Perfect for our event

Jarrett was the perfect person for our outdoor vineyard event. He provided the kind of calming beautiful live guitar music we wanted. He was very professional and fit his performance seamlessly into our event. If we ever have another occasion, we will hire him again in a heartbeat.

Exactly what we were looking for

Jarrett is wonderful at what he does. He played for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He did a great job setting the mood and continuing to play when the ceremony started late.
He was very responsive, professional, and easy to work with leading up to our event. He has a huge selection of music in his repertoire. I would absolutely hire him again.
