Review by Kelly S.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 13, 2015•From Smithville, NJ

Stephen Kleiman was outstanding. He is clearly very talented. He was polite from the first contact and promptly answered all of our questions. He showed up and was prepared in advance of our wedding ceremony. He seemed to understand that the ceremony was not about him as much as the bride and groom. He came in quietly, played the music we requested (very well, by the way), quickly introduced himself to me after the ceremony as we were taking pictures, and quietly packed his equipment before he left. I would definitely recommend him to friends and acquaintances for weddings and other events.

Wedding•Reviewed on October 19, 2015•From Media, PA

Stephen is an amazing musician, highly professional, incredibly flexible, easy to work with, and reasonably priced. My wife and I hired Stephen and a guitarist he brought in at our request to play Italian-style mandolin and guitar for our outdoor wedding ceremony and cocktail hour at a State Park in Delaware County. Everyone loved it! On a stressful day Stephen provided relief not only through his beautiful mandolin playing, but through his flexibility and professionalism. He knew exactly what to play and where to be and was able to play at multiple locations with minimal set-up (without electrical hook up). Would hire him for longer if I could do over! -Franco

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 1, 2015•From Bear Creek, PA

Our wedding was 1.5-2 hours away from the Philadelphia area and Stephen did not hesitate to make the drive. He arrived plenty early to set up, played beautifully, and added the perfect touch to our event with his mandolin abilities. We specially asked for 2 songs to be learned and Stephen did a wonderful job with both of them (Find a River by Lowell George and Chemicals Collide by Cloud Cult). Communication before the event was great - he was always quick to reply and very easy to work with. My husband and I would recommend Stephen to anyone. Thank you, Stephen, for sharing your incredible talent with us!

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on September 16, 2015•From Philadelphia, PA

Sam and Stephen were great. They even learned to play my daughter's favorite song in advance of the party. They also played a request on the spur of the moment. They really were a joy to work with.

Luau Party•Reviewed on July 26, 2014•From Philadelphia, PA

They played exactly what we requested...and it was a strange request! But Stephen helped to make our event successful and contributed to the overall enthusiasm and vibrancy of our party. Thanks again!!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on May 9, 2014•From Audubon, PA

Stephen was excellent in sharing his musical talents with our employees and our guests! He was extremely professional and even more so talented in his musical abilities. I would refer Stephen to any of my friends and colleagues and will definitely be inviting Stephen back for our next event!

Wedding•Reviewed on November 12, 2013•From Philadelphia, PA

Stephen did an amazing job! He was so easy to work with and very accommodating. We asked if could bring a second musician with him at the last minute and he made it happen! They played during the cocktail hour of our wedding reception and everyone was raving about the banjo players! With all of the stress of wedding planning, Stephen made this aspect easy and enjoyable. Thank you!

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on October 21, 2013•From Philadelphia, PA

Stephen and his colleague played for my daughter's 5 year old birthday party. He played a number of children's songs and a few other songs as well. The adults and children really enjoyed the performance. He is an accomplished musician and his demeanor was professional and fun which was perfect for our daughter's party. I highly recommend Stephen to anyone who is looking for a guitar/mandoline/singing performance. P.S. I wanted to give 5 stars across the board but the survey would not allow me to do so. The 4.5's in my survey should be. 5 stars .

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 6, 2013•From Holicong, PA

Stephen provided quality music for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He was very easy to work with - We requested 2 non-standard classical pieces for our entrance and exit music, which he easily honored. For the rest of the cocktail hour he played some acoustic favorites, and our guests remarked on how great the music was. We would definitely recommend working with Stephen.

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on June 28, 2013•From Malvern, PA

A real professional with great music and people skills. He got down on one knee to serenade a little girl. Several guests asked for referrals. We were happy to provide them with info.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 29, 2012•From Philadelphia, PA

Stephen Kleiman was wonderful! I needed music for my intimate wedding ceremony, but wanted something unexpected--the banjo! Stephen was very efficient with explaining to me the differences between types of banjos and even sent me a soundbite to be sure that's what I really wanted. My guests were definitely surprised, but delighted with Stephen's playing abilities. I only wish I got to hear more of it myself! He was very professional and not to mention friendly. I would recommend him to any of my friends or family.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 4, 2012•From Harleysville, PA

Mr. Kleiman provided the perfect accompanient for an infirmed 90 year olds birthday party. The entertainment was enjoyed by all and the "Birthday Boy" was able to sing along with every song. I would certainly recommend Mr. Kleiman for anyone looking for banjo entertainment for there event.
