A wonderful addition to our corporate event!

Emily was incredible from the moment we made contact! Professional and detail-oriented, she showed up on time to the event and what especially made me feel at ease was her natural ability to feel out the event and fill in awkward silences and leave space during speeches. Her playing was beautiful and she received many compliments from our guests, and I still am getting compliments days after! I would absolutely hire Emily back for any event in the future. Thank you!!

Emily made for the perfect night!

Not even sure where to begin! Emily was professional, impassioned, and so easy to work with. She arrived quietly next to our table and began playing such beautiful music. My fiancée was absolutely blown away! Thanks for making everything perfect!
