Julian Catford

Beautiful variety of songs - just right for the occasion

Julian’ performance at our event was perfect. He was very easy to work with, arrived on time, and most important, he is so incredibly talented. His playing is effortless, elegant, and he is the epitome of professional. Julian has a large repertoire from classical standards to Spanish guitar music (my favorite). If that weren’t enough, he also kindly stepped in when we had audio trouble for something unrelated to his playing. Dozens people at our small event asked me who he was and said how much they enjoyed his lovely guitar playing. Exactly what we’d hoped for. A huge thank you to Julian for making our event so lovely.

Julian played during our wedding and was amazing to work with. He was communicative, informative, helpful, and punctual throughout the entire experience. He pulls from a wide array of styles and an extended catalogue of songs and plays all of it at an incredibly high level. His consultation was exceptional as he walked us through the pacing and structure of our ceremony and offered suggestions based on his experience as an event performer. This was really helpful as it helped us shape our ceremony around his advice. Everything came together great as a result. He was flexible as we made our choices of songs and genres we wanted represented throughout the ceremony. He was also super friendly. We would definitely recommend Julian for your next event.

Julian recently played at the annual garden party for our donors and couldn't have been more perfect! He was so great to work with, professional, timely, flexible, and attentive to our needs. He is a talented musician and chose all the right music to entertain our guests but to also blend into the background for optimal ambiance. I couldn't be happier with our choice!

Mr. Catford played for our daughter's wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He graciously learned and played the songs she and the groom requested for the ceremony. Words are insufficient for how great he played--it was beautiful! Because the venue was new to him, he arrived earlier than contracted and played lovely selections that calmed our vendors while they prepared. He selected appropriate music for the cocktail hour as well. He is talented, respectful, and very professional. Our guests really enjoyed the music; we highly recommend him--he will not disappoint!
