocked by Mark’s unprofessionalism at our wedding ceremony. He made multiple mistakes in the bride’s processional song; they make us cringe whenever we watch the video. Then, when we had just been pronounced husband and wife and were ready to take our first steps down the aisle, no music played. We finally looked over and saw MARK HAD BEEN EATING DURING OUR CEREMONY and we had to wait while he picked up his guitar!! The ceremony was only 20 minutes long! To add insult to injury, he tried to make fun of the bride’s name with the groom before the ceremony. Really wish we had hired someone who understands the importance of a couple’s wedding.

I made no mistakes during the Processional songs:) bride requested ā€œ overjoyedā€ by Stevie wonder a beautiful song, However it is a song That requires A seven piece band. I Made it clear with the Bride and coordinator via Email there is no Solo guitar version available, however if they could provide me with one I would be more than happy to perform it. I heard nothing back from either one of them. So I performed ā€œhere comes the sunā€, Which the guests Loved.The DJ Play their requested song Immediately Following the ceremony. I drank a glass of iced tea ( no food was available) and performed 30 minutes longer than schedule. Treated very badly by the

Mark was incredibly easy to work with as our guitarist for our small office event. He was always easy to contact and had a high level of professionalism which made party planning a breeze! My guests loved his song selection, friendly personality, and musical ability. We would love to work with him again in the future.

Celebration•Reviewed on September 16, 2019•From Concord, CA

Mark was prompt, provided appropriate music, skill level was good, his audio equipment was good and he was sensitive to the requirements of the space and attendees. I would retain him again. My only suggestion is that his clothes, although appropriate, could have been more professional for this type of event , ie, all black or black and white.

Our event was short & sweet, only 2 hours. Mark was the perfect addition. His music created a beautiful background for our Company's Paella Mixer. He arrived right on time and dived right into playing.

Mark was the perfect guitarist for event. He was very professional from the beginning, which made my job as coordinator easier. He showed up early, Knew exactly what to do, and most importantly, played amazing guitar music. Guests in fact requested for him to play an extra hour which he gladly did. We will definitely hire him for next event next year. Thank you, Mark!

Memorial Service•Reviewed on March 6, 2019•From Castro Valley, CA

Mark was very personable and professional. Upon deciding that he would be the guitarist for my husband's memorial service, Mark personally called me and asked about my husband. We spoke and the conversation flowed to the point that I felt I had made the right choice. He arrived on time and was very discreet and let me tend to my guests. He just knew what to do without me having to tell him anything. Definitely would recommend Mark.

One suggestion, the amp should be a higher quality for a more clear and crisp sound...

Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 20, 2017•From Petaluma, CA

Five stars all the way! Mark even played music for a Flamenco Dance Performance I booked separately. I hired him to play for the cocktail hour through dinner and then for the performance ... I would hire him again in a heartbeat! He selected the perfect combination of music for the three stages of the party.
