Great Voice. Very Professional. Highly Recommend

I picked Josh to serenade my girlfriend as part of my proposal. He did not disappoint. Josh has a great voice and is a truly talented performer. He is a quick communicator and was always responsive to my questions and fully accommodated all my special requests. He is a professional through and through and I would not hesitate recommending him for even the most important events to my friends and family. Thanks again Josh.

Josh fit right into our intimate destination wedding

We had four short months to plan our destination wedding in Bend, OR; a state and city we had never even visited. My husband was concerned about the decision of whom to hire as our Musician, seeing as we would not hear them in person before hand. We stewed over whom to hire but once we saw Josh's videos online we were sold. His taste in music, skill, and sound were exactly what we had been looking for.

We arranged pricing and the song list. Josh was very reasonable and open to all of our song suggestions and wants.

On the day of the wedding, despite the travel time required on his part, Josh was on time and ready to go. He played a long list of songs for the Ceremony and the Reception. Every tune was right on point to what we had requested for genre and feel.

We were all extremely impressed with his talents and professionalism. His attire fit the wedding and his demeanor meshed right in with our families. In fact, both sides thought he was a relative from the other! We had to keep saying, "We found him online!"

We are so very glad to have found and hired Josh for our wedding, and encourage you to do the same! You will not be disappointed! :)

Set list

As a songwriter I have plenty of songs of my own, but I love to work with my clients to find the best songs, whether original or covers, that will fit the occasion.

Influences and inspiration

The artists that I love most have an appreciation for classical music, especially Bach, but when it comes to what my sound is like, I would say an acoustic Coldplay.
