Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on December 23, 2025•From Granite Bay, CA
I highly recommend Matt. His talent is next-level. He's very personable, showed up on time, extended his playing at our request, and was low key but a big presence at our party. He charges a bit more than the average act, but well worth it! Can't wait to have him back!

We had Matt play at our Annual Conference Awards Reception and Dinner. He was familiar with the venue and had suggested a plan to accommodate playing at both the outdoor reception and an indoor dinner awards show. His talent was amazing! His professionalism and ability to read the room made it easy for him to work through and around our awards ceremonies and close us out for the night with music. I would certainly bring him back to perform at another event and would be happy to refer him to play at any type of event. Great Job, Matt!!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on February 9, 2022•From Soquel, CA
We hired Matt to play at my mom's 90th birthday surprise party. It was a small gathering in my backyard. He was amazing! Everyone loved his singing, his music, his songs! He needed just a small space so we had lots of room for dancing. He was a one man band. He played guitar, drums, piano...no need for more people. :) The lights that he had on himself and equipment provided a warm, cozy, festive atmosphere. My mom had such a fun time dancing and listening to all her favorite songs. It was a night we will remember always. Thank you Matt!

Matt played two songs at our wedding and was fabulous. We'd hire him again in a second. Not only is he responsive, he's extremely talented as a musician.

Matt made my wedding amazing! He learned a special song I requested (at the last minute) and NAILED IT! He was so friendly and easy to work with- I’d hire him again in a heartbeat!

Matt killed it! We booked Matt for a small afternoon party for ~80 people for about 3 hours and he did a great job for us. High quality musicianship, great song selection (he picked most, but took some late requests from the crowd) and the uniqueness of his act ended up being one of the highlights of the party. He's also a very nice guy and was very low maintenance (sorry we ate all the lobster rolls Matt!). We'd hire him again without a doubt and think other attendees would agree. Thanks Matt!

Matt did a fantastic job for my 50th birthday party! He was professional, and worked really hard to make sure the evening was perfect. We had a small space and didn’t have room for a full band, but Matt created the sound of a full band and played a wide range of music through cocktails, dinner, and the dancing. You can’t go wrong in having Matt play for your event!

Thank you so much Nicole! It was a pleasure to play for your friends and family. That was such a great party. Happy 50th!

Matt Bolton was one of the highlights of our wedding! He is amazingly talented and was so accommodating with last minute changes. He pulled the whole thing off seamlessly with very little direction. I can't wait to see him perform again!

Thank you Rashin! Playing your wedding at Ventana in Big Sur was an honor. Absolutely one of the most beautiful venues in the world with a really fun dancing party on the deck overlooking the setting sun! Unbelievable! I look forward to seeing you both in Canada for another party next summer! ;)
