Working with Melody was a great experience! She was flexible with my date and time changes and worked with me to put on a corporate performance to celebrate lunar new year. She played a mix of traditional chinese songs and modern american pop, even played Michael Jackson based on the audience request. I would definitely hire Melody again.
