Bob Millspaugh

Bob was awesome!! He took the time and effort to connect with our guest of honor in music and song, personalizing the event. He selected songs that connected and hit home. A special touch was the personal birthday song. We loved his music!!

Our residents loved Bob so much the first time that they wanted him to come back and play again! He is professional, has a great personality, lovely voice & guitar playing, engages with the crowd, and is easy to work with. I would highly recommend hiring Bob for any event!

There is a difference between performers who are proficient (or even quite skilled) and those who display true artistry. The former is able to make pleasing music; the latter has the ability to connect with the audience. The difference is an experience rather than a mere recital. Experiences make memories.

Bob is clearly gifted with a rich voice, versatile repertoire and easy sense of fun and flexibility. (Side note - as one who has done event planning for many years, I really appreciate the unglamorous -yet-invaluable quality of reliability. Nothing is more frustrating than waiting for a late arrival, or having some last-minute cancellation by a flaky performer, or wondering why calls were unreturned. Bob''s punctuality and professional communication removes that burden from a busy host).

No matter the nature of your event, you can trust Bob to add luster to your party with his talent and make it an affair to remember!

Bob served as an officiant as well as a singer for a memorial at Fairhaven where I work as a service director and celebrant. He did the opening prayer in addition to singing four songs throughout the service . In addition to his powerful yet comforting vocals I was impressed with how he personalized his presentation. He observed the video presentation and listened to the various stories told by family and friends, and picked up on special qualities of the decedent and talked about them before performing his final songs. He found a way to connect with the family and other attendees by sharing some heartfelt comments that were sincere and meaningful.

By doing that he went above and beyond what most musicians, singers etc . do.

It was a special touch that got everyone to pay attention and made a positive difference .

Talk about Fantastic! This was a surprise for my friend for her birthday and everyone else that attended.
Bob was very professional; wrote a beautiful and personal birthday song for her.
His voice is wonderful and his guitar playing outstanding.
Very gracious in every way.
He was the Ice Cream on the cake.
It made the birthday evening perfect and made an impression and remembrance with all.
Hire this gentleman. He truly will exceed your expectations. Truly.
Bob, Thank you ever so much. I am so honored to have met you.

Bob sang at our outdoor funeral service for my husband. It was beautiful - perfect. I received several comments about how great it was. Prior to the service, Bob and I discussed some songs and one of the songs I mentioned was not on his list. This particular song was perfect for my husband, but I completely understood and chose another song. Even though there was a short time before the service, Bob surprised me by offering to learn the song. Every once in while, there is the rare person that enters our life and gives us the gift of themselves and their heart. I cannot say enough how touched I was by his generosity, kindness, support and talent. Bob did a beautiful job with the song and did two others for the service. He really made it special, comforting and memorable. I hope someday to have Bob sing for us at a happier event.

The personal song for the birthday "boy" was the reason for choosing Bob as well as reviewing on Youtube and seeing how good his singing and acoustic guitar playing was. It was a great choice! Thanks Bob!

Bob is such a professional! He was such a joy to work with. He made our residents at our party feel so special! They are still talking about it. Bob is so good at his job and you can tell he is passionate about what he does. He has a great voice and can sing anything! He is an excellent musician and performer. Our party went overtime and Bob stayed and was even helpful at the event. I have hired a lot of entertainers but Bob is definitely one of the best. I will be booking Bob again in the near future. Thanks Bob and Gig Salad for great service!

We hired Bob to do a birthday surprise performance for our mother who was turning 65. We wanted it to be a unique and special experience. Bob went above and beyond what we ever expected. He asked for some personal information to make sure he made the performance extra special. Our mother was brought to tears with the unforgettable music that was created just for her. She said it was the best birthday present she has ever received in her life. Thank you Bob for going above and beyond. I highly recommend him for any events. He is extremely talented!

I had the privilege of Bob doing a concert at my studio. His voice, guitar and presence made for an evening of comforting and intimate entertainment. The evening of music and ambience was like a big warm hug. Bob was extremely personable. The audience absolutely loves him. Bobs original songs go straight to the heart. And his choice of covers are are always on point. Thank you Bob for your gift of music !

I am so impressed with Bob! I contacted him only a few hours before I needed him and he was able to write and perform a hilarious surprise birthday song at my husband’s office in front of his colleagues. Everyone really enjoyed it. Not only that but Bob was so easy to work with and was so kind, respectful and easy-going throughout the whole process. I highly recommend Bob for your next event!

Bob came to our campfire birthday on the beach. He was warm and friendly. I asked that he sing a song with some personal details and he did an amazing job. He made the occasion so special for my boyfriend.

Thanks for a stellar performance that literally had the audience on their feet. Looking forward to more fun ahead!

Bob exceeded my expectations! He was so professional, pleasant and so VERY TALENTED! He even wrote his own music for the guest of honor and everyone was blown away!! Your search is over! Bob is your guy!

We booked Bob for our friends 30th birthday very last minute. He called to get information about her and made her feel so special! I would recommend him to anyone who wants great entertainment!! THANK YOU BOB!

Bob was a fantastic choice for my birthday party. He tailored the song list and even customized the lyrics to make the evening special. He was easy to work with both before and during the party. He really did make the evening memorable for everyone.

I had the pleasure of hearing Bob play at a church right before Christmas and he did an amazing job as always. I first heard Bob when he played at a soup kitchen I volunteer at. He did wonderful there engaging the homeless and many of them voiced their delight at his playing. He has a knack for performing the right music for the right audience and situation. His range of songs is impressive and he can tailor that for any occasion. I highly recommend him if you are in need of a musician.

On Saturday nights the Community Bible Church on 6th St in Huntington Beach has an open service with prayer and word and music. The lure of a Christmas program brought me downtown on Dec 23. The evening was absolutely amazing and it was entirely because of the features singer, Bob Millspaugh. Bob played guitar and sang a wonderful list Christmas music. What made the evening so special was the intimate way Bob interacted with the audience. Throughout the night Bob told colorful stories and made very touching tributes to several members of the audience. We all had so much fun singing along with Bob on several of the audience participation songs. The highlight of the evening was clearly Bob’s incredible voice and phenomenal guitar playing. His voice is so strong with a rich timber. He has an unbelievable ability to render a song with power and fullness, then turn around to softly and delicately deliver timeless hymns. He is also an expert guitar player and is just a joy to watch on stage. Bob is the real deal and the full package performer: singer, musician, storyteller. Looking forward to seeing him perform again!!!

Bob is 100% professional and at the same time connects with a crowd to turn a concert into a intimate evening of great music. It does not matter if Bob is playing one of the songs he wrote or covering someone's music, He makes it his own. He is an amazing guitar player. He is a master at setting a mood for the evening and making you feel like he is performing in your front room among friends. I have had Bob come and do several concerts over the years and the crowd reaction was always the same. they LOVED HIM and HIS MUSIC. It does not matter if he plays Country, Pop, Blues or Gospel his ability to own the song is incredible.

I saw Bob Millspaugh perform at a hip and swank coffee shop in Newport Beach! Place was packed!, Very intimate setting! I was there with a friend and didn’t know what the event was. We were very surprised to see this level of entertainment in a local coffe shop! Bob had a warm delivery, friendly, and sounded like he should be in Nashville performing at a concert venue! I would say his style is a cross between folk, country and Americana. He performed original music as well as classic cover tunes from iconic artists like Johnny Cash, Elvis, Sinatra, James Taylor, and many more! I have an event for our company coming up so I was able to get his contact info through this site and decided to leave a review in the event someone is looking for an all pro entertainer singer guitar player! I would highly recommend Bob Millspaugh for your private party, company event, or at s club concert venue!! Top notch!

I had the great pleasure of attending an event where Bob Milllspaugh was the entertainment .. and he blew everyone away w/ his rich , deep voice, his awesome skills on the guitar! Not only was his music quite versatile, his charming performance style was a pleasure to behold. Between songs his effortless banter w/ the audience was full of good humor & wit. I highly recommend this excellent musician/raconteur for any of your events. You will not be disappointed!

I'm blessed to serve as a Regional Director for a global ministry. Over the last few years, I've booked Bob on multiple occasions because he consistently delivers exceptional performances. Bob's rich voice is matched only by his amazing skill as a guitarist. He sings with passion that captivates the entire audience.

Each time I've booked Bob for an event, I have heard nothing but glowing feedback. He arrives on time, and he understands the need to work within specific time constraints. In addition to being a gifted singer/musician, Bob has a warm personality — making him a joy to know and pleasure to work with.

In addition to ministry functions (including a Christmas party and multiple fund raising events), I've also attended a memorial service where Bob provided the music. The wife of one of my dear friends heard Bob perform years earlier, and she kept his business card because she loved his music so much. On the day of the service, I was thrilled when I learned that Bob was there to provide the music. He blessed all in attendance by singing beautifully in both English and Spanish.

One of my fondest memories of Bob will always be the day my wife hired him for a surprise birthday party for me. It was an extraordinary night. Having Bob perform a summer concert in my backyard, and being able to enjoy his God-given talent with friends and family members is something I will never forget!

If you want your event to be SPECIAL, book Bob Millspaugh!

I had a Christmas party for about 25 people this year. I wanted to do something special that evening for my guests and Bob was that perfect special something! He not only is an amazing singer and musician, but he was able to get everybody involved. We all had a wonderful time listening to Bob sing some special songs and singing along to some Christmas carols.
You can’t go wrong having Bob at any event. He is a professional in every sense of the word!

Bob was my wedding officiant and he did such a great job at my ceremony. He is very friendly and communicative throughout the planning of my wedding. My family is impressed with Bob and the music that he played at our ceremony. I am very happy that I had Bob as my officiant and I would highly recommend him.

We were introduced to Bob by a close friend of mine for the Officiant of our wedding. Bob was fantastic from the first phone call with him through the end of our event! Very professional, personable, he knew exactly what needed to be done, we were very impressed! Thank you Bob for making our ceremony go smoothly, we highly recommend you to anyone needing your services!

I'm the minister of a congregation in San Diego. We have asked Bob to come and lead music for us twice in the past few months and he has done a wonderful job both times. He is terrific and engaging! Each time that I've contacted him, he's been a joy to work with. He always has helpful suggestions and is easily accessible. Not only is he a skilled musician, but he's also a very pleasant person to be around. Each time that he's been with us, he's made a special effort to speak with members of the congregation and stayed after worship to get to know them. After the last time he was here, a frequent refrain that I heard was that "we should have him back as often as possible." We love Bob! Thanks, Bob, for your generous spirit and contagious enthusiasm.

I hired Bob to entertain for a Country Fall Festival hosted for a memory care community. Bob did really well engaging the crowd and helped many of our residents take a trip down memory lane with his classic country songs selection. His voice was as wonderful as his personality. I would definitely book him for a future event at our community and recommend him to anyone looking for some fine entertainment.

Bob performed at the assisted living facility where I work, and did such a great job with music tailored to the elderly population. I am aware he can play different songs as well, but was happy he knows his audience and adapted accordingly. he was on time, personable, and professional. This was for our Country Fair and everybody loved it!!

My family threw a fiftieth birthday and surprised me with Bob singing and playing his guitar as the entertainment. He has an exceptional voice and a knack for picking the right songs for the crowd he's playing to. He wrote the cutest birthday song for me and he played Elvis's song," Why do fools fall in love", for my husband and I to dance to:) Would highly recommend Bob for any special occasion!!

My son-in-law hired Bob as a surprise entertainer for my daughter's 50th birthday party. He has a beautiful voice. His selection of songs was perfect for her and the occasion. Definitely recommend!

I chose Bob because he responded promptly with a reasonable price, then checked out his reviews which spoke favorably, so I took a chance, not knowing him or his music, other than a couple of demo videos I viewed. I spoke with Bob before the event, he asked some questions about my wife who is having her 50th birthday, and he took my answers and wrote an original gently humorous song about my wife which had us all enjoying and laughing while he sang. He even, on the fly, made up a little tune about my son, whose birthday was also happening the same week. He had a great mix of songs. I am not exaggerating when I say that everyone at the party said they loved the singing and how good Bob was. He really takes his time to make sure everyone is having a good time, as far as the music goes! I plan to use Bob in the future, next time we hold an event at our home! Plus, he is just a great guy.... you will realize that the moment you meet him. If I could give him 10 stars, then I would have done so. If you haven't figured it out yet, I highly recommend Bob for your next event!

Bob was professional in his dedication and dependability. He had to arrange a trip to Catalina Island . He had to set up on a spot that was hard to get to with equipment . He had to coordinate at an unorganized and late starting event.. he stayed calm and took it in stride. He sang really well and brought a great atmosphere. Over the years I have listened to many CD's . I have enjoyed his new songs and the ones he has mastered for years. I have been to his coffee shop, wine bars, churches , missions , and beach side singing events.
I think any one would be impressed by Bob. I still feel the presence of God when he worships and his songs resonate a quality , not just of voice and musical ability, but of personal convictions that reveal integrity and kindness.

For my 50th birthday party we joked about when the stripper was going to show. As the night went on Bob showed up with his guitar and a happy birthday balloon. As Bob began gathering everyone together we all tried to figure out what was going on. Some joked that "the stripper was here" but Bob just laughed and said that as he sang we'd know why he was here and who sent him. Bob was sent as a birthday gift to deliver a singing telegram!! He serenading me with a personalized greeting from friends who couldn't make the party. He was amazing!! He really captured the crowds attention and was a great entertainer. He sang two songs and was the highlight of my party. Thank you for the amazing entertainment!!!

We hired Bob to sing at a retirement party for our General Manager in Anaheim. We have 110 employees and every single person loved Bob and his music. He was very personable in mentioning our retiring boss's name and played the right song for each moment. Bob played a mix of classic country, new country and excellent Johnny Cash music. We can't wait to hire him again and if your planning an occasion, any type if occasion, Bob Millspaugh is the best and a great guy to work with !!

We booked Bob for a friends 50th birthday and he was the highlight of the party. I've gotten the most wonderful feedback from all of the guests. We will definitely use Bob again for future occasions.

Bob was hired at the last minute for my Dad's Birthday party. We really enjoyed his warm and gracious personality, he was able to engage the whole party and made everyone feel a part of the celebration. Bob not only has a wonderful voice but is equally talented playing the guitar. Having him play was the highlight of our party and I would HIGHLY recommend him. His professionalism was top notch. Thank you!

I hired this musician for a surprise Mother's Day gift for my sister. She just loved it! She can't stop thanking me. He is so talented and gifted. He did an amazing job. Truly an awesome and caring person and it shows in his performance. He went beyond what was expected and created a song just for her. I highly recommend him to you. You will not regret hiring him!

This guy is the real deal and very talented. Looking forward to working with you again Bob!
