Great Job, Chris!

Chris played at the graveside for my mother’s funeral. He was professional, sincere, and all were touched by his playing.

First Class Service

I hired Chris for a memorial service. The church double booked, and a wedding was still leaving while we were arriving. Chris was able to pivot, and made the right choice of waiting until everyone at the wedding left, out of respect. His performance was the perfect touch we needed for the event. He was very professional from his attire, to his focus. Let’s be honest. His prices blow everyone else out of the water! Use Chris and thank me later!
