Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 8, 2023•From Salem, WI

Most importantly, the music was great. John is talented and plays his genre well. He communicated with me prior to the event when I reached out. He came prepared with guitar, amp, and mic like I had asked. He arrived early to set up, warm up, and test. His attire matched the needs of the event/venue. He was professional and courteous. He delivered on everything I had hoped for.

Thanks Jason. I had a great time playing for your family and friends. Your grandmother's birthday was really nice.

Art Gallery Opening•Reviewed on October 9, 2022•From Addison, IL

John Behling played at my opening reception at an art gallery. His beautiful music added the perfect touch, at the perfect volume, with the perfect level of engagement with the attendees. He brought sophisticated equipment, which kept his acoustic guitar sounding absolutely acoustic, no trace of that electrified sound. During the event I heard many compliments about his music, with some hoping to hire him for future events they have planned as well. I hope to hire him again in the future. A solid five stars!

John was perfect for our holiday party of about 150 people. He was organized and very communicative before the event - also a really nice guy. Will definitely reach out to him again for future entertainment needs.

John was such nice and professional musician. He delighted my friends with his wonderful guitar work! He played on my porch outside for about 20 friends and neighbors and every face had a smile while he played. I would recommend him to anyone wanting a professional guitarist!

Thanks Jennifer. I had a great time playing for you and your friends.

Community Event•Reviewed on August 26, 2019•From Chicago, IL

My wife and I love Spain, and John brought a little taste from Seville to our block party this weekend! He certainly added to the atmosphere! As a wedding officiant, I will also recommend him to my couples for their wedding ceremonies!

Michael, Thanks, I had a wonderful time playing for you and your friends at the block party. It couldn't have been a nicer evening. Thanks, too, for recommending me to your couples.

We hired John to play at our wedding ceremony and were very satisfied. He played 2 songs he had listed on his website beautifully and also did a great job with a song we had requested as well. We would recommend John to anyone!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on June 26, 2018•From Lisle, IL

John was very personable and professional. Our anniversary event was an open house in our woodland backyard. I was very pleased to see he was dressed in a black suit, white shirt and tie. Everyone raved that his music greatly enhanced the ambiance of our celebration. His music transformed a celebratory time to extraordinary!

Review by Ken R.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 2, 2017•From Oak Brook, IL

John was absolutely fabulous!! He communicates well in advance, and was very accommodating and interested in entertaining and pleasing my guests--which he very much did. He is an extremely talented and accomplished musician, and doing business with him was a breeze and a pleasure. My guests and I guests thoroughly enjoyed his music. I can't wait to hire him again--I just might have to organize another party soon for the sole purpose of bringing him back. If you like what you hear of John's audio and video samples on the GigMasters website, you will not be disappointed if you hire John.

Thanks Ken, I had a great time playing for you and your guests. It was a lovely party.
