Celebration•Reviewed on August 13, 2013•From Wheaton, IL
I knew Franklin would be good, but he was better than I anticipated. He sang and played background music for our recent party honoring our son & daughter-in-law. One of my guests, who is a musician, told me, "Everyone thinks he's good, but they don't realize how good ". He answered every email, arrived on time, and was so friendly with my guests. If I could, would give him ten stars for overall satisfaction.
Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 6, 2011•From Galena, IL
Franklin did a wonderful job at my wedding ceremony. He learned songs that I asked (with an additional fee for a couple), played at the level of sound needed for inside a church, all with a very calm and positive attitude. Thanks so much for recommending him!
Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 16, 2010•From Cape Girardeau, MO
Franklin took care of all of his arrangements, helped relieve the wedding stress, and was very warm and generous to everyone at the party. Many people asked me how they could reserve him in the future and if they could purchase CDs. His performances are relaxed, fun, and very artistic. His song selection is equally wonderful, he plays something for everyone.
Graduation Party•Reviewed on May 26, 2010•From Lisle, IL
Franklin's performance was superb and his playlist was extensive. He is extremely talented, covering a myriad of different artists, presenting with an uncanny likeness to their vocals. Due to his skills in formating the music, his electric acoustic guitar has much more depth than a single intsrument.
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 17, 2009•From River Grove, IL
Franklin was great to work with. He sent a list of titles to choose from, and even played some not on his original list. He was very professional, and the group just loved his music. He has a great voice, and is an accomplished musician. I would hire him again!

Franklin was fantastic! He was very professional, yet very nice and approachable. My guests raved about his music and singing. It was the perfect background music before the ceremony, and during and after dinner. I cannot recommend him enough. My husband and I were very very pleased with Franklin and would recommend him highly for any event.
Wedding•Reviewed on June 7, 2008•From Naperville, IL
Franklin was wonderful! I wanted to do something special for my wedding ceremony music, and he exceeded my expectations. He was patient and helpful with me through the entire planning process, exchanging many emails and phone calls. On the day of the wedding he showed up an hour early to set up and make sure he knew his cues. The wedding music was amazing! We were able to personalize our ceremony music to make it memorable for us and our guests.

Wedding•Reviewed on July 15, 2006•From Chicago, IL
Franklin is an extremely talented musician. I had so many compliments from our wedding guests. The guests were so happy with his song selection and were pleased to have a live singer, rather than a DJ. When I requested a particular song to be played, that wasn't on his song list, he graciously let us write the words down, and he played the song anyway. He was also helpful in recommending a father/daughter dance.
I would recommend Franklin for your event. He was nice, on-time, professional, and entertaining.
