A warm welcome

I am so glad I found Katherine on Gigsalad. I reached out to her in my search for a harpist to perform at my grandmother's celebration of life gathering. Not only did she provide a peaceful and elegant presence to the room, she was incredibly responsive to my questions leading up to the event and accommodating of my requests for songs that aligned with both my grandmother's favorite music and the celebratory tone we hoped to have at the event. Between her warm demeanor, thoughtful selection of songs, and effortless talent, she helped make a difficult day feel anchored in the warmth, comfort, and joy my family and I had hoped for.

Katherine was absolutely amazing!

I booked Katherine for our daughter’s 15th birthday celebration. We had a dinner party with 26 people, and it was an intimate, elegant event. Booking Katherine was the icing on the cake, as she tied my vision together in hosting a formal gathering. I couldn’t have been any more impressed with her services!
From the very beginning, Katherine’s communication was great! She responded to every email that I sent to her almost immediately. I requested specific pieces/themes to be played, and boy did she deliver! She is extremely talented and performed every song beautifully. She left our guests in awe, and was even willing to stay after her scheduled time to continue to play (Our guests LOVED her that they asked for her to play some more 😊 ).
Katherine was extremely professional and such a joy to be around. Her being part of our special event is something that no one will ever forget. Her presence is so welcoming and we were so blessed to have her play for us! She is such a talented musician!
If you need a harpist for your next event, book Katherine!! I promise, it will be a memorable event for you and your guests!
