October 1, 2025Wonderful performance!
We recently had Cultural Fire Events for Native American Day celebration at our Nature Center, and Jacob was fantastic! His performance was informational, interactive and an amazing display of Native American culture.
Aside from the performance itself, Jacob was very timely in his responses to our communication and very respectful.
I would highly recommend this group!

October 11, 2025A beautiful celebration for my beloved Pops
Jacob's beautiful, soul-filled voice was such a meaningful part of the Celebration of Life I held for my Pops. It was so touching - like a call and connection to the elders, great spirit, nature, and the beyond.
Jacob was also organized, communicative, and on time.
I highly recommend Jacob and thank him for helping to make a beautiful celebration for my beloved Pops.
