May 13, 2026Horatio Was an Incredible Addition to Our Event
Horatio Monroe was absolutely incredible to work with for our private event. From the very beginning, he was quick to communicate, flexible, and incredibly open to all of my ideas and requests. He arrived early to make sure everything was set up perfectly and took the time to thoroughly test his equipment before guests arrived, which gave me so much peace of mind.
His music and beautiful voice created the exact atmosphere I was hoping for during our dinner on the stage of the Tennessee Theatre - honestly, even better than I imagined. He brought such a warm, polished, and professional presence to the evening, and so many guests commented on how wonderful he was.
I’m beyond thrilled that we chose him for this event and will absolutely be booking him again for future events. Highly recommend!

What to expect
When you hire me, you’re getting a professional who shows up early, comes prepared, and brings the right energy for your event. I typically arrive an hour early for standard events and two hours early for weddings to make sure everything is set up and stress-free.
As a performer, I blend styles to match the vibe of your event, whether I’m playing solo or with my band. Live music often includes:
• Pop
• Soft rock
• Soulful acoustic covers
• Americana
• Country
For DJ sets, I’m versatile and crowd-focused, spinning a wide range of genres like:
• Top 100
• Pop
• Latin
• Dance
• Country
• R&B
• EDM
Whether you’re after relaxed background music, a heartfelt ceremony, or a packed dance floor, I tailor the sound to the moment and create an experience your guests will remember.
