Private Party•Reviewed on November 11, 2023•From Southport, CT

Mike was such a nice addition to our gathering! And an intuitive and skillful accompanist to the singer. Nice job.

Private Party•Reviewed on January 1, 2020•From Stamford, CT

Mike was very professional. Arrived early and immediately set to work to make our New Year's Eve party a success. He played continuously and very well. I have no hesitation in recommending Mike for a private cocktail party to provide American Songbook and Broadway music. He does not sing.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 1, 2019•From Shelton, CT

Mike is a consummate professional. His list of standards was endless, and he was a huge hit with the 50-90 year old group at a 85 Year Birthday Party Celebration As requests came in, he adapted his play list on the fly. Based on the response, he will earn more gigs from this group.

Mike was great! He played for my wedding ceremony and the cocktail hour. It added another level of elegance. He is very professional. He responds quickly and is accommodating. He made the process simply and stress free. I highly recommend Mike to everyone.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 22, 2017•From New Canaan, CT

Went above and beyond. Took notes of favorites from our conversation and played them throughout the evening. Accompanied a few singers who wanted to share their talents and prepared the music in advance in their key. Was friendly and engaging and a true professional.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on February 12, 2017•From Milford, CT

What a pro! He played our surprise party and was just terrific. My family is pretty loud and rowdy, but that didn't phase Mike. Great addition to the atmosphere -- would hire again.

Celebration•Reviewed on October 30, 2016•From New York City, NY

I hired mike and a bassist to play some elegant background jazz (no singing) for the celebratory dinner party of my wedding evening. It was held on Madison Avenue upper east side large apartment. It was truly a VERY elegant evening and mike and his bassist fit right in. We didn't even realize they were there. It set a beautiful tone for the evening of cocktail hour chatter and a catered, waiter service dinner party. He played all the songs I requested plus his list of classics. It was the perfect pair for the perfect evening! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 21, 2014•From Fairfield, CT

Mike was terrific! We had a loud crowd and he did a great job. When we did the sing along, he was great at leading us, helping us regroup when we messed up the Twelve days of Christmas and just an overall pleasure to work with! Would love to have him again.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 20, 2014•From Bridgewater, CT

Mike was amazing! He handled special requests wonderfully. He was willing to play songs I selected from an old Swiss songbook for my mom's 85th birthday. He was very accommodating when the group of little old ladies wanted to sing along in German. I appreciated that he was able to stay and play a little longer than expected. He was charming & gracious and brought incredible joy to our birthday celebration. He was absolutely the highlight of the party. I would recommend him unequivocally.
