August 17, 2026Amazing for 2026 Wedding!
Working with Gabe was a great experience from start to finish. We hired him to play during our cocktail hour/part of our wedding reception. From initially hiring him, requesting custom songs, adjusting things along the way, and even flexibility the day of the wedding, Gabe was easy to work with. Not only was he an absolute hit at the wedding and amazingly talented all around, he was very communicative and willing to emcee for much of the evening as well. We had no need for a DJ while he was playing. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an acoustic musician for their wedding!!

We had Gabe out at our home for Wine tasting parting. He’s a professional artist with a deep list of country and current songs. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a solo artist that can take over the room!

September 14, 2026Incredible music!
Gabe was incredible at our wedding reception. He had the perfect playlist all ready for the event and learned a song we requested so we could do our first dance to it. People all throughout the night kept asking who the singer was because they loved his voice. Would highly recommend!

March 10, 2026Crowd favorite every year!
Gabe is such a gem. He's always fun and easy to work with. We bring him back year after year for Bauman's Farm & Garden events! Not only is he crazy talented, but he's also personable with everyone. Every year we get people coming back to the farm for his performances alone, and it makes sense. As long as he'll have us, we'll happily hire Gabe again and again.
Hired as: Singing Guitarist
