Restaurant Event•Reviewed on July 13, 2009•From Seaside Park, NJ

Scott was very professional and plays a mean guitar! The crowd loved him and are demanding that we have him back. We look forward to working with him again shortly!

Funeral•Reviewed on July 5, 2009•From Freehold, NJ

Scott was very professional and honored our family's request. Scott played an acoustic guitar at my father's Interment. His music selection was appropriate, soothing and his presence non-intrusive. The music added comfort upon arrival and departing of the cemetery. It was the perfect send off. I look forward to the opportunity of using Scott again under happier circumstances.

Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 30, 2009•From Tappan, NY

My family and I thought that you did a fantastic job at Melissa's Graduation Party. As soon as we got back to the house, all everyone could talk about was how impressed they were with your guitar/vocal talent! We certainly recommend you to all those looking for a perfect blend of professionalism, showmanship and entertainment. Thank you so much for your time, talent, and consideration!

Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 21, 2009•From Marlboro, NJ

Scott was amazing. He kept the crowd's interest and played every song that was requested. He has hundreds of popular songs memorized and plays them with an original acoustic twist. I would highly recommend him for any occasion of any size. Even though we had horrible weather, he followed the crowd in and out of the house when the rain stopped. He played for 5 hours, only taking 2 short breaks. Scott was very professional and has a great personality. Thanks for making the party a huge success.

Picnic•Reviewed on June 8, 2009•From Princeton, NJ

Scott was very professional and very talented! He had a huge song list and was very happy to accomodate all of our requests. He even let us do an open mic at the end of the event for awhile. He was a lot of fun and helped make the picnic a success. I would definately recommend him to anyone and would be happy to hire him again!

Celebration•Reviewed on May 21, 2009•From Rockaway Park, NY

It was a wonderful addition to have Scott play at our party. His musical talents impressed everyone. Even the most critical family members were complimenting Scott's choice of music and his ability to play such a diverse range of music. From classical to rock he nailed every song. We would not hesitate recommending Scott for anyone's party. He is a true professional. We hope to have Scott play at future events. Christine and Jim

Private Party•Reviewed on May 12, 2009•From Rockville Centre, NY

ONCE AGAIN, Scott Samuels was fantastic, professional and delightful to work with. My son's Communion party was a hit....the audience ranged from 2 to 86 years old, a huge range to keep happy. Working with Scott is effortless and we can't wait to have him to our next party. Thanks for a great day, The Nembach's especially Shane

Wedding•Reviewed on March 22, 2009•From New York City, NY

Scott Samuels was such a pleasure to have for my wedding ceremony. Nearly everyone commented on how much they liked him and how much they enjoyed his music. He even played an acoustic version of a song that was not available on his standard repertoire at my special request. He is very talented, courteous at all times, and so easy to work with. I'd absolutely hire him again for future events and give him my highest recommendations.

Private Party•Reviewed on January 19, 2009•From Peapack, NJ

Scott came to our hospital/school to perform for 2 hours, and he played the whole 2 hours without any break! We all loved his performance! He was able to play a variety of music, and he had excellent guitar skills!!! He was very interactive with our students using music, and it was perfect for our students! We definitely would like to have him back sometime soon!

Wedding•Reviewed on January 3, 2009•From Brookfield, CT

Scott performed at the ceremony and cocktail portions of our wedding and he was awesome! He learned a new song for the processional and played it flawlessly. We found him pleasant to work with, accommodating, honest, and what counts most - his guitar playing and singing were stellar. His repertoire of songs is quite extensive and so many of our friends and family commented on how great he was. His prices are reasonable and we highly recommend Scott to anyone interested in a solid one-man accoustic show for your wedding, party, etc.

Club Event•Reviewed on December 6, 2008•From Newtown, PA

Scott was awesome. His guitar-playing and song repertoire are amazing and cover about anything you can think of. We had Scott perform at my 50th birthday party at our house and he handled the ebb and flow of the evening without a hitch. He handled all requests, softened his songs when needed, and performed when he had an audience. Not only would I recommend him to friends, I will use him again for my wife's 50th. What a find!

Wedding•Reviewed on November 15, 2008•From Schenectady, NY

Scott was amazing, he played for my wedding and did everything perfectly. He played exactly what I wanted and everyone thought he was great. He also played at our cocktail hour and entertained all of our guests. He has accomodated us every step of the way in our long planning of our wedding and he travled a long way to come and make our day extra special. He is extremely talented and professional and it's nice to know you can trust people to make a special day like this come together. Thanks so much!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on November 9, 2008•From New York City, NY

Long after the music ended, our guests were still talking about the magnificent experience created by Scott Samuels. Scott has a natural sense of the appropriate musical accompaniment to make a great event into an exceptional event. He integrated himself into mood of the day by drawing from his vast and diverse selection of music. Scott is an acoustic guitar master; he is very pleasant and accomodating. From Hellen and Harvey Osgood, New York, NY.

Church Service•Reviewed on October 24, 2008•From Wyckoff, NJ

Not only was Scott talented and professional, but he was accommodating and more than a pleasure to deal with on a personal level. His music and song selections were noticed by all our guests at the church and cocktail hour. We would highly recommend him to any of our friends and family and when the next occasion warrants it, would not hesitate to bring him back for an encore. Gratefully submitted by the Klemm Family.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 18, 2008•From Wayne, NJ

Scott performed at my husband's 40th birthday party. He was nothing less than fantastic! Everyone was commenting on how talented he was and how great he sounded. He was professional, courteous and very, very nice. He even let my husband perform a song with him which was awesome. I can't recommend him enough and would love to have him perform at any future event I may have. Bridget McNeill Oak Ridge, NJ

Christening•Reviewed on October 12, 2008•From Rockville Centre, NY

We needed music to entertain our family and friends to celebrate our new five month old daughter Olivia's Baptism / Christening Party at our home. Scott Samuels proved to be a hit with audiences of all ages from our young nephews and nieces, to our parents, to our friends with his renditions of music spanning from the 60's to today! Towards the end of the evening, Scott moved near Olivia and serenaded her with "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" which plays on her mobile attached to her crib. It is our absolute pleasure to personally recommend the very talented and thoughtful Scott Samuels for your Music needs! Rock On Scott!

Wedding•Reviewed on October 11, 2008•From Long Island, NY

Scott performed at my wedding during my ceremony and my cocktail hour. He has created magical moments that will forever be embedded in my mind when I think back to the most important moment of my life. He learned a song that was very important to my Husband and me. As my husband and I walked into our cocktail hour he began to play it. He ochestrted a moment that I will never forget. My guest are still talking about how fantastic he was. Up to the event he was in constant contact with me and was so attentive to all the details. He truly cared about my event. I will be using him for events in the future and referring him to all my friends. Perfect 10!!!

Wedding•Reviewed on October 4, 2008•From New York City, NY

We had previously hired Scott to play at our wedding and when we decided to have another wedding party we knew we wanted him to play. He was very accomodating to our short notice request and arrived with a big smile. He was wonderful about song requests and his laid back personality made him a joy to work with.
