January 15, 2025This was my first experience with Gig Salad. I had some concerns with booking with an unknown process for such an important event. Joseph was extremely responsive and professional. He arrived on time and did an exceptional job! Many people gave compliments on the job he did. Highly recommend by me.

January 13, 2025Mr. Reed is an amazing musician and he was the perfect touch for my mom's retirement dinner party. He played the right music, was on time, and very professional. He is also a kind and sweet person. I 100% recommend him for any event. Thanks so much Mr. Reed!
