December 7, 2025Phenomenal music, punctual, kind!
We loved Alex's Guitar during our daughter's engagement/Thanksgiving. Alex played some of the best music from 1990s as requested. Alex's music elevated our event very much. Alex was punctual, kind, responsive and so supportive. I will hire him again for any event in Connecticut! Thank you Alex!
