October 22, 2025Professional, Easy to work with, Perfect for our Event!
From the get-go Eric was quick to communicate, highly responsive and extremely professional. This professionalism continued throughout his set-up and performance and truly sets him apart from other musicians we've worked with in the past. We hired Eric to provide some background music for a client party our firm hosted, and he truly enhanced the comfortable atmosphere and entertained with some amazing crowd pleasers. Eric anticipated and intrinsically understood our needs and delivered with incredible talent! I can't recommend him enough.

Eric Ray performs for himself. He is “in-charge.” He does not read locals or care about the customer. He does his thing & isn’t that kind to recurring guests.

Hello Molly,
I’m very sorry to hear you felt this way. I’ve never received this reaction to any of my performances. If you review my more than 60 exclusively 5-Star reviews I think you’ll find I’ve consistently received positive feedback. I’m not sure what gave you your impression, but I wish you would have approached me to voice your opinion. I hope I get an opportunity to perform at another event that you’re in the audience to change your opinion. Thank you for your candid feedback! Eric Ray
