June 10, 2026Amazing Violinist, Would Hire Again!
I hired Ogeebobo to play at my engagement proposal in DC, and he made the moment more perfect than I ever could have imagined. In the weeks leading up to the proposal, he was quick and easy to communicate with, which made the planning process stress-free. He came fully prepared with both of the songs I requested: "I Believe in You and Me" by Whitney Houston and "Best Part" by H.E.R. No issues whatsoever.
He traveled all the way from Maryland and still showed up right on time, ready to go. His playing was beautiful and set a genuinely romantic and emotional tone for the moment.
Overall, he was professional, talented, and easy to work with from start to finish. If you need a musician for a special event, I highly recommend him!
