John’s musical skills, personality, and music selections were wonderful. His trio were equally proficient. Our large party were very enthusiastic the whole evening. John helped make the occasion a huge success.

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on October 3, 2025From Madison, GA

John is incredibly talented, kind, and professional! He truly provided exactly what we wanted for my daughter’s wedding service and cocktail hour. My neice planned to sing a song and they met briefly before the wedding to rehearse and it was perfect! John engaged a cello player to join him, as we requested and for music was beautiful!!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on August 30, 2024From Clayton, GA

It was an absolute blessing to have John performing. The wedding ceremony was a dream come true for my daughter and her husband. It’s hard to describe the emotions of how the music filled the room with the sacredness of the moment, joy and reverence. John’s talent is a true gift and he is a joy to be around. I will definitely recommend him and next opportunity when a pianist will be needed, I know for sure who I’ll reach out.

Thank you so much, Maria! I appreciate your kindness, professionalism, and warm welcome on the big day. Looking forward to work together again!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on October 14, 2023From Atlanta, GA

We were honored and delighted to work with John Burke for our wedding ceremony and reception. He performed a combination of his own compositions as well as selections that my spouse and I wanted for our interlude and procession. He is kind, prompt, and played beautifully. He was very attentive and performed my entrance song at the tempo I had requested. I would gladly work with him again and recommend him highly.

Review by Jarrett K.

Retirement PartyReviewed on March 12, 2023From Roswell, GA

We hired John to play a 4 hour retirement party and he did an outstanding job reading the "room", kept the ambiance just right and even took requests on the fly. Admittedly, John is not a vocalist but is a PHENOMENAL musician, which worked perfectly as we wanted the music to be the backdrop, not the focus. Prior to the event, John scheduled a short call with us to understand what we wanted and delivered exactly as discussed. He was on time, set up quickly and was on point the whole evening. He really enjoyed guest interaction and kept the music flowing effortlessly. John is very personable, brings great energy and creates a wonderful vibe. Thanks, John!

Playing for Jarrett and Vicky was a pleasure! They are kind, wholesome, and gracious. Thanks so much for a wonderful event!

Corporate FunctionReviewed on December 19, 2015From Duluth, GA

John was a pleasure to work with, from the beginning stages of contact on gig masters to the performance onsite. He is highly responsive, positive and enthusiastic and with little detailed direction from me, he provided exactly the musical enhancements we wanted at exactly the time we needed them. His music is supurb. Hire John. You won't be disappointed.

:

Katie was a fantastic person to work with. I appreciate her timeliness, courtesy, and professionalism. I always felt informed and prepared with the gig. I wish all of my clients were as wonderful as Katie! Thank you so much!
