Outstanding

Claire was the perfect addition to our annual event. She interacted well the kids at the party, playing How Far You’ll Go with them on stage. Also took a few requests from the crowd. A very relaxed and cool performer. Exactly what I was looking for. Played the 4 hours with a few short breaks. Im hoping to have her back for our 2022 event.

The perfect artist for our day!

Claire was incredible - vocally, musically, professionally. She was easy to communicate with throughout the process, went with the flow when I had new ideas, and made the day so personal for us. We couldn’t have been happier to work with her for the occasion. Would recommend Claire to anyone!!

Beautiful voice!

Claire was on time and did everything to make the event as special as I dreamed it could and would be. I had a song written for my husband by another artist for our 25th anniversary and she learned it and performed it beautifully. She also brushed up a couple of other romantic songs to round out the event. I couldn't have been more pleased with the performance,

classy music for an adults and kids party

Children's party. Great music for adults and children! She did amazing job balancing being in the background during cocktails and also engaging the kids during a Moana song and Happy Birthday.
She was also easy going, polite and professional. Thank you!
