Glen was awesome! He was exactly what we wanted, he is a great communicator, he is an excellent musician, he's super friendly and everybody at the party enjoyed his music and his company. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Glen!!!!

Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 11, 2025•From Stratford, CT

Glen performed at a Holiday Party in the ballroom at our condo development last night and was magnificent. Beautiful voice and terrific guitarist. Our audience loved him. We hired him for 45 minutes, but our guests encouraged him to continue and he performed for over an hour. I highly recommend Glen.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 12, 2024•From Hastings on Hudson, NY

Glen is fantastic. He played a party I threw for my husband’s birthday. Glen was willing to play all of the less-obvious songs we requested; he even took the time to learn songs that he was unfamiliar with. He, and our guests, had a great time. And he’s a nice guy too! I’d recommend him any time.

Thank you for this sweet review, Lisa. I really did have a great time :-) It's always more exciting when I get to play your favorites – thanks for sharing in advance. And all the best to Lou, the birthday king!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 26, 2023•From Fairfield, CT

Glen was a fantastic performer for this birthday party, attended by guests ranging from pre-teen to 80's. His play list was great for the range of demographics for this party and he was very open to taking requests and playing them if he knew them or could quickly look them up. Thanks Glen!

Private Party•Reviewed on August 8, 2023•From New City, NY

Glen fulfilled exactly what we were looking for. Someone who had great energy and spirit about him. He had the ability to choose the right songs at the right time and play them with the right amount of emotion. I would recommend Glen and will be using him if and when he has time in the near future.

Review by Tiago E.

Wedding•Reviewed on August 28, 2022•From Norwalk, CT

Glen was a perfect component to our outdoor wedding. HIs voice is incredible and he followed our song list preference to a T. So lax and lovely and was able to play our favorite music beyond our expectations. Half way through diner, my children even badgered him for quite some time with their own requests. He was so patient and kind with them. Recommending him for your next event would be a complete understatement!!

:

Hello, Tiago! Thank you for this generous and gracious review. I'm still smiling about your beautiful wedding, endless flowers, and newly-painted fence :-) Have many joyful healthy years with your dear Lindsay and boys. Your fan, Glen

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 11, 2016•From Cuddebackville, NY

Glen, exceeded our expectations! Our wedding guests were a mixed group of children, young adults and adults. His playlist got everyone dancing and singing together. He is so talented he played songs just like the original artists. If you are concerned about a single guitar player being able to get the crowd going - no worries - Glen is a professional, talented entertainer who will get your crowd off their seats! He has such a great ability to read the crowd and play songs that interest them. Glen accommodated our musically talented family as well by allowing them to perform a few songs for the guests. You can't go wrong with Glen!

:

Thank you, Mrs. Scardino - and what a musical family you have! Much love to you and Tom on your journey together :-)

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 27, 2015•From Bridgewater, NJ

Myrna & I are award winning writers, but words can't express how delighted we are with Glen's participation at our daughter's 50th birthday party. His exceptional talent is matched by his niceness and every one attending the event told us..."Wow, where did you find that fabulous performer?" Glen also accompanied performances by our granddaughter and Lou and as the evening closed, Glen send everyone out on a high with a fabulous sing-along! We've worked with the biggest names in show business and Glen's performance is up there with the best. Myrna & Lou Binder

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 30, 2013•From Bay Shore, NY

Glen was outstanding! Could not of been more pleased. Family and friends were so pleased they put a collection together as a proposal to stay and play longer. Glen was kind enough to oblige and his presence made our event a great success. We will be sure to request him to return again for our next big party. Much thanks Glen!

Thank you, Steven! And you throw a great party! ~ Glen

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on July 7, 2016•From Stamford, CT

Glen provided our guests with a wonderful experience. Our neighbors, who were also entertaining that evening, enjoyed listening as well! We've had several requests for information about Glen. He serenaded us with his ukelele after we dwindled to an intimate group and took the time to learn our wedding song for this, our anniversary party. I hope we have the opportunity to engage Glen's services again!

Review by Lynda J.

Luau Party•Reviewed on August 31, 2012•From West Point, NY

Glen was very personal, like-able, and extremely talented. Some performers demand to be the life of the party...Glen allowed the party to be the life as he provided a musical atmosphere that felt lively, bubbly, and joyful. Adults loved him, kids loved him, and I couldn't imagine a better boat cruise party. Hire this guy and relax knowing the music is covered!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on October 4, 2015•From Lakeville, CT

Glen was a great choice for the bonfire which finished up our 2 day corporate meeting and teambuilding event. Some times he would sing and some times, when we were talking or all were involved in various discussions, he would simply provide a nice, acoustic medley as the backdrop. The BEST part was when he created a special, surprise song for our group! We simply provided him some random bullets of info about our group and he pulled it together into a great, entertaining and rather lengthy song - it was an awesome surprise - particularly for the boss! Thanks Glen for the great work!

:

Thank you for this gracious review, Beth. Your team at Legrand, North America was extraordinary, and I had a great time composing the song, "Brand Identity Crisis!" (Hard to believe that a title like that could be such a funny song, but it was!) See you at the lake next year!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 15, 2012•From Long Island, NY

Glen was fantastic! He performed at my wedding ceremony and was amazing!!!! I would recommend him to anybody looking for a ukulele player!!!! Thank you Glen for for helping to make my day perfect!!!

:

Hello, Harmony, Thank you! I was delighted to play instrumental ukulele for your beautiful ceremony in the garden at Fox Hollow Country Club – the weather was perfect, your whole bridal party looked fantastic and were so sweet. I loved the selections, too: "La Vie En Rose," "Bubbly," "Hey, Soul Sister," "Better Together," "At Last." What a great day, and I wish you all the very best in your new adventure together! Smiles, Glen
