Overtime pay was not discussed ahead of time. Not all music requested were played due and did not show willingness to try to learn the songs.

Banquet•Reviewed on June 16, 2012•From Lawndale, CA
He showed up early and dressed for our event. seemed like he had it all together,everything was on the lap top and he had all needed equipment to proceed. This was a little more of a bus/corp. stuffy event for me to hire a person that would have worked well with a crowd. Alas,this was not the event for such a thing and I felt bad for Gary as he had no interaction from the crowd. Not his fault by any means.

Funeral•Reviewed on January 5, 2017•From Whittier, CA
What a pro! Gary was incredible. I sent him some simple sheet music ahead of time and he committed it to memory! Halfway through the ceremony, he transitioned from the Harmonica to the Piano and it was a perfect. He was grateful for the opportunity to be involved in our farewell service for a Whittier mayor and icon. Great job, Gary!

It was, indeed, an honor and a privilege to play the memorial for a fellow harmonica player. Monte lived to be 99 and had a blessed life. Thanks for letting me provide music.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on October 17, 2016•From Rancho Mirage, CA
Gary was amazing. Not only did he save me when I really needed a performer at the last minute but when he performed, he could not have been easier to work with and professional. Last, but certainly not least, Gary delivered a great performance for our group and was extremely fun. Corporate events are never easy with everyone talking, but he was great. I will definitely keep his contact info handy for the next event!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 15, 2015•From San Diego, CA
Gary has a long list of songs in his repertoire which allowed us to pick the perfect mix for our party. Have him play Rod Stewart's "Have I told you Lately". It is a very nice touch for your sweetheart.

Funeral•Reviewed on February 15, 2015•From El Cajon, CA
On short notice I was fortunate enough to have Gary accept my request to provide music at my Mother's funeral. He was on time, professional, pleasant and sensitive to the attendees. I asked him to play a song which was not on his song list on the ukulele. He performed beautifully and it was very touching. His music held our service together and everyone commented on how perfect the music was and what a soothing voice he had. I recommend Gary without hesitation. His music comes from the soul.

Wedding•Reviewed on November 12, 2013•From San Diego, CA
We loved Gary! We received so many compliments on his music at our wedding reception! He played the ukulele for our ceremony, then all sorts of other lovely music for our cocktail hour. He even had to move his entire set-up which he wasn't expecting, and was very accommodating. Also, he was so easy to work with pre-wedding - he was very responsive via email and phone, and was so helpful in terms of picking out tunes for the ceremony itself. I will definitely be recommending Gary to friends and family for not only weddings, but parties & other events as well. Thanks again, Gary!
