Art Gallery Opening•Reviewed on March 5, 2016•From Chicago, IL
I was lucky enough to have Hector Fernandez play at a gallery exhibit opening of mine in the River North area of Chicago on 3/4/16. Both his playing and his responsiveness leading up to the event could not have been more perfect. Several of my friends and family told me how much they enjoyed his beautiful music, none more than I.
I only rated Hector five stars in each category because that was the highest number allowed.

Hector was a true professional, and played beautifully at our wedding. Many guests commented on how lovely the music sounded. Communicating him was also very easy. We would not hesitate to recommend to others for their special events. Thank you Hector!
Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 20, 2015•From Chicago, IL
Hector plays beautifully and picked the perfect pieces for every moment of the ceremony. His repertoire is extensive so he entertained our guests after the ceremony for a full hour. The wedding was pastoral, so the acoustic guitar and Hector's varied program fit right in to our rustic, yet elegant, setting. Hector provided a classy, high caliber program that included a variety of musical styles that was enjoyed by all of our guests.
Studio Session•Reviewed on August 16, 2015•From Chicago, IL
I worked with Hector for getting some classical guitar tracks recorded on a song I had written. He did a great job
in converting my ideas into beautiful guitar tracks. He also went the extra mile of adding riffs and a nice instrumental bridge.
Very easy to work with, accommodating and extremely talented. Would love to work with him again.
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 17, 2015•From Hinsdale, IL
I couldn't be more delighted by the experience I had with Hector. Not only is he a highly-talented musician, but is the utmost professional-- kind, trustworthy, and accommodating. We spoke on the phone a month before my event, discussing the nature/tone of the gathering, miscellaneous details, and Hector provided me with very helpful suggestions. Any time I contacted him he always responded immediately.
On the day of the performance, Hector arrived promptly and wowed a crowd of 22 music aficionados for three hours. His music provided the finishing touch to a perfect atmosphere. I will be hiring Hector to play for me again (and a number of my guests will be too).

Hector did an amazing job playing for my wedding ceremony and then cocktail hour. Though I never had the chance to speak with him the day of my ceremony, I could hear his beautiful music and I have to say that he is incredibly talented! He arrived early to set up, worked with my event planner to coordinate parking, etc. and was responsive to my requests. Prior to the day-of, he made sure I had all his song samples and was willing to learn any special song requests. Overall, I give him an A+!!
Graduation Party•Reviewed on July 14, 2013•From Aurora, IL
Mr. Fernandez was the perfect addition to a lovely summer evening party. He arrived on time, was gracious and accommodating to our outdoor arrangements.
We very much enjoyed his selections and enthusiasm for accommodating our music requests. He was very talented and seemed to enjoy our company.
Since the party I have had several guests comment on how talented and enjoyable our time with Mr. Fernandez was. I would recommend him highly and without hesitation.
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 3, 2013•From Oak Lawn, IL
Hector was so talented and absolute outstanding performer. He is a very pleasant man with a very nice personality. You can tell he really loves playing guitar. Everyone at my party kept asking me about him and raving about him. My guests really enjoyed his music. Also, Hector's volume was perfect. At my venue we were at a restaurant in a party room and his music was absolutely perfect.
I will definitely be hiring Hector for my next event! I have to emphasize that hiring him
made me look like a genius to all my friends and family
Because he really made the party special and memorable.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 20, 2017•From Lake Geneva, WI
Hector did a great job playing during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. We asked him a few weeks before the wedding if he could put together a sample of one of our favorite songs, "First Day of My Life" by Bright Eyes and literally 2 days later he emailed us a beautiful cover of it. Everyone at our wedding was incredibly impressed with him. We definitely would recommend him.
Restaurant Event•Reviewed on November 13, 2012•From Chicago, IL
This group rocked. "Awesome" was the predominant word among the audience used to describe the gig, the musicianship, and the quality of music. A MUST SEE...
Wedding•Reviewed on August 9, 2013•From Waukegan, IL
Besides marrying my wife hiring Hector was the best decision i made. His talent, his aura plus the enviroment made a pretty surreal ceremony and reception! My wife and I are already planning the anniversary party... we'll be there and guess who else will be there?... Yes you're right. Hats off to Hector, you made our wedding night that much more memorable!

They were marvelous. They set the tone for the event and made it memorable. Many of our guests were interested in having them at future events. They were a dream to work with.
They had class and were the highlight of the event.
Thank you, can't wait to see them again.
