Kimberlye was a pleasure to have at our son's baptism party. She was on time, set up quickly and played an amazing set of cover's. She was able to learn song's prior to the party and performed them with grace. I would recommend having Kimberlye play to whoever is looking for a wonderful performer and memory maker. Thanks again Kimberlye Gold!

Great job playing for our 60's party.

Kimberlye Gold worked very hard to make sure she added the right vibe to our 60's party, including singing the birthday boy and me an adaptation of one of her own songs. She made sure she was here in plenty of time, to deal with traffic, navigating, and setting up. She then gave a very professional and fun performance. I expected

I am thrilled to get such a positive response! Kate Lipman and her "birthday boy" husband David could not have been more congenial hosts and her guests were wonderful and SO appreciative. It was an absolute pleasure doing business with her from start to finish and I had a wonderful experience entertaining her guests at their beautiful home. I hope to do business with them in the future and thank them and Gig Salad for such a fantastic experience.

Great Experience

Kimberlye Gold came to our event well-prepared. I had asked her to stay very flexible because we were trying a new type of event in a space with unknown accoustics. She did an excellent job providing a repertoire that had the right "feel" , she sounds beautiful, and was lovely to work with.
