December 10, 2019Carlos rocked it!
We hired Carlos for a friend and family Christmas party. From the beginning, Carlos was very responsive and professional. We chose songs from his expansive and impressive playlist and he delivered. He even mixed in some nice surprises based on the vibe of our group and everyone loved it. We also liked that Carlos played the most requested songs that we asked for in advance. His performance was top notch and he not only delivered with his English language songs, but he also did an amazing job on the Spanish language songs he performed.
We will definitely be hiring Carlos again in the near future!

June 12, 2019Carlos is the best!!
Carlos made my birthday party very special. He was able to entertain the younger to the older guests from classic rock to modern, and I do believe some country...I won't hold that against you Carlos :) My niece and her friends loved you for that. His talent and passion for what he does shows. From dinner music to getting us on our feet dancing. There were several audio engineers present as some of my guests who have done albums with some of the best, and he is right up there with them.
Responded to e-mails and requests timely, extremely professional
Everyone loved him and we will definitely use him again. You cannot go wrong hiring this guy.
Thank you, Carlos, you are the best!!

April 18, 2019Epic!
Carlos was an amazing attribute to our event. He played while our guests settled in and after dinner he was taking requests and nailed all of them. Our guests, which were our top clients and prospects, were raving about how much they loved Carlos. He was pure entertainment. I hope we can use him again in the future!

February 2, 2019Very talented and very professional
We had the pleasure of listening to the music of Carlos Naranjo during my sister's birthday celebration. Carlos was a joy to work with, and was a professional through and through. He responded to all my emails in a timely manner prior to the event and asked appropriate questions to make sure we were on the same page. He provided me with a very comprehensive song list to choose from and made sure he knows of any other arrangements needed prior to the event. On the day of the event, Carlos arrived early to allow for time to set up. He was very respectful towards my family and he even dressed up according to the theme of our party (50's!). My family thoroughly enjoyed his music and he even included songs he thought would be a hit given our theme, and he was right! My brother-in-law was so amazed of how well he played Johnny Cash hits.
All in all, Carlos added the much needed boost to our party and I could not have asked for more. Thank you again, Carlos. I am now your fan!
