Couldn't Have Been Better

This was as seamless as it gets from beginning to end. Franklin was superb in every way. He will have my vote and a favorable reference from this point forward. He is personable, reliable, extremely well organized and very professional. You are all to be commended for your service and efforts.

Great musician in a challenging situation

Franklin was great… and we had a difficult situation. Our rehearsal dinner was poolside and 45 minutes into our evert, unexpectedly it started to rain so we moved into the hotel. The rain passes, and after the speeches, we moved back to poolside. It was a lot of extra work for Franklin, and we really appreciate his extra efforts!

Wow! The best

Franklin was the best ever!! Everyone at the party wanted to get his card for future events. He has the best array of songs for a birthday party. We had a 60th birthday dinner party outside. It was the perfect mix of music, and he has such a wonderful voice and guitar playing. He even stayed later for us to all dance on the patio. Without Franklin, it wouldn't have been a party!

Great Social Distancing Neighborhood Event

Franklin gave us a much needed opportunity to get neighbors together and get out of the house without exposing ourselves to COVID risk.
He was responsive, professional and did a great job.

Wedding Reception

Franklin was punctual and professional. We sought out a live performance of his before we booked and were impressed with the number and variety of songs that he can play and sing. Our wedding guests made several positive comments about him and took several of his business cards. Franklin is the man!

Outstanding !!!!

Franklin was the epitome of professionalism and played so beautifully for our dinner party wedding reception. Franklin was early to the venue and came prepared with his own equipment, and even though we had our own speaker system on site he had his on hand just in case we needed it.... which I love. When you are in wedding mode, there is a lot to be said for true peace of mind. Our guests also kept commenting throughout the night how amazing Franklin's playing was, and now as we look back on the day Franklin's music was definitely one of the major highlights of our wedding. If you are looking for a truly intimate background music moment for your adult dinner event, hire Franklin immediately. We couldn't have dreamt of a better performer to entertain our family and friends.

Great Performance

Franklin exceeded my expectations. I hired him to play a song during a surprise proposal to my girlfriend. He proved his supreme versatility by learning the song I requested and carrying out the performance right inline with what I wanted. I highly recommend him for any type of venue.

Franklin was a highlight of our wedding!

I can not say enough good things about Franklin. He was an absolute highlight of our small, intimate wedding at the Naples Beach Hotel this past weekend.

Working with Franklin prior to the event could not have been easier. It was completely stress free, he was totally pleasant and very, very quick with his responses.

He happily learned a song for our processional and did an incredible job at it. He blew everyone away at our cocktail party, to the point where we just had to ask him to stay and play for us during dinner. I wish I could have more events where he could play! He was just amazing. Everyone loved him, young and old.

Thank you so much Franklin. Everyone at our wedding made a comment at how wonderful you were and what a performance you put on.

Thank you!!!!

Laura and Matt Wood
