Celebration•Reviewed on February 28, 2024•From Seattle, WA
Ford was exactly what we wanted for our event. His selection of songs was interesting and appropriate, and the volume of his music didn't overwhelm the attendees talking and mingling during our event. He was a terrific add to the 2nd year of this now annual event.

thanks for the great review. Feedback is always appreciated and helps fine tune for the next event. Your warm receptive crowd made it a memorable gig. thanks for having me.
best,
Ford

Wedding•Reviewed on April 4, 2023•From Woodinville, WA
Ford was hired as a guitarist for our wedding ceremony and reception. I requested a specific song and he had no problem learning it, playing it and timing my walk down the aisle so it would be perfect. He played background music throughout our reception and did a beautiful job. We would highly recommend him for any event. He arrived early, set up and transitioned completely by himself not once asking us for a thing. He made our reception flawless, cannot thank him enough.

Ford was a wonderful addition to our wedding. He spent extra time planning all of the details with us and everything was flawless. While he started as someone we didn't know, he left us as another friend. Highly recommended.

Retirement Party•Reviewed on July 27, 2017•From Seattle, WA
Ford did a fantastic job of accommodating my needs for my retirement party. He made a special effort to not disturb the event in the next room, but yet was loud enough for everyone in my venue to listen and enjoy his music. As far as the music is concerned, his upbeat jazz music fit right in to the occasion. I received numerous compliments on finding him.
:
thanks Tom,
I appreciate the opportunity to play for you and your friends, and the great review. Best wishes in your future. Enjoy your retirement!! I hope our paths cross again.

We had a wonderful time with Ford (Guitar by Ford) playing popular melodies and taking requests for different songs by our guests. He played beautiful background music for our Party and gave it the right mood. Everybody
liked Ford. Hi was also open to talk about his music and his life as a musician.
We recommend him for any garden or house party - we had fun!

Ford is amazing!!! He really paid attention to every detail of our wedding and made it so special. His ability to play the guitar is incredible. He was able to play every song that I requested and it sounded great! We also really enjoyed his original music. I would highly recommend him to play music at your event. He will NOT disappoint! Very talented musician.....

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 2, 2015•From Poulsbo, WA
Ford was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. My daughter - the bride, chose some less traditional songs for her processional for him to learn acoustically. I now understand all that goes into timing a chorus in a song so it doesn't sound choppy or pieced together. He knew how to make the music flow seamlessly and beautifully. Our guests really appreciated the ambiance his music brought to the cocktail hour - professional and classy. He was an important part of the overall success of this wonderful day. I highly recommend Ford.

Private Party•Reviewed on June 7, 2018•From Seattle, WA
Ford, We were so happy with your music, but mid-event, a man in a wheel-chair accidentally drove over your cords. You threw a fit that everyone witnessed, and we bit our tongue. That elderly man passed away last month, and well now I have the courage to tell you that you were THE ONLY LOW POINT IN AN OTHERWISE very special wedding. PLEASE REMEMBER IN THE FUTURE THAT WHAT MATTERS IN LIFE IS HOW YOU MAKE OTHERS>>>>> FEEL
:
hi Julie,
I remember the situation well. I remember panic, not fit. The amp crashing to the floor and running across the room to save my guitar from being next put my heart in my mouth. I had a word with him twice to let him know it was ok- at the time, and when they left. i did not want him to feel bad- it was an accident. I am sorry to hear of his passing and if my actions appeared unprofessional. I appreciate your review, I have a fond memory of the gig - awesome setting and very comfortable crowd. Thanks for the reminder; my music is designed to enhance - not detract. I was aware of that at the time, so humbly apology if my demeanor got the best of me.

Ford is friendly, professional and talented. He arrived with plenty of time to set up, and conferred with me about music selection. Loved the variety of classical, jazz & cover of “classic rock”. It created the perfect mood for my laid-back, friendly birthday party. People stopped by afterwards to thank him for his music. I’ll hire him again & recommend him to friends.
