January 26, 2025The star of our reception!
Having live music was really important to us for our wedding and it felt like a gift when we found Brian. He was so professional, kind, and communicative throughout the entire process. Our guests LOVED him - it was our #1 compliment from the evening! We can’t recommend Brian enough. He made our day so special for us.

October 26, 2020AMAZING JOB!
Brian drove from Nashville to play at our small backyard wedding in Milledgeville, GA. He did a great job communicating leading up to the event, and we had complete confidence in him right away. He has great energy and helped us with several transitions throughout the event. His voice is incredible and very versatile for the different types of music that we requested. He was able to play cello for our ceremony, and he immediately transitioned to singing and playing the guitar for our cocktail hour and reception. Several things went off-course during the event, but he kept rolling with the punches and kept the crowd going. Several guests took his contact information and plan to use him in the future. Don't hesitate booking Brian!

November 16, 2019Crowd Favourite - Couldn’t Have Been Better
We were already impressed by how easy and seamless scheduling was with Brian. From first contact through the day of, communications were simple and straightforward. We really didn’t need to worry about a thing.
On the day, Brian was prompt, required no assistance in getting set up and was instantly the highlight of our corporate event. He’s personable and has a voice that makes people stop and take notice. His presence added ambiance and facilitated an evening that truly felt special. We would definitely work with Brian again.

October 10, 2019INCREDIBLE
We were looking for an acoustic singer/songwriter for my companies spring event. From the first correspondence with Brian, I knew he was the right call. Very professional, concise, and event-minded. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, from helping to decide where he should be in the space to actually MC'ing on the fly. He was perfect. Amazing cover songs and a bunch of great original songs too! Great to listen to, engaging with the crowd, and he read the room really well. To be honest, initially I thought the quote was a bit high ($1k and a room), but I plan to have him at every event I host from here on out.
