Review by Katie W.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 3, 2010•From Raleigh, NC

It was amazing to have Matt play at our wedding ceremony. He was easy to book, very responsive to all questions, and easily understood exactly what we wanted for our ceremony. The music itself was so beautiful, and we received many compliments from our guests. The whole experience was one of the easiest parts of our wedding planning process, and Matt's simplicity, professionalism, and reliability were all well appreciated. I would highly recommend Matt to anyone.

Showed up on time, played beautifully, accommodated special requests. He was very calm and professional and talented. Also, his rates are very reasonable compared to other musicians we considered.

Mr. Kanon proved to be a very professional and talented musician. He was very accomidating with our song selections and on the day of the event arrived early, spoke with both me and our wedding director, and ensured that he was prepared for the event. Several of our guests said how enjoyable the music was before the ceremony. The playing during the ceremony was equally wonderful. One of the children in our wedding was a little shy on her entrance but Mr. Kanon continued to play during the entire time of the delay. Should we ever have a need for a live musician in the future, Mr. Kanon would be our choice.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 19, 2010•From Raleigh, NC

Showed up early, played without pause for 2 hours, immaculate dress and bearing. Volume was perfect, contacted us with plenty of time beforehand to learn songs that we would like for our wedding and had suggestions of his own when asked. Overall a wonderful experienced musician. Thank you so much, Matt. Madji and Carolyn

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 5, 2011•From Lexington, VA

Matt was fantastic at our wedding in Lexington. He was professional and played wonderfully. I could hear him playing as I was walking down and was afraid that since my entrance was so long that there wouldn't be enough music. Some how he came through. I didn't even warn him and he was fully prepared! He made our amazing day even more magical!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on May 21, 2011•From Cary, NC

The wedding party arrived 10 minutes late - Mr. Kanon was already set up and playing when we walked in. Prior to the event, I had made several special requests (including some songs that I would like to have played for specific people). Mr. Kanon made sure to play those songs at an appropriate time. I am extremely pleased with his professionalism and talent. I don't think there is any way he could have done a better job.

Matt was amazing! He was easy to book and communicate with, and he is open to any requests for music. He played beautifully at my garden wedding and we couldn't be happier.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 23, 2011•From Fuquay Varina, NC

Matt was professional, talented and flexible. He showed up on time, played what we asked and adjusted to the chance of rain. Matt conviently brought his own speaker system and performed perfectly. Severaly people commented on his performance of "Just Like Heaven" and I would hire him again!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on November 6, 2011•From Kure Beach, NC

We hired Matthew for a small beach wedding ceremony. He was punctual, dressed for the occasion and his music blew us away. He played a George Harrison song as the bride entered and everyone was moved...it was so lovely. He was also willing to change his location from outside to inside with no hassles for the second half of the event. Would recommend him 100 percent. Good times.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 22, 2011•From Pittsboro, NC

Matt was great. He did a fantastic job at our ceremony and cocktail hour. He is also easy to work with, has very affordable rates, and most importantly he is an excellent classical guitarist. He seems to be able to play and learn just about anything with a melody, and truly makes it his own. Highly recommended!
