Matthew performed for my wife's 30th birthday party, and he was amazing! His communication leading up to the event was great and he worked with us to curate a perfect song list. Matthew was extremely punctual on the day of the event. He arrived well before to get all set up and started playing right on time. Our guests have not stopped raving about how great his music was. I will be hiring Matthew again for sure for the next event we need music for, and I highly recommend him to everyone!

Matt was so great to work with for our wedding. We had him play during the ceremony and cocktail hour. He was willing to learn new songs at our request and on the day of everyone was raving about how wonderful the ceremony and cocktail hour music was! I would recommend him to anyone for their event needs.

What a great night! I reach out with an urgent need for a guitarist. Matthew was prompt and so gracious in his response. I shared a little about our corporate event and with each communication he was open and accommodating. He arrived on time and fully prepared. He is extremely talented. We could have listened to him all night. Covers and originals, he can do it all. He also “read the room” on volume and mix of musical styles. Our business crowd even stopped networking so they could enjoy his music and stylings. I highly recommend hiring Matthew, he will not disappoint! Perfect night thanks to Matthew!

Matt has a great voice. I told him what type of guests were coming and he catered to that need. Very professional yet easy going. Everyone loved him.

Matthew played the part of "street musician" while my girlfriend and I walked by and then broke out into a custom song I had asked him to learn and sing. It was especially complicated as the song music is not available publicly, so he had to figure it out by ear. She recognized the song immediately, and then I proposed, and she said yes! Thanks to Matthew for making this work so perfectly!
