September 24, 2018Tom was AMAZING & exactly what we were looking for!
We had a celebration of life event at all for 3 hours with about 40+ people there. My grandmother loved all things Irish so we wanted to have some nice background music during the event. Tom was AMAZING! He played a variety of instruments, lots of songs, sound level was perfect for what we were looking for and very nice and professional.
I would HIGHLY recommend him for any event! We are already planning to book him next year for what would be her 90th bday celebration and we will have him do the story-telling/singing for that. He understood that only the singing would be appropriate for our event, and it was!!
