Review by Cheryl F.

Private Party•Reviewed on February 19, 2024•From Winters, CA

Mark was the perfect fit for our party. He created the atmosphere we wanted at the volume we desired. Everyone raved about his talent and his ability to play. All of my interactions with Mark prior to the event were professional, friendly and trustworthy. He proved to be the musician that was perfect to hire: he was talented, arrived on time and was ready when promised, was professional and very kind. I would definitely recommend Mark to others. Thank you, Mark!

Hi cheryl, Thank you for the very nice perfect review. I really appreciate it and I enjoy what I do and it was a perfect event.. please feel free to contact me for future events. Thank you, mark

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on January 3, 2023•From Glen Ellen, CA

I recently went through my wedding album from 2019 and was transported to the moment when I was walking down the aisle and Mark began playing the Beatles' Blackbird. Mark is an amazing guitarist who selected and played some beautiful pieces of music for our ceremony and during photos afterwards.

Hi stephanie, I hope all is well.. Thank you very much for the great review. It really means a lot to me and helps get more work. Take care, mark

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 29, 2019•From Oakland, CA

Mark's performance was a great addition to the small birthday party held in my backyard. The music was fun and enjoyable for my guests. Mark was very communicative leading up to the party and made sure to obtain the details he needed to provide professional service. Thanks!

Club Event•Reviewed on July 1, 2019•From Sonoma, CA

Mark was very accommodating and friendly. He was flexible with his placement during the evening and played the whole time. The music was lovely and he provided his own amp and mic along with two guitars. Next time I would connect with him in advance regarding meals/drinks provided and attire as I was unaware he was expecting food and drink during the event (which we didn't account for in preparations) and in addition our event was our fanciest of the year, so I should have mentioned a suit or slacks would have been more appropriate than jeans. Overall, very good!

Mark is a true professional - everything went according to plan, he was very accommodating to our needs about volume and such, and as expected he played beautifully. We would certainly hire him again for an event.

Mark is a very talented guitarist who really helped to make my moms special birthday party event a huge success! He played such a wonderful variety of songs at just the right volumn for that perfect blend needed at a party. Mark is a true professional and would be an asset to any event!

Wedding•Reviewed on August 28, 2017•From Healdsburg, CA

Mark was great from start to finish. Easy to work with, responsive, talented, and friendly. My only bummer was as I was ready to walk down the isle I noticed he played the wrong song. No one else could have known but it was important to me that the song I chose for that special moment was played and unfortunately it wasn't. Not everything ever goes to plan during a wedding so Ill brush this off as a simple error. My husband and I truly enjoyed every minute of our wedding and were happy to have had Mark help us make that possible.

Alexandra was correct but the problem was the wedding coordinator and maid of honor told me to Play canon in D for the bride and a different song for the bridesmaids . ... so essentially they got confused and understandably so They told me to play canon in D for the bride which is extremely typical. However Alexandria wanted Canon in D for the bridesmaids and a different song for her walk down the aisle . Otherwise as she said, the guests and Bride and groom were very happy with the music and performance. Thank you having me Alexandria! Sincerely Mark

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 12, 2017•From Healdsburg, CA

We were very pleased with the quality of Mark's work. It had more depth in musical quality than others we had looked into. Mark was great with listening to our requests, yet making suggestions also. He delighted our guests with his music. He would be our first choice!

Rehearsal Dinner•Reviewed on October 29, 2016•From Oakland, CA

Mark was a delight. Easy to work with, very professional, an excellent musician and his music was perfect for my Paella party. Of course he also plays other styles as well and at the end of the night we had him playing some Celtic tunes too. He communicated with me during my planning phase and was very responsive to my time adjustments. His music set the tone for my entire event. Beautiful. Thanks Mark

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on May 22, 2016•From Sacramento, CA

Mark is fantastic. He played for us at our wedding reception at Lucca in Sacramento May 7th. He set the tone with his talented guitar. Very, very talented. He fit in just like family. His music was a wonderful compliment in the garden setting. Everyone loved him. So friendly, accommodating, and professional. The reception would not have been the same without him. Thank you Mark!!!! Kent and Mae

Review by David G.

Wedding•Reviewed on February 21, 2016•From Sonoma, CA

I can sum it up in three words.. Mark was AWESOME! He was extremely easy to work with. We had a few elements of the music we wanted to be sure were there and he did the rest. His repertoire is VERY extensive.. from traditional classical guitar pieces to contemporary and lots of things in between. We had a few musicians at the wedding and they asked Mark to play all kinds of things - Yes, Genesis, Led Zeppelin, etc. And he knew them all! I would hire Mark again in a heartbeat.
