I play solo acoustic (classical) guitar and ukulele. Ceremonies and background music are my forte. Specialized genres include Popular, Classical, Spanish, Flamenco, Jazz and Hawaiian.
We enjoyed his talent. He even played our favorite songs.
Keith provided background music for a 70th birthday party. He was quick to respond with a quote and answer questions, was very reasonably priced, and was so talented on both the guitar and ukelele. I would definitely hire again!
Keith provided beautiful ukulele music for our Hawaiian themed party, and was super easy to deal with. I highly recommend Keith for your event due to his high level of professionalism and talent. Thank you!
You must hire him if you are considering. Truly amazing.
Keith performed for our club on ukulele and was just perfect for the event. Super accommodating and nailed the vibe we wanted.
Keith was on time and played at the perfect volume for hours straight ! A true professional who played an ecletic mix of perfectly apropriate songs he selected as a backdrop for our dinner. Will hire again!
Keith was simply amazing. He came on time. Had his own complete set up including speakers. He was fully prepared & ready to start. I had sent him some Bollywood songs ahead of time. He played these Bollywood songs as well as other popular western songs beautifully. I couldnt belie how well he had picked up those Bollywood songs. Brilliant. I would recommend Keith to any such function. Thanks Keith. Niru Mehta
